I know our inclination is to buy this weekend from companies touting lower prices (Amazon, Target & Walmart).
Resist the urge. The only way to force greedy corps to lower prices to acceptable levels, paying living wages, & end discriminatory practices is to withhold your money.

Not buying anything for the next week, except groceries and possibly "small business Saturday".

196 million people shop over Thanksgiving weekend.
If even just a fraction of us refuse to bankroll companies enabling harm, the message will be impossible to ignore. Other companies will think twice before they cave.
Skip Target, Amazon, and Home Depot.
Protect your community.

I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings.
These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate.
Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.

The oligarchs are building a massive censorship & state media operation.
Through purchase and control of social media, legacy media, and other mediums, the billionaires are creating an empire of perpetual and favorable propaganda—distorting our very realities—all to protect their wealth and power.

Jeff Bezos systematically dismantled the Washington Post. Now, he’s looking to purchase Condé Nast and CNBC.
Paramount & CBS have bent the knee.
Tech billionaires are manipulating their platforms’ algorithms to favor fascists.
NPR & PBS have been defunded.
This is state propaganda in the making.

Don't give in to the orange paper tiger fuck turd. He is weak and fragile, not strong.
Fear has destroyed more lives than any tyrant...but only when people let it. This is the moment to master yours...stand firm... and resist like your future depends on it...because it does. You're scared. History won't give a shit that you were scared. There are no other acceptable options. None.

How are we supposed to resist peacefully, when they are using violence against us? How does peaceful protest and resistance work when those who seek to control us can use force?

1/2 Protesters at the front make noise. But those on the perimeter protect the truth.
We need people filming from the edges—tracking police, documenting violence, watching for agitators.
It’s safer, it’s strategic, and it keeps the story honest.

A message that people should start spreading around: don’t pivot to or practice violence in any way! Don’t even hint at! This regime is looking for any excuse to go after people. Lead with nonviolence by proclaiming it, practice it! This will help protect you from a pretexted tyranny.
In 2011 "Why Civil Resistance Works" Chenoweth & Stephan studied 323 major campaigns 1900–2006
•NON-VIOLENT 53% success
•Violent 26% success
•NON-VIOLENCE 2x as effective
•Especially when they reached 3.5% population participation
•NON-VIOLENCE led to more democratic outcomes

How long until the average person will only want to go out in public with others in a group who are armed? I'm all for nonviolent resistance, but what's worse: defending yourself from false arrest or getting sent to El Salvador? That's a bleak calculus.

Every allied government should not recognize Trump and his administration. Do not allow him into their countries. In fact they should expel our ambassadors and only communicate with democracy minded officials, such as Josh Shapiro, AOC, Chris Murphy, Jasmine Crockett Bernie Sanders.
