    Boycotting isn’t about changing the world, we all know that a couple thousand people choosing to not participate is a drop in the bucket that wont really change much in the short term.

    Its not about that.

    Its about putting your foot on the ground and making a personal commited choice to say ‘No.’ To not tolerate being censored and treated like stupid animals by soulless megacorps who just want to squeeze you dry.

    Its about setting boundaries for yourself and what you are willing to take from who/what. Its about truly commuting to not being a mindless consumer removed boy driven by popular trends.

    My choice to delete my reddit accounts and not come crawling back to daddy spez isn’t much on its own, but its not nothing either. If enough people put their foot down and make a true effort to say no, it might just mean something in the end. Even if it doesn’t change anything in the long term, it has a personal affect on me, I know that I am strong enough to say ‘no’ and mean it indefinitely That is the true spirit of a protest.
