entire rationale

I’m not sure if you’re sealioning—or just not reading the full page. Here are some other quotes from it about Amazon, specifically in regards to boycott rationale:

• “and Amazon, for funding this administration to secure their own corporate tax cuts”
• “Amazon holds a monopolistic position in the market”
• “contributes to dangerous working conditions for its employees and drivers”

Already did: You’re focusing on a minor detail rather than the bigger picture, and I think that’s kind of silly given the stakes here.

Great tip. Getting things used is a great way to give in a little bit less to capitalist wealth pumps.

Clearly.

That’s your takeaway?

Specifically, Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday, boycott Target, Amazon (including Whole Foods), and Home Depot even harder than usual: https://weaintbuyingit.com/

Copypasta of my comment from another thread: Trump has apparently just recently realized (as of the election results around the U.S.) that he’s hugely unpopular and that it threatens his power / his grip on the Republicans. And that it stems in part from how he has ignored the affordability issue ever since he got elected.

Then someone like Mamdani waltzes into the picture and absolutely cleans up when running on affordability… and not just “uh yeah I will totally lower the price of eggs” either. So Trump sees an opportunity to cozy up to this affordability guy in the hopes that some of the voter goodwill that Mamdani earned on that topic rubs off on Trump. He’s desperate not to lose his grip on power.

She is such a tool. So pleased with herself, too.

Pretty good. But now you can almost see the desperation bleeding through the orange makeup. I think he’s beginning to realize that the moral arc of the universe is actually not so long—and bends toward comeuppance.

You’re right that he has no moral compass—but I think that means any movement he makes on affordability can only ever be skin-deep. He’d just as soon sell out the entire populace if he gets a better offer in regards to retaining power.

One thing I haven’t seen discussed in regards to this meeting is that Trump has apparently just recently realized (as of the election results around the U.S.) that he’s hugely unpopular and that it threatens his power / his grip on the Republicans. And that it stems in part from how he has ignored the affordability issue ever since he got elected.

The term you’re looking for is social murder.

Not to mention 3/4 of yourself.

It’s okay. I like your version of reality better… It’s really ridiculous that we can’t disable PRs there.

Issues, yes. It’s not possible to disable PRs though.

Was there a particular part of that you had in mind?

I didn’t watch a ton of the debates, but I didn’t see what you’re talking about. She seemed to be able to answer the questions just fine, although of course not at Mamdani level. Do you have any examples off the top of your head where she flubbed answers?

If you’re holding her to Mamdani campaign standards, you’re going to be disappointed no matter the candidate.

Let’s let her cook a bit and then decide how she performed.
