I use the Amazon website to search for book details that I then use to order from my local independent bookstore.

Are they required to protest outside their facility? Would PR pressure be more effective than shouting at their building and employers?Why not walk through the highest foot traffic areas of the city with their signs? They don't even have to shout slogans. They don't have to block traffic. Increase the # of eyes on their plight. Make themselves more difficult to target with freezing water and raw sewage. Organize a billboard in the highest vehicle trafficked area? Just spitballing.

@SimplySarah "They don't even have to shout slogans. They don't have to block traffic." Yes, they do.

Clearly, they are in a location Amazon does not like them being in; otherwise Amazon would not be attacking them with water and sewage.

#UnionStrong

A meme featuring a scene from The Simpsons. In the top half, a cartoon character resembling a bus driver looks back while driving and says, "DON'T MAKE ME TAP THE SIGN." In the bottom half, a close-up of a hand pointing to a white sign reads: "strikes are supposed to be disruptive." The image humorously emphasizes the intended disruptive nature of strikes in a straightforward and satirical manner.

I JUST CANCELLED MY AMAZON PRIME MEMBERSHIP.

Bezos needs us more than we need him, and it's time he learned that.

Last year, I let my prime membership expire and my spending went down 80%. Two months ago, I closed my Amazon account entirely. Bezos will never get another dollar from me.
