    Wouldn’t you know it, I literally just saw an ml pulling that in another thread from someone who (I assume) posts on a “buy from EU not china/USA” type community (which is valid, support more local stuff as much as possible) and “claims to be anti capitalist”

    Legit, how is one expected to live if you don’t buy anything?

      Do what you can… Barter, trade, be communal. Every dollar not spent is an act of resistance. Every dollar you earn but don’t pay tax on is an act of resistance (also illegal). Every pirated film or song. Every dollar handed to a homeless person. Take pride in what you don’t need rather than what you can accumulate.

        Does taking the money from people who have enough disposable cash (or not enough sense) to Doordash and then spending it on 9mm rounds count?
