This right here.

I'm doing "elbows up". No money I have knowingly flows to an American company or individual. Period. And I do my due diligence: I try to find the goods that are American but branded locally.

Is it inconvenient? Fuck yes! But you know what's more inconvenient? Funding the economy of the nation that is actively attacking mine.

    And another fantastic point! Absolutely well said my friend!

    And I’ll add-

    Not enough people walk the walk at all anymore. If the endorphins are received, and the clout is favorable enough, all it takes are words, because words are all someone needs nowadays to convince others. All that’s required is to just shout into the void that you hate a thing. Then, just Hoover up the validation of your peers, and you’re free to then continue consuming said thing.

    When people grow some balls and lean what strength of conviction is, things will change. But right now, Toutube knows they own these clowns and they don’t have the balls to walk away.
