Yes, I can see how you might not want to boycott a company if you're worried about them not making money because of it.
Oh please, that's not even close to what I said. I just don't want them to cancel a show I like and you're all acting like I'm swinging from Bezos' dick. You're all rabid.
The world is on fire and you're worried about your favorite TV show? Come on dude. These boycotts will not work if we can't even sacrifice the bare minimum. And yes, a TV show is the bare minimum.
No, you come on. You're are misrepresenting what I actually said. If you actually read my post, you'll see that I plan to participate in the boycott regardless. I made a throwaway comment about how it would be "mildly inconvenient" that I'd miss the opening, but also that I would do it regardless.
So what, I'm not even allowed to acknowledge that Prime has stuff I'm interested in? I have to boycott it, and deny that it holds any value whatsoever?
That's bullshit. It's entirely possible to both acknowledge that there are decent Amazon produced shows AND think that the company is evil as fuck and want to boycott them.
And here you've encountered first hand why these protests don't work.
