While I'm not in favor of boycotting culture, I do feel like boycotting products and services that incorporate it.

So I try to buy boycotted cultural products secondhand whenever possible.

This way, I can legally obtain culture, but it prevents American companies from making any additional profits. (Naturally, I avoid using Amazon[.]com when making these purchases.)

The problem then arises when an American artist performs in the country where I live.

Naturally, experiential entertainment cannot be recorded, meaning it cannot be purchased secondhand. This issue determines whether a boycott is feasible based on how individual artists respond to corruption in the United States.

Separately, I also try to avoid cultural dependency on social media platforms such as YouTube and x[.]com by prioritizing domestic alternatives (such as Nico Nico Douga and mixi2).
