Just passing along this flyer. I hope you find it interesting. Voting with your dollar seems pretty liberal to me, but I'll take part.

This feels backwards in so many ways, why is it withholding buying and not withholding labor? the real power would seem to be in the labor not in the buying.

Second why are small buisnesses exempt, they too are Capitalist, small scale capitalists does not exempt them.

Third this is very short sighted, as you are declaring that it would only be one day, assuming it happens, so all that is happening is shopping habbits are being distributed through the week. Agian this is a big IF it happens as I am skeptical it would happen.

Honestly im not even aware of any small businesses i could go to? The only thing i buy is groceries pretty much these days. No such thing as a small business grocery store where i am.

I live in what should be considered "farm country" and our local grocery store has the worst produce. It blew my mind when I visited them for the first time. I'm glad there's a decent farmers market one town over.

I was going to ask for the alternative. Using fun bucks I don't have?

Theft is an option, although the consequences are likely not worth the risk

[-] JaredLevi@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 week ago

I feel the same way!

Well, that'll be pretty easy since I basically only have enough money to live and haven't had extra money to buy something non-essential more than like once a year.

But I agree. This looks like some lib garbage that they themselves will pretend they did.
