I generally agree, but I'm not going to knowingly give money to ghouls who are trying to make my existence worse. I'm not at all against using [redacted] but I do think the idea that boycotts are worthless isn't correct. Boycotts have been successful in the past, it just requires some solidarity and that part is what has been missing from a lot of the wider calls recently. I do think we could impact their profits. But we can do both this and sabo-[redacted]

With android you can avoid the google play store so they don't get a cut of ad revenue. I don't know whether Google gets a cut of phones they didn't manufacture just because Android is on it, considering Android is open source and the manufacturers are responsible for updates.

It's absolutely a disgrace how the Dems handled it after an entire year of Trump trying to pretend it just didn't exist or was just a cold and using that in their campaign. Then when it became convenient for them they began to pretend it was over.

What status quo was there when Dems allow the rollback of everything even when they're in power without even the suggestion of a fight? Unless you mean the status quo of everything continually getting worse under either party's admin.

And, remember, it almost didn't even work the second time. Biden was the only candidate running for the nomination poised to lose to Trump and he was forced on us, seemingly as punishment for us demanding healthcare. They were willing to throw 2020 and would have lost had the unpredictable and extraordinary circumstances of Covid-19 not occurred, along with Trump's absolutely bungled response. Covid-19 was the sole event that propelled Biden to the white house. And then he was exactly as ineffective and terrible as all leftists predicted and we got Trump back because of it.
