Amazon Targeted for Viral Economic Blackout
An organization called the People’s Union USA has kicked off a week-long boycott against shopping on Amazon. This “economic blackout” aims to make a powerful statement that challenges the status quo. The organizers behind the movement believe that Amazon’s practices harm small businesses and exploit its employees.
The call for the boycott extends beyond just Amazon itself; the union is also encouraging people to steer clear of other companies owned by Amazon, such as Ring, Whole Foods, and Prime Video. Last week, this grassroots effort gained traction when it urged consumers to avoid major chains for 24 hours, sparking widespread attention.
As of now, Amazon has remained silent on the matter, but the movement continues to gain momentum as more people join in solidarity. The goal is to raise awareness about the impact of big corporations and the ultra-wealthy on the lives of ordinary working Americans.
Although Amazon has not publicly responded to the boycott, the growing support behind this movement demonstrates a growing concern about the influence of major corporations on our economy. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
