I disagree. Your post is long but boils down to "I don't think it will work." Im fine if you choose to do it to humor us and would appreciate it.

It boils down to a collection of reasonable thoughts and requests for a good protest and while I am participating through the sheer audacity that I purchase something every day like the people doing shein hauls makes me cringe it does not change my normal economic activity and therefore doesn't change the companies you hope to take notice bottom line.

It's about having people actually take some time to have critical thoughts about their actions and the ones we want to do to make changes.

Your dismissal is exactly how this fails to enact change.

It's "I don't think it will work immediately, for my specific goals."

My comment was an indication of what I think your post boils down to.

maybe something got lost in the mix but my reply was to Krauerking. I do find mbins threads get hard to follow after awhile though.

I named you specifically, that's why you got a notification to my comment.

ah. yeah. I see. I did not realize it was a correction. I guess I could write it that way but its like I think your comment is what you think. Feels busy and unnatural.
