I still support the "Don't buy anything" days but this is my feelings to it (slrpnk.net)

Oh I didn't refuse to participate, and I still encourage any effort we can manage, but these "don't buy anything on X days" concepts are themselves just deeply flawed. Don't buy anything for a week? Alright so either I just don't eat for a week, or I'm only offsetting purchases to before and after. It still doesn't make a dent. If your protest doesn't hurt the corpos, they don't care. Showing we can organize is great, but iterating on this format can't be the end goal.
