    Think of it more as exercise. It takes a bit for people to get rolling. If we can take down tesla, then we learn we can do more. Revolution doesn’t start at the finish line.

      This exactly, and more people need to understand it. A one day boycott of Amazon doesn’t do much to Amazon, especially since many people will simply defer spending to the next day. What it does do is give a simple goal for people to participate who haven’t done this sort of thing before. Then you expand it to longer time periods and more targets.

        The current Amazon boycott is 7 days and isn’t over until the 14th, BTW.
