thoughts on today’s “economic boycott”

i do not know if you guys came across a post shared around today (Feb 28) about a one day long economic boycott. the details on the flyer clarify that you shouldn’t shop from amazon, target or walmart (and don’t get fast food and gas). they also say small businesses are okay to shop from as long as you use cash…

i am surprised at how wide spread this is, but i honestly don’t see the point of it. what’s the purpose of a one day boycott? it seems so unorganized and based on nothing? don’t get me wrong i don’t think people should shop from those corporations or anything but this is all just so pointless it feels like.

i’ve seen people argue that this is liberals taking a baby step to apply marxist ideology… whatever that means.
