Every use, regardless of how you personally justify it, is an action in support of their practices. Every time you use their services, you support union busting. You support wage-slave labour practices. You support the production of waste by buying cheap and convenient products you donโ€™t need. You are literally holding them up and allowing them to do what they do.

Amazon is not an essential service. One does not need an alternative to a non essential service. One simply doesn't care about the harm done enough to put in any effort to avoid these companies.

This argument is tiring, and in support of these business' by pretending like they are unavoidable. They aren't.
