Im already trying my best to move off any services tied to any oligarch at Trumps inauguration.

I just bought a kindle but planning on donating it and moving to Kobo.

Side hobby to learn to pirate safely. Im now using any alternate website to Amazon.

We have the power of voice with our wallets.

Linux mint cinnamon. I tested sims4 a few months ago. Ran fine. And surprisingly I didnt need to repurchase from steam, somehow I linked my ea account.

Sometimes games crash but not often for me. That's when I tweak the Proton version.

As an American, agree. Its not anyone's fault outside the US that my fellow countrymen are fooled and cheering on a buffoon.

I really do think Trump is a Putin puppet put here to kill us Americans and then get a one way ticket to Russia. But the resistance in smaller and tight knit countries should go on. Stay strong.

Maybe they can teach them to maintain the Linux wireless drivers.

Im really excited to see mainstream games patching for Linux. :)

Yeah that's a great point. Soon as I saw the companies at the Inauguration I deleted social media platforms owned by them and switched to DuckDuckGo/Firefox. Ive been on Linux Mint for some time.

Protesting with our wallets and going against the whole consumerism culture of these oligarchs is definitely the way to go. :)

I honestly don't think these one off protests will force any change personally. They are a start to network and I think we should shift protests to be places to centralize people to a method of communication.

But the only thing that would force the hand of change is a general strike for weeks/months like Georgia is doing.

One decentralized protest organizer is starting a method of collecting sign ups to organize such a protest. Im not sure who the original organizer is but id rather give trust that something will come of it.

Personally, I think I will see if I can be more involved in my local state politics and volunteering. Might see if I can run for local office or if that is feasible.
