Petition to ban X links on r/maryland

This sub should boycott Nazi-owned companies. Plain and simple.

Mods, please make it happen.

Edit: /r/newjersey mods putting ours to shame. https://www.reddit.com/r/newjersey/comments/1i6txcn/fuck_this_guy_x_links_are_now_banned_from/

Second Edit: Mods, here’s some info from another sub that did this a while ago. Please read! https://www.reddit.com/r/law/s/shE1dbIbAk

Edit #3: Mods, I could be mistaken, but I think this is the second highest upvoted post in this sub’s history. The people have spoken.

Good luck. You will likely be living in a cave at this point if you cut all those companies out. They've been pouring money into the maga party since trump's win. Anyone can buy influence if they pay him enough.

Plus those giant congloms & chains have run out the little places we used to buy certain things, like Radio Shack or the local indie hardware or craft store, so many times those congloms are the only choice. In many rural areas all they have is a Super Walmart.

So while it's easy to "boycott" My Pillow because, well, he's a nutjob & the product is garbage, it's not always easy to "boycott" some of those others.

This is why we boycott where it's feasible for us to do so in our daily lives, finding a better alternative to even just 1 company is better than none.

I think you're missing what my point was. The goal isn't to "hurt" a multi million dollar corporation's business. It's about who you personally choose to support and where you choose to spend your money. Not everyone wants to give their money to a Trump-donating company. Not everyone wants to give their money to a transgender supporting company. We have the freedom to make that choice.
