  • Facebook
  • Apple
  • All of the defence contractors
  • Every telecom I've ever used apart from EE and Giffgaff
  • YouTube
  • Any website that tries to circumvent privacy rules with fuckery
  • Governments like the UK that insist prohition is a better alternative to harm reduction but continue to profit from poisons like alcohol.
  • Any company that makes devices with proprietary interfaces e.g. WiFi printers, BT routers, Apple in general, Tesla, battery power tool manufacturers.
  • The list goes on...

  • Oil refineries
  • concrete factories
  • mercenaries
  • energy producers that still don't use renewables exclusively
  • private hospital corporations
  • cruises companies
  • unsustainable agrarian producers

All of these are literally killing children. Not directly and immediately but according to the IPCC report we have 1,5 to 2 years time to get to ZERO emissions, else we got some tipping points and risk turning earth into a Venus-like planet.

How does one boycott the government? Would I cut up my ID and declare myself a sovereign citizen? As much as I agree with the sentiment, I don't think it's as easy as that haha
