Election fraud.

I do not think it is saying we need to give up fighting.

I think people like me need to hear these messages because we have conservative friends and family we haven’t given up because we think that once things get absurd enough, they will finally see the error of their ways.

We still believe they are good people, but they are clearly not.

There’s something really wrong with them, and it is not within our power to remedy.

What we can do instead, is redirect our time and our energy towards others in our communities that are ready to flight.

I know they are brainwashed.

I don’t even hate her.

I feel bad for her because she’s legitimately fucked without our help, but I cannot continue helping her when she cannot even acknowledge that both my life and her own life are so much harder because of her vote.

She cannot even say she is sorry because she legitimately believes she has done no wrong.

She’s blowing up my phone to ask us to please continue walking her dog but I cannot do that anymore.

The mask has fallen off her face.

Just went through that with an elderly neighbor recently.

She broke her foot and is in poor health, so we were walking her dog twice a day cause we are nice like that. She was always praising us for being such good people and a godsend to her.

One day, she made a comment that she thought Trump was doing a great job and I gently tried to explain to her that he was ruining our lives and countless others out there.

I was hoping she would have a moment of introspection, but no. She just immediately went on about the democrats, how we get offended too easily, and how she thinks I swear too much but she doesn’t hold it against me.

Everything except: “I’m sorry. I didn’t realize.”

Told her we no longer feel comfortable walking get dog.

Cue the waterworks and the “What about me? I can’t walk!”

It’s not worth engaging with these people. There is something broken in their brains.

I used to buy a ton of Amazon stuff. Mostly art supplies, pet supplies, clothes, novelties I didn’t need.

One day, I was browsing Reddit and I was like-- “what is this boycott thing all about?” and then I started by not ordering for one whole day!

Then one whole week!

Then one whole month!

Anyway, I ended up cancelling my Prime subscription, deleting my Amazon account completely, and cancelling my Prime Store credit card.

Then at work, for Valentine’s Day, we each received a $200 dollar Amazon gift card as an employee appreciation gift.

I spoke up and said that I would prefer to receive cash or nothing at all because my values did not align with Amazon-- which caused many of my coworkers to decline theirs as well.

It was so perplexing to leadership, that they decided that going forward they are just going to give us a $200 cash bonus on our paychecks

So anyways, that’s the impact one of these “pointless” boycott posts had on me.
