Rich people love when idiots think that they can change the world by doing purely individualistic stuff. Even if you convince hundreds of people it wont change their margins by even 0.001%. Believing that markets have built in course correction that cant be completely dominated and steered by rich people is the biggest lie in the world.
Do individualistic stuff anyways, because every improvement matters and it might make you happy. But know that it requires more than that to make a significant difference.
Here’s the thing… there’s more of us than there are of them. That’s why they’re so desperate to keep our collective attention elsewhere and to cause division or people might recognize just how strong they could be collectively.
Even collectively we might not have billions of dollars, but it doesn’t take billions to crater a company or an industry. Just takes not paying into the system; it’ll collapse on its own.
I get you can’t boycott everything because you need food and water to survive, but people aren’t helpless.
Not everyone’s wallet has that kind of pull.
Poor excuse.
It’s just facts.

Also every movement starts small. It might not matter much on an individual level but you gotta start somewhere.
Works well here in Europe. You’ve been blinded by Trump & Co propaganda.
The wealth gap is getting worse at an exponential rate. How long until we all bust out the guillotines?
