Adblock, Firefox, don’t buy new phones, etc etc etc
Individually? Nothing. Therefore: Organise, organise, organise
The solution is simple, but not easy: Stop using their products. A mass exodus of their users will quickly take away their power.
Stop using all Alphabet/Google products. Other search engines, email providers, streaming video, and even cell phone operating systems exist. Switch to them.
Stop using all Meta products. Other social networks and messaging applications exist. Switch to them.
Stop buying from Amazon and watching their streams. Other online stores and streaming media exists. Switch to them.
Keep going for every company who has a billionaire CEO, owner, or shareholder. Their fortunes will evaporate quickly.

3 minute scene from planet earth series with seals chasing a great white shark away
Do what you can. A little more each day if it gets easier. Understand we can’t fight all the worlds evils alone, but we aren’t alone so whatever your fight is helps all of us.
I push for opensource, self hosting, being self sufficient, unionizing (at work, and for tenets), forming coops (worker, community, housing, and even producer coops), do mutual aid, support charities through donations sure but also volunteering. I also try to buy less, if you need it you need it, but if you don’t then why support corps like Walmart or Amazon for them to take those profits to undermine us.
Again it’s not about perfection or even self actualization, it’s just every time we can empower ourselves and others we can shift the power balance.
People keep answering by trying to tell you to consume your way out of this.
There is only one way, organize, unionize and vote!
Call Luigi?
Assuming Luigi Mangione is responsible for the murder of that CEO strips him of his presumption of innocence. Maybe refer to the gunman from the video as “The Adjuster” like people did before Mangione was accused until the trial is complete.
That’s a great insight! However, there’s only one true Luigi…
Luigi did his part. One luigi per ceo not one luigi for all the ceos
While I don’t expect more of this person, going the Batman/Jesus route would be helpful.
Edit: Although, I prefer the V for Vendetta method where we all anonymously fight back and take back over.
Batman is a rich man.
Instead of spending 200$ a month on subscriptions, spend 300$ on a used PC, take a weekend to learn how to selfhost/pirate and then pay 5$ for a trustworthy vpn like mullvad. If you’re in the EU, send data deletion requests to every big company you’ve had an account with. Start buying things off local retailers, not Amazon. Buy computers/phones either second hand or from smaller/more trustworthy manufacturers…
And most importantly. NEVER. STOP. COMPLAINING. ABOUT. IT. The moment the complaints stop is the moment that bullshit is accepted…
Not sure if this is really accessible for everyone.
It’s probably easy to underestimate how difficult setting up and managing services can be.
It’s not hard and there’s plenty of people, like myself, that are willing to help you. Let’s work together.
It may not be “hard”, yet it’s just not practically possible for most people.
It is practically possible. You just have to put in a small amount of effort. Anyone saying it’s too hard has given up without trying.
You don’t need to do everything I mentioned, doing one of those things is more than enough… You don’t need to self host, I know it’s hard, I’m just putting it out there as an option :>
There are IPTV options out there too. Their apps usually work with whatever device you have. Just sign up and get the app.
Who are those two in the picture? Are we supposed to know them?
that’s edited photo, original is just as derpy. it’s altman and nadella
btw this is very much a “heartwarming - the worst people you know are fighting” sitution
The first thing you can do is not buy anything that makes the tech billionaires more money. All they care about is money: don’t give them any if you can help it.
for example:
get off of facebook (easy). don’t buy tesla or use starlink (easy). don’t buy on amazon (difficult but doable). Don’t upgrade your iphone, and don’t buy new apple products (moderate). Don’t use CHATGPT (easy).
Use Linux and open source software. Contribute to open source projects. Buy hardware second hand. Use non corporate social media. Buy local. Get your stuff fixed instead of throwing it away. Avoid data harvesting where possible.
Its as if the linux hardliners were right all along. Almost as if people laughing about our cautionary tales stand there holding the bag now.
I‘m not saying „we told you so“ but…
Getting off Amazon was easier than I thought. Has been years now, and I only needed to order through a friend once, when I needed a specialty item I could find nowhere else. Most small shops have comfortable checkout systems now and short delivery times. And there’s eBay, which afaik takes a smaller cut from third parties than Amazon.
I use chatgpt a lot, what is the best non-billionaire funded llm? I really need to change to one that doesn’t worsen the world…
Try hosting locally DeepSync R1, for me the results are similar to ChatGPT without needing to send any into on the internet.
LM Studio is a good start.
Don’t you need a fast GPU to do so?
Thanks I’m trying it now!
While deepseek is billionaire funded it still should be better if run locally I don’t think Foss llms are at that level yet
Thanks, another person mentioned it, I’m trying it now, hopefully it suits my needs.
I’d add not using Amazon Prime, Amazon Web Services and other Amazon services. Not using X, being critical of SpaceX. Also, stop advertising these things, stop telling your friends about them, maybe even stop talking about them altogether. I think for some strange reason sometimes bad press is better than no press.
My company: “we’re going all in on the cloud! Specifically AWS” proceeds to pay them millions per year.
or use starlinkI don’t know if I’d call that easy for some people in very remote areas. Easy for me, easy for you, but not necessarily easy in some cases. Here’s hoping a good competitor can get to those places.The thread is not called “Do this one thing, or give up if you can’t”
But it will make me mildly uncomfortable! /s
An individual can do very little.
Which is why we organize, strike, and practice solidarity, together.
If you want to help, look for left movements in your area. Food Not Bombs for example.
Find out what National union would support your profession and go help them out.
Shoot them
Pull a Luigi
I’m not condoning violence but I’m kind of surprised no one have yet taken an RPG shot at elons jet or something. Even blowing it up empty would send a message I guess.
I mean someone actually shot at drump so it can’t be that complicated.
I mean someone actually shot at drump so it can’t be that complicated.
- Firstly it wasn’t an RPG. I don’t think you realize how complicated it is to get your hands on a functional RPG. Not to mention, if you want to blow up Musk’s aircraft, you probably want a portable surface-to-air missile like a Stinger. Good luck getting one of those too.
- Secondly the dude missed Trump, so it is a bit complicated. You need some sniper skills he obviously didn’t have, and a lot of preparation - and probably a good dose of luck - to set yourself up for a shot and not get caught.
- Thirdly, the dude was wasted. So anybody thinking about fixing America’s problems that way should feel ready to lay down his life for the cause. People usually talk the talk but rarely walk that kind of walk.
“and not get caught”
At some point some US citizens will have to choose how they plan to die exactly, because doing nothing in the face of Nazis will lead to them dying anyway.
