I've already cut ties with Walmart, and will be drastically diverting purchases away from Amazon whenever possible.
Once you get it in your mind that "yeah, I'm not supporting Nazis", it's really easy to reject anything and everything American.
And for anything that isn't made in Canada or by a Canadian company, I'm happy to support our allies from around the world, too.
Depending where you are it's honestly not hard to avoid amazon.
I've cancelled prime in January and since then, I found that every thing I needed and got there for convenience, I got from elsewhere for the same if not less and with the same kind of shipping speed.
Hell, just this week I was setting up my old vita for my son and found I needed a replacement charger. I found it from a used game store in Ontario, came to me in 2 days.
I'm ashamed of being lazy these past few years and using them so much when I could have supported local businesses instead...
I'll add - dumped Amazon a bit ago and wish I'd done it sooner. Finding lots of other online stores and getting more quality products. Haven't shopped at Walmart in decades. Trying to walk the walk more and it's improving my qol.
