Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
  7. This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
  8. All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

I boycott! Oddly enough I just ended a ~15 year Walmart boycott for our family. Began it after becoming aware of their tactics to deliberately strangle local businesses and keep employees below full-time hours to avoid giving them benefits, etc.

Been avoiding them out of habit for so long...started boycotting Amazon, Target, etc. recently...and realized that while I have nothing positive to say about Walmart, they're not even cracking the list of shittiest companies anymore. Because every fucking one else sunk below their standards.

Cool stuff! Boycott shit, people, help out! Most of y'all need the money way more than the stuff these days anyway lol!
