Yeah, I vow, right now, to habitually destroy the display screens for any place doing this. Who’s with me? How long can they squeeze before we fuckin explode? I say it’s already too much. Little LCD screens or whatever they’re gonna use are probably dirt cheap, but if we do it long enough, destroy enough of their property, maybe it won’t be worth it.
I know this is wishful thinking. But this kind of shit cannot be tolerated. There is no way this will be a “race to the bottom” as the asshole in the article said. No fuckin way. It will be a steady climb, uniform, just like everything else under this tyrant capitalism we suffer through.
Oat milk is a great fucking example of this. Oat milk is absurdly expensive for what it is. And it always has been. If anything, the price has gone up as more producers entered the market. The opposite should’ve been happening. Instead, every company artificially keeps their prices high, together. I’m in NYC, so the effect is amplified here, but you can’t find a carton of oat milk for under $5.50. Most anre in the $7 range. Oats and water, thickener, preservatives, sometimes sugar. That’s all oat milk is. But most oat milk companies are selling it as a boutique product, riding the “clean eating” wave that jacked up “organic” food prices, brought about the deceptive labeling, and gouged us all.
It’s long past riot time, people. We aren’t a player in capitalism that has any agency. We are literally the lowest rung of the ladder. The entire population. At the whim of a handful of assholes. Their system runs on us, exploiting us for all it can, and we continue on with it because it has us by the throat. But we can stop working for it. And if we stop working, it stops immediately. We are very powerful, but we just don’t use this nuclear option. But it’s been time to press that button for decades.

Destroy display screens? Really brother? We can surely take more direct action.
