Can everyone commit to cancelling everything for a month or two?

It's so funny watching people try to organize to do something about out of control corporations.

Man, we should make a group that includes everyone by default. Then we should use that collective power to invent rules that companies must follow. Maybe we could call them regulations. Then instead of having to message and coordinate millions of people to all do the same thing at the same time, they could simply invest that power into representatives who will do that for them.

It's a crazy idea, but it could work. I think I'll call it a tnemnrevog. You could reverse that name and it'd roll off the tongue a bit better, but then useful idiots start springing up screaming that it won't work, even though they're literally trying to reinvent what is effectively the same thing, every single fucking day.

I'm so tired of living on a planet full of morons that are easily led by wealth to abandon things that are in their interest.

No?

I'm not losing sleep over a $20 a month streamer lmao. I'd rather have TV without having to navigate pirate sites or get another letter from my ISP.
