Its also just like. Its not there yet.
It cant make a full wine glass.
Interestingly, when I try and upload it as a png, lemmy doesn't like it.
its a png with a transparent background of a finger pointing at a pregnancy test.
Not sure why its being blocked.
I had an idea for a Lemmy community called meme conversation. No words. Just posts and comments via memes. Not sure it really works though.
I would fucking live to prepare that for you, but I'm utterly fucked in terms of my time right now. I took on a second job (technically a third, because I already had two full time commitments) to prepare to leave the country.
I'll book mark this and do my best to get something together for you.
No modern boycotts have been shown to be effective.
The last genuinely effective "boycott" was the bds movement focused on SA, which created real pressure.
BDS movements have been effective because they go well above and beyond boycotts, and in some ways, its easier to target "all" of a national economy than it is to single out singular companies. That action also took place in a world of reduced globalization.
More broadly we should all be considering the relevance of individual versus collective action. There was a real propaganda effort to drive peoples thinking to be focused on individual action as a means for creating social change. Be the change, recycling, changing your habits, etc. It shifted the focus from the responsibility being on those creating the damage to consumers, and it had a range of outcomes.
One of the most important is that individual action, while basically meaningless, acts as an analgesic towards further action. Its a way to create a sense of relief that something has been "done" while nothing meaningful has changed. If this psychological pain reliever prevents the escalation to the use of force or more extreme actions, its done its job to protect the system. There are very good reasons why the system accepts individual actions, are supported almost exclusively over collective or more extreme behavior.
