While it’s difficult to avoid the asshats* (and “there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism” notwithstanding), given Amazon Ireland has launched this week, just remember that every euro you pay them goes toward fucking billionaire Jeff Bezos who is helping Trump dismantle democracy in the US and elsewhere. So please do your best to shop locally – or with smaller EU shops – and avoid Amazon as much as you can.

* I really need to get the media for my Mastodon server off of AWS. Another bloody hassle I don’t need right now. *smdh*

[The New Yorker]: Why I Left the Washington Post.

Owner Jeff Bezos wants to transform the Opinions section of the paper, where I worked for forty years. After the publisher killed my column disagreeing with that move—it appears here in full—I decided to quit. By Ruth Marcus, Wednesday, March 12, 2025

The New Yorker · Why Ruth Marcus Left the Washington PostBy Ruth Marcus

"#Boycott and resist institutions/companies that have continually aligned with the interests of #Trump:

- Get off #Twitter/X and find different EV cars. If you want an electric car, buy something else. Elon #Musk is wreaking havoc.
- Don’t buy from #Amazon and unsubscribe from The #WashingtonPost. #JeffBezos owns both The Washington Post and much of Amazon. He dictates WAPO editorial content in favor of the oligarchy and funds Trump interests.
- Boycott #AirBnB! #JoeGebbia, co-founder of Air B&B, has joined #DOGE.
- Unsubscribe from the #LATimes! #PatrickSoon-Shiong owns the LA Times, and dictates editorial decisions that support the slide to fascism.

The image features a parody of an IKEA advertisement. At the top, there is the iconic blue and yellow IKEA logo. Below the logo, the text "Oligarkchöp" is written in a font similar to IKEA's product names. The image humorously depicts a wooden guillotine, shown both assembled and in a flat-pack form, mimicking the style of IKEA's furniture assembly illustrations.

Free Speech
Freedom selon Jeff Bezos
Liquider les journalistes qui ne lui conviennent pas, censurer les articles qui ne sont pas à sa dévotion
Il n'y aura bientôt plus que des Larbins au Washington Post.

The Guardian · Top Washington Post columnist quits after piece critical of Bezos is scrappedBy Marina Dunbar

In a thorough confirmation of #TimothySnyder's argument that #WashingtonPost's new "personal liberties & free market" editorial policy is fundamentally dehumanizing because of how it subjugates humans to fictional notions, #WaPo calls the Trump stock market crash "sustained heavy losses" — words usually used to describe casualties of #war. On behalf of everyone who was killed by #Russia in #Ukraine, fuck you #JeffBezos.
