Who said that was the alternative? You fucking clowns...
"oh so other capitalists might still be capitalists? That must mean you want to suck Bezos' dick!"
Again. Clown. That's you.
You never gave any alternative, and still haven't. It's starting to look like you don't have one.
They made one comment. It's a bit early to start drawing conclusions.
If you want an alternative, how about not giving it all to anyone? How about judging the company on their values and practices rather than their size?
I beg to differ. People who start with that level of aggression combined with that lack of actual content rarely bring solutions to the table.
I'm all for reducing consumption (pretty easy for me, because I hate buying things), but people still need things from time to time. I'm also all for judging a company by their values, but I would like to point out that you're the first one to mention size.
The original post was talking about preferring local business, which is often correlated with size but sometimes not. The comment I responded to was suggesting local business be rejected by virtue of being a business, which I didn't find particularly helpful without a suggestion for alternatives.
