Disney owns a giant share of the media ecosystem. Time to cancel some services and let them know why.
I kind of feel bad for Americans who were/are very invested in American culture. A lot of people survive on consumerism, so now they have to decide if they want to change their habits (choose ethics and morality) or continue doing their thing (because they’re in denial/need a distraction). It’s not looking good…
There’s zero chance this turns Americans away from consumerism. Hell, even in threads calling for boycotts most people are saying they’re going to still consume Disney products, they just won’t pay for it.
#BoycottDisney
I am personally very proud of you.
Ha, I’ve been boycotting these companies for years.
Arrrrrrrrrrr
Time for boycott level two: don’t even steal it.
I just filed a complaint to ABC. Free speech is important especially in todays world.
History channel?! Where the hell do you expect me to watch pawn stars and American pickers knowing ripping people off like the assholes they are. If that ain’t some real American history.
Boycotts on their own are not effective. They are more of a sprinkling addition to a full fledged program that includes more heavy duty tactics.
Cancelled my Disney plus account.
-Yes, I get the irony of using that gif…
glad i dont have any of these the only streaming service needed is vlc and qbitorrent
Sonarr, Radarr, Sabnzbd, and your choice of an indexer = fully automated pirate ship 🦜 🏴☠️
Yarr
Cancelled.
sailing the high seas these days. fuck them all.
Just canceled their discount deal and Alien Earth sucks!
I liked alien earth so far. But how much they cram in Disney shit is so obscene. I wouldn’t pay for it tho.
I don’t personally think cancelling subscriptions will do anything, they honestly do not care because they have millions of other people subscribed to them.
I honestly hate the hive mind of “we have to cancel our subscriptions to boycott”, let people enjoy their shows.
No idea what protesting is hey. One person who writes a complaint equals many others who don’t do it but have the same reasons to boycott. Look it up.
It can have a limited impact on the short term but I agree that it won’t do much. I don’t recall a “boycott giant corporations movements” that changed anything recently. Money comes first, and a mega merger to become even more monopolistic is much more important than a handful of angry customers. We’re at the age of enshittification and fascism. See Reddit as an example. Or Imgur. Now the same thing is happening but with another giant media.
It’s like people boycotting oil companies because gas prices are too high. They inevitably fail because there’s still plenty of people addicted to oil and gas willing to pay anything to get it.
Hell, in the current climate, cancelling or boycotting over this could put you on a list of people disagreeing with the government, and get you harassed or imprisoned.
I know people on this service are big advocates for pirating and shit like that to not give the big corporations any money. I’ve learned that rather quickly in the short amount of time I’ve been here.
Cannot save this post for some reason. Comment for future reference.
mf’s use lemmy and still don’t pirate every piece of media. smh my head…
