You do NOT need to buy new clothes or holiday decor this week. You do NOT need to buy new, period!

What if you challenged yourself not to buy anything new for the rest of the year—and nothing at ALL during the national economic blackout from today thru December 2?

The easiest, most accessible way that anyone can fight back against the billionaire class is to BUY SECONDHAND.

Every used item you buy - or give away for free - is a rebellion against the hoarders at the top. Refuse to feed the machine.

@sabrinaweb71@sociale.network I've already addressed this in other comments - those who have been preparing for the total economic blackout are not even buying groceries this week. But otherwise yes this does not apply to groceries (although there are ways we can reduce our dependence on food corporations, like shopping at farmers markets).
