I don't need a company to outwardly support causes I believe in...I just need them to keep their opinions to themselves,
If the CEO of some company supports ideas different from me in general public policy, no biggie. That's part of life. Not everyone agrees with you.
But these companies have gone full on "hate AussieRock and everyone like him" and on that front, frick them.

You almost nailed it. I don’t care if a corporation holds different positions on societal norms or politics and uses corporate media platforms to push their BS…..just don’t expect those employees with different opinions to be silenced or else. If a corporation makes a decision to participate in politics and “social justice” endeavors then the same courtesy should be given to employees with different opinions.

I found a local bank not affiliated with any of the national or regional banks. Guy who started it is a nice, conservative man trying to keep local dollars in our community. Maybe there is a bank like this in your area.

RUMBLE is the alternative to youtube.
Is this true?
The only time I ever used Rumble was a link my crazy conspiracy theory uncle had me watch about QAnon. Never realized they were an alternative to YouTube

If he’s got a big boy online banking site, I could just use him.

I used to think this was crazy talk. Now I think it's 100% imperative. I don't need a company to outwardly support causes I believe in...I just need them to keep their opinions to themselves, make good products and sell them to me at a fair price. They also can't financially support people who hate me. That's now a complete deal breaker. Do that, I'm good. But I'm done pretending it makes me above it all to be able to look past a person's stated politics and just enjoy their work FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK ALL THAT! "Why can't you just forget politics and go enjoy that new Mark Ruffalo movie?!?" Nah...done. Why should I have to leave my politics at the door to support some a-hole who refuses to leave theirs at the door first? I'm not beholden to spend money at the movies, or buy music, etc. It's not the birthright of entertainers and athletes to get my money, so as long as they continue to openly tell me how much they hate me, they can continue to go frick themselves and I'll continue to stop paying them anything.
This is why I refuse to watch 1883

I think they have online banking but I don't use it personally.

Twitter is failing because they are against the values of the real America!

I switched everything to fidelity. They pay all atm fees instead of setting up their own. Having my retirement /checking/savings in one place is nice. Moving money to my brokerage is instant too bc they know I've got it.

banking comes first to mind as I would love to find a really good small business bank that doesn't care what color or sexual persuasion anybody is.
Not sure of their stance on all the other woke ideologies but was glad to see this in the WSJ the day after the supreme court ruling on the mandates.
quote:
We were ready, but we’re glad we didn’t have to implement it,” said Guy T. Williams, chief executive of Gulf Coast Bank & Trust Co., a Louisiana-based bank that employs 750 people.
Mr. Williams said he worried his organization could lose some employees if they didn’t want to comply. He also said he didn’t understand why the mandate applied only to companies with more than 100 employees.

Dan Bongino said it best, we need to establish a conservative economy.
The far-left is opposed to everything that is good about America and us.
But yet we buy their products, we go to their shows, we watch their movies, we buy their music.
The far-left mocks us, the laugh at us and call us all kinds of names...but yet we continue to support them.
They smile on TV and portray themselves as good Americans yet they hate us.
Well, we got to hit them where it hurts most and that is in the pocket-book.
Stop using Amazon for all your purchases.
This is gonna be a hard thing to do, initially.
Buy local first. This supports your local economy and keeps your dollars circulating in your local economy.
Buying local supports the businesses and people who are supporting you and your job/business. If they don't have the item you need, usually your local
business can procure what you want/need next day or in a few days.
If there is an item you can't procure locally, go directly to the vendors website and purchase directly from them. Amazon has basically become 'the middle-man' anyway.
Books, go with something like BarnesandNoble, Books-a-Million, etc.
If you are a person of faith, purchase your Bibles, supplies, books, literature etc from other sources than Amazon.
Drop Youtube and go with Bitchute, Rumble or Odyssey. Youtube muzzles free speech, is owned by google and has become an echo chamber for the far-left.
Dump twitter, Gab, Parler, Gettr are starting to emerge as good alternatives.
Get rid of Fake-book, your life will be so much better without this garbage dump. Same as with twitter.
Lots of other things we can do to defund and defeat the far-left.
Best thing is to go local.
