What small contribution can we do to hurt oligarchy and Trump [View all]

As a citizen in red Kansas, I am limited in what I can do. Generally. I tend to write/focus on senators and Congressmen outside my state to get anything, if at all.

Myself and my wife have decided to do our best to not support the Tech Bros and MAGA oligarchy. We fully know that there are limitations. I may be supporting MAGA without even my knowledge. Are my retirement funds invested in MAGA companies? So, the first thing we noticed is, we have to do away with Amazon Prime membership. Yes. I will miss a few movies and football but, maybe, I can just pay for a few games. Will see. We are exploring ditching Walmart and going for Target. I hope more experienced DUers, who are up with this, to advice what we can avoid. I know I cannot influence much but I want to do my best.
