3. Another thing we can do on youtube

Is to search or subscribe to ABC and Disney Channel postings.

Then when they come through on your feed, go to the three dots ellipses in the upper right corner. Click. THEN ON The drop down choices click on NOT INTERESTED. haha.
Don't forget to unsubscribe when you are done with your fun.

This morning I saw an ABC Terry Moran interview of Rahm Emmanuel there. That's what made me say yuck and click on NOT INTERESTED.

8. Better than that

In the same three dot menu is "Don't recommend channel". YouTube must keep track of numbers. That will sting.

Keep up the good work, cancel Disney+, Hulu, and ABC, and pledge to boycott upcoming releases including Zootopia 2 and Avatar 3.

Where does he get these statistics?

I will say I keep an eye on things, in the store, the super, the onlines, and things look incredibly slow from what they were even last winter. Perishables are backing up, clearance items abound (interesting that many of them are spicy). I was in a big box building supply last week and I'd swear they're planning to close it. Maybe it's all just typical of pre-recession. They stop replenishment and conserve cash.

6. I just saw an unsourced screenshot of a tweet on Blue Sky claiming same.

I asked for a source and they gave me a link to a Pakistan online news article that cited the unsourced tweet. I’m with you and remain skeptical about the accuracy of the amount.

11. I love the boycott and hope it succeeds.

I know it’s happening on a global scale, and definitely not just among Black tic-toc. It’s the accuracy of the amount that I question. Who determined this number?

And you honestly never know where unsourced material comes from, what with trolls and bots and AI infiltrating our various feeds. I’m a librarian and want to see the citations, dammit!

9. It's Reasonably Accurate

From Wednesday open to Friday close, Disney stock went down $1.85.
On a touch over 1.8 billion shares, that's around $3.5 billion in lost value.
It's not a cash loss, only an equity reduction, but that does affect the balance sheet, even if not the P&L.

My math skills leave much to be desired, which is why I want a source.

Will be Trumpists.

This is the easiest vote with your wallet protest that one can engage in - So why would any Democrat refuse?
