Not only has H-E-B not backed down on DEI as a corporation, but in the individual stores you will see us celebrating each other. Whether itโs black history pride posters made by partners in my store or the corporate slack channel devoted to pride and allies or the womenโs inclusion network channel, we are proud to stand up for whatโs right.

Whats the end goal of not buying on a certain date? What exactly are we trying to change or get done? Without that stated, I don’t see how this will do anything.

Itโs the last Friday of the month. Which means payday for many and an easy date to remember. But also a day when many people have to pay bills or risk penalties. Not everyone gives a 3-5 day waiting period for payments. Do what you can, but also take care of yourselves. Weโre fighting for a better life for all, donโt risk your home or car or whatever if thatโs the situation youโre in. Keep yourself healthy and safe, because we sure as hell ainโt happy right now.

From another comment; sorry I don’t have the original author’s name:
“I know a lot of us are angry and resentful and feel powerless right now. You want to know something that we can all do? I know this will sound crazy, but . . . stop buying crap. Just stop. Call it a strike, an economic protest, whatever you want. Either donโt engage with the economy or engage with it as little as possible.
If money is the thing that runs America, make the money listen.
How can this be done? Lie flat and face the wall. Quiet quit. Cancel your subscriptions. Only buy things that are used and buy them from people, not corporations. Avoid consuming media in general, but if you must, donโt stream it. Own a hard copy, preferably used. Understand that participating in social media is just giving billionaires money and influence. If you go out into the real world, spend as little money as you can.
If you’re bored, what now? Do what people did before weaponized propaganda poisoned everyoneโs minds. Play games. Talk with friends. Go for a walk. Start a hobby. Read books. Enjoy art. Or even better, make art.
Consider it a national strike . . . on consumption. Instead of seizing the means of production, why not stop buying what it produces.”

I canโt afford to not buy groceries. My roommates wonโt feed me if I buy nothing to contribute to the household. And if I donโt buy any groceries what am I supposed to eat?
