What is Buy Nothing June?
Well, since June is a month that is irrevocably compromised, and the US economic system measures success by one thing (money) the goal is simple, to stop all money in motion on that month.
Other than your required monthly payments, make no transactions.
Not to friendly, neutral, or hostile businesses.
Just... don't spend money.
Stock up your fridge and pantry, fill up your gas tanks, make whatever durable goods purchases you need this month.
It's not a boycott. It's simply a quiet walk away from the Pride Economic Engine.
You don't even need to talk about it in tracked social media. Enough of us slowly pass this along word of mouth to just... not spend money and it is hard to be accused of whatever thought crime they try to come up with.
You could even if you wanted to be public about it, just call it a preparedness exercise for disasters, testing if you can survive economically on your own for one month.
When it's done you can celebrate by buying all the shit you need to normalize your lifestyle again in the first 4 days of July.
In celebration of a kind of pride that has been demonized for far too long.
Last 3 obits I've seen have had variations of "short illness" or "sudden illness" as they try to de-amplify "died suddenly."
Anyone else seeing this?
Remember that global cooperation between the State and Corporations happens EVERY June.
You should celebrate this...
By dropping your spending in that month to ZERO.
Front-load all your food shopping at the end of May.
Buy your durable goods the month before or after.
Cancel your online subscriptions to music/movies/whatever for the month of June.
Don't go to restaurants in June.
Take some online classes, read some books, focus on personal development, hit the gym.
Resume everything on July 1.
Enough people create a hole in June purchasing and people will start to notice.
Was in line for some food today at a local place. Shoulder surfing the people on their phones, reading their twitter, facebook, and Truth Social feeds... wait, what was that last?

I'm trying to build a proper timeline but search results are understandably polluted.
Realtime openai searches can't get here fast enough.
