Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.
Rules:
-
Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
-
Respect one another.
-
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
-
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.
Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

Change where you buy shit from. Instead of going to Amazon, go to something more local. Instead of taking the car and buying more gas take the bike. Instead of buying something new, repair something you already have or buy something scond hand. Etc.
that'd be cool. you think its going to happen?
What? People ditching crap like Amazon? Yes it’s altready happening because people release that it’s just crap anyway and the local alternatives are better. In my area they even deliver faster ….
so the amazon stocks are falling? or do you mean the new temu customers? can you show me numbers that indicate ppl stop buying shit?
You realise that there is more than crap dropshippers like Amazon, Temu, Aliexpress etc? Due to Trump being elected there is an increase amount of people who prefer to buy European, so in NL/BE more people are choosing something like Bol.com (Since Amazon's introduction in NL also has dropshippers on the platform). This sub hass been growing a lot and there have been European stores who have also been noting what products are European and what not. At the same time news outlets in Europe have been covering the influx of interest of people who are willing to skip on American products. https://www.reddit.com/r/BuyFromEU/comments/1jjjxuc/how_much_has_this_sub_grown_in_the_last_few_months/
Yes a lot of people still order from Amazon and from Temu. Heck Temu is one of the most downloaded apps in multiple European countries. I don't have exact numbers and the lack of transparancy of American companies doesn't help.
american companies never help. they are the problem.
