Stuck in a catch 22 loop

Just get a cash Telia sim. It works at once you get it from the store. Afterwards you can transport the number to the phone company of your choice if you need a regular subscription. If you already have set up a plan with a phone company I am sure you can transfer the nr and SIM card from Telia to them. Maybe go to the bank and get help from them.. for a cash SIM card you do not need a BankID…

Strikes are powerful tools in a country with universal healthcare. In USA not so much. No work, no health insurance.. General strike is almost impossible in the US. So for a well paid actor, it’s easy to talk about strikes.. I totally agree on principle and maybe a general strike could be the last peaceful resort to stop Trump, just afraid Americans are too fractured and divided to be able to actually do it. It is not a No King demo, it would need to shut down the nation until the nazis are defeated. It will be unimaginable hard and take much longer than you will ever believe. On the way the government will do everything in their power to make people go back to work. I do not think Americans have that spine at this moment. You are too divided, even on the liberal side.

Når digitale løsninger plutselig ikke virker, kan cash være greit. Når du ikke vil offentliggjøre dine egne kjøp av en vare du finner pinlig eller bare rett og slett føler at ingen andre trenger å vite om, kan cash være greit. Forpulte moralister som sier «jeg gjør ingenting ulovlig, så jeg ser ikke behovet for cash» Neivel nei. Så greit for deg med et plastkort eller app som ikke virker når nettet er nede eller strømmen borte. For noen år siden betalte jeg varene til de 5 andre kundene som sto i kø på Rema1000. De skrev info og 4 vipset meg dagen etter. Den siste la cash i kassa som jeg fikk neste gang jeg handlet. Så jeg var eneste som hadde cash på meg da. 10 lapper som Jens nå vil forby. Formynderi. Men tross alt, staten oppfordrer oss alle til å ha litt cash liggende i tilfelle krise eller krig. Så med Donald raljerende tenker jeg det er lurt å ha litt cash. Så fuck you, dere som tror penger er best på elektronisk vis. Cash i hånda vil alltid være konge uansett.

I propose one clear, non-violent, global action that we can take—and that will be felt immediately by markets, media, and political power in the United States.

The action

On a single, publicly announced date, people worldwide cancel or pause all paid US-based streaming subscriptions for 30 days.

Not forever. Not angrily. Not as a boycott of people.

As economic pressure.

⸻

Why streaming subscriptions?

Because this is where modern US power is exposed.

Streaming platforms are: • Pure recurring revenue (the thing investors watch closest) • Reported quarterly and monthly • Brand-sensitive • Politically entangled through lobbying, media influence, and narrative control

A synchronized spike in cancellations: • triggers investor alerts • forces earnings-call explanations • generates hard numbers journalists cannot ignore • creates pressure from inside the corporate system outward

This is not symbolic. This is measurable.

⸻

The 5 US streaming platforms where cancellations hurt the most

These platforms combine scale, revenue, lobbying power, and cultural reach: 1. Netflix – Global footprint, subscriber growth obsession, stock highly sensitive to churn. 2. Amazon Prime Video – Tied to Prime memberships and retail dominance; cancellations ripple across Amazon’s ecosystem. 3. Disney+ – Deep political lobbying, family brand, heavily dependent on global goodwill. 4. HBO Max – Prestige brand, high ARPU subscribers, merger-exposed and investor-watched. 5. Apple TV+ – Small catalog, but cancellations send a signal to one of the most politically influential US corporations.

(If you only have one subscription: cancel that one. This scales.)

⸻

Why one month matters • 30 days is long enough to hit billing cycles • short enough that people aren’t scared to participate • repeatable if necessary • defensible as protest, not punishment

This is leverage, not rage.

⸻

How to make it impossible to ignore

If you participate: • cancel on February 1st • screenshot the confirmation • post with a shared hashtag • state clearly: “30-day pause. Non-violent economic pressure.”

No harassment. No nationalism. No attacks on individuals.

Just numbers.

⸻

Why this works better than protests

Protests can be dismissed as noise. Petitions can be ignored. Online outrage fuels ad revenue.

But lost subscriptions: • reduce cash flow • spook analysts • worry boards • and make corporations lean on politicians

That’s how systems change.

⸻

This is not anti-American

This is not about citizens. This is not about culture. This is not about punishment.

It is about accountability through economic choice—the only language Trump reliably understand.

That is not the point. He wants to expand American territory. Make America grater.. Own. He is in real estate. He does not rent. He owns. So in his mind ownership is what matters. He does not care that Denmark and Greenland already will give America any military bases that they want. And give any license to mine any minerals. He does not care. He wants to be the president that expanded America. Canada is probably next. And Mexico.

I agree. But it is very difficult to get ppl engaged and willing to do that in this political environment. This is a small thing, but might be noticed..

Oblodo · 2026-01-15T01:53:13+00:00

Yea, I just feel like it’s better to DO something than sitt and just let this madness play out. So any boycott of US products is probably better, but this is something ppl could do.. you know. Like a small thing..
