How do you boycott a network if you already don't watch any other shows on it?

[–] reddig33@lemmy.world 11 points 45 minutes ago

By not posting links to CBS News on Lemmy. Don’t give them your clicks.

[–] Klox@lemmy.world 21 points 1 hour ago

I’m not 85 years old so I’ve been unintentionally boycotting CBS for years now

You people can't do anything right.

Boycott Paramount AND all their assets.

I haven't watched broadcast TV in over ten years I think the last thing I watched was the 2014 Winter Olympics.

The only way I can currently get broadcast TV is through Famelack.

[–] DahGangalang@infosec.pub 2 points 26 minutes ago

Neat, I'd never heard of Framelack.

Appreciate the indirect pointer in that direction!

I boycott ALL of it and have since 1999.

That was the year we got rid of cable TV and the TV altogether.

Cut the cord, it's liberating.

I'm already years ahead of you on that one

The fact that businesses sell or are allowed to be taken over by bad actors is a direct failure of capitalism. Companies operating with no regards to reputation is only beneficial when operating as service providers in a monopoly. Why so many allow mergers and buyouts from the worst of society are common truly speaks to the comically stupid system where stockholders would some how prefer their investment be overwritten by a comic book villain who's going to use the company for villain shit to just not doing that... is it that the stockholders aren't like us, that it's CEOs chasing a bonus, that relationships we're not provvy to overwrite business interests, or all of the above?
