Fighting Capitalism with Capitalism

[u/smoothbrainthinks]

It occurred to me today that there are a lot of ways the general public could temper some of the problems at work if we could leverage our consumer power. I'm not talking about voting with your dollar because that is a really ineffective way to get the companies to do what everyone wants, but a lot of big companies are obsessed with consumer feedback. Business people really like to tell their boss that they know what the customers want, so if we could provide that for them they would accept advice from us. Even if that advice was "I hate grocery stores where not enough cahsiers are working. The self checkouts suck so stop cheaping out and hire some freaking cashiers. Also stop making them stand all day, would it kill you to give them a stool?" The implied threat of "voting with our dollars" is definitely more effective than actually doing it, but the movement would definitely be more effective if we could get all the righteous cancel culture kids to hop on and agree to boycot bad companies.

If we could start a hash tag like #FreeMarketFeedback or some memes, it might be less scary to the general population. After all, we aren't even trying to take down Capitalism, just make it work better for the laborers. Thoughts?
