There’s a site called Public Square that is a dog whistle for like minded MAGA Nazis to find businesses that share their fascistic beliefs. I propose everyone find their local Nazi businesses and let folks know on mainstream review sites where their money should go instead. I’m getting some friends in on it too. Obligatory “make a throwaway account with a fake email to do so” notice here.
it’s particularly annoying because a “parallel economy” is something socialists and anarchists have advocated for many decades as a way to weaken reliance on corporate power structures and enhance mutual aide networks.
seeing these “anti-woke” groups co-opting terminology that’s traditionally associated with underdog/resistance movements and inverting their purpose to exclusively benefit reactionary in-groups is just… ick.
