Good luck boycotting Stripe
I'm trying to find out a list of companies using stripe and I think it would be easier to list ones not using it... What I'm getting is basically any time I spend money online, and sometimes in person, they get a cut
Yeah pretty much. As a payment intermediary they're actually really good. Top of class one could argue.
The executive's politics aside, trying to boycott them means boycotting all their users. Good luck with that.
I have to pay a parking fine one through stripe. I would have happily boycott that.
I just glanced at this quickly, and saw Shopify Payments, which is actually run on Stripe
My sister in law was boycotting PayPal so she switched to Venmo.
Isn't venmo owned by PayPal for the past 10y?
Yes that was what made it ironic.
Cool I'll boycott them by moving into a cave underground.
so basically he didnt actually do anything boycott worthy. he just had a bunch of perpetually online lefties and righties throwing a tantrum on twitter
Dunno why you're getting down voted.
I visited Israel 10-odd years ago for work and I loved it. Beautiful country and people... if you ignore all the politics. As with the US.
What I hated while there was the demonisation of everything Palestinian. It's like a cult: if you don't agree, you're one of them. (Get fucked).
It's the timing.
Israel is currently engaged in a genocide. Some guy talking about how much they love all the beautiful things about Germany in 1942 would get down voted to hell too.
these beautiful people are doing a genocide lol
I have family in Israel and have been there several times. I liked it there. I liked how all the signs were trilingual and the food was excessively good. I don’t however approve of the Israeli government or how they’ve gone about this conflict.
Does this make me a bad person in other peoples eyes?
There is no conflict, only genocide.
Me paying my taxes has me certainly conflicted. Does that count?
Timing matters. I have family in Austria. I like a lot of things about Austria and I also don't approve of a lot of things the government does and did.
If someone were to have voiced that sentiment loudly in 1942, they'd probably be an asshole.
Yeah,I had this discussion in other subs but let's say that I was less successful
Boycotting them is basically impossible anyway.
So you'd rather use the platform run by treacherous robbers called PayPal ? So we can't use Stripe (ok fine) & we can't use PayPal, ok any suggestions ? Cuz I got one GNU-Taler
