We had originally planned to put up a page about consumer boycotts against
corporations, but we decided that was too tame, especially in light of the unstoppable,
growing tidal wave of anti-corporate activism. Boycotts are inherently calls
for reformism; once a company changes its policies, the boycott is lifted. The
purpose of this page is different--we want to put ALL multinational corporations
out of business. This will take decades, but we have to start with a few, which
are listed below.
The tactics you take against these companies are up to you. Sabotage, direct
actions, disruption, hacking, union organizing, and just about anything else
is encouraged. Be creative! We ask that you refrain from violence against people,
especially the employees of these companies. The targets here are the rich assholes
who run these companies and the investors who profit, not the security guards
and phone operators.
Have fun and play safe!
If you know of a corporation which belongs here, let us know which one and
why and we'll post it.
LIST OF TARGETS
Amazon.com - For anti-union efforts and helping put small
bookstores out of business.
AOL - For keeping 20 million people ignorant about how to
use the Internet for DIY purposes. [AILING]
Authur Andersen - Big accountant for corrupt corporations.
[DEAD]
Borders - For anti-union efforts and helping put small bookstores
out of business.
CNN - Propaganda arm for the U.S. government.
E-Commerce - Just about any large e-commerce company.
E-Toys
[DEAD]
Our first death! E-Toys announced this week (2-6-01) that
they are closing their doors!
Arrogant e-commerce company that sells toys. This Grinch threatened a small
artists website with a similar name. Activists fought back and now this company
is near death.
Enron - Energy company Ponzi scheme. Bilked and lied to employees.
[NEAR DEATH]
Fresh Fields/Whole Foods - Grocery store chain that caters
to health conscious Yuppies. Anti-union, which means that employees are paid
less than unionized grocery stores. Owners of this chain have connections to
the defense industry. Also is responsible for the closing of several worker-owned
cooperatives.
Home Depot - Anti-union big box store. Recently stopped selling
to the U.S. Government in order to continue its anti-union and anti-labor practices.
Big box store that puts small hardware stores out of business.
McDonalds - Many reasons. See McSpotlight.
Voted by Brickthrowers Local 62 as the "Store Most Likely to Be Trashed at A
Demo." [AILING]
Microsoft - Obvious reasons. The best way to put this company
out of business is to install Linux on your computer and show others how to
do the same. DON'T use pirated MS products, as this is what caused Microsoft
to become so huge. [AILING]
Nieman Marcus - For selling furs.
GAP - Sells sweatshop clothes and ad campaigns encourage materialism
amongst young people. [CRITICALLY ILL]
Walmart - The notorious killer of small town America. Engages
in censorship of music and books. Anti-union.

the U.S. government
