A social media campaign has sparked plans for an economic blackout on Friday, as activists seek to draw attention to the struggles of many Americans who are facing high costs. The event is part of several planned boycotts aimed at large corporations, with a focus on Amazon and other companies seen as supporting anti-democratic practices. While some commenters support the idea of an economic blackout, others advocate for targeted boycotts that can be sustained over time.
