Sometimes, the most powerful form of protest isn’t about what you do, it's about what you don't do. The simplest way to fight back against a system that thrives on your consumption is to simply... opt out of it as much as humanly possible. It’s going to be super inconvenient at first, but once you get the hang of it you’ll realize the perks: it’s better for the environment, better for your wallet, and a surprisingly powerful tool to weaponize in a capitalist society. And the best part? You don’t have to do anything. In fact, the less you do, the better.
