“Let these Leftist companies try to make their profits on those that espouse their agendas, not mainstream America - they won’t be getting any of my business.”

They will not survive on the Left’s business with them. Plus, as many have pointed out, the Internet is getting more convenient by the day. Most of the larger on-line businesses have developed local distribution so delivery is very fast.
I ordered a couple of tires for my wife’s car from Tire Rack (we live near SF and Tire Rack’s distribution center is near Reno, NV). The tires were delivered the next day. I asked the delivery driver (UPS) how they could do it so fast. He told me that Tire Rack’s Bay Area business is so strong that they ship several trailer loads of tires here every day. Plus California doesn’t get any sales tax revenue, which is a definite plus.

If you are into LLBean, you might like Duluth Trading as well. Their stuff is of high quality too.

Amazon’s leadership promotes globalism with their wealth.

We need to spread our dollars to other online businesses

“Amazon’s leadership promotes globalism with their wealth.”

We’re avoiding Amazon too. Deal directly with the internet provider. You don’t really need Amazon.

Amazon is becoming the internet mall. And you don't need to go to the mall to get to the store you want. Since they started charging sales tax here, I've used them much less.
