Thanks.

The procedure now for anyone with a Discover card, wants to cancel it, but doesn't want their name on a list of people who cancelled their card over this issue is:

1) Wait. Don't change your behavior at all but mark a date on the calendar between 3 weeks and 6 months.

2) When the magic date happens, cancel your card.

This works great with other companies too. For instance, in a month I'll be out of the largish amount of Gillette products I bought on sale. Then, when they run out, I'll never buy anything from them in any category ever again as long as I live.

Companies on this list are:

Dove

Target

Coke

Nike

Pepsi

Adidas

Starbucks

Patagonia

Chips Ahoy (!)

B of A - Bunch of Assholes

T-mobile

Macys

Spotify

Oreo

Calvin Klein

Under Armour

Tesla (was considering a purchase)

These are companies I actually bought either on a regular basis or at least a couple times a year.

COVID-19 is great cover for dropping retailers... all they see is all their customers went away, but some never came back.....

So, what do you know about credit card companies? Discover, Visa, and Mastercard are all cunts.

When you have a monopoly of Woke like this the thing to do is to alll go after one. Destroy it. Sure, yo're driving business to the other three, but you're also signalling your market power. Now the other two have a problem. Which one of them is willing to take the chance that they're next? Make corporatre cowardice, which is all woke is anyway, kick in.

Sure they're all the same. So kill one then ask the other two how lucky they feel.

Hmmm, most interesting strategy. Yeah, alright. I'll think about it.
