But how am i able to stop people from buying boxes full of random shit from shein and amazon? That is the problem. I have no impact on other peoples spending choices.

Take for example video games. I don't preorder and i don't buy microtransactions. Vote with your wallet right? But then there are people spending all their money on it and it just gets worse.

The only thing i can think of that i can have a tiny impact on is being vegan. Cooking vegan for people so they see its tasty and hopefully they replace their meat based dinner with a vegan one every few days.

But besides that i don't know what to do to stop people from feeding bad things in the world.

You can't, and that's irrelevant to what I was responding to.
