10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Scheele's, a big sporting good store, is on there. I switched to other options.
Looks like it's just one particular Scheels that's on there. I'd guess the franchisee is a dickhead, not the overall corporation (any more than corporations are usually dickheads anyway).
My local Scheels is not on there. In fact, relatively few local businesses are, which is surprising since I live in a pretty red state (though the city is pretty purple, and only getting bluer as time goes on).
Well... fuck.
Any way we could keep a historical record of these businesses? I can foresee them doing a full cleansing of their internet presence as they lose business.
I'm worried they'll pull another 2008, where everyone decided they hadn't voted for W in 2004 so nothing was their fault, they'd been 'liberteranians' all along.
We need to remember who supported him, this matters.
Archive.org
There's additional mirrors, but that's the big one
And that's why the US government cut all public funds to Archive.org.
Archive.org retains the website. I want to track the actual data. I haven't had a moment to inspect the website to see how the data is being pulled.
Public square.com is the name of this website
As a consumer, PublicSquare’s website is easy to use. You just enter your ZIP code
Where? In the search box I just get a few products that happen to have my zip code in their description (not as a zip, but as a product number or something). Other comments here mention a map, but I'm not seeing that.
Edit: Found it. It's really buried.
They changed it (uncertain when) after a lot of publicity.
That site's UX is a steaming pile of shit.
I recently bought some stuff online from Penzeys, specifically because of the anti-maga stuff.
My mom orders stuff from them all the time. We don't even use the spices fast enough but she gets more, usually for her friends too though.
Their Fox point seasoning is the shit. Veggies, eggs, garlic toast, and it makes an excellent dupe of noodles and company buttered noodles.
I just checked to see who was listed in my area, I sure would like to boycott them but I'd never heard of any of them before so I guess I already was.
Nothing says you can't share that information in a review
Why is HitlerPig Jr in the photo? Is he promoting his MAGA cocaine dealer?
A plausible guess, but the article says he's on the website's board of directors.
Ooh good to know, I don’t want to give my hard-earned money to MAGAt nonsense.
Anybody got an actual list? I can't be asses to scroll through product listings and that site is terribly designed.
There's a map by zip code, seems like it's an per business opt in setup.
I'm surprised by how many of the local shitholes figured out the internet in my town. Lot of construction, photography, and those shitty businesses that sell scam ass herbal supplements.
Where is this map? I'm not finding anything like that on the site.
Edit. Found it. It's really buried.
So...Instead of becoming a BETTER business, they decided to HIDE the evil business?
This could use some governmental oversight. Oops, wrong government. NEVERMIND.
Am I using this app correctly? I’m confused
