January 2025 #MOMCOTT - Meta/Facebook/Instagram

January 1 through January 30, we urge you to protest by deleting Meta's two biggest apps - Facebook and Instagram. Mark Zuckerberg is donating $1,000,000 to Trump's inauguration and therefore officially solidifies his political position.

Meta makes money on your engagement, your views and your clicks in their apps - stopping or even just restricting your usage for one month WILL make a difference. Read below on the different levels of the January 2025 #MOMCOTT, then choose what works best for you and take the #MOMCOTT pledge here!

Go here to take the MOMCOTT pledge.

LEVEL 1

Reduce usage of Meta/Facebook/Instagram by opening the apps one day each week - pick your day then spend the rest of the week screen free!

LEVEL 2

Delete all Meta apps - Facebook/Instagram off your phone. This will not delete your data long-term but it WILL make it easier for you to stay off of these platforms and will make a bigger difference on Meta's engagement stats.

LEVEL 3

All of the above - PLUS create a BlueSky account and post at least 3x between now and January 31!

WHY? Meta and Mark Zuckerberg are watching BlueSky with trepidation - every new user on this other platform is bad news for their long-term business. There are very few competitors to Meta, and no other social media platform has been able to monetize like Meta. Could BlueSky finally be the one to bring them down?

Throughout 2025, we will be sending out #MOMCOTT Goals for each month! For example, we will add to our #MOMCOTT list, as we research business-owners who outwardly supported Trump and the companies that fuel their bank accounts. In addition, the month of February will be dedicated to Black-owned businesses.
