Last week was Amazon Prime Day and the small business community showed up to encourage their customers to spend their money thoughtfully, and to remind them that small businesses have been hurting this year while Amazon is profiting off of the pandemic.

Emily and Michelle were surprised to discover that there is a small faction of makers that were offended by the anti-Amazon agenda and one business owner specifically felt the need to attack Emily’s Instagram post that encouraged the support of shopping small over shopping 'Prime'.

Since it’s impossible to have a rational discussion on social media, Emily did the only reasonable thing: deleted the comments and talked about it on our podcast instead!
