This is an update to this post.
This weekend, Amazon is premiering its $40 million Melania Trump documentary. It’s pretty clearly a bribe to the Trump family.
We’re going to disrupt the big premiere weekend by messing up Melania’s Amazon search results. Specifically, we’re going to amplify the paranormal erotic thriller novel Melania: Devourer of Men so it’s high in the results. Maybe #1!
The book is perfect: It’s absurd, the cover is ridiculous, and it’s free, so we’re not giving Amazon any money. (Fun fact: It’s free because of YOU, the users of A Boring Dystopia. After your comments on the last post I reached out to the author, and they agreed to make the book free this weekend.)
Currently, the book ranks #29 in Amazon search results for Melania. But all the other Melania results seem pretty weak (lol), so we can pull this off pretty easily. We just need people to:
- “Buy” the book (it’s free)
- Share this post and get other people to “buy” the book.
That’s it.
Here’s a link to the book, in case your Lemmy client stripped out the links above: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HN9XC1H
Please share and we can celebrate as an erotic novel about a bat monster Melania Trump becomes a higher and higher search result on Amazon!
They already stopped people from buying it, I guess.
This is not true. I just bought the book.
I also did just now. The big yellow button said “Buy it for free” hah!
Me too, for free still as of this comment!
maybe you need to make a Very Private… uh… Nurchase.
You can’t get Kindle books on the Amazon app, you need to go thru a browser or the Kindle app
I totally just did it through the Amazon app though 🤔

Do you have Android or iPhone? AFAIR the issue started because Google wanted to collect 30% of the sales
Edit: I wonder if free books don’t have this issue, I got this book from the browser
If you’re on your phone/in the app it may stop you from buying it without the Kindle app.
I’m hearing mixed things. Do you have a Kindle? It might not show up unless you’ve set one up. Maybe that’s it?
I don’t have a kindle and just bought it!
E: It says Kindle for Web for me, is that a thing that can be activated manually? it’s been ages since i used amazon
There’s a Kindle app for phones, too.
Kinda looks like her, published 2018, so it’s her huh. *Lol description is nuts and yes her.
This comment was a roller coaster!
