You can only once every four years, but you can with your wallet 7 days a week!
Yea this isn’t surprising at all. A big part of the capitalist ideology as taught to most people is that you with your wallet. For consoomers that’s supposed to mean they pay for “good” products and services & “punish” bad ones by withholding your dollar. Of course this conveniently leaves out issues like monopolies and companies colluding to fix prices but shhhh don’t worry about that.
So when a company is aligning with your sports team political party then it’s a political statement to give them money. The right wing grifters had this figured out when they started all those veteran owned companies that sold bacon grease infused coffee & shit like that.
you forgot to mention somepeople own 99% of the money and has already voted against us.

It also conveniently leaves out the fact that the term boycott comes from a bunch of Irish peasants effectively going on a general strike against their landlord, and that boycotts often involved smashing the property of the people you’re boycotting.
But today it’s just been twisted into “don’t shop there! That’s what a boycott is! :)”
Happens every time. The Luddites are another excellent example. Groups of workers opposing their jobs being taken from them by machines are now simple technology haters without reason
