I don't boycott things with the idea that it will "take them down". It's more of a personal decision to try and stop supporting people that engage in activities that I don't approve of. So whether or not they fail or even care isn't really the point.

I'm trying to direct MY money the best I can to be responsible. Of course I'm going to fail some along the way or be put in a position where I don't have a choice but I will always try to put my money where my mouth is. That's all we can do.

Now stop being a defeatist bitch.

Exactly how I feel.

I have never had a Facebook or other social media account other than a fake Twitter to have fun with guys on the OT.

After the election, I deleted Twitter and cancelled my Amazon prime account.

I don’t watch cable TV (Not even Fox)and cancelled all pay sites a few years back.

I take maybe one plane flight every few years when I have to (I love to drive anyway)

The only thing I pay for regularly is Disney Plus because I have a Roku and watch all my TV on it. (Hulu)

I am doing everything I can to not support socialism thinking companies. Guess what? I don’t miss any of it.

You would be surprised how much better your relationships became when you are not focused on the wrong things.

Please let me know where I am being hypocritical - I would be happy to stop other things as well (except tiger droppings)

This.

If a company has made it plain to me that they don’t want or need my money, I’m not going to beg them to take it. I’ll just move on to someone who DOES want my business.
