Time and time again since 2010 you can saw businesses have been engaging way more in political issues and it's not causing a dent for them.
Conservatives think they are but nothing is happening. The nfl is still raking in billions, the nba will be fine and so will mlb.
I mean we all buy shite that is Chinese made every day/week. I just don't believe in these boycotts because the avg attention span of an every day American engaged with this shite is 1 week at most.
So nothing is going to happen. More and more companies will go woke, every major sport will be woke and shite won't change.
It sucks but it's inevitable at this point.

The Rangers game being packed was disappointing. But I have a feeling they thought of it as a Covid FU. Make no mistake, MLB will be hurt bad. You always post this dumb BS.

The boycotts need to be targeted, intense and sustained. It helps that this time TRUMP is personally calling for boycotts.

Way to rally the troops, pussy.

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.

You’re going to get downvoted into oblivion. But, you’re right.
Most of the geniuses downvoting you won’t even stay off Twitter or CNN- and that requires absolutely zero effort. Every freaking hour on this board one of them starts a thread about what somebody said on Twitter or whatever CNN published... and linking it.
You think they’re going to sacrifice something or boycott something that makes life a bit more inconvenient?
Not happening.

You said Delta twice.

It’s a business decision at this point. They know conservatives won’t do shite and they want to win brownie points from the left.

Nothing will happen to these companies. In fact all of their shares will go through the roof because of it

Keep Up The Delta Airlines Boycott – Delta Cancels Over 100 Flights on Sunday, But Cites “Staff Shortages”
April 5, 2021
Sundance
Last week President Donald Trump asked for a full and unrelenting boycott of several corporations who are operating as political activists to advance an agenda on behalf of the far-left. The corporations spoke against election integrity and are opposed to secure election reforms. Among those corporations cited for immediate boycott was Delta Airlines. On Sunday Delta cancelled over 100 flights: ” Websites at three Delta hubs showed 33 canceled flights arriving or departing, the newspaper notes, with 19 canceled flights at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, 11 at Detroit’s Metropolitan Airport and three at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport.” (link) Delta is claiming “staff shortages” suddenly appeared in multiple states, simultaneously; that had never happened before, immediately after the boycott began. This story reeks of Delta cancelling the flights because of the boycott, but they don’t want to admit the reason for the cancellation so they make up an artificial justification. You decide what is likely. A coincidental cancellation across multiple states, affecting multiple flights, in multiple locations… or the boycott is working?

That’s a defeatist attitude. The Super Bowl had its worst ratings in years, at a time when people are craving entertainment. That will have a financial impact if we stay the course. We have to keep at it, keep doing your part, and keep spreading the word.

NFL is hurting, they're going to start WWE style story lines in order to draw more interest (not realizing it won't work)

Was just reading this and was going to quote and link. Since you've already quoted, I'll just drop the link.

I have quit watching MLB and drinking Coke. I am just one person but it has to start somewhere. I would happily boycott Delta airlines but am not traveling nowdays.

Lowest NBA and World Series ratings last year as well. Magician is just soft.

It’s a zero cost policy for these companies. They please the woke mob and the people in Washington. And the people they offend just get over it, because they have to.
When all the major airlines are out there calling you a racist - but you still need to fly, what else are you going to do?
