Vote with my money. I'm not calling to get anyone fired or smearing or doxing or ruining lives and families or harassing. No lives are in danger by not purchasing a product. Free market is vastly different that cancel culture.

And if that's wrong and using my dollars how I want is cancel culture then yes I guess what you said is true.




More important, boycotts are intended to change behavior, and as soon as the company changes its behavior the boycott ends.

Cancel culture has no forgiveness.

Amazon is easy for me. I can’t tell the legit stuff from the cheap China knock off crap. I don’t ever use it because I don’t trust the reviews, many are fake.

Since it's a relatively short list can you tell us why you boycotted each product?

What exactly did Pepsi do to you? Frankly, they have been surprisingly quiet about all of this bs. More companies should be like that.

Pepsi CEO is the model SJW. Fito-Lay-PepsiCo along with Coca-Cola need to go extinct. They can choke on a rainbow Oreo.
quote:

don’t look to Pepsi as the sane voice of the world of soda.

From CEO Ramon Laguarta: “We proudly stand with our Black associates and Black communities, and we believe unequivocally that Black Lives Matter. … Over the next few years, we will expand our pursuit of racial and social justice in communities around the world.”

Among Pepsi’s recently announced social justice endeavors are $6.5 million to “address systemic issues” of race; $10 million to “support Black-owned restaurants,” $350 million to ratchet business specifically with “Black-owned suppliers,” $50 million to “strengthen Black-owned small businesses,” and more — and more like the addition of “100 Black associates to our executive ranks” and a purposeful increase of “our current Black manager population by 30%.”

Skin color’ll get ya good benefits at PepsiCo, it seems. Racist? Umm … kind of, yeah.


quote:

On their website, Pepsi outlines their support for LGBTQ+ rights, and notes, “In March 2019, the Human Rights Campaign awarded PepsiCo a perfect score for our LGBT+ workplace initiatives and designated us the Best Place to Work for LGBTQ equality.”

I have started buying from Walmart.

It’s hard to avoid them, but we can limit our business with them. Regardless of politics, the economy is healthier with more providers, and that’s the main reason I shop at places other than Wal-Mart, as much as I can.

Food is easy because produce and meat from Wal-Mart generally suck compared to Publix, Kroger, Winn Dixie, etc. You can find better deals on other food items at the grocery stores, too. Also, the clothing at Wal-Mart is horrible. I bought some jogging pants at Academy last week after pricing them at Wal-Mart first.

The one thing I do have to go to Wal-Mart for is cat litter. It’s just hard to find the larger box at any other place.

The one everyone can do is start back using local pharmacies instead of Wal-Mart, CVS, and Walgreens.

Out of ignorance I ask, who are those companies?



There are very few, if any, national level companies that meet the description, which means you need to search long and hard, especially in your local area, for companies and individuals who meet this description.

I recommend using churches, hunting clubs, and sports clubs as a shortcut to finding and building networks of like minded men who can build a buycott list together. You can't do it alone.
