I’ve been boycotting GE since I got a deep dive into GE Financial books at the bank I worked for. We bought a package of loans that was “serviced” by GEFin and they were playing all kinds of games to keep accounts active to bill about. Illegal, costly to the borrowers and original lender, unethical and immoral.

Nike because I refuse to buy sports bras modeled and marketing by a flat chested man when there are plenty of female athletes who could have gotten that job.

No...but there are some brands I avoid because I don't think they have a good product. KFC would be an example. I don't know how you can manage to make fried chicken that terrible.

I've been intentionally buying from small local places when possible for years. However, I will go out of my way to avoid Target and some of the other woke BS if possible.
As a side note, if I have to check myself out when leaving your store, I'm not stopping for you to check my receipt. I'm not ugly, I just keep walking.

I avoid what I can. But I absolutely refuse to purchase Nike or support the NFL. The NFL is national thug league, full of trash hidden behind a football. Not all, but many. And we all know Michael Prick. May he burn in h*ll one day. And be attacked by h*ll’s demons for eternity so he feels forever what he did to the little red dog and all the others.

Indy Star -- Fair Oaks Farms




Not seeing where that has anything to do with Fairlife milk.

Even went to Fair Oaks Farms website and didn't notice a mention of Fairlife.

eta-Did a bit more searching and see they are related. At that, don't really care. Your vid was from 2019 and apparently those in the vid were taken care of.

I'm not much on boycotting anything because I'm too lazy to care.

unless someone has a really fricking annoying commercial that plays every single break during a game (sometimes even twice in the same commercial break).

for example:
thanks to watching Danny DeVito and that goddamn saxophone 7 billion times this baseball season, I will never ever ever eat at a Jersey Mike's.

Nike (because of their love of Communist China’s regime and child labor)
Tillman Fertitta restaurants (because he chided the Rocket’s GM for speaking out about China)
The Kaliste Saloom Ground Patti location in Lafayette
Imported crawfish and shrimp
Any seafood from China or Vietnam
Citco gas stations
Any restaurant owned or operated by that jackhole in NOLA
who mocked Luke Mixon’s death

Yes. Bud light and target. Line in the sand. Need to run both of them out for good as a lesson. This is how we need to fight back. The Marxist will take away your living if they get a chance so it’s time to fight back NOW

Is that the POS covidian who made babies wear masks in his establishments?

IIRC his mocking of that death resulted in a wave of Google/Yelp review bombs from the baws here.
