Bud products, because of Jane Fonda supporting the commies.
Hitachi, because they sold US Navy secrets to the Russians during the cold war.

Never liked Target
I drink Miller Lite if I'm drinking beer
Can't afford/don't need North Face
Nike shoes are shite quality and not very comfortable- I wish LSU would go back to Adidas (founded by Nazis, apparently ).

I won't do without something if the only option is one of the above, or a multitude of other brands that but since I usually have a choice, I choose another brand.

Samsung they purposefully build their products to fail. Underrated capacitor lawsuits over the years, is by design not accident. The costs for higher voltage rated caps is negligible.

Nothing to do with the recent gay Woke shite, but I’ve been pretty consistent throughout my life that I will not get gas at a BP if it’s next to a Shell/Circle K etc. (I always try and fill up at Costco now but besides the point).

My personal revenge for the BP oil spill.

I guess the only things that have turned my stomach enough to quit are the NBA, Robert Dinero movies and I dont shop at Target.

People have listed various reasons they avoid a company's products, but few have said they do so "because of what they advertise or sell". Most have instead said they boycott based on a company's perceived view on a social or political issue.

Maybe you asked a poorly worded question, or perhaps responders didn't read it. I'll stick to the actual question.

I boycott Burger King because they sell shitty hamburgers that taste like fake smoke. And I no longer shop at H&M because they advertised a racist hoodie.

I’m too lazy to boycott anything. That being said, I don’t drink shitty beer or live near a Target.

Which ones?

Dick's Sporting Goods...

Not so sporting to not sell firearms.

My son plays hockey. This store didn't carry anything hockey.

We didn't shop there but let my kids yell out "Dicks" every time we drove by. It was their first curse word they were allowed to say in front of their parents

This location has shuttered for good and sits vacant.

NFL
Why?


They are used as a means to funnel $ for anti-America shite.

Under an agreement with the Players Coalition, NFL owners plan to funnel tens of millions of dollars to the Dream Corps, a leftist advocacy group led by former Obama adviser Van Jones and linked to Mr. Soros, which has called for saving the Clean Power Plan, cutting the prison population by half and providing “sanctuary for all.”

The $89 million, seven-year deal also carves out millions of dollars for the Players Coalition, according to ESPN, which has been advised by Soros-funded groups such as the Campaign for Fair Sentencing of Youth and the Center for American Progress, a leader of the anti-Trump “resistance.”

The agreement distributes funding for both local and national efforts. On the national side, the owners agree to pay $73 million over seven years, with 25 percent earmarked for the United Negro College Fund and 25 percent to the Dream Corps.

The remaining 50 percent would be controlled by the Players Coalition, which has filed for 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) tax-exempt status, as a fiscally sponsored project of the Hopewell Fund, which is managed by Arabella Advisors, a major player in the environmental movement.
