So really boycotting isn't a thing for most of us but rather just not giving money where we don't prefer.

This is pretty much how I've always done it, "vote with my wallet".

This thread got prompted by some other conversation that was trying to push all around the conversation to stop supporting business on a list. One of the companies on the list was really a parent company that holds umpteen other companies with umpteen other sub-brands under each of them.

To me it is laughable that my family "boycotting" them would do anything other than annoy and inconvenience me. What Ken mentioned earlier about who the boycotts actually hurt makes sense to me.

Louis L'Amour, “To make democracy work, we must be a nation of participants, not simply observers. One who does not vote has no right to complain.”
