    I don’t find that to be a particularly helpful boycott. Boycotting several large corporations like that takes a lot of effort. That’s effort that can be used for more effectively directly fighting Trump

    Call your representatives, protest, rally voters, etc. are far more effective with less impact on your life

      Hard disagree. Corporations taking L’s due to consumer choice is just about the last non-violent message we have that ever gets a response. Calling reps doesn’t matter at all, and I have no idea how changing shopping habits is expected to be harder than the degree of protesting required to achieve anything.

      Many of our lives are improved by ditching the abusive relationship with these giant corporations, anyway, so the idea that it’s even strictly a burden is just not accurate.
