A quarter of US shoppers have dumped favorite stores over political stances

We were having a family discussion about where our money goes – and doesn’t – these days.

We don’t hit up TrumpBurger (McDonalds) unless we are out and about and there just isn’t another choice (so far, so good). I buy a lot less Coca-Cola since they became ICE snitches. Target used to get about $150 a week from us. We can’t avoid them completely but they haven’t gotten even that weekly amount in total since they killed their DEI programs, and nothing over the past couple weeks.

Seems like we aren’t alone in this. Which is great since obviously no one is gonna move the needle based on my financial contribution alone.

But it goes other places too. I don’t give to NPR anymore. I probably should since, sure, they aren’t FOXNews but…. They have gone way out of their way to comply with the worst of us, in favor of mocking dead school kids, repeating outright administration lies without clarification, etc. They might not be my enemy, but they sure as hell aren’t my friend either.

John Leguizamo is trying to orchestrate boycotts aimed at certain companies to show them folks are paying attention to their actions. Not sure if this works or not. There is money to be made in hate these days but I just do not want to reward horrible behavior.
