    So your constructive suggestion is… That I should start buying from them again? So that I can stop buying from them again?

    Like what do you want me to do.

      My constructive suggestion was for people to stop saying they are unintentionally boycotting things. It just seems self-congratulatory and smug and every boycott discussion is just choked with those comments.

      I was writing third paragraph about how if you aren’t shopping somewhere that is being boycott, you can help by spreading the word. I deleted it once when I had the realization that it doesn’t matter what I say, the next boycott post will have the same comments and that I’m getting worked up over something I can’t change.
