Now, if the very same people that are supporting CFA, Bill Millers, etc. would boycott places like Starbucks, Chipotle and other liberal/Marxist organizations we might have something.

Boycotts usually don’t work without implied, or explicit, threats. There simply aren’t enough warriors on either side*.
However, BUYcotts can and do work. Early in Rush’s days there was a steak house, I think in Northern Florida, that was under attack for supporting Rush, by having a “Rush Room” (where they played his show during lunch). Rush was like, “we can’t let that succeed”, so he commanded his masses there, and packed the place non-stop, for weeks.
That is something we can do, and it’s certainly working with Chick-a-Fill and now Bill Millers (which I plan to get to the next time I’m in San Antonio or Austin).
*the one exception seems to be when a company attacks its base of supporters, like Gillette telling men to ‘get woke’, or Dicks being, well, dicks, at least when it comes to guns, or Yeti (coolers). But if the business has a strong level of support from Leftists, we’re essentially wasting our time trying to boycott - it won’t affect them, even though I concede that it still feels good not to give them our money.
I am but one man.. but I am doing my part.
