An airline is great for a personal choice boycott. But selecting more widely-used, specific businesses is much better. Everyone I know who flies may use an airline, any airline, once or twice a year if they're not professional salesmen or the like.

We should pick some retail outfit close to everyone's towns and cities across the fruited plane.

A place like Starbucks is a good personal choice (which I'm personally observing as I posted yesterday)....but NOT for an organized boycott. Why, because the coffeehouse's hippie and leftie clientele will counterattack massively...and our boycott would veer off into other directions. We must THINK. We must choose carefully for best results.

Supermarkets, department stores, restaurant chains, home goods, big box stores, etc. are all good targets.

At the moment we should strategically lay back a little till the irreligious Constitution-Destroying and Culture-Changing perps come out of the woodwork like Delta did. There will be more as the week progresses as CEOs and other executives and owners take radical left positions and announce them via the media......so a decision should wait till at least next weekend.

In the meantime, post suggestions and backup reasons if you have a potential, viable, visible target or two in mind....keeping the above suggested guidelines in mind.

Pledging "no going to a Hollyweird movie theater" for four months would be an excellent choice in starting a list as we wait for a week for the perps to come out of the woodwork. We don't need back-up reasons for this choice, lol.

Everyone keep your eye on the news for those businesses REALLY out of line for our potential boycott list which we could wrap up a week from today (Sunday) with one or two, maybe three at the most, do-able targets.

"Movie theaters" is now the first on my list of make-sense, viable targets.

See post #54 for more details.

Companies such as Starbucks and Ben and Jerry's make no bones about their progressive proclivities, it's what their image is all about. They put it out their for all to see and wear it like a badge of honor. Boycotting them wouldn't make much of an impact IMO. I've also swore off Starshcmucks. There are many Cuban owned mom-and-pop bodegas around Tampa whose coffee is just a good or better and much more reasonably priced. Besides, being the good little progressives they portray themselves to be, you'd think they would want us to BUY LOCALLY.

I already boycott all airlines as much as possible. I absolutely HATE air travel these days.

BOYCOTT ALERT!

See #'s 54 & 78 before commenting. Thanks.

I stated upthread I would wait a week to see what companies come out of the woodwork in reaction to the SCOTUS decisions and other issues. I've now added one more to my list (below)...and will make a decision by next weekend which 3 to pick out of my list for a 4 month boycott.

I've just added Macy's. Great target...they're local retail...and they've been closing stores which shows to me they're a tad shaky, anyhow.

Here's my list so far:

"Hollyweird" movie theaters - media propaganda arm of the leftist Democrat Party

Disney Company (movies, theme parks, merchandise) - gleefully dancing on conservative Walt Disney's grave, complete takeover of company hierarchy with leftist agenda, pro-abortion, gun control, income redistribution, homosexual agenda, socialism, nanny-state, you name it!

Progressive Insurance - bolshevik commie left-liberal ownership, pro-abortion, heavy donors to DemoRat Party, the company's name says it all!

Macy's Department Chain - just banned all Trump merchandise/affiliations with usual liberal rant (interesting thread on Macy's/Trump running now on FR)

I'll be watching like a hawk this week for new additions to the list as company after company is coming out of the liberal/leftist woodwork in reaction to SCOTUS, Trump and other issues.

I'll list my final three to concentrate a boycott on next week. Bookmark this thread.

BOYCOTT ALERT!

Please read posts #54, 78 and 110 before commenting. Thank you.

They're being smoked out! I'm adding another name to the list of possible boycottees...namely NASCAR.

Briefly, NASCAR is not only urging NO Confederate flags at its events, but they get an extra zero for SHEER STUPIDITY for striking out at the hearts of its "heart of Dixie" fans and customers.

Here's the current list from which 3 entities to boycott for four months will be selected next weekend. There'll probably be more weasely reactionary companies and corporations coming out this week....and we'll be watching and waiting to see who they are!

CURRENT LIST

"Hollyweird" movie theaters - media propaganda arm of the Left

Disney Company (movies, theme parks, merchandise) - gleefully dancing on conservative Walt Disney's grave, company hierarchy has complete leftist agenda, pro-abortion, gun control, income redistribution, homosexual agenda, socialism, nanny-state, you name it!

Progressive Insurance - bolshevik commie left-liberal ownership, pro-abortion, heavy donor to Demonrat Party, even the company's name says it all

Macy's Department Store Chain - a real chicken-shiite liberal corporation which just banned all Trump merchandise/affiliation along with usual snarky "politically-correct" public rants

NASCAR - wants no more Confederate flags on its premises as it races to oblivion by denigrating, lecturing, chastising and virtually handcuffing its own fun-loving, patriotic stadium and TV-viewing fans.

Anything to add? Just ping me! Bookmark and keep watching this thread for updates.
