I absolutely agree that conservatives need to fight back against liberal dominance of our culture. But there are two big issues with this. I would love to boycott companies that supported BLM. But that would be 99% of them if you count posting a black square on Twitter, and I’m not willing to live as as ascetic. So I need to pick-and-choose which companies are egregious enough to warrant boycots, and everyone has a different threshold so it winds up not working.

Second, there have been many times — usually with small companies — where I see someone standing up to the woke mob, jump in with my support, and less than a week later the CEO releases a statement apologizing for the controversy I tried to support them for. And this happens even in cases when the jump in sales has garnered media reports.

I do make a sincere attempt to “feed your friends; starve your enemies”. But can you point me to a conservative entertainment company? (yes I support Daily Wire. They have a total of one movie at the moment). If I were to boycott Amazon, which online retailer should I use (and don’t tell me to shop local since I live in a small town)? I did deliberately switch to Microsoft Edge to not use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, but is Microsoft really all that much better at being anti-woke?

I’ve bought tens of thousands $’s over the years on the Internet; high end optics, knives, rifles, clothes, cameras, lens, video equip,etc. I have never used Amazon.
