Well the boycott seems to have backfired.
Nah, don’t think it backfired so much as amounted to free advertizing for Whole Earth Foods. I think the store got some Conservative shoppers going there, just to check it out.
Liberals are cowards, typically uninformed and without a will. To ask them to give up a whole-food breakfast cereal to defend a liberal cause is asking too much. They have no problem demanding you give up meat ... but to ask them to shop elsewhere - that is just too much effort.
The liberals I know, are so self-centered, that the mere idea of self-sacrifice in order to help someone else is as alien to them as asking them to respect the country that enables them to enjoy the freedoms they so love to abuse. Liberals have no problem using the law, or courts to order you to give money to those who are too lazy to work; but are ‘above’ giving to charity, be it a church, or other fundraiser.
That’s why the boycott didn’t work. IMHO.
