Wouldn’t you think Republican leadership would be crowing over this news? Between Disney, Bud Light and new Hollywood movie releases crashing, our boycotts are successful. But apparently embarrassing to donor class.

Governor Ron DeSantis has been and is the most prominent conservative leader in the fight against these depravities.

That’s why the silences amongst the donor classes.

The reason the economics are successful is because they are not boycotts. People insist on calling them boycotts because they don’t know what a boycott is and the current phenomenon looks a lot like a boycott in that it is accomplishing what a boycott wants to do. A boycott is a coordinated effort to force a company to change its behavior based on the possibility that sales will suffer. Boycotts do not work because people inevitably will go to Target or WalMart ot will continue to buy the product because they need them more than they care about boycotting them.

Risney, Target and Bud Light are not being boycotted, they are being rejected. People will not simply start drinking Bud Light when Anheuser Busch admits they screwed up. They have been rejected. I am not drinking bud or bud light and it is too late for them nothing they can do even giving it away will get those customers back. Disney has peed in the bath water so much that nobody wants to get back in the tub. A boycott would be people getting back in the tub if they will just filter the water.
