After reviewing the suggestions received for a concentrated boycott of three cowardly/politically-correct/scared/over-reacting/leftist-liberal controlled and/or contemptuous-of-their-customers commercial companies and corporations, I'm recommending we laser-in on the following three entities as targets for the COMPLETE STOPPAGE OF PATRONAGE for four months starting NOW and ending November 30th
The list included the following...with recommendation and comment added:
City of San Francisco - Sanctuary City, with all the addition liberal/leftist trimmings - tourism, conventions, etc. - NO-GO, not enough conservatives go there or want to go there to make a difference one way or another.
Progressive Insurance - heavy TV advertiser, boslshevik commie leftist ownership, pro-abortion, heavy 'Rat donors, the company's name says it all - NO-GO - they're too big and un-local to make a dent...waste of effort
Hollyweirdos/Hollypedos movies/local theaters - ( media propaganda arms of the 'Rat Party and highly-influential looney-clooneys) - GO !!!!.... resist your urges and stay away from your local Bijou for the next 120 days. You can do it! I've done it for 5 years...and am still breathing!
Macy's Department Store Chain - banned in true totalitarian fashion all Trump merchandise with usual liberal rants and ravings -good vulnerable target (they're closing stores, ours closed last month), they're local, in malls or close to most of us, they're dependent on local sales - GO !!!....no cheating with Macy's internet purchases , please. Cancel your charge card (with written reason) and don't step one tootsie across one of the chain's retail establishment threshholds.
Burger King - tempting, but NO-GO, even though their Whoppers are being sold in rainbow wrappers and they're now known as Bugger King. Some companies are just too big and impersonal for a boycott to have any impact, and BK is just not worth the effort.
NASCAR - races, merchandise - despite a fandom of lots of Southerners, it has advocated a ban on the Confederate Flag at its tracks and on its merchandise. However, again it's tempting, but still a NO-GO. The reactionary, lily-livered NASCAR association can try to ban anything Confederate, but we can rest assured that in all probability its customers will take the matter into their own hands....and if any FReepers go to a race, don't forget to bring your own little Confederate Flag with you.
Starbucks - a good personal choice but just drink your Folger's at home. Not a particularly good target for an organized boycott....so, it's a NO-GO. Why? because the stores' hippie, nerdy and lefty-sophisticated regular clientele will still patronize the business...and conservatives know to not go there to sit around anyhow....and Starbuck's ownership cares as much about our limited patronage as we do about its overpriced products. Their coffee shops are just better ignored.
Disney Corporation - (movies, theme parks, merchandise, vast multi-media ownership and control) - gleefully dancing on Walt Disney's conservative grave, there's now a complete takeover of company hierarchy with leftist agenda eerily financed by customers' capitalist dollars. Pro-abortion, gun-control, hiring non-Americans, income-redistribution, socialist, nanny state and active homosexual agenda, Disney has it all. For a boycott Disney Corp. is a GO !!! Don't feather its nest for the next four months. Take the kiddies to Williamsburg instead. No one can afford Disneyworld anymore, anyhow. It's a small, small world....make Disneyworld smaller by staying away in droves for the next four months.
RECAP - BOYCOTT YOUR LOCAL MOVIE THEATER FOR FOUR MONTHS (write the manager and let him/her know why...or your efforts are fruitless
BOYCOTT MACY'S - hide or tear up your charge card, let the store manager and corporate know why or your efforts are fruitless
BOYCOTT DISNEY CORP. AND ALL ITS MEDIA OUTLETS, THEME PARKS, MERCHANDISE AND MOVIES TILL THE END OF NOVEMBER. Write their corporate office and let them know of your boycott...or all your efforts are in vain.
It's virtually impossible for conservatives to organize and fulfill boycotts....they tend to target bad marks, i.e., too-big-to-fail entities, places that don't have local outlets, places conservatives don't patronize anyhow, etc. Plus, conservatives are independent cusses, don't like to be asked to boycott, and are harder to herd than cats.
Most boycotts target TOO MANY entities, and time-periods for boycotting are open-ended...both of which never work and are strategy-killers.
That's why we're giving it a try for a defined period of time to see what happens.
Tip...I will be using the boycotted company names in my tag line, visible in every post I make. I'm informing my emailing listees, conservative and non-conservative who I'm boycotting...I won't even have to explain why because they trust me. I urge all freepers to put the power of the e-pen to good use!

Very clever thinking on your part, to use your tagline as a reminder notice to everyone to boycott the chosen three businesses. Such brilliance should not unwatched go.
