Politics Some companies worth boycotting

[fortyofforty]

A bunch of spineless companies have pulled advertising from Tucker Carlson's show on Fox News.  If they are going to bow to Fascist pressure, I suggest we boycott them.  Why patronize companies that take their cue from Fascists and National Socialists?  Here is a list from The Wrap:

Quote

As of Tuesday morning, Takeda Pharmaceutical Company, TD Ameritrade, Just For Men, United Explorer credit card, ScotteVest, Voya Financial, Zenni Optical, Pacific Life, Indeed, Bowflex, SmileDirectClub, NerdWallet, Minted, Ancestry.com, and IHOP Jaguar had all told TheWrap they plan to suspend advertising on the program.

I'm no impact. I don't use any of those products anyway. 

[Grabbrass]

I'm with Bish ... I've always boycotted those companies.

Don't even know most companies but TD Ameritrade is my day trading broker.

Without their platform ThinkOrSwim I won't be able to succeed. There is nothing on the same level.

Crocket, you could call/email them and tell them that you watch the show and that you are  disgusted by their actions. It is something at least. It is the bread and butter of your coin minting so it is hard to push too hard when you need the resource!

For me I don't use any of the products that the listed companies sell so it is hard for me to piss a fit.

 

I did notice that the purge of conservative thought from Patreon has caused enough backlash that Sam Harris is leaving the platform and that Peterson and Rubin are in talks to create an alternate to Patreon that won't be a SJW manifestation. I heard rumors that the site would use block chain and some form of digital coin. Interesting times.

When the Fascists are upset, they either launch a boycott or send messages to the companies threatening a boycott.  It's effective, as we can see from how fast they bailed from Carlson.  We never play by the same rules.  We lose every time.

Perhaps we could support the sponsors who remain.

Well, I had money with ScotTrade, but TD Ameritrade bought them... so I'll be moving some money somewhere else... just as soon as I can figure out where, tax-wise.

Without Indeed, my recruitment is in the tank, and my boss tears me up when I start paying too much overtime.  Like Crockett with investing, no one comes close to indeed as it comes to recruiting staff.

Some where, some time, you have to stop and take a stand, or you will get trampled from behind

[fortyofforty]

Well, of course it's hard to boycott good companies that make worthwhile products.  It's hard to avoid Google and patronize DuckDuckGo, but I am making that sacrifice.  Fascists are very good at sticking together to force action.  When matters come before the Supreme Court, every leftist is a slam dunk sure thing vote.  In Congress, leftists can stick together at close to 100%, while Republicans bicker and fight and cave.  When Jeff Flake and Chris Coons get together and compromise on something, which way does the compromise bend?  Every time.  One voice doesn't matter.  Fascists never sound off alone, they travel in packs and howl in unison.

Off to have IHOP pancakes for dinner. Merry Christmas!

I am surprised at Ancestry.Com?  Why would they have a dog in this fight?  That  is the LDS/Mormon Church? Why would any  religion attack our man Tucker? Send them a message, Push a missionary off your porch. ?
