WAIT A MINUTE!
If you are inclined toward boycotting as I am then this will interest you.
A Guide To Consumer Brands Helping Bankroll Right-Wing Attack Ads
If you are not, forget about it.
I am shocked to see that some brands I support are also supporting right wing PACs or the GOP,
I wear New Balance to go to the Gold's gym.
I am delighted to have the Coachella Festival in my neighborhood. Jeez. I thought this was just some young people with time on their hands putting on a "show".
I used to stay in Marriott all the time and would still do that today even though I knew them and that they are all Mormons and give a shitload of money to anti gay causes especially Prop 8.
I m good on the other brands on the list. I would not wipe my ass with Angel Soft, the ones with babies, because for years I worked for a competitor. The one that has puppies. Now, I actually use house brand paper products at my supermarket.
So there is nowhere to hide. The New Balance shoes really really work for me and you know that I have this lifetime deal at Golds where I pay 99 dollars a year membership.
So I guess I am not a good boycotter.
I suppose that I could say I am for free speech which I am and actually, boycotting seems more of a right wing kind of thing than on my side.
Another one of those self defeating things that liberals do.
