Amy's Foods until the strikers say otherwise. I support BDS always. No fast food, no fast fashion.

Keeping track of what to boycott became to burdensome, so I'm just kinda doing a universal boycott where I buy everything possible second hand.
Hobby Lobby is probably one of the biggest on my shitlist
Many things actually. I'm in the process of degoogling and ditching ms office. Ditched reddit. Ditched discord. I'm also ditching android apps and switching to FOSS versions if i can find them. And today i ditched Startpage. I just found this article about them: https://restoreprivacy.com/startpage-system1-privacy-one-group/
I'm also trying to get rid of plastic and replacing plastic things if i can. So, no more plastic cutting boards, switched them for glass ones. Dental floss in a cardboard box. Things like that.

There’s no way some of the stuff itt is actually boycotts.
Boycotts are organized and have specific goals and demands. Not buying nestle products isn’t a boycott because whats the demand, that they break up? Pirating media or blocking ads isn’t a boycott both because it’s not organized (in the political sense, not the semantic sense) and there’s no demand.
There’s nothing wrong with not buying nestle stuff or piracy but they’re not boycotts.
Also boycotts don’t work on their own. They gotta be paired with a protest movement, the more militant the better (the option of boycotting covers the non-militant bases).
Digg, I don't even remember why. It's been like 10 years.
@TootSweet I've injested food from chickfila once in my life and entered a walmart four times and purchased something twice. As an adult I've been in Texas twice and spent some money there both times, once on a motorcycle tour and once for a conference. I will not go back again for any reason until they reinstate human rights. Same with Florida and a few other states. I know that there're good people there and in the two businesses I mentioned but I'll go elsewhere, thanks.

Does your Hasbro boycott extend to the products of others licensing rights from them?
Because, though I totally get and agree with your point about Hasbro, having to skip Baldurs Gate 3 would be a huge test of your resolve if you're anything like me 😁
Red Bull (loved their cola) and War Thunder. One has a Nazi Boss and the other is just shitty to its players.
I’m trying to avoid products made in China, with varying success.
Am also vegetarian if I get the choice (which isnt always)
Edit; I appear to also be boycotting fast fashion if unintentionally. I wear clothes until they are worn out and then some
Right now I've completely given up candy and soda for about 3 years now. I hate the business practices of candy companies and how they target children and make their shit as addictive as possible. They use ultra vibrant packaging to get kids eyes to lock to the product and they know kids will beg for it until they get it and they put it on their eye level and on the sides of the checkout lines.
The entire candy thing is just scummy and I hate it so much. I personally see it as legal drugs for children.
Totally boycotting micro$oft (except for leeching from github)
boycotting Israel as much as I can (a medication I depend on comes from there, unfortunately)
Fast food, it's just bad and unhealty
eBay as a buyer, selling stuff there opened my eyes as how much that platform sucks.
AAA game studios, kinda. I just pirate them.

All meat and animal origin products
-Reddit, for obvious reasons
-all food delivery apps, the service is absolute garbage
-I'm vegetarian as long as I'm cooking for myself, for environmental reasons
-a bunch of musicians who proved to be fucking morons in the last 8 years or so
Reddit.
Had an account for 9.5 yrs.
-First they kill all the good 3rd party apps.
-Then I get called a ‘fucking idiot’ for asking a question, but I get a temp suspension for telling the person to fuck off.
I deleted my account. Not going to try to appeal to a site that’s dying. They don’t deserve my input. 😁
