Verizon wants to back the anti police bit and support BLM, great, all those with half a spine switch to other carriers; Target wants to sell clothing to assist gender confused youth with self harm, super, don't spend another damn dollar in that place; Starbucks wants to weigh in on all things woke, wonderful, don't spend your money there; "Woka-Cola" wants to be all in on the lefty agenda, magnificent, drink something else. It's not that hard and it has an impact, even if it's just to prove to yourself that you have an ounce of integrity to stand up for what you believe. Opposing this crap doesn't mean you have to launch a whole business like at the Daily Wire, but do something. Why continue to give money to companies that openly support those that hate everything about people like me. Will you be able to avoid everything? Of course not, but at least actions like DeSantis is taking let these corporations know that normal people still exist and they are giving up some profits by wading into the political arena.
Problem is, Wall Street is making kissing the DEI/etc/WTFE O-ring a condition of the bridge loans and other capital sources many companies rely on, and activist-run hedge funds like Blackrock and Vanguard are basically using their HUGE share holdings for blackmail saying "do as we say or we'll dump our shares and bankrupt you by cratering your share price."
