Boycotts And The Limits of Their Political Power

[unspeakablehorror]

I do long-term boycott a few companies (eg. Amazon, Disney, and Nintendo), and short-term boycott others for various reasons, obviously because they've done and continue to do terrible things, but that's more a 'personally fed up with this nonsense' or strategic action type-thing than something I view as a viable strategy for getting these companies to change their behavior long-term.  Most companies are evil.  I think it makes sense to move away from dependence on them as much as practical, but I don't think it makes sense to try to boycott every evil company--because they produce the vast majority of all goods in our society. In order to address the evil these companies do, the structure of society itself needs to change.
