In another string, some members say they avoid doing business with Amazon on moral grounds. We had planned to cancel a visit to Disneyland after Jimmy Kimmel was suspended, although it looks as though he's back on the air, so I guess we'll go to see Mickey and friends after all. I avoid Chick Fil-A since they donate big $$ to anti-gay causes. Basically, I'll avoid businesses I know which spread hate/intolerance. How about you?

I do the same - no to Chick Fil-A. Disney also made it onto my list last week. Pepsi and Target are on there as well. My money, my choice. Vote with your wallet.

If I am aware of the hate and intolerance, in general I will avoid doing business with them.  I avoid Chick-Fil-A and Hobby Lobby.  I recently have cut back on the amount of shopping I do at places like Target and Lowes that have basically caved in to the pressure from the current regime in Washington regarding DEI.  Same thing for Pepsi and Anheuser-Busch products.  Because of backing down to pressure from the conservatives, they no longer sponsor Pride events.  Why should I give these businesses my hard earned money!

When I visited my MAGA brother back in fly-over country, we stopped at Chic-Fil-A, coming from the airport. 

Not my choice, but didn't want to be disagreeable.  From that one and only visit, I don't understand what people are raving about.

I can think of better options for chicken.  Popeyes?   I now have an additional argument beyond moral grounds not to dine there.  

 

Others I avoid include Denny's and Cracker Barrel on historical grounds.  I know they claim to have cleaned up their act, but I still won't.

 

I have been boycotting Target since January.  I may never to back.

I canceled my Washington Post subscription.

I generally avoid all  big corpo and chain like businesses preferring to shop , dine and  sleep in local , mom and pop type of establishments. 7/11 and Foodland in Thailand seem to be noble exceptions but just there
