social justice against companies?

what are your feelings on [not?] supporting a company because of things unrelated to the products/services you like and purchase from them?

but you hear they are ass holes in some way

would you continue to use their product/service?

Convenience plays a factor. Say there is a starbucks outside where I work and a costa a mile away i'm still going to use the starbucks regardless, unless they did something truly diabolical

I wouldnt consider that social justice, thats just not giving your money to companies because you dont like them as a person based on merits.

For example, Jay Leno doesnt buy Ferrari's because he absolutely hates how they treat their customers. He still likes Ferrari's either way but he doesnt give them his money/exposure.

When leftist cucks start only buying from black owned businesses or boycotting a business because, "they are white devils," is where the SJW chit is

This

How replaceable is the product? I'm really not one to go very far out of my way abandoning a product I like and need unless it's pretty easy to swap for an alternative.

yeah, because that's capitalism, if you give me the best product for the price, that's what I care about.
better question would is would you stop buying a product due to wokeness? Bud light for example, I'd still drink that over the other chitty beers...
And I still buy Nike chit when its on sale because I've always liked the product
at the end of the day most companies are probably the same, greedy and doing bad chit in the world, no one rich and making a profit is holy and pure

Kind of agree with this too.

On top of it all, who the f*ck has time to even be aware of sh*t like Bud Light's woke campaigns? I've got way too little time to keep a running tally of who needs to be avoided because they marketed some dumb sh*t. The people worrying about that stuff have nothing going for them in their life to dedicate so much energy to it. Like honestly... tell me you have nothing important to do without telling me you have nothing important to do.

I say I would but in reality, I dont support many companies to start with.

I dont buy north face or nikes or anything like that.

Should walmart start acting up I might be in trouble though. i go there all the time.

its smart for most companies to be woke or socially aware, pretty sure the people blowing money are young individuals who are typically woke, look at apple. I've had so many chicks tell me they were relieved when I sent a blue text over a green text lol...
budweiser was stupid for it though, LGBT's and woke kids are never gonna drink your chit, its always gonna be college dudes or old poor country dudes...
