You should be every day voting with your wallet to prevent money flowing into the wrong hands. Boycott these ALEC members who non-stop fund the republican war chests:

  • FedEx
  • UPS
  • Motorola
  • Anheuser Busch
  • American Express
  • Bose
  • Chevron
  • Marlboro
  • Sony
  • Texaco
  • Boeing (fly on Airbus instead, see how to boycott Boeing)

Quit driving. It’s not just the fuel burn that harms the environment. When you buy fuel, you fund the oil companies who fund republicans. Trump’s 4th biggest cash source came from oil giants. There is nothing worse for the environment than republicans.

Find out which companies funded Trump’s war chest directly, and boycott them.

There is likely a long list of banks. Banks love republicans in general. We need to get that list and get people off those banks. People should be using cash anyway since banks finance fossil fuels, private prisons, and republicans. In the very least, if you give a shit and you are not a deadbeat then you will avoid using these banks.

(edit) Home Depot, Disney, …, probably others. That’s a long article not an easy list so work required.

grab your wallet is an election cycle out of date, and sadly it’s in Google docs (so use Tor). But it still has a bit of relevance.

Europeans— You can take these actions too. You couldn’t vote for Kamala but you always have the power to vote with your feet. The first ALEC list is international entities.

US folks— In addition to the ALEC list at the top, the following are also ALEC members which (I believe) are US-only:

  • CenturyLink
  • Charter Communications
  • Farmers/Foremost
  • Geico
  • LMG (Liberty Mutual/Safeco)
  • Nationwide Insurance
  • PNC bank
  • StateFarm
  • TimeWarner
  • activistPnk@slrpnk.netOPM

    Do they? I’ve been boycotting Nestlé for about a decade now, and they seem to be utterly indifferent to the fact.

    I’ve been doing the same. Glad to hear you are not taking your own advice. I have also voted in elections going back decades, and not a single election has been influenced by my vote alone. Should I stop voting?

    Has it stopped Israel’s invasion of Gaza yet?

    You may have misunderstood the goal of the boycott. The goal was to stop a piece of the private sector from supporting the IDF. It worked so well that it forced a corporation to buy ~130 or so stores just to end the boycott. The boycotter’s demands were satisfied.

    The Israel boycott led to the German grocer Lidl to struggle to sell Israel-sourced produce (which is often grown on Palestinian land). Lidl was losing money so they resorted to fraud and got caught labeling Israel-sourced produce as coming from a different country. Aldi North had the same problem and they resorted to opacity (removing the source tag when it was Israel). Of course it leads to people boycotting the whole store. Less revenue for Israel means less tax and greater dependency on the US, who is under pressure to keep Israel on a leash. Expecting a war to end due to a boycott is unrealistic. But if you do your part you can be part of the pressure in the right direction.

    BDS is regarded as such a threat that the US gov has actually banned boycotting Israel. If the only effect is to “give people good feelings”, why ban it?
