At this point, what am I not boycotting? lol

I guess this is the abridged no-go list:

• Nestle (duh)
• BP (still haven’t forgiven them for lubricating the Gulf of Mexico and being like “oops, sorry”)
• Verizon (injecting tracking IDs into customer web traffic to sell to advertisers while also charging me $60/mo for 2 GB of data – I’m a product or a customer. I will not be both.)
• RWNJ-owned businesses (Chick-fil-A, In-n-Out, Hobby Lobby, Applebees, etc)
• AT&T (After so many years, I forget exactly why, but they’re just evil)
• The entire states of Florida and Texas
• The lottery (I’d have the same payout and more fun just setting the money on fire)
• Microsoft (It’s MY computer, not yours)
• Apple (Overpriced hardware, control-freak walled garden, everything needs a damn $29 dongle, etc)
• Reddit, Facebook, Twitter (also blocked in firewall)
• Amazon (except the 2-3 times a year they give me a free month of Prime and I buy all my stuff, take the free 1-2 day shipping and cancel before they bill me)

Late additions:

• Exxon (knew about climate change for over 40 years; spent millions promoting misinformation/denialism)
• Bank of America (used to work there - will never bank there. Oh, you’re poor? There’s a fee for that - several, actually)
