    Glad to hear about this site today, gave the few businesses with actual Internet presence in my area bad reviews for their bad business practices of supporting Nazis

    I’ve had business owners complain to me before for reviewing them without being a customer but Google has backed me up and left my review up every time (I check every so often): any interaction with your company is grounds for review, including ads (and people driving company vehicles, which is where many of my bad reviews come from)

    In nature, animals warn us that they are poisonous or dangerous by displaying bright colors, warning sounds or by wearing little red hats.

    the subreddit for my city has a post about this every so often, and that site is absolutely used to single out the places to avoid. Funny that Huffpost just got around to writing about it

    Only 3 hits for my zip code & none of them are anything I’d use.

    I use GoodUniteUs for the same purpose while grocery shopping.

    I feel lucky - my zip code returned zero results. That said, I’m always down for a good boycott.

      Be sure you’re searching from the map page. The article strongly implies that you can just search for your zip code in the main search bar, but that’s completely wrong. It took me forever to figure out how to get to the map The site is horrid.

      The website was made by MAGA so as expected the search doesn’t work. You have to use the map, use the +/- buttons to zoom out, center where you’re at, and then hit search the area.

    Seattle’s businesses are mostly sports related for Kraken and Mariners. Do the owners of these teams know how they’re connected to white nationalist merchandise? One of the others is a book store that has a lot of genealogy (hmm) and confederate crap.

        I guess I’m hoping someone will do a deep dive locally into the owners. I know some of the owners wouldn’t be cool with it, especially The Kraken. They’re minority investors, but still.

        The NHL’s Seattle Kraken have added former NFL star Marshawn Lynch and rapper Macklemore as minority investors.

        The terms of the investments were not made public. Sports bankers estimate that minority equity stake deals similar to this are generally for 1% of a team or less.

        Have you seen Macklemore’s video? https://streamable.com/vaj7al

          Maybe if enough people raise awareness, it will become a problem. That’s the only thing that really works.
