Should we also boycott companies that basically do what Trump wants by making other nations pay the US tariffs? E.g. in the link you can read about Sony (Japan) and Xbox (Microsoft - US). I know Microsoft is already American, but it is another major manufacturer that is hiking prices globally.
Those are so far few companies, but I read that some clothing brands and even food markets are discussing about this option.
What do you think?
The loss of your revenue has already been factored into the decision. They know some people will think and act as you do. It’s just a question of how many.
Maybe you can get enough people to move the needle, I guess. But I’m pretty sure they have a pretty good grasp on how the silent majority will behave
True, but… a) doesn’t mean their predictions are accurate and b) even if it was true, you should do the boycott because if the fact that it “doesn’t matter” makes you not boycotting its kinda self fulfilling prophecy. Always, and I really mean ALWAYS, wherever there is this kind of “realization” you still have to proceed because otherwise there is no chance for change.
