Maybe I’m just cynical, but I feel like everyone cancelling is going to forget about this in a few months when the news cycle moves on and a new Star Wars show comes out or something.
Has a disorganized boycott like this ever worked? (honest question)
Target was affected by boycotts in a way that other retailers are definitely aware of.
Target definitely took a hit, but I think that actually proves the point of the question. The backlash was loud and visible, but do we know that shoppers haven’t already returned to normal now that it’s out of the current news cycle?
Yeah man, otherwise we wouldn't be participating in this conversation right?
