When it is impossible to do, because of lack of money/resources/etc, that is a separate conversation. But the reality is many times it is not impossible to boycott a very bad company, we just don’t want to do it.

The reality is all capitalism is evil, so every company has its issues. but one thing we can do to make our world a bit better is boycott certain particularly bad companies. This requires us to sometimes go without. This is genuinely very hard sometimes.

Say I call for people to boycott Starbucks b/c of their union busting practices.
I can hear the response now: “Other companies also Union bust so they’re not unique. Some people have so few joys in life except for a cup of coffee, & punishing poor people for getting a cup of coffee is wrong”

Many people genuinely mean well, and are trying their best. But using woke/sjw language to prove that you actually are fine to continue to do [thing] isn’t the best way to go about anything in my opinion

Many people use this technique to make it so that they don’t have to change their behavior, even if their behavior is harmful, because they found a “woke” way to justify it

Arkansas, which has a very strong conservative population, approves of their libraries. Don't let the M4L/proud boys/tea party/etc groups tell you that people don't like libraries. We like them a whole lot more than we like the politicians!

Some people are better than others at relaying information, some people are great at summing up stuff, but if you rely on social media to form all your opinions you WILL not have all the context. Please read books and essays etc to get better informed

I am not an expert on this topic, and I am still learning and growing. I also know my followers don't follow me because of my opinions on this topic, but rather libraries. But the dehumanization of people, especially children, is something that we should all fight against.

In general, I do not trust people that only research using social media or youtube. I understand this is a complicated topic, and you may be wondering where to begin, but please don't begin and end at social media discourse.
