American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

NEW: A source tells me that response teams for FEMA set to deploy to the South Carolina wildfires are unable to travel because their government issued travel cards have had their limits reduced to $1. FEMA response team cards were supposed to be exempt.

This is exactly how I feel.
the most beneficial effect of many boycotts is on yourself
'but that won't hurt company x' is often irrelevant
I'm taking back some agency
I'm aligning my actions with my beliefs
I feel better for it
that's good enough
in fact, imo it's better than punishment as a motive
