We need a critical mass boycott that has actual change. Lots are prepping to boycott all Kellogg’s products starting April 1 (giving time to prep, but not bulk buy) for 3 months.

Hopefully this kinda shit actually starts to make a real dent. Causing actual crash, or actual positive change.

Every person that votes against companies with their wallets makes a dent. I think the economy is helping by making more people HAVE to start making some tough spending decisions. Companies are pretty stupid to not be considering that as they continue to try to fuck people over more each day.

I’m not entirely convinced. The bud light bullshit was MASSIVE and their stock only took a tiny hit, and that was a right wing thing which means the participation percentage was massive.

How was the bud light thing massive? People were buying Bud just to pour it out and then just buying other products in Inbev’s portfolio. People don’t understand that 85% of the beer in most liquor stores is a split between Coors and Inbev portfolios.

Well I haven’t heard about the Kelloggs thing. Everyone heard about the bud light thing. For months.

I’ve found most people are more talk than action. I am almost to the point of having to create my own supply chain as my boycott list continues to grow over the years lol

Ethical consumption is basically impossible, you gotta draw what lines you can.

Though I do need to refresh my memory of what nestle owns, because fuck them in particular.

ghostrider2112 ,

Yes, it is virtually impossible in the U.S. anyways. I’m mostly joking, but I do have a very long list. lol

Good reminder for me too, thanks! I haven’t memorized the full list yet en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nestlé_brands

Fuck me they own Purina, which is fantastic pet food. And stouffer’s, which is terrible but delicious and fast human food.

Welp, I’ll forego the frozens but my cats are more important than my morals.

ghostrider2112 ,

I agree on Stouffer’s, but I knew about that one as I live in the same region as the original US factory for them. However, I stick with whatever knock-off brand looks best these days. Yes, being intimately familiar with the finickiness of cats, that is the only option.
