Such a facepalming concept, how the hell can boycots be illegal.

Maybe breaking a contract can be illegal, obviously sit ins, and vandalism can be illegal. But no sane person can call not buying something illegal.

Hell isn't that exactly what the capitalist class is supposedly claiming is the one thing that's supposed to guide the free market. IE we don't need regulations, companies wont drop toxic waste in your water, because that would discourage you from buying their products.

It seemt to me this flows from Musk declaring that advertisers leaving Shxitter was illegal after he said fuck you to them and that he didn't need them. It's the most childish, entitled behavior possible. Think of it like a 4 year old temper tantrum and it all start to make sense.

But I can’t afford a Tesla! I must continue my de facto Tesla boycott because I am a filthy poor.

Corporate news, after backing trump for a decade, pretending the word fart clouds he manufactures are anything but the demented ramblings of an old rapist fraud.

He's a moron. We will be saying this often for the foreseeable future.

He's only a moron in most of the country.

In the south, he's basically smarter than Einstein (not that they know who that is).

I live in the south and have seen far too many examples that are exactly as you say. I unfortunately have to associate with several of these idiots.

At the risk of saying the dreaded words, both sides honestly have a problem with calling anything they believe to be unjust "illegal" with no real understanding of the law. The key difference being that it's the fucking president on this side and randoms on the internet and in town halls and in the media saying it on the other.

It's really hard to see that as an equal issue when one of those sides is literally in charge of creating & enforcing the law.

People proclaiming stupidities is a problem that is magnitudes smaller than an administration with the ability and will to perform stupidities

I mean, I definitely wasn't implying it was an equal issue lol.

Buddy, on the list of things Trump does not understand, "Law" is like #150
