I'm in the US and people have been recommending this site for weeks and I don't get it.
Why blindly trust them? There's almost no info about how they arrive at their ratings and no sources provided anywhere. These could be completely made up numbers for all we know.
I wish there was a better site to use for this purpose because this one leaves so much to be desired.
They also want you to sign up for the website, so who knows what they do with this data. They're linking your name and email to who you shop with, on a platform that knows you're interested in politically motivation or shopping alternatively.
I guess there's no better alternative for now, so take what you get.
If you're open to doing a bit more work, https://www.opensecrets.org/ might be a good resource to look up political affiliations of corporate PACs and lobbyists.
Edit: must have messed something up, meant to reply to unsettlinglymoist's https://lemmy.world/comment/15849319 comment not the OP.
