I went to a gay camp earlier this year and a couple of the RVs had starlinks. They don’t care and they don’t think their dollars matter.
In fact I had a whole chat with my boss today about Chick Filet, he asked if I was boycotting (and said his gay daughter is too). He then launched into this spiel about how you’re always supporting evil somehow so it doesn’t matter.
I’m like, yeah but not one penny of my money goes to them, and that’s all I can care about.
When this comes up, which isn’t that often, I typically ask them where the line is. Like, presumably there’s something a company could do that’s so evil that they wouldn’t support it. What is it, for them? Crushing babies live on TV? That’s probably too far, right? So then we can sort of do a binary search between that line and where we are, and try to find what is too much for them. I suspect for many people it’s “am I personally, immediately, harmed by this, in a way I can’t rationalize?”
