Economic Blackout: Will a 24-hour boycott make a difference? - Lemmy.World

no
To the people thinking “but a huge dip in their numbers on this one day will scare them”: These megacorporations have set themselves up for consumers to be dependent on them. Even if we have a great turnout for this one-day boycott, it’s still a boycott that asks negligible sacrifice from consumers. The corporations won’t be worried that a big one-day boycott means consumers are poised to actually do real damage to them.
yeah usually the point of a boycott is to put financial pressure on a corporation or institution until specific demands are met
