Re: you are trolling again I see....

NO ONE IS SPECIFICALLY CALLING FOR A BOYCOTT

I know, they are denying it, but then they make a tool that is designed to use for boycotting. Making a BOYCOTT (naughty) vs. PATRONIZE (nice) list and paying to host it on a public site is encouraging a boycott.

The issue we have is they wont own up to it.


If someone chooses not to take their money to one of the businesses mentioned, they're not required to. So why are you and paft treating this issue as if it's some horrible crime?


No one has suggested its a horrible crime, those are your words.
For the fourth time, the issue is that they deny its a boycott, but then are offering tools to boycott. Its a coy lie.


THEY are letting the consumer decide

This is true of every boycott in the history of the free market. No one has EVER been forced to boycott - by definition.

They are enabling and encouraging the consumer to boycott the naughty and patronizing the nice by creating such a list in the first place.

Its not being explicitly stated, that's the issue.

Right. They produced a tool used to boycott naughty biz, and then deny its a boycott cause that would make them look mean.
