I suspect you’re missing the wood for the trees there - are there any local vendors or farmers markets?
Yes, they are undeniably more expensive, but it is satisfying as fuck paying slightly over the going rate to poke some big company in the eye, even if it is barely felt at the individual level.
Without sounding accusatory or negative in any way, it’s important to remember that this may be coming from a position of privilege. There are folks who won’t be able to participate in this boycott. It’s for those with the means to do so.

Shop at Aldi if you have one locally or Costco.
Aldi is not US based and Costco has been the least evil of the big chains. But definitely Aldi first.

Aldi did the same thing this boycott of Target is about. So no, not Aldi first.
Aldi did donate to the innauguration fund tho if i recall correctly

Well, I wouldn’t assume that the local vendors and farmers are less likely to be supporting Trump.

No I appreciate being checked. It’s always good to be given multiple views on things and I appreciate your view. Thank you.
