re: #264 Charmingly Persistent (EmmaAnne)

So we definitely shouldn’t try then. Also, we shouldn’t call our republican senators because they only listen to donors. And we shouldn’t vote, because it’s all gerrymandered anyway.

Or, you know, we could do what we can can where we can and sometimes it makes difference. I don’t know if Twitter will change. But we got Jack’s attention, so the chances are a little bit better than if we hadn’t bothered.

Thanks for reminding me of what I wanted to reply to. (Watch that participle dangle!)

The point of a one day boycott is to show that a boycott can happen. It should be followed by a major buy-in the next day, to emphasize the smallness of the day before.

I try to remember to eat grapes because we boycotted them forever when I was a kid in California (in support of the United Farm Workers, who I follow on twitter—everything comes around to something.)
