I'm not talking about boycotts in general, like say the Montgomery Bus Boycott, because we know those can work. I'm talking about "Company that sells product made me mad" boycotts.
Whether it's past ones like the infamous Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2/Left 4 Dead 2 boycotts, or more recently like the brewing chud Pride Month boycotts (And if we're being brutally honest here on the flipside: The all-but-in-name boycott of that Harry Potter game a month or 2 ago), all of them seem to universally fail spectacularly and not impede their targets in any way.
Boycotts only work if they are broad.
You want to boycott Nabisco water? You need to get restaurants and grocery stores on your side and have it be the full range of their products.
The Bud Light “protests” worked becauseit was over a logo not an actual core business system.
Like you could force BP to change their logo much easier than get them to stop drilling for oil.

I’m just anti Activision.
I’ll end up having to be anti Microsoft.
But there is no cool games under capitalism.
