Just curious as to why you would want to shop there now because of this boycott? Not judging just curious.

Like it seems you didn’t shop there but now it’s contrarian to do you want to.

Conservatives are literally only contrarians. If the left does anything, the right only wants to do the opposite no matter what it is. There is nothing the right will ever do to say "that's a great idea!" Because that's considered losing to them.

"Hey let's give kids free school lunch!" "NO! That makes them only want handouts and the children should work".

They have the mental capacity of a child and it's hurting everyone.

I wouldn’t want to generalise everybody but I honestly can’t comprehend how anybody would want to act like that.

Like my views are based on what I believe is right and what a society should be based on my morals and not just the opposite of some other people. I find it odd.

I don’t even know if I believe conservatives to be bad people and more I assume they’ve been lied to and it’s hard to get them to see the truth.
