It’s a nice thought, but unless toppling Tesla also somehow reverses destruction of the public education system, and also something about the complex systematic, and very much intentional, polarization of individuals through social media feeds then this won’t stop Republicans or Russia in the end.
Think of it more as exercise. It takes a bit for people to get rolling. If we can take down tesla, then we learn we can do more. Revolution doesn’t start at the finish line.
This exactly, and more people need to understand it. A one day boycott of Amazon doesn’t do much to Amazon, especially since many people will simply defer spending to the next day. What it does do is give a simple goal for people to participate who haven’t done this sort of thing before. Then you expand it to longer time periods and more targets.
