So boycotting (and suing) cake shops for not making gay marriage cakes… this is any different how?
the key difference is it’s good for people who refuse to respect basic human rights to be boycotted and socially ostracized for doing so, whereas conservatives pretty much exclusively do boycotts because they’re mad they can’t restrict other people’s human rights
If I discriminate at work, I’ll get fired. If I don’t discriminate at work, I won’t get fired. This is not a double-standard. It’s THE standard. Pretending otherwise just emboldens discrimination.
Do you really think that’s what the article was saying? Their boycotting farms? I guess you also think they are boycotting ranches, and fisheries too? Or many… just maybe… the author was using something so common we have name for it? Hyperbole

Its not literal. Its just poking fun at the fact that culture-war-conservatives are boycotting more and more things for dumb reasons
