I already don’t even have a Disney+, Hulu, or ESPN+ account. So if you are trying to say I should participate and cancel my subscriptions I literally can’t.
My point still stands: Boycotts barely do much at all. They can be a small boost to a political project if they are done alongside something more substantial but otherwise whatever they accomplish is essentially washed away in the noise eventually if its the only thing done.
And at worst, they can be a form of slacktivism. Satiating one’s feeling that they need to contribute to a cause without meaningfully actually doing so.
Better methods would be: attempting to induce shame in those working at Disney and getting them to resign, harassing their CEO, spreading propaganda about the content of the company itself that actually hurts their bottom line, and <multiple tactics redacted for legal reasons>.
Hell, merely promoting alternative content would even be better than a boycott. Then you are satiating people with something other than Disney slop for who knows how long so they don’t even have to make the decision of going without all while promoting smaller companies/organizations or creators.
