What’s the point in Boycotting?

It seems like everyone forgot about standing against major corporations that eliminate DEl and supporting small businesses-only to turn around and go back a few days later for something like cheaper cake. What's the point of starting a movement if everyone abandons it so quickly?

Modern society doesn't know that even one hundred years ago basic conveniences were not even possible to get unless you had a huge amount of ambition or privilege

A huge amount of people weren't obsessed with history as kids and it shows.

A lot of American history that is taught in schools is just a whole bunch of propaganda anyways so I wouldn't doubt that people got brainwashed along the way, me on the other hand I have always been someone who is enjoyed history outside of America and enjoys historical tragedies and all the negatives of the world, so I kind of know most of the stuff that America does not want to teach.

Oh, I know. I just mean I read everything remotely historical the library had, along with documentaries and shit. I was a nerd.
