How can we get a movement going to boycott Texas?

We need to get big companies that have offices in Texas to look into moving their operations out of the state. We need sports teams to boycott the State.

I will never set foot in Texas or buy anything made in Texas.

You should start by boycotting gasoline.

I'm sure once you plead your case to all the CEOs who have recently relocated their operations to Texas for their business friendly climate will pull up stakes and immediately move back to the blue hellholes they came from...

5. How successful have boycotts been over the years?

I think it is more of a feel-good thing.

Pink ***** hats and Haindmaidens Tale costumes are the answer.

This one mentions bands not playing anywhere in Texas.  How many places are opening up concert venues again?  There are more, but I know it's still low.  Why don't you want your leftist faux-alternative bands to make a living?

Yeah. It'd be a real shame if coke-addled celebrities didn't have anywhere to take their underaged groupies that get knocked-up.

Empty out Austin, Houston, the Rio Grande Valley and South Dallas!  Send 'em to California where their kind are liked!

"Boycotts don't work" is not necessarily true.  They do NOT work when initiated by the left.  So far, Conservatives or at least NOT liberal boycotts:

* Got whoopie goldberg removed as spokething for Nutrisystem or Weight Watchers (cannot remember which)
* dixie chicks were chased out of the country scene
* nfl/nba keep dropping like rocks
* purple haired rapinho is all but out for subway - definetly out as spokesthing
* "buycott" of Chik-fi-let has been very successful
* cfnn ratings hover in the basement

But it takes a LOT to get Conservatives moving to do boycotts.

It is also really hard to move large mountains like Coca Cola (which owns many beverages people do not even know about) and others.
