Businesses boycotted by conservatives
During 2020 some advocated for boycotts of left-wing businesses, or "buy-cotts" if the company supported Trump. Chic-fil-a, which had formerly been at the center of the boycott dispute, abandoned its conservative political positions and therefore was not a major figure in the boycotts and buy-cotts.
Background
Prior to George Floyd's death in late May, 2020, most American businesses had attempted a policy of political neutrality. Following forms of left-wing violence, including riots, businesses declared solidarity with Black Lives Matter and turned to the political left in the hope of positive press coverage from left-wing outlets including CNN, ABC News, and NBC News. Big businesses donated amounts ranging from $1,000,000 in the case of Home Depot to $100 million in the case of Walmart to combat what they alleged was systemic racism within their companies, often accompanied with politically correct company statements.[1] Big Tech and other businesses took action against conservatives, banning support for President Trump or aiming to obstruct his re-election campaign. In August 2020 an instructor at a diversity training event at Goodyear, a company with over 60,000 employees, launched a "zero tolerance" policy banning expression of Trump support or Blue Lives Matter.[2]
