the subreddit for my city has a post about this every so often, and that site is absolutely used to single out the places to avoid. Funny that Huffpost just got around to writing about it

I'm glad they did because I hadn't heard of it before.
my whole group spent the afternoon yesterday checking if any local brands we've been ding business with needed to be yeeted off our shopping lists
Fuck. My real estate agent is here. I hate this place.
Real estate agents are a dime a dozen. Just switch and let them know why.
I'm getting rid of my optometrist because of the site, but not saying why - if they're stupid enough to identify this way, let them so we all know.
In nature, animals warn us that they are poisonous or dangerous by displaying bright colors, warning sounds or by wearing little red hats.
Hey a list of businesses to go fuck up
Or just already the word to your friends and family to avoid the place like a Nazi plague.
Avoidance isn’t really helping anymore cos they keep getting more emboldened

Send the MAGAts to El Salvador
It would not shock me one bit if the ice form whitelists the addresses listed on their website.
I feel lucky - my zip code returned zero results. That said, I'm always down for a good boycott.
Be sure you're searching from the map page. The article strongly implies that you can just search for your zip code in the main search bar, but that's completely wrong. It took me forever to figure out how to get to the map The site is horrid.
The website was made by MAGA so as expected the search doesn't work. You have to use the map, use the +/- buttons to zoom out, center where you're at, and then hit search the area.
First thing to pop up for me is a local hypnosis center lmao
If only that were how they won :'(
Seattle's businesses are mostly sports related for Kraken and Mariners. Do the owners of these teams know how they're connected to white nationalist merchandise? One of the others is a book store that has a lot of genealogy (hmm) and confederate crap.
Safe to assume they know but don’t see it as a problem.
I guess I'm hoping someone will do a deep dive locally into the owners. I know some of the owners wouldn't be cool with it, especially The Kraken. They're minority investors, but still.
The NHL’s Seattle Kraken have added former NFL star Marshawn Lynch and rapper Macklemore as minority investors.
The terms of the investments were not made public. Sports bankers estimate that minority equity stake deals similar to this are generally for 1% of a team or less.
Have you seen Macklemore's video? https://streamable.com/vaj7al
Maybe if enough people raise awareness, it will become a problem. That’s the only thing that really works.
Only 3 hits for my zip code & none of them are anything I'd use.
I use GoodUniteUs for the same purpose while grocery shopping.
Same, thank god. I think I can do without tactical CrossFit or beef tallow candles.
