The rights method means the company is drained slowly and gives time for those that only work there a chance to bail and find new work while the company doesn't realise how bad the situation is before it's too late

The left's method is like dropping fireworks into someone's bedroom, it's loud, flashy and means people can't escape the company because everyone is now watching them not knowing what caused it

I would argue that the "right's method" also doesn't take into account the ESG money propping these companies up as they shit all over their customers.

Think that's coming close to running out as writings on the wall, Disney is failing, BLM is going bankrupt, huge layoffs in the tech industry.

I think the golden goose is finally running dry.

The right's method is far more structurally damaging, while the Left's is a more tactical attack.

The Left is going to cause people some immediate damage, but they'll move on to their next issue soon. For the most part, your objective is to counter their tactic and let them memory hole themselves

The Right's issue is far more dangerous. Thousands of people just don't say anything. They pull their money, and they don't say a word, so you can't even study the problem and come up with a solution to appease the customers.

Those surveys you fill out, where you rant and rave about how bad your service was? Those are actually important and actually read. There is nothing more terrifying to a company than losing vast sums of money and literally no one will tell you why. It causes panic, and serious structural damage if they can't figure out how to stop the bleeding.

Considering the structural control the left has while the right has control of the raw resources and manufacturing while the left dominates the services industry, the divergence of tactics make sense.

As the right can easily rebuild while the left would lose EVERYTHING if the right gets enough people to do this for long enough.

Since they are operating from a basis of power acquisition, they literally can't build. That is the winning strategy. The Left are naturally suicidal and self-destructive, and need conquest to survive. That's why containment is actually a good strategy. They implode if they can't expand. Which is why everyone else has to build out of the Leftist catastrophe.

In an ideal world where Marketing wasn't entirely compromised, they would be able to figure it out. That's literally their job. Unfortunately as Gizortnik has pointed out several times, they are entirely compromised.

losing vast sums of money and literally no one will tell you why

Stop hiring Ivy League graduates.

No, they aren't. They're used to provide "metrics" so they know who's going on the layoff list.

Besides, no one should be filling out surveys with any honesty anyway. Pollute their results with made-up answers. Make those Public Relations fucks actually work for their money.

Leftists have no money so they can't boycott any more than usual.

Also lasts about 3-5 seconds. Target just needs one virtue tweet to get them all back

No-one at Target is going to lose a paycheck because of that, innocent employees can get out just the same either way.

This isn't some moral highground. One is more pro-active and more damaging to their bottom line and the other is just easier.
