MAGA Businesses Platform Leads To Boycotting

 

PublicSquare, a Trumpist on-line marketplace, was designed by its developers to be a safe space where fellow cultists could find businesses that support the Malignant Fascist and his toxic agenda. One of the platform's investors is none other than the Malignant Fascist's #1 son, Junior. Businesses sign up pledging to oppose progressive policies and support "family values," as best represented by the MF himself. Stop laughing. But the scheme to promote cultists' businesses boomeranged because the site also identified businesses for sane America to avoid:

"To be listed on the site, businesses must affirm their commitment to “family values and God-given liberty,” according to PublicSquare’s website, and agree not to support causes at odds with its ideology.

But as President Donald Trump prepares to mark his 100th day back at the White House amid mounting criticism of his new administration and sinking poll numbers, opponents are flipping around PublicSquare's purpose. Across social media, posts about PublicSquare have gone viral – and just not as a tool to support Trump-aligned businesses."

The site enables people to search for MAGAt businesses by ZIP code, and that's allowed people to check on the businesses they've been patronizing, resulting in some surprises, including one customer of a coffee shop she enjoyed going to:

''I was like, you’ve got to be kidding me,' [Janet] Koenig said. 'I just assumed they were one of the good guys. I’ll be sure to tell all my friends not to go.' She now regularly checks PublicSquare before shopping for products, the publication pointed out." (our emphasis)

Another found her dog's vet on PublicSquare:

“'My god I just found out my dog’s vet is on there,' one user wrote in response.

'THANK YOU FOR THIS LIST,' according to another user's post."

By identifying themselves on PublicSquare for the rest of us to see, MAGAt businesses can be avoided. That, plus the damage their cult leader is and will be doing to their businesses with his economic lunacy, will be a lesson in FAFO.
