    People will stock up the day before and binge the day after. It’s not effective or realistic. This is slacktivism. It’s not pessimism to tell you that it’s a dumb plan.

      Like I already said, no, they do not. The sales volume was lower on the days before and after too. The boycott actually changed consumer habits for a while there - people were buying only what they needed and refrained from all other spending.

      I mean if you refrain from going to a cafe bar on friday, it’s not like you are going to make up for it on saturday. Same goes for all “luxury” items basically.

        You armchair Redditors are ridiculous.

        People with experience will tell you how something works and you’ll ignore it in favor of the first thing that comes into your mind. Enjoy your ignorance.
