Or could be people are just going through each one to show what businesses and owners donated to it. Which...I dunno, I don't think it's an issue. If people are upset and you lose more business than you gain then that's on you.
This stuff happens all the time for businesses on a smaller scale and more individual actions. Business takes an action and some people get mad at it. Toronto Zoo is continuing the vaccination passport and people are calling for them to be cancelled. Collective Arts is the same thing (as they are on federal land so they have to) and they are getting backlash.
It's not out of the ordinary businesses get 'consequences' (right or wrong) based on actions they take. LCBO is losing a ton of money on inventory with not selling Russian Vodka. Consequence for a stance they are taking.
I don't get why people are getting so heated on this. He knew the protest was illegal on some level on Feb2nd (when he donated) and at that time he saw the wrong flags being waved. He chose not to withdrawal the donation (which you can), now he's getting questioned over it. If he loses business, sponsors, work opportunities I think that's on him. It's not like these level of consequences aren't new for corporations. You saw it with BLM and with Donald Trumps re-election donation list.
Gotta be careful what you do when you donate to any cause, let alone polarizing causes.
Have any of yall seen many websites have long threads teaching trolls how to make fake accounts of neighbors or folks at work they don't like using Kijiji phones or burner they buy for $5 with no SIM cards and public Wifi like a starbucks or Library and then slowly pretend to go crazy? It basically makes identity theft untraceable unless the trolls take the phones home with them to use on their home WIFI....Yeah this sort of internet troll guerilla war thing is going to get ugly and scares the shit out of me
The websites like 4chan are pretty much instructing people to buy Gift card Visa's with Cash so its untraceable, make fake emails of people you don't like with their place of employment "[email protected]", and use this technique to donate so next time something like this happens so someone you do not like is going to have their name on a list.
Yeah this sort of internet troll guerilla war thing is going to get ugly and scares the shit out of me
