Agreed! But (in the example of the Georgia boycott) who exactly is going to use the tactic you mentioned of forcing a company to bow to China? In concrete terms, how do you see that playing out?
- prepend 7y agoNot OP. But actors and companies calling for boycott of Georgia for unjust abortion laws are not voicing similar boycotts of China over HK, uyghurs, etc. I try to avoid whataboutism, but it’s hard not to notice how boycotting Georgia has a pretty negligible impact to bottom lines, but boycotting China (or even saying things like “freedom for HK”) results in being cut out of China for films. I think the reason we don’t see lots of actors talking about HK is that it could mean that if they are in a future film it will be harder to market in China. Producers know this. Actors know producers know this.
