Can it, though? I think a key argument being made is that Paypal is essentially without alternative. People may have convulsions on social media and write angry messages to support hotlines, but hardly anybody is in a position to actually reduce their usage of it in order to make a point. This precludes the second-order effect; no first-order effect exists to begin with, because Paypal has no meaningfully limited physical resources that are occupied or rendered unusable by political poop.
