You don't think product selection is a form of activism?

  It's not really comparable. When activists voluntarily face, and especially when they are in fact, subject to substantial hardship and punishment is when you start changing hearts and minds. Otherwise it's either ignored or generates contempt. Does it suck that that's what it takes to get people to seriously engage with an issue? Sure. But if that weren't the case the issues that need addressing probably wouldn't arise in the first place. People need the consequences to be presented in clear, stark, human terms, to cut through the caucauphony of rhetoric.

    Ok, so there are forms of activism that are more effective or involve more personal risk. That doesn't answer the question.

  No, not in the least.

  It can be, but not by default.
