I dare you to try a reverse boycott

By Jason Williams

This month we saw people burning their NIKE shoes in protest over their Kaerpernick ad. We saw Democrats call to boycott In-and-Out Burger because they gave to the Republican Party, despite the fact that they also previously gave to Democrats.

I think it is more enduring and rewarding to do a ‘buycott’ over a boycott. Put your time and money into the companies and organizations you believe in.

I did it this month with Tim Allen’s Last Man Standing sitcom. Fox Television just revived this canceled series. I did not know this show existed until now. I was taken aback at how hilarious it is watching Tim Allen (who plays a conservative, blue collar super-outdoorsman) raise three daughters and deal with life issues and political correctness. It unusually high family values for a sitcom and the conservative humor is downright funny.

The new season (back from being cancelled) starts October 11th. As a ‘buycotter’ I made sure to purchase the previous seasons and I encourage you to watch it.

 

I love being a buycotter.

When conservative/high moral films come out like ‘Hacksaw Ridge‘ and ‘I Am Not Ashamed‘, I end up buying a dozen DVDs and giving them away to friends because I want Hollywood to produce more.

Speaking of buycotts…
