Would you boycott a business if it was owned by a communist?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

And let me give you something that you can have against communism since you seem ignorant about it - IT ABOLISHES RELIGION.

Not neccesarily. That only happened in Albania. What about all those Catholic priests fighting with communists in Latin America?

[MaC]

such things do not exist.  The closest thing would be ownership an anarcho-socialist system-but even then I'd be boycotting the business by the group of them rather than a single owner.

Well, in theory they may not be a hypocrite.  What if they were running a business to build up a war chest that would be put toward a future workers' revolution?  There's no shame in living within the context of the system you happen to be in.

Well thus, the whole movement would be practicing hypocracy. They would be raising money via a private business, to fund a revolution that would eventually eliminate private business.

No one ever said liberalism made sense.

Liberalism and communism are the same thing?

One's just one step away from another.

Then logically speaking, conservatism and theocratic fascism are just one step away from each other.

LOL.  Communist Ownership.  What a concept.  Good, these boycott threads have finally run their course, grounding themselves on a logical contradiction in terms.

But just in case they haven't, I'll vote NO again.

A communist wouldn't own a business. They would push for the state to own it.

LOL

Seriously, I probably would boycott because I wouldn't want my money going to their causes

A lot like Elaine not wanting to go to Poppy's restaurant on Seinfeld
