merely that most recent ones have been directed at things meant for entertainment and personal use. Most are, the Sugar Boycott surprisingly boycotted sugar produced by slavery, the Boycott against South Africa boycotted against buying goods(for personal use) from South African companies, and included artists refusing to play gigs there and criticism of artists that did, sometime leading to them losing gigs elsewhere like Laura Branigan who lost bookings in the USafter playing in SA(entertainment) An angry billionaire tweeting their evil bullshit can be, but isn’t perceived as such by the general populace enough to avoid purchasing a game licensed from them. After Kanye West’s anti-semitic tweets, a boycott of his brands like Yeezy began, eventually leading to many companies to cut their ties(endorsements etc) this led to him losing his Billionaire status, this shows people can and will get inspired to boycott licensed products if a billionaire tweets some bigoted shit
