This strategy is so successful, it brought down Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Philip Morris, Frito-Lay, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, Monsanto, and Boeing.

People voting with their wallet are why Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Philip Morris, Frito-Lay, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, Monsanto and Boeing are still in business.
And people voting with their wallet have led to literally hundreds of thousands of companies going out of business.
So yeah, it is successful.
You might need to read up on the concept of a monopoly.
Possibly you might need to.
Ah yes, people voted with their wallets, some people just have much larger wallets than others.
Such a bunch of nonsense, among other things because it ignores the government's role in the sucess of all those businesses.

They think differently precisely because they're wrong.
They're wrong.
Or perhaps the individual's dollar is not really that effective. It's like plastic recycling -- it is a way to make the consumer feel like it is their job to fix things that they really have no responsibility for or control over.
The individuals isnt, but as soon as you attempt to organise a widespread boycott they will come for you. BDS type movements are sucessful, that's why they often get so much push back.
