    Blink-182 have decided to boycott FedEx over their continued relationship with the NRA. Good for them.


    .@fedex has chosen to continue its business relationship with the NRA, despite its board member pushing conspiracies against children who survived Parkland. I've directed our representatives to stop using them, and encourage you to do the same. #BoycottFedEx

    I love how conservatives spent so long championing corporations as people, granting them rights of free speech and association (Citizens United, Hobby Lobby, etc.), and are now freaking the fuck out about those rights *gasp* being used against them.

    Also, it's not like we're saying the NRA shouldn't be able to use FedEx. Just don't give its members a preferential discount for being part of a lobbying group that specifically advocates for 18-year-olds getting nearly unfettered access to weapons of war.

    thats why we have a free market, FEDex and NRA are free to choose what they do or dont support, just like blink can boycott fedex if they choose.
