    Did any of them involve a massive government scandal involving violation of basic rights supposedly guaranteed by said government?

    I’ll also take it with a grain of salt, but the difference here is that I personally know people who have cancelled. With prior boycotts I never really did, save for maybe some people shopping at Target less.
