I think so. The term "boycott" is also mis-appropriated by these folks. I find it really slightly ridiculous that consumers are "boycotting". Is it really called "boycotting"? It's merely the same as not buying a grocery store item because it's a little bit expensive. They are they appropriating ideologies of political movement when this act is not political at all and merely seeks to re-affirm the same socio-political-economic system? Marx will be turning in his grave.

LOL
