The alternative is to boycott damn near every major company.
Personally, I'm not even against this. I feel like people make this out as harder than it would have to be. There's plenty of alternatives out there. We just need to get people around to discuss them.
Still, you're right that being pragmatic is good. I think a lot of people see companies that post a black square on Twitter as identical to companies that donate millions to far-left political causes. There's obviously different levels, and we should be boycotting the worst offenders.
Good on you for boycotting Procter & Gamble, btw.

Cheers. Just had to add Pepsi and Unilever over the Facebook bullshit. PayPal is more difficult to drop until I can persuade done creators to have an alternative. I already dropped Patreon ages ago for being censorious swine.

I think companies like PayPal are questionable, because if they let you give more money to creators than they actually charge, I'm tentatively okay with that.
We should get more people on SaidIt to join the boycott. What do you think?

Definitely, and encourage creators to join payment methods that aren’t engaging in left wing identitarianism. I’ve been able to continue supporting creators who setup at SubscribeStar.
