BDS Boycott List (Accurate as of 7th May 2025) in c/palestine@lemmygrad.ml

This list is all the companies. It's mostly American companies. There are no British companies on the list that I'm aware of.

The problem with the Boycat app is that it goes too far and lists EVERY single company (which is not a problem if you want to make sure you're not supporting genocide). However, this ends up being overwhelming for the average person. The point of the BDS movement is to have material gain through collective action via targeted boycotts. That's why the list is so small.

They've been taken off the list after they withdrew as a sponsor for the Israeli Football Association - BDS got the result they wanted. It was the same reason that Puma used to be on the list. Reebok now has the contract with the Israeli Football Association which is why they are a priority target now.

As far as I know, Starbucks has never been on the list. It was just a grassroots campaign that got a lot of attention and was never fully endorsed by BDS.

Also included on the BDS list are:

  • Reebok
  • Carrefour
  • AXA
  • Siemens
  • Sodastream
  • Teva
  • Booking.com
  • WiX

I was surprised at how difficult it was to find an up-to-date list of all the targets of the BDS Boycott. The pinned post on the official bds movement Instagram is now outdated. And searching for the list leads to outdated links and apps that don't direct you towards a clear and concise list. More companies have been added to the list. Reebok and Microsoft (which own Xbox) are now boycott targets. Please remember that the BDS boycott works due to it targeting a handful of companies. It is up to you whether you want to target those not on the list.

Let me know if I have missed a company and I will be sure to edit this post and add them to the list.

OP is clearly trolling now. Not worth giving them attention.

I don't understand what you're trying to say?

The original quote is seriously one of my favourite quotes of all time.

Do you think a feudal peasant had a better quality of life than the modern labour aristocratic proletariat? (lemmygrad.ml)
 

I have not looked into any sources on what life was like for a feudal peasant. However, I've heard that peasants had more holidays and rest. I also believe the life of a peasant was more communal and satisfactory with religion being a central feature. This, to me, is a stark contrast to the life of the modern proletariat in the Global North who often lives for work, is more and more isolated, and maybe gets only a month off work. Yes, we have higher life expectancy now (quantity) but I cant help but think that peasants had a better quality of life. Please educate me on this topic and provide some sources to look at. Thank you! 🙏

It took me two takes to notice the cat. That's trippy.

This is the insanity of trying to get treatment on the NHS. in c/comradeship@lemmygrad.ml

Yeah was trying to seek help with mental health on the NHS. Kept getting referred to different people and organisations and eventually just gave up. Been trying to determine if I have ADHD, autism, and/or bipolar. Guess I won't know until something serious happens or I get hospitalised. The NHS just isn't what it used to be.
