By making Ivanka products harder to find, they basically made it a must-have label. Ban something that was already in moderate demand, and people will go crazy for it.

The "right" is finally fighting back against the politically correct totalitarians on the left.

We are at the stage where if the left finds something offensive or wants to boycott something, the right will will evaluate it, and if they disagree will respond in the opposite direction and support it twice as hard. The right is also now punishing companies with clear leftist agendas with their own boycotts.

I predicted this would end badly and it appears I could be right.

These SJWs are using a foolish approach. If the goal is to change society in some way, the idea is to debate it openly and try to win the battle for people's hearts and minds. When you are running around trying to force it by destroying peoples careers, businesses, lives etc... people are just going to hate you for it even if they have some sympathy for your cause.

Now people on the right are using the same foolish technique.

How does anyone win in this when everyone is boycotting someone?

There's nothing surer, the rich get rich and the poor get poorer. Hey, that could be a song.

I find this hard to believe - Nordstroms dropped her and she doesn't even run the place anymore in a blind trust or something.

I live in liberal so. Cal.
Women in my family who have Nordstrom accounts are boycotting Nordstrom.
What is not to like about Ivanka and Meliana?
Liberals have lost their minds.
