As a gen-x women of color, I will never “boycott” MAC. They were one of the first to bring truly saturated color designed for brown girls (and boys). They have highlighted many social issues through the years.

+1

They walk the talk with their offerings and financial contributions.

I sympathize but Lauder owns them now. Not the same company.

Give me a break. Why do you want us to boycott Estée Lauder? Because Ron had a conversation with Trump 10 years about forming *partnerships* with Greenland? Do you think Lauder suggested Trump invade Greenland? Also boycotts are to apply economic pressure to get an actor to do
something. You have failed identify what it is you want them to do.

Exactly. I will have to find an alternative to Mac. Damn. It’s always been difficult finding a foundation that blends with my Black skin tone

You're right about boycotts sticking. My DH started boycotting Exxon in 1989 after the massive oil spill, and he still has it in his mind that it's the last place he'd ever buy gas.

Exxon is still around and doing fine.

With more competition. For almost a decade, Exxon shareholders were holding dead money. I know because I was one of them. It’s only been within the last five or six years that Exxon has pivoted and is a winner, and that’s with the help of mergers and acquisitions.

Who cares?

Buy your stinky oldster crap

"Ron" can go hang for all i care. I don't want to see any of Ron's products.

Now this is where you tell me will by 3 times the amount of their overpriced underperforming stuff to offset me.



Have at it!

Same with the Goya. I’m going to use up what I have of the brands I use, but won’t be buying more. And I’m selling my stock in the company.

Oh sure you are. Like you actually own stock in the company in the first place.

Same! I still don't buy gas at Exxon.

And for every one of you, there are 20 of me who go out of our way to support Goya. I buy their products even though they are more expensive than store brands. You do know that Goya is a leader in supporting efforts to stop child trafficking across the globe, don't you? But this is one of those issues that Democrats conveniently overlook, because so many kids were affected during the Biden years.

If you care about trafficking and still vote Republican, that's nuts.

I have no idea what nonsense you are spouting. If you didn't care, why did you bother posting the OP.

+1/2 - I don't care for the tone above, but Ron Lauder is not responsible for Donald Trump's current actions. This is more of a reflection on Trump than Lauder.

I'll buy with a clean conscience.

Because I can, since you are on a first name basis with Lauder
