History is hard + boring. I'd much random make up some random words that sound good and allow me to clutch my video game pearls for a bit longer. Remember, kids - never do anything that involves morality, effort, a sense of community or, well, anything really!
Sarcasm aside, if you were ever wondering "what's the downside to this huge push toward unrestricted individualism in society?", you're seeing it right here. Everyone is so convinced that it's every person for themselves that we're not even holding companies accountable any more. We hand-wave it as "oh that's just one individual" when said individual(s) is literally the highest ranked manager of the company. That, of course, has always been the entire point of capitalistic individualism. Convince people of this and suddenly deregulating everything and never holding exploiters accountable makes perfect sense.
You can't google, either?

Also not sure how the "progressive" label applies. Denouncing pedophilia is "progressive" now?
I guess lots of conservatives (around the globe, not just the US) are knowingly rallying behind a likely sex abuser in 45 so perhaps that's the world we live in at this moment?
Well from my point of view you are expending effort on pointless boycotts that only serve to help the system which creates the evil you claim to be opposed to.
So what do you propose we do instead?
