    I think leaving would be an over reaction.

    Edit: I hope all of you downvoters don’t use WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google Search, Android, iOS, Amazon, etc, etc. Otherwise, you’re a bunch of hypocrites. Every single major tech CEO gave Trump $1 million and SAT at his inauguration.

      Eh if quitting or stopping use of products and services required perfect circumstances then nothing would be quit, and you might as well be saying nobody should do anything because of being labeled a hypocrite. Pretty much the same as arguing stanchly for apathy and inaction.

      Realistically though people cut what they can if a decent substitute presents itself. So when those rare opportunities come I say take it and quit products you might have issue with. Real life doesn’t often present perfect gift wrapped hypocrite free opportunities, so if there’s an exit take it. Better than inaction because of the hypocrite label dictating you doing nothing. A tiny step is better than none.

      But he’s practically a nazi! He basically killed six million Jews! How could you support him?

      Wait, you must be a nazi too!
