    Like everybody else I object to what Bezos did, but boycotting the paper isn’t going to tangibly hurt him, financially or in any other way, and it certainly won’t change his behavior. The only people affected will be staffers who get laid off or have their salaries cut because of lost revenue. But hey, at least the social justice angels get to feel good by satisfyingly lashing out, and that’s what really counts, right? The fantasy that they’re fighting for a better world.
