What are brands you refuse to support and why?

Lululemon because it's overpriced for what it is and I learned that it was named the way it was because asian people but specifically japanese have trouble pronouncing L's and the founder thought it would be funny. Why would I support a brand that thinks that way about people like me?

Also I quit buying campbells soup after the ceo made that comment about it being for poor people.

If I bought a car I wouldn't choose a Chevrolet or Chrysler. Their engines tend to die after a few years.

I don't give my money to any company that gave money to Trump. Who you give your money to is a thousand times more important than who you vote for.
@hunkalove That is one good thing about Trump, he did show us which companies to stay clear of.
Ben and Jerry's: loved their Ice Cream but can't give them my money because of their Political Views so different from mine

Ford cars. Tacky, badly built cars that will do their best to bankrupt you with repair costs.
@AdmiralPrune All American cars are junk. Japanese are the best, South Korea is decent too. China cars remain to be seen.
@SoftIceCream Yes my wife swears by Mazdas. She’s always had them one way or another since she past her test.

Right now Lindt, after I heard that Germans stopped buying their products because their prices went up. The prices in Germany are allegedly even lower than here while their wages are like three times higher. 😐 If I get Lindt chocolate as a present, okay but I'm not going to buy anything from them anytime soon.
I don't deal with Campbell's anymore either. Never bought Lululemon in my life or even heard of them until about 6 months ago to be honest but I really hope that's not seriously why they're named that way. If it is, it's trash.

I don't get Modelo anymore. "The mark of a fighter." Yes, because we should be pairing violence with alcohol. Of course the commercials are just about a bunch of blue-collar people living mundane lives, making the fact that they are workers into their "fight," which is just pandering nonsense. But still, the overall, takeaway message, rather than what you derive from the subtext (which is merely stupid), is offensively bad.
