Boycott these companies - they support human rights violations
Thursday, August 7th, 2008 foobar | Here is the link to the sponsors for this year’s Olympic Games in Beijing. As I wrote before, if freedom and human rights mean anything to us, we owe it ourselves and to those who are suffering from censorship and oppression to do something - anything! - about it. The one thing where it hurts these days is always the money. The games were given to China despite it’s terrible human rights record purely for financial reasons. China gets away with what it does, because we let it - purely for financial reasons. Thus, the one action we can take that will be noticed is to show our discontent with our wallets. Boycott Chinese products, and the sponsors of these games, who with their financial support and their good names end up supporting the regime in China. Main sponsors with products in our markets:
Boycotting the sponsors hopefully will send a message that this kind of support cannot be tolerated.
