So what can we do, short of a hypocritical boycott and beyond a harshly-worded email?
I don't know how often corporations capitulate to economic blackmail. Maybe it's a common occurence. I wish I didn't feel so self-serving with my anger when the blackmail affects my minority group. And maybe I'm so angry because I've been such a tool all day, posting in favor of giving Ford the benefit of the doubt.
I've had a chance to do a little research this evening, and I'm convinced that this was NOT a financial decision ... but rather was capitulation to blackmail, and allowing a hate group to dictate corporate policy.
That kind of thing may be commonplace, too. After all, I'm under no illusion that corporate America is any kind of paragon of virtue. But knowing what I do now know about this situation, I am alarmed at the insideousness of it, and wary of the danger this represents.
How do you suppose this could get more publicity? I feel this is not something that should go unchallenged and that Ford must be outted on this one.
