    If you want to end the BS, all SJW should be targeted with boycotts, barred from jobs. Do you really want to hire those extreme liberals to work for you? Hollywood is full of extreme liberal SJW that target others for perceived violations of their norms whatever that is. All the while, they are the most extremely privileged lot. Most of them white, extreme liberals who get the plum roles, endorsements and business deals just because they are politically connected to other privileged extreme liberals in Hollywood. One more good reason to boycott all of Hollywood and extreme liberal actors, actresses, singers, producers. Do not give them your monies. You got a choice not to patronize their businesses.

    So, you're implying that since the Conservatives ignored the Liberal call to boycott, it's a failure?

    Have you consider that the boycott can later be deemed a success if the Hyatt suffers from the loss of business brought on by the boycott? And issues a statement backtracking their current position?

    Have you considered that most boycotts take time to be effective, especially against a big corporation?

    All I mentioned was "let's see how the campaign is going". So far the Hyatt is not backing down whatsoever (quite rightfully).

    Going as well as most boycotts when they're relatively new.

    I'm afraid you're conflating two distinct concepts.

    Boycotts don't try to ban books and censor speech; lawmakers do that.

    Boycotts are simply citizens exercising their right to choose.
