In general boycotts don't work. Not enough people are 'committed' to it. Particularly if the alternative is drinking Pepsi.

They said she was “stunning and brave.”
But now that Caitlyn Jenner is poised to make a run for California governor on the Republican ticket, the state’s LGBTQ community has gone ballistic.
Holy hypocrisy!
“Make no mistake: we can’t wait to elect a #trans governor of California,” Equality California tweeted. “But @Caitlyn_Jenner spent years telling the #LGBTQ+ community to trust Donald Trump. We saw how that turned out. Now she wants us to trust her? Hard pass.”
Jenner, a former Olympic gold medallist, reality TV star and avid Republican has discovered she’s not the RIGHT kind of trans pioneer. While she supported Trump in 2016, Jenner walked back her support over what she described as discrimination against the trans community.
“Caitlyn Jenner is a deeply unqualified hack who doesn’t care about anyone but herself,” tweeted trans activist Charlotte Clymer. “Her views are terrible. She is a horrible candidate.”

CRICKET IN STICKY WICKET OVER ‘BATSMAN’
Cricket fans have been bowled over by a new in-tune-with-the-times initiative to bar the word “batsman.”
According to The Wall Street Journal, the venerable game came under fire by the uptight scolds at ESPNCricinfo.com. Editor Sambit Bal issued the edict that his publication would battle “discrimination” by barring the word.
He wants to use the gender-neutral term “batter” instead. Bal admitted that the word is not overly offensive and there hasn’t really been an outcry by female cricketers to have it iced.
But the woke gonna woke. Bal said the word goes off the rails when it trumps “batswoman,” giving it an unearned “sovereignty” and bias against women.
Got it? The Journal noted that the change appears to be entirely “gratuitous.” Like many of these sorts of things.
What with porn and a sex educator falling afoul of the strict morality of Utah, what is Satan to do?

NO SEX PLEASE! WE’RE FROM UTAH
The puritans of Utah seem to have a problem with sex. First, it was an initiative to ban porn from mobile phones, and now a sex therapist has been hung out to dry.
According to Fox News, Natasha Helfer has been booted from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints following a disciplinary hearing. She had questioned the all-powerful church’s policies on sex, “family and … moral issues.”
Helfer has been outspoken on sexual matters, supports same-sex marriage, maintains that masturbation is not a sin, and says porn shouldn’t be treated as an addiction. Whoa!
Her ex-communication — which is what it is — is not a lifetime ban, but she can no longer go inside temples.

He is a Trump supporting conservative . Come now come right out and say it .Most Trans people despise Jenner for a lot of reasons; for me, she's just an outright cunt typical of the "I don't give a shit about you" people. You know, the Republicans.
