If you knowingly patronise a nazi bakery, that’s fine?
I live in Croatia, I certainly buy bread from some nazis unless it’s a franchise bakery that these days employ mostly SEA immigrants. The beliefs of the person selling me bread or writing code I’m using don’t come into play at all, that’s what I’m saying. The left is practically falling apart because of principled children who’d cancel anyone for their beliefs.

You say “knowingly patronise”, I say “buy some bread”. Grownups recognize that we live in a society and people hold different opinions. How can you be sure there are no nazis feeding you, clothing you, transporting you? Especially with the ever-widening scope of that term, it’s on the verge of making no sense, being a catch-all term for stuff people don’t like. Instead of engaging others and finding common ground, people are behaving like kids, completely blocking others out for any documented slight.

We’re talking about choosing who to financially support. Catloaf doesn’t want to knowingly send money to support tankies. I’m not sure what your nazi baker comment was supposed to communicate, but I wouldn’t patronise a nazi bakery. Are you saying you would? It’s obvious that nobody knows the provenance of everything they buy, but only you are bringing that up and I don’t see the relevance.
