I get the boycotts for Target, Walmart, and Amazon for rolling back their DEI programs and bowing to Trump. What companies are treating employees fair or standing up for human decency? Seems like Costco gets brought up?

Most things I need I can get from my local grocery store which seems pretty non evil but where do you go if you need like a new keyboard?

    I’m not sure if the exact details, but based on what you’re saying, that’s a union busting technique. You strike for recognition of the union and to bring the company back to the table to negotiate the contract. If a company is raising wages in response to a strike that’s generally an attempt by the company to show that they will “take care of you” without the union contract. Anything the company does to “help” in response to worker action other than adding it as a concession in the contract is an attempt to avoid having a concession in the contract.
