Frankly stupidly commenting on the boycott of food hypermarkets, they focus mainly on the fact that if not today or tomorrow, then on Saturday people will still squat and go buy something.
And maybe yesterday the touts overfilled the carts and now they are acting angry and iron-clad.
Hardly a normal person thinks that with one day of boycott the people can "bankrupt the people's gluttons". Nor is that the goal.
The boycott is a symbolic act, but also a real cry for help - a cry of powerlessness and hopelessness in the face of our devalued incomes, in the face of goods that are more expensive in our country than in the countries they come from, in the garbage that we eat and that turn Bulgarian children into hippos and ruin our health.
Nobody wants to bankrupt or expel anyone. The boycott is a scream for normality. Probably doomed, against the backdrop of the feeling of complete collapse, indifferent /and not only/ regulators and a compromise cabinet that exudes everything but not the stability cherished for years.
If we hyperbolize - this is a kind of commercial April Uprising in February. No one has the illusion that a local rebellion will overthrow the sultan, unless their adrenaline has run out. The goal is for someone who actually depends on something to hear.
The bad thing is that in the current situation we are limited to the need for purely internal intervention - this is our job, there is no one to help us from the outside, no matter that the chains are foreign.
And when we remember that "our job" in Italian is "cosa nostra", the result seems a foregone conclusion...
