NEW: PublicSquare, a website that lets you search for businesses in your community that explicitly want you to know they endorse Trump/MAGA values, is backfiring as people use it to boycott those businesses. www.huffpost.com/entry/public...

There was a huge controversy in the area of IN I grew up in when some very crunchy local farmers market vendors turned out to be big players within a wider network of neo-Nazis.

Some of the brands on that site are "obvious" but some would easily pass as green/left-oriented.

a local Indian store is on the list, which is pretty surprising as it's right in front of a mosque. Pretty much everyone there shops there at least once or twice a month

I was slightly confused to see similar businesses when I searched, but then I remembered Trump has a lot of pull with a subset of Indians/Indian Americans via his affinity for Modi.

I looked up my area and found a couple places that snuck under the radar. Yeah a few were no brainers but a counseling center and coffee shop were not on my local bingo card.

a Ghirardelli-like chocolate + ice cream shop is on there which I wouldn't have expected

It's almost like they are incapable of any level of foresight. They do this all the time...like the abortion snitch hotline I'm Texas.

Neighbors, sure, but if I'm looking for vacuum repair in Chicago (I am, btw), and I know nothing about businesses that do that, it's a handy way to know I should "oops, nope" a place.
