Recognize that money is the fuel behind nearly all changes to our societal direction.

Trump supporters are NOT the primary generators of GDP in America.

Time is now to identify his enablers (people and businesses) are end your economic dialog with them. Make it clear that their support of lawlessness and sadism has a steep cost.

Share with those who share your values which people and businesses should be shunned.

Fund only the businesses that support social justice, economic opportunity for all and environmental stewardship.

Thanks for your comment on "raise the cost of capitulation" - which I would expand to "raise the cost of collaboration." In other words, we need to be imposing actual costs on Trump's censors - and on anyone else in the Trump Administration. Nothing violent or illegal, but costs such as public humiliation, having career opportunities taken away, being excluded from social gatherings, etc. are all game. We won't stop Trump's functionaries by venting about how mean they are; we will stop them by making them choose between their own well-being and his.
