Heyo :) neben den deutschen Firmen #Puma und #adidas , welche ja beides Großkonzerne sind und sonst wo in der Welt produzieren, gibt es auch noch "Lunge" und "Lowa" Schuhe, welche in #Deutschland und #Europa produzieren. Ich besitze beides und bin äußerst zufrieden! Außerdem gibt es da auch noch Meindl und Waldviertler-Schuhe.

Nike, Converse, New Balance sind aus den #USA

It makes me feel somewhat better when I see all these boycotts, and realize that, with a few notable exceptions (amazon was a hard one) I don't really buy many of the products anyway, so my boycott is meaningless. I recently saw a #nestle #boycott and the wide expanse of brands they control and was happy to note that none of them are in my house or regular consumption routine. =)

To boycott as a means of political voice is powerful.
To be able to work outside the domain of the corporations being boycotted is a privilege I am grateful for and work hard to maintain.

#Musk: "I’ve never done anything harmful, I’ve only done productive things."

He's now constantly complaining about the #Tesla boycotts, and that's because his fortune is mostly in this #stock.

People are free to #boycott your products if you perform public sieg heils, defund #Ebola prevention and #AIDS research, complain about social welfare while getting 10s of billions in subsidies, actively interfere in foreign elections, and support anti-democratic actions of the #Trump administration.

@thezenlady Fantastic essay! thanks for posting it

“as of the time of writing, Tesla is valued at $852.43 billion! That means its P/E ratio (a ratio of company value to its net income….) is a staggering 67.65!”

Toyota: [has] “a much more realistic value of $243.56 billion, giving them a P/E ratio of 8.40, which is close to the average for the automotive world.”

“The only reason Tesla is so stupidly valuable is because it is treated as a speculative meme stock.”
