In order to boycott Coca-Cola you would have to track down all the firms and subsidiaries that are a part of the over-arching globo-homo nightmare that is "coca cola." You might be surprised at what you would have to stop buying. Could be anything from beverages that you thought were direct competition to "cocal cola," to financial products, pharma products, etc etc. We can't hurt these guys in the wallet unless we are actually like shutting their factories down.
That is exactly the kind of information I'm looking for! Do you know of anybody who has done this research? I try to prioritize buying from local places, but if there is any shopping habit I can change to not support coke, I will do my best. Fuck 'em.
The easiest way to get started would be to look at Coca-Cola brands - there are over 500 spread throughout 200 countries. It can get tricky because through partnerships and licensing Coca Cola also manufactures and distributes many products including Nestlé and Dannon in the US and Canada. You can do an internet search, there is an official coca-cola brands page and a wiki that shows all of the brands, even international.I started there and eliminated products from my shopping list. When you start looking at what is owned by Coca Cola's largest share holder, Warren Buffet, it's quite a rabbit hole. Anything from real-estate to GEICO insurance.
