Hey Republicans! Tired of companies not respecting your message?
I got a solution to one of your problems - the ritual of burning things. So your favorite NFL team takes a knee during the National Anthem. And you know what your immediate reaction is? Burn your season tickets! And the average cost for a season seat for say, the Denver Broncos is $101 a seat. Multiply that for 17 - that's $1700.
Now Nordstrom pulls Ivanka Trump's clothing line and you retaliate by burning all your Nordstrom clothing. Oreos makes fun of Trump during a commercial and you burn all your Oreos. Your favorite athlete of any sport takes a knee and you burn your $300 jersey. What's next? Ford pulls their ads from Hannity and you retaliate by destroying your $44,000 truck?
Nah. You know what you should do? Cut out the middle man! See, they already got your money. So burning these products does nothing - it's about as empty of a gesture as anything you can think of. Take a cue from the Joker from the Dark Knight - light your money on fire directly! That will show them! Look at it this way - if you pour a $150 bottle of French wine down the drain because France won't let Trump in Paris, you're just an idiot who poured a $150 bottle of wine down the drain! You really want to send a message to Ford? Take a pile of $44,000 that you were going to spend on an F-150 and light it on fire! Plus you get the added bonus of helping your local economy because you're creating jobs for your local fire department! So come on, light that money on fire! You know you want to! Just remember - everything burns!

So if they want to burn their F 150s, I stand by that decision. It's the burning of innocent Oreos that gets me! 
If you pour a $150 bottle of wine down the drain, you're just an idiot who poured a $150 bottle of wine down the drain. They already got your money, they couldn't care less about what you do with their products. But if you send the winery a video of you burning $150? They'd change their tune pretty fucking quick! Plus you get the added bonus of creating more jobs for your local fire department! It's a win win! 
Had a character named Otis Oracle, who was the Moral Majority's field scout for Bloom County. In one storyline he led a book and record burning so he and his followers went to the local record store to buy some salacious material with Otis asking the clerk about Blondie - something like.
Otis: Ah, Blondie. Is she laden with moral turpitude?
Clerk: Moral...?
Otis: Turpitude. Is she laden with it?
Clerk: I don't know, man, but she is one wicked chick!
Otis: Super! We'll take 30 dozen!
