I know it's the second Costco related thing I've posted on this, but it's a pretty big deal.

If these MAGA turds want to try to boycott, I'll laugh my ass off because this one of the best performing retail stocks in the US in the past 20 years.

Considering I can barely get into the CostCo parking lot for all the people there, I suspect their boycott will amount to little.

    If we can get them to boycott Walmart too somehow, we can just starve them out entirely. They can’t afford to boycott the best value in town.

    They tried that "go woke go broke" bullshit when Costco refused to ditch their DEI policies. It didn't make a dent then. This lawsuit won't hurt Costco either.

    Costco's legal department being the last remainining Constitutional lawyers in America was not something I expected but am not surprised about, either.

    On top of that, Costco could probably make tons of money because of the tariffs if they wanted to. Any time prices skyrocket, retailers that can afford to give things at discounted prices can make a bundle. When everybody's prices go up, people lose the ability to shop at more expensive places.

    I think Costco is doing this because they want to continue prioritizing their customers.

    X commenter Leftyslayer complained, “Costco immediately passed the burden to its customers. They took the profits during the good times and now they screw the citizens during downturn. They have no loyalty to the customer.

    Actually not true (imagine my surprise at an X user being uninformed)

    From another article:

    Millerchip said that while Costco was seeing a direct impact from tariffs on imports of some fresh food items from Central and South America, it decided not to increase prices "because they are key staple items" for its customers.

    Costco has been eating the costs of the tariffs (at least in some cases)

    ...but who am I going to believe? Do I really think Leftyslayer would go on the internet and just lie? I'd have thought Leftyslayer would be even more fair and balanced than fake NBC news. /s

    We know they mostly shop at Sam’s Club anyway because Costco doesn’t build in their shitholes. Saving yourselves a 90 minute drive to own the libs.

    The new Bud Light? Annheuser-Bush is up almost 16% for the year. Sounds like that boycott didn't go so well. I'm sure Costco wouldn't mind a 16% boost to their stock price.

    I wonder which countries these boycotters are from. 70% chance these are bots from Russia, India, or South Asia.

    I thought these dumbfucks wanted low prices, LOL?

    Now they are butthurt if companies like Costco sue to get that money back that Taco illegally added to the cost of so many things?

    MAGA will be the ones who "go woke go broke" if they can't access the rotisserie chicken. I don't know for what % of Americans that $5 chicken is like the cornerstone of their diet, but it ain't just a few of us lol.

    I'd bet real money that most of the "people" threatening to boycott don't live on the same continent as a Costco store anyway.

    If you're buying for enough people that it makes sense, the Executive membership can easily pay for itself. Generally speaking Costco is slightly cheaper, but the big thing is that you'll typically get the more premium brand in a bulk container for the more basic price.

    But if you aren't going to be buying for a family of six every other week, it might not be super worth it to you. It's a good store, but it's not some amazing mecca or anything.

    The only boycotting they are doing is on twitter while they wait in line at the Costco checkouts.

    Is this boycott being pushed by US MAGAs or by their foreign thought leaders?
