In general, I don't think boycotting is a worthy expenditure of time or money. Not the way we do it currently. Were they more like those actions taken in the 1700-1800s, feminist labor historian's name i can't recall, it'd be another story.
At any rate, if it is worth it at all, I agree that it ought to be done when the employees trying to unionize call for such an action. Nonetheless, I don't think it's at all in the spirit of what the WF workers are calling for when someone provides arguments that support WF's anti-union policies. It doesn't seem very pro-worker, to me, to suggest that we should be grateful that WF exists because it's better than Walmart in terms of its consumer offerings or anti-unionism.
But hey, maybe you might want to write a note to WF workers explaining that the anti-union tactics they've been dealing with are not as bad as those used at Walmart.
