Start a group of "People who will not buy Sodastreams because we do not want Sodastreams." And we keep talking about how we simply do not want Sodastreams. If anyone brings up Israel and Palestine, we simply say "this group has no opinion on that, we're just simply a group of people who do not want Sodastreams".
"This is a list of products that we won't buy for no specific political reason"
I'll see that and raise you one:
Make an explicitly pro-IDF warcrime space online and then associate brands and celebrities who would be a part of an Israel boycott and make posts about why we need to support x in order to support the continued displacement of Palestinians and to get the Jabalia refugee camp bombed a third time etc.
Make it the most morally-detestable space to be in and make it unabashedly pro-Israel lobby/business to associate the most negative aspects of Israel with brands.
Also spend a reasonable of time denouncing BDS too.
This is how you run a grassroots counter-COINTELPRO op. Turnabout play is fair.
I don’t think I have the stomach for that. You just know some weird asshats would join unironically.
That's fair enough. I can understand why.
But it's worth mentioning that this is the end-goal of a COINTELPRO op of this nature.
You are going to attract the most unhinged types to that space. In fact, this is exactly what you want to happen.
It should become like a rogue's gallery of the absolute worst of the worst. It should be like Black Hammerification or the MAGA Communismification of pro-Israel discourse.
Once it has legs you can just let it run loose and you can even start using it to pick out the worst of the lowlights to showcase just how atrocious the anti-BDS movement is, MEMRI TV-style.
The NAFO movement is also ripe for the same sort of counter-COINTELPRO op imo.
I’ll leave to get that going then.
You call them weird asshats. I call them people who will help the counter-COINTELPRO cause for free.
