  • An excellent question because “organic boycott” appears to have been “born” recently. My DDG search of the expression yielded seemingly nothing but results about this conflict. This bit from TIME appears to clarify:

    Since the war in Gaza began, BDS has also endorsed new targets it did not initiate—like McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, and Burger King—calling them “organic boycott targets” because of the public support they have received after their brand franchises appeared to support Israel.


  • I believe in activism for important causes, but even I think it would be best to stay right where you are because your departure would, imo, have little impact. If I were there, I suspect I’d stay quiet and try to focus on what I must do to bring about my next upgrade at McDs, somewhere else, or something I made on my own. I imagine at McDs it’s possible to get in a “zone” where you and the tasks become one or something like that. I worked at Wendy’s, but never achieved the “zone” because I wasn’t there long enough to see how the operation’s various pieces came together to make the whole thing work. Best to you.
