I think a lot of this has to do with Dorsey choosing to be CEO of a company that puts him in the spotlight.  Eating where you want without anyone caring is out the window, his career choice eliminates that.  

 A lot of his actions will be criticized because its easier to look at what other people do than to look at what we do ourselves.  That is after all how celebrity media makes money.

 I think boycott is done as demonstration, protest or as punishment.  For those reasons specifically, not the myriad of other reasons that would fit into personal preference.

MSpring, does your choice to not support a business...
Make or break it....???
I think it satisfies your own need, more than accomplishing any great change on those who you hope to sway....
Sorta like peeing in the ocean  

Jog, no one is forcing anybody, where do you leap to that assessment?
Shaming has been a means of manipulation since the early ages.
It has worked, that’s why it’s still around, however it’s as useless as tits on a man, unless you allow yourself to be manipulated by other mitigating factors

Again, the POINT that nobody will address  it's GOOD to Force someone to Do what they don't Want to do, then it's GOOD!  Right?

    (The Long Answer)

That’s tough to answer. And the, ‘Forcing’ has a Lot to do with, a Political view.

Take a Co Rd here, the speed limit is 55,
Many on a stretch, (very straight and exc. sight for several miles),  drive 75.
Now, are they, ‘Forced’, to drive 55 ?
Or do they, ‘choose’, to Drive 75,
and  only if caught, ‘forced’, to pay the fine ?
(So the same with robbing a bank, etc. etc. etc,.)
That is a, ‘Law’.  People are forced to pay the penalty of breaking the law.
Not much Political their.
 
Now take humans with a D ick, If they ’Say’, the Magic words:
     “I Identify As a Girl”
Several Places, will Allow them to Pretend.
 (As it is a, LAW, to Allow, the Pretending)
So in this case, no one is, Forcing someone to, pretend.
Yet it is being, ‘Forced’, to ALLOW, the, ‘Pretending.
That, would be Political.

Two  examples, which can be expound on to fit many situations.

Here is a tricky one:
A State makes marijuana legal. 2 studies were done, one said, accidents rate went up, another said they were the same.
What they BOTH, failed to say: is One counted ONLY, “fatal crashes”. And the other counted ONLY, ‘minor accidents’.
Now, nobody, ‘Forced’ anyone to take marijuana, no one forced anyone to drive while taking marijuana.
No one, ‘forced a marijuana smoker, to be the cause of a Accident.
Other factors come into play, as to who was at fault, and why. One maybe marijuana, or may not.
And it will Depend on the Law.
NOT on the, PERSONAL, opinion of a person, liking or disliking, marijuana.
Like a Cake Baker, who was, FORCED, to believe the Personal Opinion, of people who liked someone of a particular sexual preference.
Just the SAME, as a, 'Forcing' a person smoking marijuana, who was in a accident, to, 'believe' the   personal opinion, of a person who does NOT  LIKE, marijuana, that marijuana the reason for the accident.

 ‘Force’,  does exist, yet I believe many times it is confused with choice.
Say I work in a government place, and I see what, (I believe), is a male Pedophile, going into a girls bathroom, just after a little girls goes in.
I am, ‘FORCED’ to do nothing about it, because it is the law.
  Can I do something about it?  (What I believe is right ?)
  Can I drive 75, when the sign says 55 ?
Say I am, ‘anti-gun’, (I know, I Know). Someone clearly has a gun, the place/state, all allows it, they walk into a Bank.
I am, ‘FORCED’ to do nothing about it, because it is the law.
  Can I do something about it?  (What I believe is right ?)
  Can I drive 75, when the sign says 55 ?
So, which one, if, ‘Forced’ to believe something thy do not believe in?
Clearly these are political, as two L/R, believers, will believe one or the other.
So, would it be forced ?

Then, Driving from point A to B.  Traffic Stops, and one is Stuck for Hours.
Don’t know why, but you are, ‘Forced’, to be stuck.
Now if it is a BLM Crying fest, No one is, Forcing you to believe the Criers.
Just as if it is a Major Accident, and a Helicopter has to land on the freeway,
No one is, ‘Forcing’, you to believe in Car Accidents.
Yet, Some, ‘Expect’, you to believe in one, not the other.

So, is one, ‘Forced’ to pay a % of money to the Government.
Or only if, ‘caught’ ?  (and a whole bunch of, like things)

Is someone, ‘forced’, to Believe, a, ‘Pretender’, No.
Is someone, ‘forced’, to Allow, a, ‘Pretender’, Yes.

"...it's GOOD to Force someone to Do what they don't Want to do, then it's GOOD! Right?..."

(The Short Answer)

   NO.

"Again, the POINT that nobody will address  it's GOOD to Force someone to Do what they don't Want to do, then it's GOOD!  Right? "

 No.  Of course as that sentence is put then it could include things like forcing someone to kill their child, or forcing someone to jump in front of a bus.  So no it is not good to force someone to do what they don't want to as that could be anything.  

 Also the answer is Yes.  It could include things like forcing a child murderer to go to prison, or driving lessons for a bus driver.  

 Specifically if you are asking if its good to force Dorsey to apologize then I would question exactly what "forced" means to you and how he was forced to do something.  I consider forced to mean grave bodily injury or death to himself or others if he did not comply.

 Are you asking should a CEO be forced to apologize in order to keep his job?

Righties occasionally pull this stunt but but rarely. The owner of Scott Vest did an interview in which he said he advertises on Fox News because if their dumb enough to watch Fox, they'll believe anything we tell them. Unfortunately for him, a lot of business travelers use his vest so weren't too happy and he was forced to sell his shares and get out. That's rare.

The Dorsey thing was a little different as he felt he had to apologize because he mention Chick in a tweet. There was a hilarious article in a New York paper about a Chick opening in Manhatten and you'd have thought aliens had landed and opened a cafe. This one hard core leftie writer who was in the cool kids New York group as far as you could get, sounded like one of those National Geographic narrators talking about how lions live. The funniest part is he had no idea he sounded as if he were doing a comic routine. Talk about out of touch.....

No, it is a big deal to lefties because he's a big shot who isn't toeing the line.
Lefties DEMAND everyone be outraged by the Christian business.

Is it wrong to attack him and demand he not eat the chikkin?
