My God, I’m Italian and have zero issue with WOP pizza. I think it’s clever! Never tried their pizza but I will certainly go now!

Yes. People have the freedom of opinion and choice.

The Flames chose not to invest in Bill Peters, much as I chose not to invest in Pizza Bob.

I didn’t like the anti vaxxer stance, it goes against science and my beliefs. They had a good pie, but I don’t want to support his business because he used his business platform to express opinions that do not agree with my beliefs

I obviously have freedom of choice, and if he wants to tie his beliefs to his business, then I can get perfectly good pizza elsewhere

And it’s not a hard boycott for me, I might go back, if I feel like their pizza. Just have generally reduced my investment because if I am giving away money (ie. the portion of my payment ~allocated to profit), then I prefer to give it to someone who has not disqualified my ability to fully respect them
