Look up One Million Moms and check out the long list of companies they have boycotted including, most recently, Amazon for supporting same sex marriage.

Thanks for asking instead of just assuming that I'd lost my mind.
No, I guess what I'm really asking is have their been any boycotts that anybody cared about? [ETA: okay, I expressed that really badly. I know the people involved in the boycotts care, but I can't think of any that clogged up my facebook feed.]
What seems different about this to me is that it was a facebook sensation and that someone gave people two distinct protests with dates.
If the issue is all about religion, then those other boycotts should have blown up as well, but they didn't. [EATA: I'm just trying to think about why this was different. Is it that everyone loves a culture war in an election year?]
