I am considering using the domain pridebeforefall.org (with redirects from pridefall.org, pridecomesbeforefall.org, and pridegoesbeforefall.org) to make a comprehensive boycott list of a pro-trans ideology brands.

Boycotts are proving effective and quite frankly even if they don't you should still not want to support companies that want children raped and mutilated even if it has no practical impact.

This would be a very specific anti-gender ideology list. General "woke" not included, i.e. "Boycott Disney for Black Ariel" is not OK, "Boycott Disney for making Ariel trans" would be.

There would be three categories for the boycott:
  1. Highest tier: Gender ideology aimed at children. Any company that supports child drag, child pride, etc.
  2. Medium tier: Explicit gender ideology sponsorship (i.e. any company that partners with drag, like Dylan Mulvaney).
  3. Low tier: Superficial gender ideology support, i.e. progress flag logos.
This would have a search feature where you search "Stella Artois" and see it's owned by InBev and therefore tainted by a Level 2 boycott on BudLite.

All boycotts would have alternatives suggested, such as Yeungling for BudLite.

This would be open source. Discuss tech stacks to make this as painless and retard proof as possible and DoS-resistant. I am considering a NodeJS stack to compile templates to static HTML for ultimate efficiency.
 
It's a neat idea.
Static HTML built with whatever (and as such, hostable with whatever) seems like the way to go, not a frontend person so I don't have much more to say. As long as it doesn't turn 5 words of text into 20MB of bullshit JS bundles (Wordpress-style) it will be fine.
 
Sounds good to me. I'd have to agree with some fellow Kiwis and say that pure HTML and CSS (with little, preferably no JS) is the way to go.
 
I've considered something like this recently.

A few questions:
How will the list be maintained? Will it be crowdsourced to the users? Or are you considering doing it yourself, or with a few trusted jannies. It might be annoying to keep updated and end up neglected.
What is the size of the dataset that you envision?
 
I'll do a bit of research this weekend and see which brands they've left out. Might be worth combing over ESG scoreboards then going from there. Bet I can link half the fuckers up there with tier 1 offences.
 
I'm looking through the Hugo themes but a huge hangup is a search. People need to be able to search their beer to see if it's in InBev.

It sounds like you need some level of interactivity with this site. You can easily spin up the necessary frontend for this with Bootstrap, MUI, or whatever design library you want to use. If your dataset is small enough to be shipped with the client, search is relatively trivial with some JS.
Depending on how big your data is, and how complicated you want to make the process of adding more to the list, you may need a backend.

As far as search goes, it can easily be made clientside with JS as long as the dataset isn't too large. Some actual projects do that, for example Python's downloadable HTML documentation (it's apparently a feature in Sphinx), and the searchindex.js file for that is slightly over a megabyte in my copy.
 
  1. Low tier: Superficial gender ideology support, i.e. progress flag logos.
I don't know if this is technically feasible. In MATI, you mentioned how you wanted a rainbow blocker. If this list has their logos on it, would it be technically possible to make an extention that swaps twitter profiles for the vanilla logos on the site?

I'd suggest a "walkback" badge. There are some companies that immediately fire and apologize when an employee tries this. Others quietly drop it when it backfires but never issue an apology.

It would be nice if there was a semi-regular image with the major brands and a link to the site for ease of sharing.
 
Does it have to use a CMS? How much flexibility is needed in what content can be entered on the site? Hugo is great but doesn't support indexing or searching out of the box. I could spin up something in Laravel.

If you do decide to go with Hugo, one way of structuring how entries are submitted is by creating a thread here with guidelines on how each post should be formatted.
I.e:
Brand: [name of brand]
Thing they did
Links (archive.ph) to sources

Then creating a Hugo template to copy and paste the data in to. But the drawback to this is it's not actually in a database anywhere and just in a static file.
 
Última edición:
If this is the place to put the crowdfunded research, I'll see if I can get a chance to look into stuff over the weekend.
I'll assume US only, but if I spot anything particularly egregious elsewhere I'll stick it here, for completeness.
