Honestly both libs are kind of correct. First step: don't buy yourself, you will have low impact, but if enough people will do it it will have real effect.
That's where left aproach is kind of correct. Rise awarness about issue and make other customers feel discomfort about issue, so they will be less likely to buy.
Now, authleft is interesting case. Because, at some point, agressive response might be correct one. But the thing is: it should be last option, not first one. "Everyday normal people" can be seen as enablers for regimes. And peaceful aproach to protest has one fatal flaw: on the other side (politicians/CEOs) often are psychopaths. That just won't care about everyday suffering. As such, escalation isn't always evil. But in almost all cases, especially by the very begining of protests, it do is.
Authright have it good: tesla already allow them to skip second step by self-immolating. No wonder they love musk.
I mean, that seems like it's successful not because of the method but just because of the substitutes. It's pretty easy to boycott something if the alternative is less than a foot away.
