YSL 16/12/22 - When should we boycott?

 

As usual I find myself getting in arguments online with people I probably agree with on more than I disagree. I really don't have much interest in going back and forth with Serbian nationalists all day so I'll make my comments here instead. But it got me to thinking on a larger subject I've been pondering - where do we draw the line? Who and what do we choose to support or give a pass to?

Is it right to treat Russians or Chinese as pariahs on the world stage? Should we do business with dictatorial regimes and rigid theocracies such as Qatar? I don't have all the answers but I ahve some thoughts after the jump.
