Encouragement promotes solidarity, community, a sense of belonging, a sense of support. If we truly want community as we claim, we should promote it.
Every time a company takes a stand, opts for principle over proffit, refuses to be unethical, stands up for its base, we should congratulate them, make them feel good about themselves, promote them, guide people to them, away from less ethical alternatives.

We should not seek perfection, but be satisfied with better options rather than worse. The left can seem rather puritanical. Imperfect alliances are all we have, imperfect people are all we have. If we hold out for perfection, the oligarchs will win and the things we love will crumble while we wait, bicker, shame each other and sit in our own shame bubbles. Let's help each other to be better, help companies to be better, encourage companies and individuals when they make positive change.
