For example, if you are a racist who hates Blacks, you should boycott everything a Black person invented or developed, including the car wash (automatic car washer inventor Richard Spikes), the elevator (designed by Alexander Miles), and your climate-controlled office (HVAC techniques developed by David Crosthwait).
If you hate Jews, you should give up your X-Box (first video game console invented by Ralph Baer), your cell phone (Joel Engel), and your vaccinations (including Polio, invented by Jonas Salk).

It seems to me that hating people for their race is wrong in the first place, so to boycott simply because of race would make it doubly wrong. .

The racists and the haters don’t know enough to credit any group that they hate with anything worthwhile. Even if they did know, they would simply ignore it.

It makes sense to me. I think if they really believed the hate they spout they should do something like that. I wonder how often members of the KKK get their cars washed . . .

I love this question. It amazes me how hypocritical humans are. We want only what benefits us even if it means going back our word, beliefs, etc.
