Oh but I said knowingly and willingly. Of course in everyday life you simply cannot (nor would I want to) know what everyone is doing... Ignorance can be bliss.
And that is fundamentally the point of this thread as stated in the original post. I do know and am willingly giving my money in the case of many directors, actors or musicians. Because some are so vocal and they have the cash and platform to spew their beliefs and promote their causes.
And certainly in cases of large organizations the same can be said. Enron comes to mind or WalMart for some. Even Sony when they introduced a rootkit in an audio CD. People boycott organizations everyday for different ideals.
Me, I just want to watch a movie. I am just trying to get past the idea that my money is in some cases knowingly going to a cause I despise.
