No. Boycotting is a silent attac= k on a non-attacking party. =3B Attack leads to unpeaceful situations= =2C and eventually it leads furthermore to tension and LOUSY science.
Read=2C study and don't fight. Fighting is for idiots. So thus is also bo= ycotting. Besides=2C boycotting starts from a germ of disappointment=2C and= its qualiity trascends the entire reaction chain following boycott.
Boycott is for idealists and politicians. They both end up like Joshka Fis= cher=2C living up against their own ideals and behaving like politicans.
