So people being pissed that this asshole willingly showed up to signing that will fuck over countless people a decision he himself regrets . And chooses to take their money elsewhere that's is somehow fascism. So when conservatives boycotted Target for letting Trans people use their bathrooms were they being fascists ? Or when Trump supporters Boycotted Nordstorm or Netflix were they being fascists.

I would decline going to the white house if a president I did not support was in office.

Like all the business conservatives boycotted ?
Like Starbucks that's been targeted for everything from hiring 10,000 immigrants. To having cups that were not chistmasy enough . To a person who started a" culture war "over some guy claiming online a woman would not write Trump on his coffee cup .

Not unlike what others have said, your choice one way or the other. Personally, it wouldn't prevent me from patronizing your business, working next to you, or deciding whether or not to hire you for a job. Or do you think it should?
I buy doggie things from a pet shop with a big gay-pride rainbow flag over their door despite my personal opinions about homosexuality. The political opinions of the shopkeepers are irrelevant to me. As long as they sell my brand of dog food I will continue to shop there. Do you think it would be right for you to boycott the pet shop in the article because the owner posed in a photo with PDT?

Maybe you should stop doing that. You know you're just subsidizing their homo lifestyle, right?

I can separate the two in my mind. Business is business. I really don't appreciate Christian business owners that put fish-symbols and crosses in their shop windows either. Not sure what they think I'm supposed to do with that information...patronize them just because they are Christians? Just give me good service at a fair price.
Likewise, I hate it when a business says things like, "for every dollar you spend we donate X% to [insert their worthy cause]". I don't need to know that and would rather keep the X% to give to causes I think are worthy.

So you mean like again when Trump supporters boycotted Starbucks because their CEO is Hillary supporter

I don't appreciate Christians.
I tolerate them, and they can have a cake.
But fuck, they're basically irrelevant.

Good for you, Neo. Some people don't like to give their money to anyone who supports anything they disagree with. There's nothing wrong with that. If you wanted to boycott someone for being supportive of the lgbt community that would also be fine. Or if you want to keep your bigotry slightly on the DL by not boycotting those icky gays...also fine.
There's nothing wrong with people being choosey about where they spend their own money.
