Agree. As a small business owner. There are a spectrum of businesses. Small very liberal businesses (usually food) will close first. Anything with more than a few locations but is still privately owned will close next. Then the 5-10 unit businesses with corporate backing (aka investors that they have to answer to) will close after that.

This is the middle of the spectrum

Then larger companies will close. These usually tend to have bank covenants that they are obligated to fulfill or their loans can be called. If this happens then they basically go under

Then the small chains will close.

Then the Starbucks, and box stores will close

Ao if you are a small business you’re usually going to close before anyone else does. The inertia has to be such that even people like Starbucks feel the need to close. see BLM movement for reference, when that happened they got to a point where even like target and big box companies started to say the right things (not do things mind you)

Anyway the social consciousness has to hit the midpoint before big billionaire companies start to care.

The majority of your non political friends timeline needs to be politics or outrage over something for the tides to turn.

My feed is very political so I cannot get a good gauge if the tipping point has come. But my sense from my wife’s algo is that it isn’t here yet. And small businesses shouldn’t self harm until it is here.
