      So, Ross, are you saying it's healthy for companies to give price breaks to people who belong to anti-gun-control lobby groups but not to people who belong to pro-gun-control lobby groups? That was a healthy situation? I think it was unhealthy, and that changing it is healthy.https://twitter.com/DouthatNYT/status/968881317961240576 …

      Fwiw, the Dick's decision seems like a much healthier way of expressing a liberal-leaning form of corporate social responsibility than the airline/rental car company approach.

      I don't think the discounts airlines choose to offer are particularly morally important either way. But in context the airline moves can be read as moral statements about gun owners as a class, while Dick's move is focused on particular guns and particular buyers.

      You can argue it the other way: That you need to socially disfavor the NRA to make legislative change happen. I'm just skeptical that making weakly-attached NRA members feel like they're being unfairly targeted will ultimately have that effect.

      The theory that you have to isolate and crush conservatives with a united front of all nonpolitical institutions may work this time, or next time, or the time after that. But so far we have President Donald Trump.

      You haven't directly answered my question: Was the status quo ante--companies favoring customers of one ideology over another--healthy for America? Do you recommend, as an American, that companies do that? These are yes or no questions.

      Retail companies should be really careful about ideological segmentation of their markets. They almost always do it wrong because confirmation bias makes them overestimate what % of consumers share their values.
