This is based on a survey, not Facebook group numbers. 70% of people questioned had either boycotted or considered boycotting US products during the past month.

Exactly. + The Facebook group gets it right in their description. They view Facebook as "the prerfect weapon" to get people into a boycott, thus justifying the means of using an American product. Fair point, if you want to actually reach the people.
