True. If the movement was called boycott facists, or even buy local I don't think there would be the same problem.

Exactly what I am talking about. Plenty of facists in the EU, plenty of non-facists outside the EU. Make your decision based on the politics of the people you are buying from, not what flag they wrap around themselves.

I think the buy EU thing (and for that matter, all this trade war bullshit) is one of those things that claims to be apolitical but is inherently nationalistic and so massively popular with/supported by/in support of the authoritarian right.

One of those salt of saturn political things that lets people pretend they aren't right-wing.
