I think mass refusal to work and spend money to the point where it starts inflicting enough pain on the government to take the desired action, would also significantly affect people who have nothing to do with the conflict, and it would have a greater effect on the poor than the rich as recessions tend to do.

I’m not sure if that would be an ethical course of action outside the country where the oppression is actually happening.
