According to many American activists, human rights in America are also violated for many groups of the society, so, should foreign companies stop using American products, too? Business and politics should stay separated, I believe, which I find specially true for public companies, which have fiduciary duties to their shareholders.

I imagine some of those activists would say yes, since they want to pressure those companies to do better.
That seems like a suspiciously convenient way to absolve everybody of conscience. It's not the business' responsibility, nor the shareholders, nor the customers, nor the politicians. Everybody agrees that it's bad but each expects somebody else to do something about it.
