Are the MAGA crowd actively cancelling products now?
Didn’t they once throw out all their bud light because it was, checks notes… woke
....and Bud Light is back at #1, because the boycott boyz are pussies.....
.....also, the 'woke' NFL is bigger than it's ever been.....
Yeah they don’t actually have morals, they just react to current trends and will revert back when it becomes inconvenient.
Me personally haven’t used FaceBook in a decade. Don’t use WhatsApp. Not shipped on Amazon for a couple of years now. Recently boycotted McD, etc.
All of these things inconvenience my life to some extent but that’s the price of having morals. This fuckers are just going with the crowd.
I feel like where I am. Starbucks used to play the place that well off white people went. It still is, but now it's for liberals. Ever since the Great War (on Christmas), conservatives don't go there.
I question how liberal people are if they’re going Starbucks. They have an appalling record in terms of mining beans, how they treat their staff and their relationship with Israel.
It was never all of McDonald’s,just the ones in Israel, and they were all franchises owned by one man.
McDonald’s took such a publicity hit over something that wasn’t even their fault that they bought all the stores and made them corporate.
Edit: punctuation
Yeah but McD are hardly going to be winning moral corporation of the year anyway so I’ll happily avoid them still.
Plus it can’t hurt my health or wallet.
True that
I boycott McD be because of the sexual misconduct that's occured in franchises around the world. Israel wasn't the first bs McD has been caught in.
They set their Nikes on fire too. Plus there was something related to target last year over pride month products.
