Dammit! Folgers was my generic coffee go-to! Anyone know what brand I can buy from a major grocery chain that doesn’t donate to fascists?
cafe bustelo
Edit: its good coffee. Not sure about its political leanings though.
Unfortunately I think you’re in the same boat there. Care Bustelo is owned by JM Smucker Co which in recent years, according to open secrets, has made almost exclusive donations to the right including the RNC as well as Trump’s campaign to the tune of $75k and $25k respectively.

If you have em near you, the Safeway grocery ‘signature select’ branded whole bean coffee has been my go to for a while now(well, since my preferred local roaster decided to be a union busting shitheel and I stopped going there). And as far as I can tell they at least donate to both parties relatively equally. Which, honestly I’m not sure is better or worse.

But also fuck Safeway for putting up fucking security fencing and receipt gates at the store near me. Remember kids, you’ve never seen or even heard of anyone stealing food in your entire life. Especially from a corporation.
+1 for bustelo
