Corporations promote all libtard causes.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/starbucks-black-lives-matter-shirt-ban-1.5604929">https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/starbu ... -1.5604929">https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/starbucks-black-lives-matter-shirt-ban-1.5604929

I actually run a corporation, albeit a very small one.



Starbucks is losing nothing in doing so, since they needed that many new shirts anyhow to replace the old ones, and for new hires.  It's a business expense providing shirts to your employees, and as such it doesn't count as taxable revenue earned.



So, why not order the next batch of shirts, most likely made in Bangladesh, with the "White People are Bad, I love Negroes" slogan printed cheaply on it at the same time, from the same factory?



They are just going with the current flow, which is anti-white, pro-left...  Maybe it stops the Nigs and Antifa from destroying their locations?  I doubt it will, since Nigs and Antifa destroy everything anyhow, so it is what it is...  The new norm!  



Get used to it, because you haven't seen anything yet...

Starbucks can make their employees wear whatever the fuck they want. It won't make me any more likely to buy their "coffee" and it can scarcely make me want it any less at this point.





My advice? Stop bitching about it and vote with your feet. If it hurts their bottom line for long enough, they'll either come crawling back or go broke. Either way it's a win.


I agree. Either quit or shut up and wear the fucking shirt. Starbuck's political slant has been well known for years so work for Chick-Fil A or Cabellas if it so offends you. As a customer, stop your bitching and go elsewhere, as said, vote with your feet not your mouth. In the end, it boils down product and service, politcal ideology is pretty fucking low on the priority list when it comes to buying a cup of coffee or a burger.

Why are you people so surprised when some1 decides to enter the office armed with an AR-15?





You basically force people in a situation where they yield like a bitch or lose everything.

Political coercion by employers has been going on for a long time and thanks to a 2015 Supreme Court decision It's completely legal and sanctioned in the US.



We are now in the midst of the big corporate race to be "woke"....No one wants to be last.

I read this from your link, " in most states, managers have the legal right to mandate worker attendance at a political rally for a favored candidate-and fire or punish workers who decline to participate."



Disturbing.

Indeed

Employees should sue if they're forced to wear political themes.

I agree, but with jobs so hard to get these days thanks to forced lock downs, people who disagree will hold their noses and wear them. However, the snowflakes who work at Starbucks all agree I'm sure.

Nah, the snowflakes will cheer it for all of five minutes if you're lucky, then decide that even that isn't enough and find something else to complain about.





Case in point; while the BBC is now effectively telling Karens to shut the fuck up and issuing memos to their employees that they must use correct personal pronouns when dealing with intersectionalists, the transgender lobby is still naming Aunty Beeb a bunch of transphobes after they forgot to pay the protection money to a number of LGBTQ groups this months.





Who do you reckon is the next group the woke crowd will be going after? My money is on the black males.

Mel doesn't believe any of that nonsense he posted IHJ..



He's seeking attention and very likely intoxicated.

It's not quite that Orwellian here. I'm in management and when it comes to climate change, anything I say on social media must not deviate from the their script. Which brings up another company overreach issue. You can be fired in Canada for what you post on social media IF you post your employer's name in your profile.



Our company has had nothing to say about BLM(so far). No BLM shirt either, lol.

Actually, in Canada I could fire you for no reason at all (in a non-unionized place of employment).  Depending on your length of employment, I may just have to give you either two weeks notice, or two weeks severance.  I don't have to give you a reason why.  So you'll put on whatever shirt I tell you to wear!

It matters not. The older generations have always gone to their graves decrying the decisions of the younger dominant generations, it is a right of passage and it is inevitable. Old people love to complain how "they" did it better and how the younger generations are stupid, lazy, duped and uninformed. Their grandparents and parents said the same bullshit fifty years ago and time and society eventually muted their power and influence. Power shifts the baby boomers and their attitudes, in most situations, are now are subservient to the younger generations. If you don't like it, too fucking bad you are powerless against the flow of youth and time. Every generation is.



Be grandpa Simpson all you want the die has been cast.

I know a local guy that has an order for 3,000 BLM shirts and 4,500 masks. The market shifts and dollar is king, if schools and sports camp orders are down, BML will pay the bills. Welcome to capitalism it doesn't help everone but what the hey. He is making money in a tough economy hard so BML for his company is avery good thing.



God bless capitalism.

Capitalism in 2020 has been hijacked by progtards, just like the authoritarian bastards hijacked unions, all media, academia, pop culture, politics, and the environment.


No, you are talking about old people losing societal revelance, and the aging out of their once dominant politcal beliefs. Times change and there is nothing you can do about apart from dying. The Millennials are becoming the dominant generation in size, power and political strength and nothing but the future generations that takeover can and will change that. Times change. Get on board or get run over.



Growing old is a bitch.

Millennials are pawns, Mel. They are being used by very old and very rich people like George Soros. The very old and very rich want total control over everything.
