Fail, indeed. And not just due to the rightful ridicule that Starbucks has already received for its absurd “Race Together” campaign. You see, it got worse when this happened:

y'all realize there are no coloured hands in the press photos right @Starbucks #RaceTogether

[McGruff]

If you work at Starbucks you’re probably not worth having a discussion with.

[C19fan]

Unless the barista is cute. :)

[N. Theknow]

Starbucks Race Together campaign?

Really ought to make the drive through look like a Saab, Volvo, Audi, Subaru, Volt and Prius car lot.

[mykroar]

Resist you much!

[j. earl carter]

Maybe it’s not too late for them to claim that this was intended as a NASCAR cross-marketing promotion?

[kevkrom]

Yeah I want to discuss race issues with some idiot white liberal....

who can't find a better job with a $200k education than Starbucks barista.

[kevkrom]

I do not patronize Starbucks.

I patronize Starbucks all the time. I just don't buy anything from them. ;)

You’re giving them way too much credit for thinking this through. They are not not clever.

The “Coexist” crowd has already failed, but thanks to most media, “Coexist” is perpetuated.

Hey Starbucks: Black coffee matters. Stay out of politics.

If Starbucks really cared they would be communicating three things to avoid poverty and racial bias:

1. Don’t have children until age 20.
2. Finish high school.
3. Make sure your children have two parents.

Do those things, and racial biases will disappear in a generation. Until then, most criminal perpetrators will be described as AA, and all AA will suffer.

It’s not right to punish those of us, and that includes Hispanics and Asians, who do these three things and do not suffer the same bias.

rite awn rite awn!!

But I bet they really feel like they’re good people for caring about this issue!

[Obadiah]

Probably right.

I had to make a grocery run for a corned beef brisket and drove thru McDonalds for a $1 large cup of excellent coffee. Take that Starbucks!

[aces]

What about Black head remover, should there be a warning, not for use by black people..awww jeeeeeez

[edpc]

Easy fix. Just do new promo photos with black and white hands playing tug-of-war with the tip jar.

Jackie Mason had them figured out years ago.

[bgill]

Proud to say I’ve never set foot inside a Starbucks.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

Does Starbucks have any non-white baristas? I cannot recall ever having seen one. But I do not frequent the land of the overpriced coffee and crumpets.

Leftists just want to feel inclusive. Doesn’t matter that they aren’t. As long as they feel they are, to the correct people of course.
