IMO Leftist Academia has staged a silent coup against Corporate America in the past 20 years by infesting two departments with properly indoctrinated young Commisars.

- Marketing
- HR

Tired of this. LOL is all I have bought for years. Glad I stocked up recently on unsalted butter, but it won’t get me through holiday baking.

No more buying their butter. Plenty of other brands on the shelf.

I have Land-O-Lakes in my refrigerator. I will use until gone.

There are other higher quality brands I will be buying in the future.

I am fine if companies are politically neutral. But if they take to the left, I am done with them.

boycott

Boycotting food items is a losing
battle, as top name brands manufacturer
generic brands for places like
Walmart and Costco. Walmart brand butter
is made by Blue Bonnet, or Land-O-lakes.
Walmart brand peanut butter is made by
Peter Pan.

What did king do that got their panties in a wad ?

During an interview with what the left describes as a "white nationalist associated group" (which means they are somewhere to the right of Bernie Sanders), he said “If we don’t defend Western civilization, then we will become subjugated by the people who are the enemies of faith, the enemies of justice.”

I only just bought some because it was buy one/get one free. I can do without it easily. While we’re on the subject of avoiding certain dairy products, don’t forget to avoid Chobani yogurt.

I wonder who strong armed them...er, helped them come to this decision?

We should get everyone here to sign a statement for companies like this and declare that since they espouse immoral liberal values, we will no longer support their companies

I read the linked article, and this one you linked to was no better with outright obvious biases.

So, Europeans say this Austrian Party is Alt-Right, far right, or right-white-nationalist because they believe importing people from cultures who in NO way share our values at best (and at worst, want to destroy the West) is bad, or that “diversity” is not our “strength”, or that abortion is bad?

The Left here and abroad think anyone who disagrees with them is a Nazi, and these people in this “Austrian Party” are close enough to German for the Left, so it is a slam dunk for them.

Well, Land-O-Fakes has bought into it, so I am done with them.

No problem. Kerrygold is a far superior butter. But I might drop Land O'Leftists an email.

I’d like to stop buying it, but I don’t buy it anyhow. Great Value from Walmart is good for us.

like most other companies who lean liberal and restrict their support for anything / anyone who is pro American, in this case, like Congressman Steven King. I surmise that Land O Lakes company will soon go the way of other companies who still suffer from lost business (Dick’s Sporting Goods, NFL) for their lack of support for what most Americans favor.

Kerrygold makes cheese??? Where have I been? Their butter is so darn good, and so superior to any other butter. I'll bet their cheese tastes better too.

That’s okay there are other butters and eggs out there. Republicans don’t call and threaten boycott, we just stop buying.
