Not really. We’re seeing it take place in real time (not that there’s anything wrong with that, of course).

Why was Coke funding domestic terrorists in the first place?

From a Dem strategic point of view, BLM basically served their purpose in 2020. And their name is still a helluva good slogan.

They won't actually drop BLM, they'll just hide it.

Not anymore. I am hearing that “Asian” and “Jewish” are just different shades of “White”.

Based on their training materials from a couple of years ago, I’m still too white for their products.

Too late. After being an extremely loyal customer for over 4 decades, I stopped buying all Woca Cola products 3 years ago. I’m never coming back.
