So they will do sensitivity training, give money to the United negro college fund and/or historic black universities, pledge to open more stores in black neighborhoods, and then all is forgiven. Maybe even give some to people like Sharpton and Jackson.

I hope they stress my white privilege is every bit as important as black lives matter.

Rush used to say “this is too easy” when he started to jokingly comment on liberal silliness (as the twin brothers who supposedly now deserved sympathy because after they murdered their own parents the young men were now orphans!)

Sadly, universities already push anti- white male indoctrination sessions to re-educate students who have unconscious microagression tendencies and do things like work hard (a white trait that embarrasses persons of color on campus) and get good grades ( sign of profiting from white privilege).

As a staff member I passed such a test with a 100% score on such things as when is a given action or word insulting to muslim students. By the way “Everyone is equal and should be treated the same” is now a racist statement (it implies we won’t grant special privileges and rights for persons of color).

Corporate political re-education and brainwashing.

I guess we are there already. Just not the 1984 scenario everyone expected.

The flip side of “white privilege” is “black entitlement”

My Keurig takes care of all my coffee needs. I can get any coffee I want and for the price of one of their coffees, i can get a can or bag of good coffee that lasts me a few weeks.

Dramatic statement aimed directly at Black Americans.

Two words: Dunkin’ Donuts.

DD’s coffee is far better and sans the virtue-signaling baggage of Tarbucks.

It would be cool if during that one day, millions of people discovered a place with better and cheaper coffee that they prefer,(or have a sudden attack of common sense) and Starbucks never recovers.

Not the coffee but all the capp, latte,frapp nonsense they sell. Some commercials even make fun of them and their millenial fanbase by showing some snowflake ordering a super double half caff soy milk frapp with double whip. I rarely go cause all I drink is coffee and there are chwaper and better places to get a cuppa joe. But I may go thwre to hang out and use the wifi now that I dont have to buy anything. Maybe I will bring my 711 coffee with me

Good news, you don’t have to buy anything and can spend all day there, if not married you can check out the “baristas”.
If married, you can check out the baristas.

Not one open? I’ll travel anywhere. I’ve got have my coffee!

Certainly there are some in da’ hood where black employees must be exempt as they wouldn’t need such training.

Oh, wait. There’s a Brew You just up the street....

I presume that White Starbucks employees will now spend their time apologizing for being White.
