A week into the fiasco over Georgia's election law, most Americans want to know: just who are these woke CEOs listening to? Not to their shareholders, who can't make a profit when their companies alienate half of the country. Not to lawyers or legislators, who could set them straight on what the policy actually does. And certainly not to U.S. consumers, who are sending a resounding message that they're done with businesses who can't check their radicalism at the door long enough to read a 98-page piece of legislation.
"It's insanity," Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) agreed on "Washington Watch." Like most people, he can't believe that Major League Baseball, Coca-Cola, Delta, and so many others would put the solvency of their companies on the line to make a political point that -- it turns out -- isn't even true! When even MSNBC is telling Joe Biden he "needs to keep it honest," the Democratic Party has reached a low even the liberal media can't believe. And yet the White House and its field marshals in Hollywood and Atlanta created such a ridiculous narrative about this law that people like Willie Geist are going on the most radical news outlet in the country and insisting it's impossible to "square the president's argument."
"[D]oesn't it seem that a lot of people jumped the gun?" Joe Scarborough asked in follow-up. They moved the MLB All-Star Game "before actually either reading the bill or understanding how the bill lined up with New Jersey laws, with New York laws, with laws all across the nation," he said. Then, astounding even more viewers, he took aim at the lynchpin of the Left's whole argument. "...

NOT owned by Coke.
Own it MLB, the population where you moved is more white. Sorry that your racism is showing. I found out Simply juices are a coke product. No more in this household.
Wokey mcwokersons!!!! Lol. Lotriplel!!!! Love it !
Great takeoff on the British boat thing
Will still drink Sprite
Calamansi (lemons and limes are extremely hard to come by in the Philippines) is the only non-Sprite option here. And don’t work at all for mixed drinks.
Tastes nasty by itself and only good for the famous soy sauce, chili and calamansi combination (sometimes vinegar sauce) for meats
Coke has been social warriors for many years. Remember when they wanted to teach the world to sing?
I love Gold Peak Tea.
I stopped it with the coke today. its a real habit for me. switched to generic sams club today and plan to try difrent colas till I find one I like....my small kick at coke is about 60 dollars a month.

Most off-brands, including Pepsi, no doubt get their formula by trying to emulate cow swill as closely as possible.
RC Cola, Sam’s club, Aldi, Glenrock and other generic brands were the cheap crap brands you bought to save a few pennies for a party or cookout and left you with the surprised pikachu face when they remained untouched at the end of the party or cookout.
Same with Sprite or Cherry Coke... the off brands are just ... off
Braves Falcons and Hawks should all move or disband. We can outwore the woke. :)
Outwoke the woke
Corporate CEO’s are now listening to twenty-something self appointed zampolits in the HR departments with no real world experience .
Yes, I like the Simply Limeade and SmartWater, but I stopped buying either one last week.
I’ve heard many people in the NYC area say that Royal Crown cola is the best. I thought they were gone, but saw a reference to them the other day (don’t remember if it was related to this stuff or not) so maybe they are still around. If you see that you might want to try it.
“I’d like to buy the world a Coke,
unless you’re white, in which case it ain’t right,
and you get nothing from me.
It’s the real thing! Woke-a-cola!”
I did some temp work for Pepsi back in the ‘80s. Remember “The Pepsi Challenge”?
It was an actual booth we set up at fairs, etc. Honestly tallying, the Pepsi came out on top every time.
My user name says it all.
RC Cola is not an “off brand”. I drank it for years. It doesn’t taste like coke or Pepsi, it has more flavor. I had to get used to the taste of coke when I moved south, because RC was more expensive and less available than it was in the upper Midwest. Most people down here drink Pepsi products, but they’re way too sweet. Actually, I don’t drink any soda anymore.

Used to like Pepsi, I find it too sweet now.
And only drink Coke with Jack and others.
Switched to Sprite. Don’t really like 7-up either. Coke products dominate the market in the Philippines.
When in the US, always got the flavored teas at fast-food places, but alas, coca-cola is dominant there.
Water is great when not eating foods. I like extremely spicy. And only sprite or coke works. Water makes it worse. Way worse. And sucking on a sugar packet just doesn’t do it for me.
