Liberal Ice Cream-Making Hippies Tried Going Woke But it Backfired Epically

Don’t you love all of these companies who are going “woke?” Trust me, they’re all gonna go broke when this is all said and done. Americans have had it with this corporate activism. These companies will get the exact same treatment that Hollywood and sports franchises have gotten…and that’s abysmal ratings, loss of respect, and a bunch of pissed-off fans. That’s the only place this path leads to – a sad and lonely existence spread-eagle on the altar of progressivism.

But they don’t care right now – all these hypocrites want to do is score some quick progressive brownie points. But they’re having an issue along the way. Just look at liberal ice cream makers “Ben & Jerry’s” who tried to get super woke and ended up with egg and cream all over their faces. The ice cream makers put out this incendiary “Defund the Police” tweet:

“The murder of #DaunteWright is rooted in white supremacy and results from the intentional criminalization of Black and Brown communities. This system can’t be reformed. It must be dismantled and a real system of public safety rebuilt from the ground up. #DefundThePolice”

But that wasn’t the real kicker in all of this…here’s what really buried these aging hippies….

I think this resentment of things that are “woke” and trying to destroy the Constitution are going to bite the Liberals in the butt in the mid-terms.

I notice on Twitter they hide any negative Tweets.

“It must be dismantled and a real system of public safety rebuilt from the ground up.”

Ah, there’s the magic words, “public safety”. Meaning that the goal is to replace police with jackbooted Antifa blackshirts.

It didn't backfire at all - a few tweets and some guy breaking into a franchised store isn't "backfire". Conservatives need to start punishing woke businesses the way the leftists threaten to do - until then, Corporate America is going to go with the Left, since they can back up their threats.

Isn’t the Red Hen Restaurant still open in Lexington, VA? Liberal businesses rarely get punished for being anti-conservative, anti-white, anti-patriot, anti-American.

My one main question is why do multi million dollar plus corporations have more power than the citizen of these United States? And how can we take back control when the polictian’s won’t side with the people they claim to represent. I wait.

You mean in the same way and/or manner YouTube does it?
LMAO.

I should have screenshot the stuff but I remember when you could go to the White House YouTube in the early week or so of the BidenIdiocy Administration and find that virtually all the videos posted up had TENS of THOUSANDS of dislikes.......not no more. They all have been scrubbed and continue to be scrubbed.

“Hippies” Ben & Jerry sold out to global mega-corporation Unilever many years ago.

I am absolutely AMAZED that a corporation with approx. $60 billion in sales is on Twitter calling for the abolition of police and dismantling “the system.”

It speaks volumes about our society, corporations and American politics. None of it good.

I haven’t bought any of their crap for decades when I learned every purchase funds a donation to a “progressive cause”.

I have never bought Ben and Jerry’s ice cream and I never will going forward. They have always been part of the American hating woke left.

Nope. Democrats have taken the term, “get out the vote” to a new level. It’s not who votes, it’s WHO COUNTS the votes. The dems have this process so refined, they should win some sort of Nobel prize for fraud and deceit.

And...

The Supreme Court is essentially complicit in voter fraud since it failed to address the issue.

Huh. Yeah. “Weed out the vote” is more like it.
