Keep up the boycott of all Coca-Cola products.
Obviously the massive multinational corporation cannot admit they made a mistake lest they get attacked by the extremists on the far-left; however, all of Coca-Cola’s recent moves since they stupidly put their company into the toxic political mess surrounding election reform legislation -particularly in GA- indicates the company is experiencing destabilizing impacts from the MAGA boycott. DO NOT RELENT !
(Bloomberg Legal) The Coca-Cola Co. announced Wednesday that it is moving legal chief Bradley Gayton to a “strategic consultant” role less than a year after he joined the company and promoting in-house lawyer Monica Howard Douglas to general counsel.
Gayton, who joined Coca-Cola on Sept. 1 and recently announced ambitious new diversity requirements for the company’s outside lawyers, will immediately become a strategic consultant to Coca-Cola chairman and CEO James Quincey.
[…] Coca-Cola spokesman Scott Leith, when asked about the impetus for its general counsel change or whether Gayton’s strategic consulting role is a permanent or temporary position, said the company would have no additional comment. (read more)
It is almost impossible to boycott all of the multinational corporations that are attempting to influence U.S. politics. However, if we focus like a laser on two or three: Delta Airlines, Coca-Cola and Major League Baseball, we can send a massive message that will hit the boardrooms of all others.
Take Coke down a few pegs…. and the rest will fall in line.

Good for him. That move cost him millions
Get woke, go broke.
I went out to their corporate public relations contact site and wrote a comment:
In light of Coca Cola corporations recent decision to side against election integrity, I’ve decided to sell all my stock in this corporation and cease purchasing Coca Cola products.
They quickly came back with a response in support of diversity, inclusion...blah blah blah.
Got their attention.
“Strategic Consultant” wink wink!
But until Coke President James Quincey is replaced or demoted, things won’t really change.
Maybe this Bradley Gayton’s mistake was focusing too much on Black issues, but apparently at the expense of lavishing attention on Gay issues. Coke needs to stay with making drinks and snacks, period. Stop acting as if you belong to some new kind of priesthood or Lordship.
No problemo senior. No me gustan los conglomerados.
Coke made a big mistake getting into Georgia politics.
Good point. Consolidate resources, pick one target at a time and be relentless.
Taking Coca-Cola down a peg or two might send a message.
I wouldn’t feel too sorry for him. He most likely had some form of a golden parachute.
The CEO of Coca-Cola, Roberto Goizueta, graduated from my high school and gave the commencement address. My school was not conservative, but he was no liberal. His worst mistake was new Coke, and he recovered from that.
Not gone just a little shape-shifting of job positions.
GAYton. You bet.
Gayton, who recently unveiled a stringent diversity initiative, has resigned as the Atlanta-based beverage giant's top lawyer.After eight months on the job, Bradley Gayton, an outspoken diversity advocate, has resigned as the general counsel for the Coca-Cola Co.
The Atlanta-based beverage giant announced Wednesday that Monica Howard Douglas was stepping up from her chief compliance officer and associate GC position to serve as Gayton’s successor. Source: law.com
Behind closed doors, Intel is admitting their “Embrace” of Diversity between 2010 and 2018 was one of their biggest mistakes ever.
Hopefully Pat Gelsenger, the head designer of the 486 can get them back on track
As I posted on another thread, I had my first Diet Dr. Pepper today after years of drinking Diet Coke. It was quite good and I think it will now be go-to. Eff Coke!
That’s what you have to do to a minority hire. Face-saving press release...but Gayton’s packing his bags.
30% of Dr Pepper is mfg my Coke, FWIW
I love Dr. Pepper. Grateful it’s not a Coke product. And I always preferred 7up to Sprite. I do like Gold Peak iced tea though. But I can switch.
