In the words of social and political philosopher Eric Hofer, “Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and turns into a racket.” So when I read this tweet by Andy Ngo, I was intrigued.

“It’s such a repugnant group of people.”

The executives behind @blckriflecoffee, a coffee and lifestyle brand hugely popular with conservatives, has some choice words to describe part of its customer base.

communism is an idiocy that considers your “obvious” and undeniable facts to be “irrelevant”. I grew up with sisters indoctrinated by leftists. Point out facts/information/evidence that refutes their political position, they simply look back at you and say that your facts/information/evidence DOES NOT MATTER. AND! Then when you find yourself, with a silly look on your face trying to understand insanity... they will look at you and say “YOU JUST DON’T GET IT!” THAT! is the refrain of the propagandized fools!

Suckers come in all shapes and forms. Those suckers also included the likes of Crowder, etc.

It’s really “Celito Lindo” coffee.

I have a close friend in marketing. I was told millennials base product purchases on social issues companies. That is why you may see a rainbow flag on a shoe box etc.

I get all my coffee from a small family owned business in my hometown in South Dakota. Their coffee is outstanding in quality, fair trade and organic. Online orders are promptly filled and arrive fresh and vacuum packed. Their Mexican and Guatemalan coffees are fantastic.

last time i looked BRC didn’t offer single-variety coffees, just blends of unknown composition ... to me, they were just another one of a gazillion over-priced micro coffee roasters with some kind of irrelevant schtick ...

there’s several of those in the area, playing off locality like Colorado Coffee or New Mexico Coffee, like coffee grows around these places ...

to me, it was always a red-flag that the BRC brand and names were designed to appeal to a specific slice of customers based on politics rather than the actual virtues of their coffee ...

i’m serious about the flavor virtues of the coffee beans i use for making my espressos, and cute names and brands and putative appeals to “patriotism” and such just don’t do it for me ... never did ... so if BRC wants to implode their carefully cultivated nonsense, i could care less ...

Glenn Beck is a convert to Mormonism, but he lives in Texas and has a cattle ranch in Idaho.

Beck was not a Trump supporter but he is now.

He and his wife were invited to the White House Christmas party last December.

It is a patriot hustle. All too common and a shame.
