I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, “Get Woke, Go Broke.” In the curious case of Coca-Cola, going woke may be the single biggest branding mistake in the history of marketing.
In late February a whistleblower came forth with screenshots, posted on YouTube, of slides from Coke’s internal ‘diversity training’ course urging its employees to quote, “Be less white.”
And by ‘less white’ they mean subservient. They don’t mean be more sensitive.
When this happened, I immediately said to myself, “Scratch ever buying another Coke product off my list.” Not a moment’s angst or energy went into it.
“Be less white?”
“Drink no Coke.”
Why? Because choosing not to buy a Coke on the rare occasion I buy a soda anymore is an easy one. Sugar (or aspartame) and water in and of itself isn’t anything to get excited about, it’s the association of Coca-Cola with a past positive experience that is.
And they just told me I’m a bad person because of the heritage of my birth.

2 liter bottle of Coke- $1.89; 2 liter of generic “cola”- $0.79...No-brainer...

I guess you lost your taste buds or a nasty aftertaste doesn’t affect you much? No brainer. Generic cola isn’t even fit to be used with Jack Daniels

That ought to wake Coke up real good. Let them suddenly realize they are expendable in the new Commie system they are jumping in bed with.
LOL... Who would ruin Jack Daniels with any mix? Do you work for Coca-Cola?

Won’t drink it straight for sure. Too strong for my pussy ass. I like some carbonation and some Coke. Sprite, Fresh Mango Juice with Johnny Walker.
Nope. Don’t work for Cola-Cola. Pepsi is too damn sweet and all other off-brands of Cola I’ve tried just taste plain nasty.
Appreciate the frankness...To each his own...
