Dishonest reportage by Citizens Free Press and many gullible people who don’t read source material are the problem.
..................................................
Thanks for clarifying that. Trouble is most people, myself included, just don’t have time to be backtracking to the original source of whatever it is they’re reading. If everyone who failed to go looking for original sources is “gullible” I guess that might describe most everyone but YOU!

I read the full article:

1. They called the Proud Boys Racists
2. They said they hate (with expletives) many of their conservative customers.
3. They implied they no longer support Trump or the movement.

I can read. Can you?

In some cases, BR is more expensive than SB.

At home I drink instant and I love it. The big jar from Costco.

I like Peet’s when I’m out and I get the gift cards from Costco so my lattes are 20 percent off (like three bucks in real money).

Now what. Dag nab it.

Well, I tried to read the full article, but I’m not going to pay The NY Times for that privilege. They are surely experiencing backlash, you would think they would have a prominent explanation, but I didn’t see anything when I canceled my coffee club subscription.

I’ve purchased their coffee. It’s good. I wouldn’t drink it now if they gave it to me. Good riddance to another traitor. Let’s put ‘em all out of bizzness.

Ben Shapiro & Co. hawk "Black Rifle" coffee, don't they? Will be interested to see if they continue advertising their merchandise.

He said a few of the proud boys are racist and that he didn’t mind them not buying his coffee. Are you a reporter for Citizens Free Press. They’re just as bad as as msnbc or cnn. Also, I doubt you read the NYTimes article, if so then you have a comprehension problem, again you’re leaving out qualifiers that he used in his statements. And they never said they do not support President Trump, again it is just your opinion when you say they “implied”.

Yes, not only can I read, I can comprehend too. Apparently you cannot do both. And it would seem you’re just as dishonest as the reporter that wrote this article for the Citizens Free Press.

First, sorry about the “I can read” comment. I am trying to stop posting unnecessarily inflammatory remarks such as that. They do nothing productive.

As to the actual article. Here are verbatim excerpts:

“Nevertheless, the Black Rifle executives were unwilling to get too introspective about what their company might have done to lead people on the far right, people they personally revile, to identify with the Black Rifle brand.”

“The Rittenhouse episode may have cost the company thousands of customers, but, Hafer believed, it also allowed Black Rifle to draw a line in the sand. “It’s such a repugnant group of people,” Hafer said. “It’s like the worst of American society, and I got to flush the toilet of some of those people”

“I hate racist, Proud Boy-ish people. Like, I’ll pay them to leave my customer base. I would gladly chop all of those people out of my [expletive] customer database and pay them to get the [expletive] out.”

Those are straight from the full article.

All these guys care about is making money. Piles of it. Once again patriots are road kill in the culture wars. The corporate appetited for wokeness seems insatiable.

Someone earlier mentioned what I think is the purpose for them doing this article. People don’t realize there is already a form of social acceptance rating being applied to companies for banking purposes and credit ratings.

I believe this was done to improve their poor score to gain access to better terms and sources of funding for their attempts at physical stores.

Most people have no idea what is being done at the top levels of these global corporations today. Marxism/Socialism/Communism is not what is happening - we are under CORPORATE FASCISM plain and simple. The corporatists just use the marxists as cheap foot soldiers to silence opposition - “the enemy of my enemy” and all that.

Foot? I’d say that was a groin shot. Right in the Richard.

The NYT’s? I will take it with a giant grain of salt.

BRCC has shot off a few of its own toes previously, so in this instance NYT adds no additional doubt. This is already a tainted brand.

I’m glad I roast my own coffee. Unroasted coffee is cheaper, and you get exactly the roast on it you want. If you want to burn your coffee like SB does, feel free. If you actually want to taste the actual coffee itself though, you’re better off going lighter on it.

Black Rifle Coffee - in the heart of commie SLC, marketing to right-wing suckers using an AR-15 symbol as a logo. Suckers never learn.
