PepsiCo gives $1,000,000 to help promote the gay agenda

Company forces employees to attend sexual orientation classes

PepsiCo has refused a request by AFA to remain neutral in the culture war. The company indicated that it will continue major financial support of homosexual organizations. AFA wrote Pepsi two times (on October 14 and October 29) requesting a meeting to discuss Pepsi’s neutrality in the culture war.

On November 17, AFA received a condescending letter (dated Nov. 7) from Paul Boykas, director, public policy, in which he refused to address Pepsi’s support of the homosexual agenda.

In the last two years, Pepsi has given $500,000 to the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) and $500,000 to the Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG). The $1,000,000 was to be used to help promote homosexuality in the workplace. Pepsi refuses to give money to any pro-family organization that opposes the homosexual agenda. Plus, every homosexual organization we know of is overwhelmingly pro-abortion.

Both HRC and PFLAG supported efforts in California to defeat Proposition 8 which defined marriage as being between a man and a woman. HRC, the homosexual group financially supported by Pepsi, gave $2.3 million to defeat Prop 8.

Pepsi forces all employees to attend sexual orientation and gender identity diversity training where they are taught to accept homosexuality.

My fave is seeing chicks order a rum & diet coke.

Any clue what rum is made from, toots?

Yeah, he's pretty funny. That's Christopher Lowell.

I have no idea whether he's gay. None of my business. He is an interior designer, though. Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Ironically, most of these multiple cultures we’re supposed to emulate are themselves uni-cultures, intolerant of other ways and hostile toward outsiders.

Ironically, this includes the culture of multiculturalism.

Don't forget that Pepsi owns (or used to) Kentucky Fried Chicken, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut.

I prefer......

Pepsi associations:

Partnerships
PepsiCo also has formed partnerships with several brands it does not own, in order to distribute these or market them with its own brands.

Elma Chips, leader of the Brazilian chip’s market
Frappuccino
Starbucks DoubleShot
Starbucks Iced Coffee
Mandarin (license)
D&G (license)
Lipton Brisk
Lipton Original Iced Tea
Lipton Iced Tea
Ben & Jerry’s Milkshakes
Dole juices & juice drinks (license)
Sunny Delight (produced by PepsiCo for Procter & Gamble)

Former brands
PepsiCo owned a number of restaurant chains until it exited that business in 1997, selling some, and spinning off others into a new company Tricon Global Restaurants, now known as Yum! Brands, Inc.. PepsiCo also previously owned several other brands that it later sold.

California Pizza Kitchen (bought 1992, sold back to original founders in 1997)
Chevys Fresh Mex (bought August 1993, sold May 1997 to J. W. Childs Equity Partners)
D’Angelo Sandwich Shops (sold August 1997 to Papa Gino’s)
East Side Mario’s (United States franchises – bought December 1993, sold early 1997 )
Hot ‘n Now (bought in 1990, sold in 1997)
KFC (bought October 1986 from RJR Nabisco, spun off October 1997 to form TriCon, later Yum! Brands)
North American Van Lines
Pizza Hut (bought in 1977, spun off October 1997 to form TriCon, later Yum! Brands)
Stolichnaya
Taco Bell (bought in 1978, spun off October 1997 to form TriCon, later Yum! Brands)
Wilson Sporting Goods

Pepsi spun off KFC, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut in 1997 so those stores are safe.

I’m big, so I’d have to wear two. I’m referring to two tutus, too!

That would be a quadratu.

Geez. Diet Wild Cherry Pepsi has been by drink of choice for four years. It’s the first thing I grab when I wake up. Anyone have a suggestion of what I should turn to? (For several years before, it was Diet Mt Dew!).

Just add your own flavoring to a Diet Coke.

This whole thing is a pain to me because I frequent Wendy’s and Arby’s (same company). Both contract with PepsiCo.

Messes up the combo meals — guess I have to start getting them with iced tea (but is Pepsi supplying that? — very likely)

Seems like most of the big corporations are supporting the global socialist agenda in some way or another.

Try Vernor's Ginger Ale.

(A little added bourbon does wonders.)

If you wish to let Pepsico know of your displeasure they can be reached at 800-433-2652.

Management sounds tone deaf to such appeals. Probably heavily infiltrated with libs and other queers. However... I'd bet my house that shareholders would not be tone deaf, especially when they got wind that a massive internet boycott was brewing.

So maybe it's also time to start a little letter-writing campaign aimed at Pepsi's largest shareholders?

I LOVE that stuff. Can't find the diet in Pittsburgh, unfortunately. Drank it steadily in GA.

“No more Pepsi” ping.

Well, here’s another reason I drink Coka-Cola

Don't like U.S. Coca-Cola (yes, I saw your spelling).

The stuff you get overseas is MUCH better.

Love Vernor's, don't bourbon, but...

I already dont drink pepsi or any soft drink. My question is are they making all employees attend religious orientation classes too? After all both sexual preference and religion are all choices we make. People aren’t gay or religious from birth.
