Here’s a link to Howard Schultz’s smarmy, condescending statement on gay marriage in its totality.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaCfvr9EFKs
In it Schultz makes clear that the decision to support gay marriage was to embrace diversity, and he got thunderous applause, and admitted it was not an economic decision. It was a political decision. He is using his business as a pulpit to advance leftist causes.
And Starbucks does not embrace diversity. They only embrace leftist causes which they wrap in the mantle of embracing diversity. Embracing diversity is an uttlery bankrupt concept in and of itself. Do they embrace thieves and hire them? Do they embrace arsonists and hire them? Do they knowingly hire spies from competitors who want to know more about how their business is run? Do they go out of their way to hire Christians in Muslim nations and Hindu nations and Communist nations — and then go very publicly stating they have done so? No, no, and no.
Starbucks has a long list of left-wing preening and grandstanding. For example, they also had baristas engage in conversations on race — another leftist disaster.
Plus they are against the Second Amendment. Remember the thing about don’t bring yor gun to Starbucks?
The CEO is a pompous leftist know-it-all. I would never support his business based on that, irregarless of whether this Christmas coffe cup was made up or not.
In fact, it is the CEO’s long history of pushing leftist causes that makes people believe the phony story about Christmas coffee cups.
Not only do I intend to NOT drink Starbucks ever but to encourage others to steer clear of the place because the profits they generate are being used against them all around the world.
Indeed, Schultz sounds like a wanna be George Soros. To hell with him and his coffee!
I’m not certain why you tagged me in your reply...
Although I do agree that Starbucks is certainly a left wing corporation, as is Apple, Microsoft, Intel, etc.... My whole point is some idiot decided to make a big deal of coffee cups and people are acting like the world is falling apart. Coffee cups. I am literally laughing right now as I drink McDonalds coffee from, wait for it, a plain red cup! Yep! The Heathens at McDonalds are also Satan worshipping donkeys!!!! They must hate God too.
I do not understand your rant on diversity. “And Starbucks does not embrace diversity. Do they embrace arsonists and hire them? Do they knowingly hire spies from competitors who want to know more about how their business is run? Do they go out of their way to hire Christians in Muslim nations and Hindu nations and Communist nations — and then go very publicly stating they have done so? No, no, and no.”
You are right, Starbucks doesn’t do this but who the hell would????
