I do love my diet Coke.

They are making it hard for me to buy it.
I actually winced last time I picked some up at the store.

2 liter Cokes, 4 for 5 dollars..cheap
Purchased in a tiny hamlet in the middle of nowhere.

One must have an ID to fly on their planes or, in some jurisdictions, to buy their energy drinks. So now they have a problem with an ID to vote?

[Tai_Chung]

Maybe Coca-Cola should apologize to all drug users and offer compensation. They did have cocaine in their product more than 100 years ago.

Time to go on the offensive.

[goodnesswins]

They are Racists...they think blacks cannot figure out ID

[Richard Axtell]

Its not a “backlash”, its a “Whitelash”. Backlash is a word too reminiscent of Slavery Days. Whitelash is too reminiscent of Albinism. Wrong color.

“.......... that makes it harder for people to vote. “

Lies.

And more Damn lies

[Chickensoup]

“The true headline would be

COCA-COLA JOINS DELTA IN ADMITTING THAT THEY BELIEVE BLACK AMERICANS ARE TOO STUPID TO COMPREHEND AND USE IDENTIFICATION CARDS”

Pandering to Communists had worked so well for every other business so well.

delta losing its tax breaks .

Coke goes down as smooth as battery acid.

[metmom]

Businesses need to focus on running their business and quit passing judgment on what the representatives of the people do.

[moovova]

To heck with’em.

They can move to CA or NY.

[myerson]

Odds are that they are corrupted by China.

[joshua c]

The message is clear. Be less white, dont buy Coke.

[desertfreedom765]

These are multinational companies, not American companies.

America is just another market to manage to their way of thinking.

Once you understand that everything makes sense.

Oh and Coke has been pushing their poison throughout the world for over 100 years. At least Delta provides a useful service, but their a lots of other carriers.

Dear CEO of Large Corporation:

Unless you are completely naive you must realize that the folks that are opposed to these voting regulations want people to vote who are most likely to vote for higher taxes and more regulations on your business.

The new voters are also likely to vote for higher minimum wages, more spending that results in higher interest rates, and more intrusive training and diversity requirements for your business.

Why, as a supposedly intelligent and knowledgeable CEO, would you want to oppose voting regulations that increase the chance that you will be able to continue to run your business the way you best see fit?

Do you really want a situation where you have to ask permission from the governor or Washington D.C. before making any important business decisions?

Do you really want the government looking over your shoulder every time you hire or fire an employee?

Do you have some sort of death wish for your company? Is your golden parachute so well manufactured that you and your career can survive in the environment that would be created by lax voting regulations?

Now Republicans are mad at the companies for speaking out.

Exhibit #202499433 of the media's propaganda. See how this statement not only trivializes the objection to the companies' stance, but infantilizes the Republicans? The companies were nobly "speaking out" while the Republicans were just "mad" about it, like children stomping their feet.

If it were blm or antifa or some other assortment of Democrats, the statement would be "Democrats are outraged at the companies' controversial statements, which many feel are hurtful to our more vulnerable communities."

Except, given that this is modern "journalism", there would be a lot more misspelled words, bad punctuation, and atrocious grammar.

[pierrem15]

They should not only revoke the current tax breaks but demand any taxes not paid be paid, and specify that it must come from the CEO's compensation package to protect the worker's and investor's interests against the idiots in management.

Bet they shutup real fast then.

[Savage Beast]

To hell with Coca Cola and Delta!
