“The Blue State on Wall Street is a staple that I pass by every day,” said Emily Zhang ’25. “The world will not be the same without it. Ask me not how many times I have actually gone in there to buy something, but how many times I have been on the receiving end of vibes from there.”

The donated 1 million to left causes, can you say laundromat? and free coffee?
I’m noticing that prime Starbucks urban locations are closing. Starbucks paid dearly but couldn’t stand up to the risk of racism and empathy to homeless.
Throughout this whole premium coffee revolution of the past 30 years or so, Dunkins continues to make the most consistently good cup of coffee at a reasonable cost.
Most business owners are left wing. Unless they own a manual labor intensive business like construction.
There’s a place near me called Red State Barbecue. I ate there once. The food was good, but despite the name, I wasn’t given a dose of conservative politics with my meal.
in June, Starbucks (SBUX) workers at an Ithaca, New York, store claimed their location was being shut down in retaliation for their union activism. The worker committee said at the time that it was filing an Unfair Labor Practice charge with the NLRB, alleging that Starbucks (SBUX) was making a “clear attempt to scare workers across the country.”

Looked up..location nr Boston University closed in 2020.
Coffee and woke politics—coffeeshop in Lynn MA was doing ok then the manager, the daughter of the owner, expressed anti-police sentiments after a rival shop did a “coffee with a cop” event. (Get to know your
police..)
The police politely said they had no plans to patronize the shop at all, even just as
customers. Many customers also said
they’d stop going there due to the
anti cop attitude, even after the owner
frantically apologized for daughter’s actions.
Went out of business.
***. Went out of business. ***
Suicide by woke.
I like hot black dunkin. Yeah its the bud light of coffee but its easy on my constitution. And seeing fewer adults hanging around with coloring books is good.
Quote: “Most business owners are left wing. Unless they own a manual labor intensive business like construction.”
Huh? Most business owners, at least small to mid-size, are as to the right as you can get. They, more than anyone, understand the jackbooted thuggery of government regulation.
Not on the West Coast. I have yet to meet a non-construction business owner who is MAGA right wing.
LoL.......
The graph doesn’t make sense - which are the Dunkin Donuts revenues the orange or the purple
The orange. Not sure why they jammed Baskin Robbins in there but they are both owned by same company.
thanx
To the people who politicized coffee: nuts to you.
You are looking in all the wrong places.
Possible.
