Starbucks was ordered to pay $25.6 million in damages to a white employee it fired because of her race.

"So when companies do their instinctive cost-benefit analysis, the occasional payout is inconsequential compared to politically correct benefits such as friendly media treatment, the receipt of woke capital, cocktail-party-circuit acceptance, immunity to fed scrutiny and EEOC lawsuits, and career security."
Change will ONLY happen after the senior management and their armies if Ivy League educated scum are destroyed!
Although I’m happy with the verdict against Star#ucks, it’s a tremendous burden for society and for business to be under constant threat from lawsuits over vague actions like ‘discrimination’ etc. and if they’re not getting sued by one side, they’ll get sued by the other.
The absolute drain on society and our economy from “diversity” simply is beyond measure. The economic dollars, the non-stop media coverage of alleged racism, racism witchhunts, mandatory diversity ‘training’/indoctrination, and on and on... our entire society revolves around the Ted Kennedy created national religion of “diversity” and the more bizarre the better....
Folks, i have a 100% guaranteed cure for any and all racism.... all you have to do is create homogenous societies and all of this “discrimination” goes away and all of the time, energy, and money spent on uncovering racism under every rock goes away overnight and all of those resources can be spent on solving real problems.
Have they learned? Oh heck no! Liberals still think that socialism can work despite socialists falling apart at the seams all over the world, just like it always has- they just think it “hasn’t been correctly implemented yet”
Must have been an interesting conversation. I’m sorry, we’ll have to let you go. We gave you lots of time to adjust, but you’re still white. Have you tried rubbing it off, or painting over it? No. You keep being white, so we have to let you go.
Or their stock price bottoms out
There must be some type of employee agreement contract to preclude this type of thing happening.
Did you even try a sun lamp? Huh? Huh?
Bkmk
proud to say, I haven’t been in a starbucks in 10 years.
Is this more collateral damage from that incident in Philadelphia where Starbucks called the cops on two black guys who were there to meet a prospective employer?
Yes.
“The woman, ex-regional manager Shannon Phillips, was scapegoated after a high-profile 2018 incident in which two black men were arrested for loitering at a Philadelphia Starbucks and refusing to leave when asked.”
All companies have insurance covering the personal liability of officers. Tens of millions of $$.
All discrimination lawsuits must go after officers by name when something goes wrong. “It was him! Him, he signed the memo!”.
That invokes the insurance. And, insurance companies have no soul. They will ruin anyone and anything. At this point companies will start thinking about long term consequences — like no longer being able to afford such insurance. That puts their townhomes and boats at risk.
Starbucks can have just black customers for all I care. They will then become what they wish....broke.
It is time to destroy all leftist business like starbucks, AB, gillette, burger king, netflix, disney and on and on.
