In one example, a mural was displayed in the factory from 2005 to 2021 as a memorial for Confederate leaders using General Mills mascots, like the Cocoa Puffs cuckoo bird portraying the president of the confederacy, Jefferson Davis, and the Honey Nut Cheerios bee depicting General Stonewall Jackson, the lawsuit said.

Whatever else is going on, I want to see a picture of this.
If it really existed.
Ever notice how the flames of racism seem to always get fanned right around every presidential election?......weird 🤔
And freaking dispicable
Depicting a leader as a sugar-addled crazy bird is not exactly complimentary to Jefferson Davis.
Once again, blaming Whitey for their self inflicted pathologies and failures.
Disgruntled minority employees looking for a payday.......also I have to wonder how much cnn did to motivate them.
I imagine that should be good for tens of millions in restitution and reparations.
communist “long march through the institutions” continues.
They also claimed that Uncle Ben’s Rice and Aunt Jemima were racist brands.
Now no business will ever dare place the image of a black person onto a product (unless it’s a documentary about pygmy cannibals). /spit
“a manager calling them “colored,” a racist term.”
Considering what I’ve heard blacks call each other I’d say that would be a compliment.
They show up to work. They do their jobs. And they are not indoctrinated by the woke ideology here in the U.S.

I’d settle for never having to hear another fast food restaurant commercial with a loud mouth black guy yelling the voice-over.......ever notice that nowadays they all do?........freakin’ obnoxious.

Some people will look at anything or anybody and quickly exclaim that they very clearly see ‘the really bad racist images’ displayed for all to see.
During the Cold War years, it was common for people to say that about seeing ‘communism’ under every fringed pillow and inside of every darkened file drawer.
Indeed.
Historically, Georgia was all in on the South’s side during the Civil War and certainly paid the price for it. Georgians viewed Confederate leaders as heroes and Northern armies as invading enemies. How odd that a factory in Georgia would have a mural celebrating the Confederacy in a humorous and lighthearted way.
Happily, times have changed and if it knows what’s good for it, the plant will have a mural honoring St. George of Fentanyl. /s
yes, its mostly true. Corporations need cheap labor and Central American migrants will indeed work hard. We've inculcated a generation of black (and many white too) Americans with the woke "screw-the-man" and welfare identity.
Cocoa Krispies, but no Vanilla Krispies? I am outraged. and demand satisfaction!
