Okay, so just my two cents, take this for what you will.

brc, might be vet owned and operated. Might be ran by good people, I don't know - i never bothered with he hype and jumped on their bandwagon. It has become clear to me, now more than ever, these guys were just 2A LARPers and used it to push their brand.

I don't support Kyle Rittenhouse for killing people, I support Kyle Rittenhouse for putting himself in a hostile situation and protecting himself by any means necessary, when other "patriots" wouldn't. That boy is a patriot through and through - these guys just sell coffee... Fuck them.

Yeah, coffee sellers wussing out won’t keep me up at night, but I’m not giving my $$$ to people that won’t back Kyle. There’s IronClad coffee roasters in RVA that seem based - they dig all the Babylon Bee memes and I’ve seen them make some subtle based messages - also family owned. Might need to reach out.

I mean, its just my opinion, but BRC's whole marketing scheme was appealing to gun enthusiasts and used their veteran status as clout, along side some beautiful girls holding up guns and shit. They're weren't "asking" for support, they were marketing for it and with retweets from JR and active promotion here on T_D, they made enough money to not give a fuck and shill.

I'm sure BRC has their reasons to shill - but to me personally, as a veteran myself, this move they pulled was extremely unpatriotic -- and I would think they would know the difference, but I guess not.

As far as coffee goes, I support what's local as long as they stay apolitical. I'll support anything as long as they stay apolitical. BRC, in my opinion, used politics to sell the brand, just like Nike ads appeal to BLM and the NBA appeals to China. Lets be realistic, BRC just so happen to gain notoriety during a time of gun grabs and bans - which made the blow up, and now they are just proving they have no idea what 2A really means. No fucking idea. They meme'd themselves.

I understand if they don't support Kyle. I totally understand that. He's a controversial figure. But making a statement that favors the left is a slap in the face. So, fuck Black Rifle Coffee. If they had said nothing, I'd be okay with buying their coffee.

yep. i'm sick of this appeasement angle that's been going on for far too long. it's our fault. we've tolerated it from our representatives. we tried to be civil.
