How much did you think about Coca Cola last year?

How much did you think about Coca Cola in the last week?

So you’re saying we should just ignore Coca Cola calling white people racists?

That’s a great long term strategy for fighting the culture war.

No, I'm saying these corporations seem to be engaging on the policy that any publicity is good publicity.

Don't buy their crap and prove them wrong... problem is they have so many fingers in so many pies and they know that!

I think marketing people (and HR internally), just can't help themselves. These politically correct, virtue signally millenials are all grown up now and this is how the view the world when discussing things in their own enclaves. We have a lot of work to do to change things.

You're probably right, but Hanlon's Razor, etc.

I'd like to see a future case study on how going woke ends up working out for Proctor & Gamble via Gillette. Who knows if it really hurt their bottom line or if they were pulling a fast one to cover for a stock buyback or other deal gone wrong.

Gillette released a heated razor last year that kind of reminds me of RJ Renoylds smokeless cigarette failure.

No, just stop buying it and move on. It's garbage anyway.

I think about Coca Cola a lot. I will now since this last week, think about them much less. I will not cruise through the McD’s drive through just for a Coke anymore.
