Not even one product I buy. This boycott will be easy
Then it's not a boycott. And if you were never a customer, it doesn't affect their bottom line, anyway.
THEY dont know that
Yes, THEY do. The point of a boycott is that they see their profits dip. If you never bought this shit in the first place... I'm sure you see where I'm going.
They’ll still sell their products at schools and rest stop vending machines... so yeah, they won’t see it affect them much at all.
Like you pointed out, I’ve been boycotting them for years, because they’re poison and bad for your health... them hating my skin color just shows I got it right before it was ‘trendy’.
Excellent point!
Also...love the username! ^_^
Think a little deeper here, what if this whole thing woke thing is an attack on Coca cola by Warren Buffett to make coca cola stock go down, so he can buy it up?
Maybe. But WE can do that as well...
So I will start buying them and then stop
John sells apples. Lisa and Mary always buy his apples. He makes $10 a week. Sally wants to make John understand the power of a boycott so she decides to buy his apples one week and then not buy them ever again, like she always has. That week John makes $15. The next week John makes $10.
John benefitted from Sally's "boycott".
Excellent analogy
Maybe he can convince his kids/wife/friend to purchase some other rival product. Even if just for a couple of times, it would be a successful "boycott by proxy"!
What do you want him to do? Buy these products less than not at all? What an unnecessary comment.
Yer nuts.
Like kids who give up broccoli for Lent, it's no sacrifice. And it's no boycott to brag about if you don't buy the products, anyway.
That happens to be a fact. If you don't get it, that's your problem, but let people see how stupid you are. The only "unnecessary" comment was yours.
Thank gawd for the block button.
A single tear rolls down my cheek. Someone on the internet said something mean to me.
Of course, it does affect even if you are not a consumer of that product.
they (mass consumer products companies) make an average of production including the possible consumers who have never bought their product.
They will want to produce more and their sales will fall, which will be reflected in monetary losses.
Same here. I stopped drinking carbonated beverage/ soda almost 2 years ago. Black Coffee, unsweetened tea, water. A 5# bag of sugar lasts me 3-4 years.
That’s funny. The last time I had a friend over she wanted tea with a little sugar. My jar of sugar was a multi pound white.brick. I ended up taking a spoon and chipping some pieces off for her.
I only drink one type of carbonated beverage, it is the only reason I am up reading this right now in the middle of the night. A nasty cramp in my inner thigh muscle. The only thing that helps cramps in the middle of the night is Schwepps Tonic Water with Quinine, its the quinine that does the job.
A little gold colored can that is worth its weight in gold in the middle of the night when you have a nasty cramp. Right as you drink it you feel the blessed relief of the cramp fading away.
Good night, going back to bed now.
One can buy electrolyte powders to mix with water and flavoring agents of your choice to make a homemade sports drink, which may help in preventing those cramps to begin with. (potassium citrate for example - though make sure you use safe dosages only!)
I also have a mix I use to help reduce the severity of occasional gout flareups.
Thanks I'll look for some and try it,
Share your two recipes?
Disclaimer: not a doctor, do some research and consult your MD. The first is just using a teaspoon of potassium citrate powder added to some sugar free drink mix and water; since muscle cramps are often a symptom of not enough potassium (check the powder labeling to help calculate how many mg of potassium you are getting, adjust dosage accordingly to come far far far under the LD50). The second is I use a mix of potassium citrate, calcium citrate, and magnesium citrate in a mix, two teaspoons in a drink. Same precautions as before apply, the point of these is to help adjust blood pH to help flush uric acid buildup faster. Also, hydration, which helps flush uric acid buildup too. The latter formulation lets me skimp on gout medication or go without it entirely for way longer than I would get away with otherwise while still being able to eat meat.
Yep i use sugar for baking about once a year and that's it. I live in florida and big sugar pisses me off. None of this shit is good for you. It's like heroine on the brain.
I stopped using it while caring for Ralph. Type 2 diabetic, one of the veterans I did home care for. Not "nursing" care. I had a busines-, Domestic Home Services. I'd go do housecleaning, laundry, meal prep, errands, wifey type shit for my veterans group. I dissolved the business when the last veteran I was caring for passed away.
Now look into all the restaurant chains they own.
Not as easy as the WNBA boycott?
Same here, but I see a few that I can work on getting our company to switch products on.
I'll just remind them of Dasani water
2004 - "Dasani was collected and purified tap water from Sidcup, a district of southeast London. As if this wasn't bad enough, later in 2004, dangerous minerals, including bromate, contaminated the water. Bromate was suspected by the medical field to possess carcinogenic properties. This contamination led to Coca Cola recalling half a million bottles of Dasani water, the entire stock that was in British circulation at the time. A huge blow to the company, this second scandal meant the end of Dasani in the UK. Coca Cola ended its campaign and retreated. Dasani was subsequently banned in the UK and still is."
Why would anyone buy Dasani water?
At movie theaters.
Why would anyone go to movie theaters?
(sorry)
Did CocaCola respond to the accusations about providing the racist training? Was it confirmed they actually train their employees with that?
Tap water from water fountains would probably taste better
It is actual tap water
*toilet water
Fuck, I am too white for Simply Lemonade?! C'mon man!
Yeah I don’t drink any of the other stuff but I fucking love that lemonade. Damn it! Guess I’ll have to learn to make my own!
Try calypso lemonade. I find them in some gas stations.
I was a recommended this by someone and honestly wasn’t a fan. Way too sugary for me. Newman’s Own Pink Lemonade is the way to go!
When the gas station lemonade on offer is too sugary, I also buy some unsweetened tea to mix in it.
I buy probably 5-6 liters of their oj each week. Sucks because I like the product, but no more for these racist pieces of shit.
Agreed. Simply Orange juice high pulp is probably my favorite orange juice right now. But I could live without it, fuck em.
Tropicana has never let me down. Florida’s Best is solid too.
Please make the pilgrimage to fort myers and go to Sun Harvest. Your life would be forever changed in the juice world.
Thats too bad... I really liked Fanta
So did the Nazis.
Sprite for me.
It's all poison, including the water. Shouldn't be drinking anything with substances that have been thru an oil refinary.
And plasticizers in the bottles themselves leach into the drink and act as endocrine disruptors. Often mimicking estrogen. Most well known is BPA.
Xenoestrogens. Learn about them. Might explain where all this gender bender stuff is coming from.
Hemplastic, hempcrete ....the future
dude.....wtf you want me to do!?! pretty soon im gonna be boycotting down to a size 2 lmfao. im already doing all i can :/
Wait...since when is Schweppes owned by The Evil Empire?
Depends on the territory. It's a third-party product so sometimes Pepsi has the license, and other times Coke does. Same with Dr. Pepper.
That's kind of what I figured, since I'm a warehouse grunt for a competitor and I pick Schweppes and Pepper on a daily basis.
I hate this boycot behavior! Everytime I can't join in cause I already don't buy these products. Not watching the NFL? i haven't watched it in my entire life!
Actually they don't care so much about losing sales because they can just dial back production a bit - what they really care about is losing market share to competitors.
So if you went from water to drinking RC Cola they would feel it even worse than a boycott. Not a health idea this time, but maybe you can participate in future boycotts.
So I need to boycotted sugary cancer causing "drinks"?
Man, I just bought powerade -- no more though
Your teeth will thank you
Liquid diabeetus
Me too. I love powerade after a run. I dilute it with water 1 for 1 though.
I'm going to cut off Coke products though. I'm tired of the stupidity and I have to do something even if it's just to change my spending habits not to support the stupidity
I’m a Coke guy... grew up in Atlanta. If I can walk away from them, you can to! It’s fucked up because I’ve joked with boys that Pepsi is the drink of communist...
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!
Can anyone tell me what exactly was coke's anti-white agenda? Been outta the loop for a couple weeks now.
Edit: Looked into it, they told their employees to literally "try to be less white".
I'm not someone who jumps on these boycott bandwagons but, yea, I think this one will qualify.
Coke owns Fanta.
Fanta was LITEREALLY Nazis omg.
Coke is problematic.
please say Dr. Pepper and ozarka are okay.
Dr Pepper is owned by 7up, which is now Keurig Dr Pepper, but has regional distribution agreements both Pepsi and Coke as a result of the deal that ended their independence.
FWIW, Pepsi also distributes 7up internationally.
I don't know if I'm too White for that product but I'm probably not Japanese enough
Pede in Japan. It tastes like Dasani. Guess I'm switching to Pocari Sweat (over Aquarius) and maybe Suntory/Kirin for water.
Same with Proctor & Gamble.
Powerades is the only thing on this list I’m upset about. Way better than Gatorade and you can buy the big ones in most stores for under a dollar. Ugh.
I only drink the purest of Mountain Dews
Damn I love the Simply juices, and smoothies. Oh well I can make my own!!
I think I've missed something, why are we boycotting?
Damn the only thing on there I buy regularly is powerade because it is 20 cents cheapter than gatorade and tastes roughly the same. I used to drank smart water, but I can only drank so much water before I get tired of dranking it.
Well, that'll be easy. I've never bought any of those brands anyway.
I can live without all of those products
Huge boycott.
Although, don't know what the third one int he top row is. Will avoid that too.
Never even knew that was a thing. Bigly avoided.
All of that is poison, and shouldn't have needed a boycott to avoid.
Can I still buy the Mexican coke? 😎
Has Pepsico perpetuated anti-white BS? They sell competing brands to many of these.
Probably. Most of the big corps are pretty racist
They retweeted a thing about George Floyd and donated to a cause that eventually trickled some money towards BLM. But both of those things seemed like un-woke normie stuff. It's not like they have a pro-BLM post on twitter (as of right now) or force their employees to take racist hate indoctrination classes (that we know of).

Fuck man I'm so white I glow in the day.
It’s all shit food that’s responsible for the decline in intelligence, health and prosperity. Especially in poor areas. Food desserts.
Easiest brand to boycott would be Ice Dew, since it's a Chinese brand of bottled water.
Dammit. I actually like Sprite and Sprite Zero.
My family used to drink coke but right now we mainly buy off brand but I am happy to realize I don’t purchase and f the other items.
Keep in mind, a lot of off brand products are produced in the same place as the name brands. They just slap a different label on it and sell it for cheaper to reach the frugal/low income market.
Fanta was invented in Nazi Germany.
I'm a big Coke Zero fan and that Gold Peak tea hits you hard when you've been sweating all day. I won't be stocking my fridge with either of them now.
They're all unhealthy anyway, and the waters are overpriced bullshit
Just buy a nice water bottle
As a black man, I will remember I'm too white for all of these including the the 3 Japanese drinks I can't read.
McRacists is missing
Surprised to see Fanta on there, you know, being founded by Hitler and all.
What company is the Georgia logo?
I'd love to boycott but I don't drink soda... had a Dasani once, but it was ass.
non-essential products = non-essential corporation. Stop serving these poisonous products to children, and Coke will be gone in five years. Win Win.
Where’s the list of based products
Usually grab a Diet Coke in the morning before walking into the lab. Not today and never again.
Frustrating because I've preferred Powerade to gatorade
Simply drinks are fucking nasty and so is Powerade
I actually quite like the Simply drinks. But I won't be buying them anymore now.
I need an alternative to sprite
Georgia Coffee is legit as fuck if you ever encounter Asian vending machines. Hopefully Coke gets it's shit together. That stuff was the highlight of a lot of my travels.
Damn. All the other boycotts were easy. I fucking love Coke. But not as much as I love freedom.
