Boycott Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream.

Postby Randygmn on Sat Sep 22, 2018 6:14 pm

In case you’ve been living in a cave and weren’t already aware that the owners of Ben & Jerry’s are far left radicals, here’s a heads up. They are naming ice cream in honor of democrats in an effort to take back Congress in November. Of course, it’s fine if they want to pursue a leftist agenda. But be aware that money spent on their products should be considered to be directly funding their political goals. This is different than not spending money with companies because their policies stink or the owners do, too. (Or boycotting a celebrity because they just suck) Here, it’s their profits that are being transformed into political activism.
Now- if they were being genuine, they’d instead be giving away their products and company profits to redistribute some of their massive wealth.

Ben and Jerry have been left wing pinko commies - save for their own wealth enhancement - since day one.
They once tried to instigate a boycott of local competitor Haggen-Daz(sp?). It failed miserably.
it doesn't take much to ignore B&J, anyway. I think most of their concoctions are silly.
I mean when you all ready got chocolate/ peanut butter, spumoni, and peppermint bonbon...what more do you need?

Chocolate/peanut butter is all I need and all I’ll ever want in the US. If I’m in Italy then many flavors of gelato are amazing.

Most of the time, I can be perfectly content in terms of ice cream with what's available from other ice cream vendors, but that doesn't mean that I'm likely to ever forget that Half Baked (vanilla and chocolate with both cookie dough and chunks of brownies in it) is delicious. So, need? No. Want? Definitely yes, at least some of the time.

Blue Bunny is pretty good and usually cheaper. Ben & Jerry were BIG donators to Obama.

I think unilever bought Ben and Jerry’s about 20 years ago. They won’t be sending much of anything to Democrat candidates without and equal contribution to republicans.

Holy ****. I don’t normally eat ice cream but you guys ranting about cherry garcia inspired me to buy a pint. That is pretty amazing stuff. I ate half the pint and threw the rest away. I don’t need those kind of calories in my life.

So a thread targeted on getting you to NOT buy the brand inspired you to buy the brand? :hmm: I think we have some posters here who need to change their careers to marketing.
