To think that political activism could take such a form. Then there's Uber for the right and Lyft for the left even though both companies have all the same degenerate behaviors in practice.
I guess I'm a crank, but this kind of consumerist politics rubs me the wrong way. What was Bernie Sanders if not the Fair Trade/Shade Grown presidential candidate? Look where that got us?
Good point. In fact, I'm pretty sure Starbucks as a company is already on life support owing to that stinging boycott started by the religious right over the holiday cup design last Christmas.
Next time you are in LA or anywhere that has one you have to get the Ice Blended at The Coffee Bean. Hands down the best coffee shake in the planet. Coffee Bean has a great tea selection, just OK coffee, but their version of the Frap has no peer.
I've been on a permanent Starbucks boycott for years because I really hate the overpriced slop that Starbuck's sells. Never mind Schultz and the Sonics, it's the sludge that Starbucks says is coffee that I find truly offensive.
Go ahead and lap up your second-rate frappucino (one can get much better coffee slush drinks elsewhere). My permanent boycott will continue unabated.
