hate to be "that asshole" but I'm applying pressure everywhere and at all levels... having a kids birthday party today.. changed restaurant reservations for the pizza party part of it bc the original restaurant serves Coke products... new reservations at a restaurant that serves Pepsi products... I hate punishing the "little guy" but every voice counts.. every little drop fills the bucket eventually... I made sure to speak to the manager and offer my apologies and made sure he understood why I would no longer frequent his establishment unless he changed beverage companies. Stand strong, make change happen.
I have done the water for a couple of weeks and I drink like 10-12 of the 500ml bottles. yea I do drink like a total of 4-6 liters of liquid a day. Always thirsty it sucks.
Letters and emails are useless. Your wallet is not. Stop buying their products. Spread THAT word around and let them stew in their own virtue signaling. Gillette did this with that "best a man can be" 2 years ago. Their conservative, mostly male base, boycotted all Proctor & Gamble products and switched products (myself includes) to competitors, and it cost them $5B in profit in a year. I never wrote on email. And it seems to suck to give up brands you like at first but it's really no big deal. Now I pride myself on checking for P&G on everything I buy, and will do the same with Coke now.
The missus dropped Gillette as well and we went to Dollar Shave Club for a while. Then I found out that DSC was giving money to BLM so we moved to Harry's, which for all that I could find the only charity they were donating too were for veterans and male suicide prevention.
Bravo JOD ... I did the exact thing also and will continue to do so...
was in a big box looking for drills for my shop and thought dewalt was a good choice, flipped the package and bam ...chyna made, no dewalt for me !
What was wrong with the "best a man can get" campaign? Stupid men in the adverts, or what? Don't have strong brand feelings, but I never heard about that campaign. Thanks.
It was two things. The first and biggest was the "toxic masculinity" commercial that looks like a Lifetime-original movie where 5 out of 4 men are rapists. Also it was noticeable that only black men were portrayed positively at all in that commercial.
The second was a print ad a few weeks later that didn't get as much media attention but it offended a lot of women as the ad glorified obesity with one of those "plus sized" models who looks like she's one bacon cheeseburger away from a coronary. I'm sure some of the "body positivity" feminist whales loved it but a lot of normal women are just as put off by this "real women are fat" thing as the old complaints of the hard to obtain Barbie doll physique.
That is the "Contact Us" link in there website. They are no longer accepting customer service emails or they've been so overwhelmed with responses the server crashed.
Sodastream is even more expensive, especially as they use proprietary CO2 cartridges. There used to be a competitor who used standard ones you could get from anywhere but they got bought out and then shut down.
If you're reply to this thread is ... muh, water ... then you've totally missed the point. This site has had senators and congressman asking Americans not to call anymore BECAUSE we put the squeeze on them. Who gives flipping cluck if water is better for your body than soda or you're better than the soda drinkers so you don't use their product anyway. The point is to be the "Digital Soldier" you claim to be and leave them a ...
Suck my white balls
email because they attacked America when they did this and this is how we strike back. Make the idiot checking the emails and voicemails cringe, tie there phone lines up, put a dent in their US business (they'll notice, the others did). Do whatever you can to make it known you're not a fan
I didn't see any politicians saying we could stop and even if they did we should keep going as those are probably just the ones in their pocket saying it. Like the whole GME thing, if the short squeeze really was over they wouldn't keep sending shills to Reddit and posting MSM articles trying to convince people to sell their shares at a loss and move on to something else.
When the enemy responds to pressure it means you need to keep putting it on, don't stop until they're over the damn cliff.
They sort of blamed it on LinkedIn ... As I recall they kept repeting how it was part of LinkedIn's InLearing (I think) training curriculum. Like, "LinkedIn offers it so it ain't our fault" but with a lot more word salad.
Yup. And the mere fact that it was on LinkedIn at all was enough for me to terminate my LinkedIn account and tell them why. I didn’t get much value out of it anyway.
The counter to BLM has to be “racist to other races” fight fire with fire. They can’t argue because it’s the truth. Ask questions until the hypocrisy is exposed.
Keep it up guys, overseas cant help that much in this battle unfortunately. Coke is a madhouse, their corporate structure is a nightmare globally to navigate and this training may or may not apply outside the USA...

Pepsi sucks too
I agree.. all soda sucks.. but it's a once a year party so I indulge on that day.
I'm that dude too. Usually about once or twice a year I end up somewhere soda is the only option and indulge in a can or two.
Gave up sodapop for good 2 years ago and haven't missed it. Used to drink 6 cans or 6 bottles a day.
No pop, no chocolate, no coffee, no candy, no cigatrettes (never got into it), and no CHEWING GUM (or anything else with artificial sweeteners).
It was tough for 2 months and it's been a breeze since.
I drink like 3-4 liters of pepsi a day....its the diet one....yea I know its bad for ya....but I am always thirsty so bite me.
Diabetes
Kek!
Live a beetus, die a beetus.
Why is Diet Pepsi salty? To make you drink more.
Love?
When I kicked pop, water didn't change for me and I also ended up drinking far more water than humans should to feel satiated and refreshed.
I have done the water for a couple of weeks and I drink like 10-12 of the 500ml bottles. yea I do drink like a total of 4-6 liters of liquid a day. Always thirsty it sucks.
The soda is what's making you thirsty. That is way too much to drink in a week, let alone a day!
The diet cola MAKES you thirsty. Serious.
if i drink water, I am still thirsty. I am always thirsty.
wow dude, that's ridiculous and disgusting.
Pepsi us even worse. They’re globalists thru and thru
Still the point must be made at all sugary costs
Virtual High-five
They all suck but we as a world can destroy Coke as a brand first. They are number 1 after all. Then move onto the next.
Love it! Great idea.

What do Coca Cola and Gillette (owned by Proctor and Gamble) have in common?
Warren Buffett (Bill Gates' BFF) is a major stockholder in both, and he has "his people" inserted on the boards of directors.
Interesting that he sold his entire position in Pfizer, one of the "vaccine" companies, just last week.
Hmm ...

IMO, Buffett is not what he appears to be, and is no different in mindset from Bill Gates. That's why they are BFF's.
I did not know this. Thanks!

Same here. I've had to switch up tool brands. That hurt more than the P&G stuff, lol. ??

"Best a man can BE" was their approach, designed by a radical feminist, thay pointed out alpha male toxicity.
Think you may have just had a fluke, I found their contact info without issue, however, their automated system said they were closed.
I hope to see people protesting their local coke distribution centers over this one...

I emailed them and told them to "suck my white balls".

Submitted mine!
OMG...we tilted their contact us page.
Tilted: to end play...common word used in video games back in the arcade days...I totally just dated myself.
The ceo of coca cola is a white man curious what he is doing to be "less white"
Out of the loop. What did coke do?
https://greatawakening.win/p/12hReKK0oz/try-to-be-less-white--/c/
Thanks man! Such fascists!
They are training their staff to be less white
That’s such bullshit. There’s a war against white people going on.
I second your question.
They decided to put there employees through training on how to "be less white"
And most importantly, responded with a non-answer when questioned.
They sort of blamed it on LinkedIn ... As I recall they kept repeting how it was part of LinkedIn's InLearing (I think) training curriculum. Like, "LinkedIn offers it so it ain't our fault" but with a lot more word salad.
Yup. And the mere fact that it was on LinkedIn at all was enough for me to terminate my LinkedIn account and tell them why. I didn’t get much value out of it anyway.
And PSA, Coke sells more than soda. Minute Maid juices is actually Coke pretending to be more healthy.
I am usually a pepsi guy, but I will drink coke products......wait ..... I USED to drink coke products sometimes.
I just left them a message. Screw those racist jerks!
What happen with Coke?
Edit: holy fuck, try to be less white training? Is that actually real? Can any coke employee confirm?
The counter to BLM has to be “racist to other races” fight fire with fire. They can’t argue because it’s the truth. Ask questions until the hypocrisy is exposed.
Quit buying their poison...
Coca-Cola? What did I miss?
Keep it up guys, overseas cant help that much in this battle unfortunately. Coke is a madhouse, their corporate structure is a nightmare globally to navigate and this training may or may not apply outside the USA...
What happened?
They never learn.
white people can't drink coca cola, because it is racist for them to do so. pass it on XD
already switched drinks
