StarBUCKS. Obviously a dog whistle to a derogatory racist term.

Yup. This social justice crap that companies peddle these days makes me sick.

Blacks are smarter then white progressives. Who pays 6 bucks plus for a cup of coffee?

Who pays $300 for a pair of tennis shoes ?

It is like the white kid is not enough to be saved in the movie.
In “Knowing”, the white guy gets to save his son, who is deaf. In “Take Shelter”, he tries to save his white daughter, also deaf. They had to make the white kid disabled to maintain sympathy.

Besides being material for endless jokes, this is just a dumb idea. So, the Barista and a customer are in a long-winded conversation about race and everything comes to a standstill. Service slows to a snail’s pace and the customers seek their overpriced coffee elsewhere.

Contentious conversations on any subject and the smooth operation of a business just don’t got together.

Maybe the hands are brown or white depending on what people see in the photo - like the blue dress vs. the white dress.

I have a problem carrying on a serious conversation with someone who has enough steel on their facep to start a new car company.

Everything is a symbol in this country. Nothing is just what it is and no more.

But...it’s so urban, cool, & hip to pay six bucks for a cup of burned s***.

As an OFWG who voted for Reagan, I’ve never been in a Starbucks. The “barista” - is that a waitress you can banter with & not hold up service for others, or is it the cashier lecturing you about race while the line behind you grows longer & angrier?

I have never been in a Starbucks either. Yes, I can't imagine people are going to like this idea at all. Most especially before they have had their coffee.
