Let’s start with Ben & Jerry’s headquarters, any property that Unilever owns in the U.S., any/all properties of the two former owners and Bernie Sanders.
Turn all of it over to whatever Indian tribes they think are the rightful owners of the land.
Start there. Set an example.
Can you prove that by reference to the Torah or a religious text?
Bingo! Although all the hippies dressed up like indians at Woodstock, too many hippy azhos have no clue about history. If the white eyes hadn’t stepped in, the indian tribes would have wiped each other out. Read a history book!
Sure. I’ll be back.
it’s krap ice cream anyway, full of artificial ingredients and artificial thickeners to compensate for insufficient cream content ... always has been this way, even before unilever ...
everyone be sure to read your ice cream labels to see what you’re actually buying ... compare to Häagen-Dazs 5-ingredient ice cream ... if one is going to consume empty calories, they might as well be the best ...
I have heard it this way
we are equal but some are more equal than others
Never more true than mow
And they're rubbing the people's collective face in it.
I have not eaten their ice cream for almost 40 years. Plenty of good, non-hippie ice out there.
I’ve been boycotting Ben and Jerry for over 30 years, along with Gillette and a list of other companies, and yet, my life doesn’t seem to be missing anything. Coke, Bud Light, Jim Beam...they can all jump on board. I wake up every day with a clear conscience and proud to be an American.
The bud light of ice cream.
I’ve been boycotting Ben & Jerry’s since the 1980s. They’ve always been sanctimonious, hypocritical liberals.
It would be interesting to see how far Americans would go to defend Mount Rushmore from an attack by a sovereign, anti-American nation.
“For as long as I can remember, Ben & Jerry’s “brand” has been hippie leftism. As such, I’ve long avoided their frozen, sugary concoctions. Conversely, I’d imagine that most of their customers are on board with or indifferent to B and J’s brand of hate-America leftism. So this stunt likely won’t hurt them.”
Totally agree!
What is the day reserved for recognizing that England was built on land stolen by Anglo-Saxons, Normans, and Danes from the original British (Celtic) inhabitants? Can we commit the English to giving it back to the Welsh, Scots, Irish, and Cornish indigenous peoples?
Indigenous land where nobody had
Houses medicine ships the wheel .............................
It was just a matter of time before they died off like so many tribes have around the world have if it were not for the Europeans.
“… the ships of Zheng Ho would have gotten to California…”
Zheng would probably just passed California by. His fleet was based on the idea of trade and forcing smaller recalcitrant kingdoms to recognize China as their overlords if they refused to provide tribute to the emperor. Since the natives of California had literally nothing of interest to the Chinese, the Chinese would have continued south, likely becoming the Conquistadors of the Aztecs and Inca. Those civilizations at least had trade goods and gold.
This is a leftist extremist movement throughout the country. The leftist extremist on our town selectmen board is trying to insist that before all town meetings and board meetings that there are words said to “acknowledge that our town sits on stolen aboriginal land.
I hate the way the country is heading
The race would have been "on" between the Chinese and the Muslims for the conquest of the New World. My money would have been on the Muslims; unlike the Chinese, they had an imperative to go out and convert the heathen to Islam. Also, they were pretty good seafarers.
The Chinese, OTOH, thought -- with some justification -- that everyone else was some flavor of barbarian, and every other culture was completely inferior to theirs. There was some interest in trade, but only very limited interest in any kind of conquest or colonization.
(Note that NW Australia is far closer to China than to anywhere in Europe or North America, but the Chinese probably never got there and certainly didn't colonize.)
Lead by example. B&J should first return the land their businesses are on and then preach to the rest of us.
Sealtest. Haven’t heard that name in ages. Looked it up. Here’s the rest of the story, now:
“The Sealtest brand was ultimately acquired from Kraft (along with Breyers) in 1993 by Unilever, which retains the underlying rights to the brand.[1][2] Sealtest milk products are currently produced and packaged by Milkco, Inc. of Asheville, North Carolina, a subsidiary of Ingles.[3] The brand name is licensed from the Good Humor-Breyers subsidiary of Unilever. All Sealtest ice cream products have been discontinued.[4]
Sealtest also sponsored an ice cream store at the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World in Florida named Sealtest Ice Cream Parlor and Sealtest Ice Cream Wagon.[5]”
