Pro-Black Lives Matter Corporations are Using Modern Day Slave Labor

Coca-Cola would like you to know that it cares about oppression and believes America is evil.

In a rambling statement by CEO James Quincey, titled, "Where We Stand on Social Justice", the head of the obesity conglomerate declared that he is, "outraged, sad, frustrated, angry."

It’s hard that out there for a guy in a racist country who is only making an $18 million salary.

The Coke CEO then pledged to give money to the social justice usual suspects and the company joined a boycott of Facebook to pressure it into censoring Trump and conservatives.

"Companies like ours must speak up as allies to the Black Lives Matter movement," Quincey ranted. "I’ve been reflecting on our duty to Black people in America. Simply put, America hasn’t made enough progress, corporate America hasn’t made enough progress and nor has The Coca-Cola Company."

While Coca-Cola pounds the Black Lives Matter pulpit, it’s got a present-day slavery problem.

Somewhat of a conundrum when you think about the difference in lifestyles of American laborers and those of other countries; racism or social justice has nothing to do with wages. As a matter of fact, social justice provides no justice at all...it is a kumbaya phrase meant to calm you...if you need God, pray to him. Racism and slavery in the same speech mean only one thing...politics.

Not a problem, the slaves aren’t black, they’re Asian so it doesn’t count.

With globalization today, we are all slave holders, terrorist, blood diamond exploiters, rain forest killers, ocean destroyers, air poisoners, baby seal clubbing, sexual exploiters, etc., etc.

Unless-— we’re only responsible for our own actions. I don’t believe in collective guilt, but I do believe in responsible and informed management. Coke and most other multinational corporations fail on both counts.

Oligarchs rule!

Most of Americans are slaves. No free speech, if one does not agree with so called mainline positions one is a racist or worse.

Most store brands are just name brands repackaged. Might have a slight different taste. There are only so many places that make products. Bread especially is all made by the same place, just to different ingredients and wrapper.

According to a certain family member who is so much more super righteous than anyone has ever been, actual slavery is irrelevant.

Congress can hold them accountable.

This is an opportunity.

I met a lady who worked at a turkey farm.

They raised them all together and then when the orders came in, just put them in the required packages.

No difference, it’s Coke under a different label.
