Judging by a quick perusal of the Twitter feed of Andy Katz-Mayfield, one of the founders of Harry’s, that company is ten times more liberal than Gillette/P&G. Examples: a retweet of Obama in support of dreamers, an anti-Second Amendment tweet, support for “Pride” month, and Happy Hannuka wishes with no mention of Christmas. I was going to order from Harry’s but glad I did a little research first. Gillette was probably getting pressure for not being socially conscious like P&G.

Harry’s is all in on the gay agenda.

Dittos on the safety razor. Been using one for three+ years and would never go back to the gimmicks.

I like Feather blades from Japan, IIRC. Get a year’s supply at a time for the cost of a month’s worth of plastic toy razors.

Where do you find a good safety razor (and blades) these days?

I meant to say Gillette was probably under fire for not being as progressive as Harry’s.

I bought a nice vintage safety razor on eBay. I think it cost me $30. Ironically, I just looked and it’s an old Gillette.

I get my blades on Amazon. Their site is wonky tonight for me or I’d copy a url. $23 for 100 blades so about $12 for a year’s worth. They have razors too, but there are plenty of other sources if you don’t like using Bezos.

Ralf Aust - very nice blades, available at multiple online sites in the US, and here's the Aust website.

I use a 2003 Norelco Triple Header; have since since 1985. Use Bic Blades to cut sideburns. Screw Gillette & Harry’s.

You can always go electric with Norelco. I did that when my honey bought me one a few years ago.

We have soooo many options when we seek to buy shaving gear.

I was a happy (kinda, as they were always overpriced) Gillette customer since 1966.

All that stops today.

Toodles, Gillette.

They mistake volume for market size.

They think that the large number of angry liberal bullies on Twitter represents a large young market they have to cater to.

They don’t realize that many of these people are only in it for the adrenaline fix. They hate on a scifi franchise and tear it down, but they won’t pay to watch the new movies or buy the new books. They crap on successful companies, but they won’t buy the products ... or don’t have the money to do so.

They’re giving in to the liberal bullies thinking this will save their business. They think the large number of vicious liberal Tweets represent millions of customers they’re mollifying and catering to.

In reality, the SJW crowd is much smaller than they seem ... and they’re a tiny fraction of the moderate market the company just pissed off.

Always used a Trac 2 hellifiknow who even makes them.

Trac 2 is Gillette. These are Personna blades that fit a Trac 2 handle:

Well, Guess what Gillette? I can buy Harry’s for a LOT less money, they work better, and the company doesn’t insult me. So screw off.

Yet at least they still seem to recognize that men are a distinct class! That itself is objectionable to so many liberals.
