AOC is one dumb bunny.
One’s an actress- the other one is AOC!
This IS the result of the DemoCRAPS demanding to have there way and the American Citizens telling them to go F. Off! The likes of these pieces of human defecation like Schumer, Pelosi, AOC, etc. demand that we become their sheep and follow their demands are over. While this has been true for many of us Conservatives. It has now crossed over to others who are seeing these Liberal Leftists for what they really are, a bunch of lying @$$holes, trying to gain complete power and control of the government to destroy our Constitutional Republic and turn our Republic into a socialist, communist hellhole with them in charge.
Great job AOCastro.
Hopefully the other CEO’s will take a lesson from this episode and grow a damned spine.
Castro should be mourning his stepmother’s Covid death instead of running his stupid mouth.
Castro Is from San Antonio. I would wager HEB stocks more Goys products than any other food chain in America. Incredibly stupid move. Good.
“Boycotts against large companies or institutions rarely work. Look at when Evangelicals tried for years to boycott Disney, for example, and nobody even noticed.”
Well, the trick is, for a boycott to work, the people who are pissed need to be a key part of that company’s target demographic. Older evangelicals are not really Disney’s niche.
On the other hand, when Gillette pissed off men, who ARE Gillette’s main demographic, they did feed the pain from that boycott.
Poor AOC, she’s probably crying and throwing a tantrum screaming “But I’m supposed to be important, don’t they know who I am?”
We had a discussion on this when it was happening and Gillete's sales or stock didn't do any worse than other major razor blade manufacturers such as Wilkinson. Their problems came from a change in style where beards became more fashionable. Boycotts had little to nothing to do with it.
Gillette is small part of P&G. There is no way to determine the direct impact on Gillette sales unless the company mentions it in a financial disclosure. Apparently they choose not to.
Gilette did mention why sales were slumping at the time and they blamed changing demographics and tastes. That is why we looked up Wilkinson's performance to see if they were having the same problems and they were. You could probably find the original discussion with a search if you're interested.
