Title: Coca Cola gets woke.
Post by: RoadKingLarry on February 23, 2021, 01:12:35 PM: This *expletive deleted*it is getting beyond stupid.
"Try to be less white" WTF. If they said, try to be less black or brown they'd have a hundred lawsuits and riots before they could take the next breath.

Oh, well.

They are targeting people based on race. I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be illegal.

Post by: 230RN on February 25, 2021, 01:49:12 PM: Certainly not blue in the political sense. Perish the thought.

I also use that line when the subject of tattoos comes up. "I don't need tattoos. I have varicose veins."
