Starbucks sent an internal memo banning employees from wearing any Black Lives Matter shirts or pins because it violates their policy against advocating for a “political, religious or personal issue” at work.
On June 1, the coffee retailer vowed on Twitter to “stand in solidarity with our Black partners, customers, and communities.” A few days later, it tweeted, and then pinned, a more in-depth commitment to supporting Black Lives Matter and confronting bias and racism and to “being a part of change.”
However, it didn’t include allowing the company’s baristas and other employees to wear T-shirts, pins, or any other accessory that mentions Black Lives Matter.
That is not going over well. To give you an idea, #BoycottStarbucks is trending on Twitter. Will Starbucks apologize any moment now?
Okay!
I will be boycotting @Starbucks until they reverse this racist policy.

starbucks is already experiencing a 45% sales drop + they're closing 400 u.s locations permanently. if we boycott now, we're for sure going to get their attention. @Starbucks banning BLM merch but saying "we are committed to being a part of change"? explain.— django 🧸 (@djanguh) June 11, 2020
The problem for them is they push the LGBTQ pins.
Guess I won’t be buying anything from @Starbucks since they don’t support us. But will force their employees to wear LGBTQ pins. How you support equality for only some groups and not all? #BoycottStarbucks

BLM isn’t what you think it is.
Bill O’Reilly explains who the Black Lives Matter actually are, which is a heavily-Soros-funded, white leftist-generated organization:
BLM = Burn Loot Murder
In other news, tips have gone up substantially at Starbucks.
53: I don’t really like the taste of coffee, so in the past, I’d order a double-matcha-mocha-macchiato-latte-cappuccino expression fusion Grande with a shot of caramel and a swirl of organic soymilk. Sometimes I’d sprinkle cinnamon on top. THAT would run over six bucks. But I once got arrested for being ‘high’ after drinking that, so I don’t go there anymore.… Read more »
Thanks for this good news story. Starbucks can’t collapse fast enough.
Thanks! I wondered why I never go there. Now I know! AND also that I don’t pay $6-8 for a cup of coffee, EVER.
The price for coffee at Starbucks starts out under $3.00, I know because I go there. At least know what you are talking about if you comment.
I’ve never stepped inside a Starbucks after I found out that Gates family are shareholders. Not only they destroy black people’s life in Africa with vaccines but worldwide as well and not only black people’s life. Starbucks sells their chock full of pesticides and herbicides coffee and other animal products full of poisons and hormones. Monsanto is their company as… Read more »
I haven’t visited Starbucks since they started supporting an unlimited number of sexes.
