Twitter users apparently now going after Black Rifle Coffee Company

[eldirector]

Beyond Black going into the pot right now. I've been getting 2 bags every 3 weeks for a while now, and let them pick (the "Best Of" choice when you set up delivery). It was a treat from my wife, to keep me off of soda. It's working.

Checked in here to make sure I wasn't supposed to boycott someone. Guess we are still on the BRCC bandwagon? I'm so confused...(purple if needed. If not, carry on).

How do we cancel the cancel culture?

You can't, our brains are all fried from social media. Echo chambers and the "block" button mindset has leached into real life.

NSFW (dirty words and adult themes)

Of course, helps if you are comedy royalty.

I don't believe BRCC is anything but Pro 2nd Amendment. I assume (I could be wrong here too) that they are donating just to sort of pay to play in their local political market or simply supporting Democrat candidates that will legislate from the middle. Not all Democrats are bad, there are a lot that actually legislate from the middle instead of the extremes. If I was in a Primarily (assumption here too) blue district, I might donate to the moderate democrat to avoid the extreme one .

Does this actually happen? When was the last time that democrat backed federal legislation was blocked because a democrat voted against it?

i cancelled my sub. Play in the middle of the road, get your ass run over.

They are getting hammered on ARFCOM, looks like they turned off reviews on FB, couldn’t find them on IG.

I don't think Harry Reid would ever commit to voting against some of it. But yes, I know there are some moderate democrats.

You can't honestly believe of all the 230 democrats in the house that every single one of them wants to disarm you.

Be nice if people didn't have to make EVERY. ****ING. THING. political. It's coffee.

Yep. And I'd prefer people did it the way he did it. On his personal time, with his personal money, without making a speech and saying this is our stance as a company (like Starbucks, etc).

I think people just like to be pissed off at something. I understand why they said they didn't endorse or have an agreement with the kid. They're trying to stay out of it and also make sure people know they're not taking advantage of the situation to try and profit from it. Oh well, can't please everyone.

Cancel culture isn't just for the left.

There’s more to socialism than disarmament.
The proof is in the pudding, democrats vote with democrats. The only time you see them voting against the party is when it doesn’t matter, when it doesn’t affect the outcome of a particular vote. This allows them to continue the myth of the moderate democrat. It’s why we have ObamaCare, they’re in lock-step.

And, yeah, if their vote was needed to push through gun control, I have no doubt that every single democrat would toe the party line.

I’m referring to the federal level, I can see that we potentially have moderates at the state/local level.

I think most politicians just want to stay in power. They'll play by whichever rules they need to in order to get re-elected. I think if you were a Dem in a VERY Pro-Gun area, and were getting donations from the NRA, you'd likely either vote no, or just vote present on those issues. Both of which would be better than a Yes vote. I think a lot more people vote present so they don't have to choose a side when it comes between their party and their money.

Yeah, I agree. They want to stay in power, which means they don’t want to lose a primary. Which means they will toe the line.

I just don’t think the Present and No votes are being cast when it really matters.

I could be wrong, of course. It is why I asked the question.

Yes, actually I can. After watching them vote absolutely in lockstep to impeach Trump on the sketchiest of pretexts, I strongly suspect there isn't a conscience among them. At best, the 'moderates' might believe in disarming me more slowly/incrementally

 

[Ggreen]

They didn't denounce Kyle, they said they are not sponsoring or donating to him, meanwhile their ceo has public donations to very liberal pac's. Their coffee is terrible without any politics. Hubbard and Cravens please

Preach. I'm still gonna order coffee from them regardless.

 

[BR8818]

I'd rather give money to company that stands up for the things I believe in, or is atleast neutral and doesn't cave in to the slightest pressure from the left. Especially a company that models their brand for "conservative" or "right leaning" people then does the opposite.

Good for you both. I mean sure, they're no Dicks. Or can we be selective about where we want to spend money?
