But at least the Coke Santa Claus is more pink than white, so I guess he's safe for now.

I bet white Santa goes bye bye from all Coca Cola advertising. There's been a lot of complaints about Santa Claus being white lately.

So with all that said, where did Michael Jackson fit into all of this having spent a lot of dollars on bleaching himself ?? Asking for a friend of course

They have found Ted's replacement

Another company paying to purge the company of their pattern of systemic racism. One problem with that is they do not have a pattern of systemic racism. Another problem is that the people demanding payment are using good old extortion to get the money and conduct their business like organized crime.

Does the company collecting the money have original and exclusive jurisdiction to levy financial penalties and absolve Coca-Cola of their racist sins? Of course not. They are simply.running a high pressure con to extort money. “If you do not pay us, we will proclaim that your company is racist. However when you pay us enough money, we will proclaim your company to be a supporter of wokeness (They are so stupid that they cannot even speak properly. What they mean to say is “social enlightenment”.)

Pepsi paid BLM last summer to prove that they are not racist.

"Systemic racism" in the year 2021 (and, in fact, since the 1960's) is a fictional term. Like you said, a con.

Good post.

There is systemic racism against whites and Asians in the US now beyond any shadow of a doubt.

Reply to my letter:


Scott, Thank you for contacting The Coca-Cola Company,

We appreciate your message. The goal of our diversity training is to help build a better workplace, one that is respectful for all. Recently, we learned that content accessible through our Company training platform did not align with this approach. To be clear, this was not a part of our training curriculum and we immediately removed the links to that content.

We apologize to those who were offended by this content. We would never encourage anyone to be any less of themselves.

As we continue to evolve our training, we know we won’t always get everything right, but we have learned from this experience. In fact, we have taken to heart one very key lesson – the importance of continuing to listen, learn and adapt, as together we work to refresh the world and make a difference.

We will make sure that we are addressing any opportunities for improvement and continue the dialogue to ensure all voices are heard and respected.

The people trying to undo “racism” by removing Dr Seuss and such, are actually the racist. They have spent years telling non-whites, that being so, they cannot achieve. They have now gotten ridiculous and have learned that they can achieve a greater separation by removing history and blaming non-whites. Non-whites couldn’t care less about dr Seuss and Reese’s switching to white chocolate.

Watching tv will cause you to hate people. Turn it off and go mingle in person. People are generally good.

Bottling plants are expensive to build and operate... You'd be surprised which companies bottle which brands in their respective facilities.

Kind of like motor oil. Everybody has their own particular recipe concerning additives... But it all gets bottled in the same facility... On Monday they run Pennzoil, Tuesday is Castrol, Wednesday is Quaker State, etc...

Who is Les White? Never met the guy. What if he is a jerk? What if there really is a Les White and he's black?
