Starbucks sponsors Republican National Convention - Lemmy.World

For those who didn’t know

Is that because they mostly make money from democrats but in some specific places it’s more profitable to pay republicans instead?
It’s probably because they’re mostly making money in cities and cities are mostly run by Democrats. I don’t think they give a fuck who their customers prefer.
It’s common for big corps to donate to both parties, so they get some influence either way. Maybe they think the Democrats are more likely to win, or it’s counting donations for previous elections.
It’s more profitable to them to sell their coffee to Democrats while being taxed by Republicans
It costs less to get a Republican to oppose unions.
Pepsi owns SoBe? Is that the reason why it comes in those shitty plastic bottles now? The glass ones were perfect for turning them into waterfall bongs. All you had to do was just tap the indent with a hammer and nail, and it would form a perfect little hole. Miss doing that in my 20s when I was too broke to buy a proper pipe.
