Hmmmm……I have watched with some interest, and more than a
little disgust, as the media and all of the special interest, fringe wack jobs
of the left have celebrated the pending shut down (in approximately six weeks)
of Starbucks in order to subject their employees to mandatory, racial diversity
/ sensitivity training concerning Starbucks treatment of African American
people (aka black people, as I rarely refer to my whitie bretheren as Caucasian
American, or European American).
You know the story, or let me say, you know the story that
the media is spreading….AND THAT MAY BE TRUE…..given the sad state of reportage
in this nation today, the only certainty is that when our media is involved we
will never know the REAL story, or the facts for that matter. But two black males were apparently in a
Starbucks in Philadelphia (that in itself would probably raise eyebrows),
waiting on a friend, who DID eventually show, and declined to order while they
waited. A white female employee (and
yes, you CAN tell by the way she spoke) called the police and reported that the
two males would neither order nor leave.
There are reports that the two men got loud and disruptive,
but I don’t know….technically Starbucks is not a fast food joint and most shit
like that is reserved for fast food joints and Youtube.
Okay…..so that is what we know. And the CEO was “sick to his stomach” when he
hear the recorded call to the police.
And he has decreed “re-education for all”. In an interview I heard this morning, he
borrowed a line from former White House resident Obama by decreeing that this
behavior simply was not who they were.
And he may be right….it didn’t happen at ALL Starbucks stores, so maybe
it is only who they are in THAT Starbucks store in Philadelphia…..we will never
know, because rather than punish the actual offenders, the Starbucks CEO has
decided to punish everyone who works for him.
But look at the back story; Starbucks is a leftist outlet,
just like Ben and Jerry’s and just like CNN.
If it supports traditional America, Starbucks is having none of it. Hell, until recently I thought you had to be
gay to be a barista there (and you may from what I have seen). As such, Starbucks MUST virtue signal….it is
cheap, and they have decided that in the post Constitutional America, it will
be important. Leftists are legendary
racists…..what is good for the left only applies to minorities (and I am not sure
Philadelphia blacks ARE) when it is useful.
Punishing EVERYONE for the behavior of one, well that is as statist as a
Ho Chi Minh re-education camp….it is all in their DNA.
But the rest of that story deserves looking at
also…..forget that the media has ensured that we MIGHT know the whole story,
but we will never KNOW if we know the whole story…..it is agenda driven…..so
you work with the information you have.
As for this not being who Starbucks is…..
……is it?
Starbucks made the papers for refusing to send US Marines
coffee while in Iraq, using the leftist lie of supporting the troops while not
supporting the war, then promptly supporting neither.
Starbucks has made the papers for refusing to serve police
officers.
Starbucks has made the news for baristas spitting in peoples
cups; people with whom they disagree, or who the baristas feel are more rude
than themselves.
Starbucks has shamelessly gotten behind every wedge issue
embraced by the left; every single one….and vocally.
So, is this sort of behavior NOT who Starbucks is? I think most people would think it is EXACTLY
who Starbucks is. Maybe it is who
Starbucks is, and the CEO is too much of a wuss, and rather than change the
culture of the offending store, punishes everyone (they WILL be made to care).
Or…..and this is quite possible; this is who Starbucks is and they want to
cover it up with “training” (telling whities how racist they are). But, given Starbucks history of embracing
everything negative in the American story…..I suspect that this is who
Starbucks is, and they have finally gotten caught; not disrespecting law and
order and policemen, not ignoring the US Marines, but in doing the same to two
black men. Let’s don’t have a civics
class on the value of the military, or the value of the police, screw that
bunch…..let’s cause a scene over a jerkwad employee disrespecting two black
men.
Don’t let Starbucks fool you…..when the re-education is
complete, their coffee will still taste the same, it will still cost too much,
the baristas will still act like they should be in La Cage Aux Folles (didn’t
think I could tie THAT in did you?), their snotty asses will still hate police,
the military and conservatives…….and most likely……they will still hate black
men.
I think “Arabica” may be code for coffee swilling idiot.
