Whenever a company makes their whole image about something that has nothing to do with their actual business model, I immediately doubt the quality of their product or service. Especially if that image comes with an overtly political agenda. If their thing is something I like or care about, I’ll consider the possibility that their quality might, maybe, be decent, but this particular company is one where I intend to let my assumption stand untested.

why the hell does a coffee company want to align itself with firearm users? There are so many different coffee-consuming customer bases they could pander to, and they want to go for the 'aard maan crowd

Same, they’re just pandering to a guaranteed base instead of actually bettering their product

When virtue signaling is your advertising, you don’t have to think real hard.

There’s a MAGAt brand for a lot of things. It’s one of the ways you know the whole damn thing is a grift.

I said to my kids the first time Trump was voted in that there is the market of suckers that will but any garbage so long as you Mega market it. My kids are good people so didn’t take advantage of that but we have seen so, so many businesses that have popped up, not just Trump family stuff, to take advantage. Sometimes I wish I wasn’t moral and ethical. The grift is so easy against 25% of the population in (every?) country.

That and the very obvious, extremely transparent fucking astronomical grift happening before our eyes.

Feels before reals. They buy it bacase “Black Rifle”. It could taste like shit. They pour a cup and, “This stuff tastes like shit lol.” and they’d keep buying it because Black Rifle pisses off the libs, it has a gun on it, and the makers are making the brainwashed snowflakes feel manly for having Manly Gun Label Coffee.
