Let's all do our Part, no Coke a Cola product, or any of their subsidiaries. Being White is all about drinking Coke a Cola after all.

So Piss Off COKE!!!!




My Kids love Water, we bought 2, 2 Liter Coke's today, because they want to do the Memento's experiment.
I think I'll make a Fuck Coke video out of it, when we Do. It will be the last Coke products I ever buy in my life time.

Berkey Water Filter. Love it. Get Stainless Steel bottles.

The BPA rots your precious bodily fluids.

just boil the damned thing and there is no need to store it


I'd do a simple distillation. Gets the dirt out as well. Lots of sediment gets stirred up when the water pumps go off/on.

They own ~500 different brands, making them tough to avoid.


Usually there is an 'Coca cola subsidiary' or some such printed on the product though. Yeah, I'm done with coke. Even though my brother in law works for them.

Since I am not a Clownifornia transplant, my pipes did not freeze - it is quite easy to take care of them. And we have nat gas stove, which means heat is there.

Eddie Muster, er I mean John Kerry (according my my parental units in TX) crawled out of his hole today to blame fossil fuels and said they will wean TX off of them in just 9 years.

Maybe get a regular fireplace too and some wood.

I had a water heater go out in one of my rental units. It wouldn't turn back on when the power came back on because it's has one of those new gay ass piezo starters.

Because I'm not an asshole landlord like apparently all are in CA I went over there in the snow and tried to fix it on Wednesday. I couldn't but got a plumber out there yesterday/Saturday (long line) and it turns out there is an air filter that was clogged so it wouldn't start back up.

So it's 'fixed' but it has a leak so I'm replacing the entire unit on Wednesday.

Other than that no problems. I know a lot of peeps in San Antonio with broken pipes, one is my dad's former business partner - her entire house was flooded.

Jesus. There should be simple courses required for life. You're better off wasting a bunch of water with a drip or learn how to winterize your pipes. Pissing away $300 of water is better than $10k in damage that the insurance company will fight like hell not to pay out.

This would be an instance where you don't worry about money and go on the path of least resistance. Also have some sort of god damn gas heater pretty much anywhere in the country. There's a 100% chance that you'll potentially be cold anywhere in the lower 48 if the power goes out. It's a $150 investment if you already have a propane gas grill with a backup tank. Or a camper.

You would be amazed at the number of people who don't know about their water main shutoff.

Coke HR Training instructed mandatory attendees to be "Less White", a clearly racist instruction.

No more ignoring it, no more giving it a pass. Slap back.

Does Coca-Cola own any beer brands? I don't drink any of the sugary crap but I want to participate in cancelling their ass somehow. =))

If so, why is this thread full of memes and opinions but not any information about the HR training even after teasing this much information out of you? Why isn't proof of the thing the #1 priority? (This is literally one of the plot points in Alice in Wonderland.)

Ok, here's a blogger talking about it with screenshots from the training.

I don't buy Coke (or Sprite) unless it's made in Mexico in the original glass bottle. I boycotted Coke after they started using High Fructose Corn Syrup.

Coke says Stop being White

Ok, let's stop being "White." Instead Whites can be Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Celtic, Slavic, or Nordic. Maybe "Mediterranean" for those Hispano-Italio-Greek types that are sufficiently White and non-greasy.

More and more corporations are requiring their employees to be less white, in an attempt to stop racism forever. But it's hard to know how to do that, since at first blush, that SEEMS really racist and impossible. But it's not. It's actually really easy if you follow these seven simple steps:

1. Burn all your Live, Laugh, Love signs. This is the first step to renouncing whiteness. Find every last "Live, Laugh, Love" sign in your home, every "Too Blessed To Be Stressed" trinket, and every "All I Need Is A Little Bit Of Coffee And A Whole Lot Of Jesus" mug and burn them as you think about your inherently sinful whiteness.

2. Rip off your skin. This is an easy one!

3. Kill yourself. Even easier! For best results, rip off your skin, then kill yourself.

4. Announce that you identify as a person of color. Wait, never mind. This one might be cultural appropriation. You also might be mistaken for a conservative trying to come up with a third joke.

5. Throw out all your ranch dressing. Ranch dressing, mayo -- it's all gotta go.

6. Take dance classes. This is a hard step, but it's worth it. As you learn to dance to a beat, your whiteness will begin to melt away.

7. Hate yourself every waking moment until you have sufficiently atoned for your whiteness. Oops! Spoiler alert: you'll never sufficiently atone for your whiteness. Better go back to step 3.

There you go! Racism ended forever!

When we let the kids have it, that's what they prefer. Not a huge soda drinker but it's what I prefer as well if I'm going to have one. Fortunately we have a few Mexican grocery stores in non-ghetto areas we can grab it from on occasion.

I get it. I will say, though, bottled water is a great way to store water. Just in case you live in, say Texas.


Or you could just store some extra water...

Bottled water is truly a stupidity. There are no requirements on the purity or safety of it. Most bottled water is just filtered water off from a city tap put into bottles.

I'm in the middle of suburbia - if the water was shut off here, I would survive, not so certain about my neighbors though. I could take pool water and make it (safely) drinkable. Boil it to remove the chlorine and kill anything in it, and if you like filter it through sand, and filter it through a drinking water filter - and boil again if you're at all nervous. Drinking water filters don't do much, they just remove minor impurities and chlorine really.

When I was a kid, I used to go with my grandfather to go fishing - we'd take water right out of the lake, boil it, then pour it from one jug to another to aerate it. I remember asking my grandfather why he did this, so he let me taste what non aerated water tasted like. It's awful. It's "flat water".

People in this thread (and elsewhere this is discussed online) convinced this is Coca Cola's corporate policy and secret subversive mission and prepared to boycott them for reasons other than selling nothing other than an unnecessary and unhealthy by manipulating their patriotism.

Yet through it all there's no evidence that this was anything other than a single slide in a presentation made by some third party to some Coca Cola employees.

I seriously don't know why people aren't FUCKING EMBARRASSED at their inability to research claims and stories and the fact that they get unapologetically sucked in by such low grade propaganda and manipulation without ever learning from the last 1000 times they did it.

Nobody is making any presentations to employees w/o management's blessing in any of a giant corporations I worked. It would be naive to think the giant corporation named Coca-Cola is different. The delivery was outsourced but the message is what the management wanted to convey.

I'd research it, however:

https://www.linkedin.com/learning/confronting-racism-with-robin-diangelo

That's the page that is being referred to, and it's been deleted. I checked archive.org - and it was never archived.

So... The company has something to hide, and that's rarely good.

I've found as a good practice - despise corporations and avoid megalithic corporations as much as possible. I live in California, and am constantly amazed that TacoBell exists, when there's a TON of mom and pop shops that actually produce and make actual food, for the same price.

Because HR reads and approves every fucking slide. That’s how it works.

You can't prove this with information currently in your possession. In other words, you made it up out of whole cloth. Credibility and reputation are at stake here.
