Ben and Jerry’s Go Woke

So, it seems that Ben and Jerry’s think that we should be welcoming invaders with open arms.

I’m with Julia Hartley-Brewer here – fuck Ben and Jerry’s and I’ll add them to the list alongside Gillette as a business that doesn’t need my money. Of course, these wokerati aren’t offering to pay fro them themselves, they never do. The fatuous hypocrites expect the taxpayer to pick up the bill.

I’m not sure at what point these businesses thought that it was their place to do anything other than sell us stuff or to lecture us about how we should behave and think. Either way, they can stick it where the sun don’t shine. I don’t take instructions from ice cream salesmen.

  1. Asda’s ice cream is really good so I would be unlikely to buy Ben and Jerry’s anyway. When it comes to boycotting companies that think it is their job to push woke politics, they all seem to be at it these days. Why they can’t just concentrate on their core business and just STFU about everything else I don’t know.

  2. I wonder when Ben & Jerry will let us know their views on quantum computing, CRISP-Cas9, the likely trajectory of AI and the best configuration of reusable rockets for low Earth orbit. Really, it’s no more ludicrous than hearing them spout off about this shit. Never trust a hippy.

      • “(W)e are all waiting for a statement from Mr Whippy.”

        I’m surprised that the BDSM community is considering making statements of any sort. But there y’go. You live and learn, I suppose. >};o)

    • Julia, do you have a big freezer full of it like that ‘woman of the people’ Nancy Pelosi?

      For choice of flavour you can’t beat Howard Johnsons ice cream.

  3. B&J sold out in 2000.
    Unilever now owns the business.
    Hope that B&J’s sales plummet just so that Unilever understands that they should just stick to business.

    • Wasn’t Unilever that highly principled company which said it would leave the UK if we voted for Brexit – and since then, it’s firmed up Britain and its HQ for the whole of Europe?
      Ice cream man speaks with forked tongue, I suggest.

  4. Of course it’s ridiculous but here’s a question. Do the people who post this stuff on behalf of B and J or Yorkshire Tea or whoever post it because they believe their woke message or on the basis of a cynical business calculation that they will attract more sales by posting it rather than fewer? I have no idea; further, both reasons are depressing and I’m not sure which is worse.

  5. Sadly I haven’t eaten ice cream since childhood so will be unable to boycott B&J but Unilever ?
    Goes to examine kitchen and bathroom cleansing products that might be coming up for replacement.

  6. My granddaughter was devastated yesterday when I told her about Tom and Jerrys comedy act. Sadly for her she would still buy it but she doesn’t have the funds. It’s bloody expensive for a small tub of ice cream and I resented paying for it. This is yet another saving I’m making. Pretty soon I’ll be able to have some spare cash for something nice..
