What the fuk are you talking about? Refuse to cater to us? Preemptive boycott?? And you have the nerve to type your nonsensical bullshyt in all caps.
WHEN YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH A COMPANY YOU GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO FIX IT BEFORE YOU BOYCOTT. IF YOU BOYCOTT FROM JUMP THE COMPANY HAS NO INCENTIVE TO FIX IT. YOU'LL PROBABLY GET THE OPPOSITE REPONSE.
IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL BECAUSE IT'S STARBUCKS. IMAGINE IT BEING A FEW FAST FOOD CHAINS. THEY DECIDE TO ABANDON THE AFRICAN AMERICAN DEMOGRAPHIC. FIRST THING THAT HAPPENS IS ADS ARE PULLED FROM RADIO AND TV IN THE TARGET AREAS. THEN THEY START IDLING STORES TO PREPARE FOR DECOMMISSIONING. MINOR TO AVERAGE INCONVENIENCE FOR BLACK PEOPLE. THE PROBLEM COMES WHEN EARNINGS REPORTS COME OUT. IF THEY MANAGE TO STILL TURN A PROFIT YOU CAN KISS ALL RESTAURANT CHAINS IN THE INNER CITIES GOODBYE. FRANCHISES ARE NOT GOING TO SET UP WITH NO AD SUPPORT FROM CORPORATE .
BEFORE YOU DISMISS THIS AS BULLshyt, IT HAS HAPPENED ALREADY BEFORE AND IT HELPED CRIPPLE A ENTIRE CITY. AN ENTIRE CITY DIDN'T HAVE ACCESS TO REASONABLY PRICED GOODS FOR 10+ YEARS. I WATCHED IT AND DECOMMISSIONED MANY STORES MYSELF. I STILL HAVE SOME OLD PANASONIC REGISTERS FROM THE STORES.
