The Trump FTC tried to hide a complaint showing Pepsi forced shoppers to pay higher prices everywhere but Walmart. But now it's unsealed. And the politics of affordability are explosive.

    Pepsi also is still operating and even expanding their operations in Russia as competitors like Coca Cola have withdrawn after the Ukraine War.

      I’ve stopped consuming as many pepsi-co products that I’m aware of since they took the veil off and dropped DEI. I don’t want to give them any benefit of a doubt that they were pressured into it. The “pressure” was the only excuse they needed to drop it. Fuck’em.

      Well, tbf, Coca Cola is funding the fascist Trump Admin and the GOP campaign funds.

        Not sure what you expected there, Coca Cola is a Southern company. If they didn’t support systemic racism while trying to have clean PR it would be news.

          I expect people to not use them as an example of a company doing something good, like with the Russian markets example. At least not without the disclaimer that I so generously added.

        Meanwhile, Water is out there satisfying people for free and not involved with this bullshit. Oh, also it’s healthy, unlike sodas.

      Well, Russia is the reason Pepsi once had the sixth largest navy in the world.

        In actuality, the only warships acquired by PepsiCo were “small, old, obsolete, unseaworthy vessels”.

        Why do you want to make me sad.

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don’t end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
