HYPOCRITES!

juliadilliard.bsky.social•133 days ago

Of course. Even tfg employed undocumented migrants. Hypocrites.

passonx.bsky.social•133 days ago

I use ULine alot for shipping. Buy boxes in bulk. Threw them all out. If I get a box going forward from a merchant in a ULine box, I will send an empty box back to the merchant with a note in it that I will NEVER purchase an item from them again as long as they use this company to ship their items.

The owners of Uline are also Christian Nationalists and have supported efforts to overturn elections. https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-ziklag-secret-christian-charity-2024-election

Whelp. Last time I buy from them. So many MAGAts in this country.

mimicrochets.bsky.social•133 days ago

Of course. The rules are for thee not for me. Assholes.

ncalcote.bsky.social•133 days ago

These people don’t want to end immigration, they want to demonize immigrants. Keep them illegal and scared so that they can be controlled and exploited.

angiesuniverse.bsky.social•133 days ago

Yup... that is what they do.

miri100.bsky.social•109 days ago

Confused immigrants illegally what’s the shock?

coloirishmary.bsky.social•133 days ago

Without hypocrisy Republicans would have nothing.

zuhleika.bsky.social•133 days ago

True hypocrites. Greedy bastards.

dropdea.bsky.social•133 days ago

So you're saying they are filthy hypocrites? Somehow, I feel like we already knew it.

reneevoicebrand.bsky.social•133 days ago

It's the 'do as I say not as I do' contingent.

The Left keeps accusing these people of rank hypocrisy, and keeps acting surprised when the hypocrites keep acting like hypocrites. Strategic error.

I’ve been using an app called Goods Unite Us- it does the background research for companies to let you know who supports the Repugs and how much $$ was donated either by the company and/or C-Suite. SO helpful as I navigate where NOT to spend my money. 💙

Every GOP is a hypocrite. Infuriating.

shirlsurely.bsky.social•133 days ago

AND just like that....ONE more Company to add to my list of "NEVER GONNA GIVE THEM A DIME!" Companies.

larchwren.bsky.social•109 days ago

Hypocrisy.

The word doesn’t have the sting that it used to. Perhaps, à la Orwell, it has been redefined as a Republican virtue. Soon we may see the office of Minitrue start up.

Same family that spent millions trying to defeat the right to abortion constitutional amendment IN OHIO last year.

trashiepanda.bsky.social•133 days ago

I no longer use Uline for anything (mainly business shipping previously) I'd rather crawl through broken glass than put money in ANY of DJT's best fiend's hands. #BoycottDJT

annlovesdogs16.bsky.social•133 days ago

Umm, Trump does the same, with complete immunity. It’s public knowledge. There is nothing he, nor his minions can do that would turn his cult away from him. Nothing.

bobinnc.bsky.social•133 days ago

Shocking…not!

odeecs.bsky.social•133 days ago

Because of course they did.

jaygolfenthusiast.bsky.social•133 days ago

This is SOP for all the Trumper clowns. Just yapping about populist BS and the morons lick it up but are too stupid to notice that nothing will change. Fuck em all

caliwash83.bsky.social•133 days ago

This really isn't surprising. Many large corporations are using undocumented migrants in their labor force. It's not like we have 11 million unemployed migrants in the U.S. This is the absurdity of idiots who keep thinking we need to deport 11 million people...the vast majority of them are filling..

caliwash83.bsky.social•133 days ago

jobs that will remain vacant if we deport them (unemployment is around 4% right now). Who's going to do that work? Plus, these companies aren't punished for hiring undocumented migrants, so what's the disincentive to hiring them in the first place? E-Verify would address this, but then...

caliwash83.bsky.social•133 days ago

the companies would be held accountable and would likely have to pay their employees more. Better for the companies to fund (mostly) GOP politicians who disingenuously rail against illegal immigrants without actually putting legislation in place to address the root cause(s).

cannaguy.bsky.social•133 days ago

Uline sucks anyways but after I found out they were huge Trump supporters I have stopped using them for anything. Stickermule also.

mamawinf.bsky.social•133 days ago

Of course they did! Greed, hypocrisy, and lies seem the norm for the oligarchy.

eliotsmom.bsky.social•133 days ago

Well, color me SHOCKED. 🙄 Stupid hypocritical MAGAs.

itsmeollie.bsky.social•133 days ago

Uline is evil.

batmobile63-65.bsky.social•133 days ago

It’s always there, you just have to look for it!

bbcrankyb4covfefe.bsky.social•133 days ago

What businesses use this company ? Time for a boycott !

elisajstewart.bsky.social•133 days ago

These guys are also all in and pushed anti-abortion policies. These policies are killing or maiming women and girls and we don’t know how many because states with bans are hiding their deaths and injuries.
