What's wrong with Aldi?

stickshift4me.bsky.social•2 days ago

They changed their phrasing, probably to avoid MAGA harassment, but actions are still the same. See other posts in this thread.

We have Aldi's and was incredibly bummed.
We don't have wegman's, but we have BIG Y.
I think it's safe. Maybe. @goodsuniteus.bsky.social doesn't have them in their app.

For Aldi, they changed their phrasing, probably to avoid MAGA harassment, but actions are still the same. See other posts in this thread. Aldi should be ok👍

lindarey.bsky.social•2 days ago

whew. ok.....although i did also hear that the owner joined musk in some collab. can't remember where I saw it and where the receipt is. but it'll come back to me.

stickshift4me.bsky.social•2 days ago

Ack. I sure hope not😕

I am not buying anything today, but I think this needs to be a sustained effort!! We should have an economic blackout every Wednesday!! We need to create momentum so many others can join in. They can show up by not showing up! It can be a quiet act, but have a huge impact

havebigdreams.bsky.social•4 days ago

I am in.

Do you have a VETTED list with companies and their levels of complicity with the Trump/Musk coup? (eg business ties, oversized campaign donations, labor practices, being bullied about DEI policies, etc)?

Okay, I have mixed feelings on Aldi. They disbanded US DEI, but it is said word for word in the mission statement. So?

christybird.bsky.social•3 days ago

Me too. They pay their employees well and offer paid maternity and paternity leave. My local Aldi in Virginia has a sticker on the front door saying they are dedicated to diversity and inclusion.

anne-s-kim.bsky.social•4 days ago

Hmm. Thanks for pointing this out. The list will clearly be in flux over time.

dvsmemphis.bsky.social•3 days ago

I have mixed feelings for aldi too. They had a 💯 score prior to this.

jblyle.bsky.social•4 days ago

Glad to know it about Wegman's. They're my source for overloads of Red Sweetie cherry tomatoes and house brand hamburger dill slices.

ayeronnie.bsky.social•3 days ago

And we are suppose to be getting an Aldis in our town. 😔

What about Hyundai and Subaru?

barryseymour.bsky.social•4 days ago

Great idea, but the list went by awfully fast. Post it here?

I was going to respond posting this myself.

I was happy to find Netflix on our side. I am getting a new vehicle and it WILL be a Honda though I have to admit I've been driving Honda's for years because I love them & their high resale value. But this is a good way to find out where to shop.

britchic2016.bsky.social•3 days ago

I’m about to renovate my home and I already have the stores and brands picked out (appliances etc) by Dem companies. Will not support companies that support HIM.

purpcheck.bsky.social•4 days ago

I've heard from people who work at Aldi that they're removing the wording, but not the action. They aren't changing anything, they just don't have it in writing.

Which is still weak & pathetic capitulation, but something I may be able to overlook if they actually keep living their values

octobermystic.bsky.social•4 days ago

Words matter.

stickshift4me.bsky.social•2 days ago

Actions also matter (sometimes more).

octobermystic.bsky.social•2 days ago

This is a silly discussion. I wasn't dismissive of actions. But I also know removing language or changing it matters.

purpcheck.bsky.social•3 days ago

Please, don't take me at my word. This is completely anecdotal.

Watch Aldi closely. They've removed guardrails, but if they continue on the good path, it's still worth showing with your money it's worth it to keep DEI policies alive. It's the only thing these fucking ghouls understand
