The recent attempts at boycotts have taught me that WAY too many people do not care at all to really know what’s happening around them, let alone get involved or, God forbid, inconvenience themselves. Those folks are a problem. It’s sad. They aren’t personally affected so they don’t care.
Haven't bought anything since I spent all the gift cards I got before I retired from teaching. I don't drink burnt coffee and I can get chai elsewhere.
I originally posted this. And I stand opposed to pay inequity. But I also became aware that 89% of Starbucks’ political donations are to democrats or the DNC.

I used to go to Starbucks. I now go to a local Java Johnny’s. It’s a little drive up shack on a corner lot in my neighborhood. Their drinks taste better and are less expensive. I’m happily supporting small business owners.
I went into a Starbucks once and saw people lining up for overpriced coffee and shitty service. Never went back. Baffles me to this day why people ever went there.
My sister likes Starbuck’s. I went there with her and replicated her favorite drink for far less at home; more convenient if you don’t like throwing away your money.
I do not buy coffee at Starbucks and I do not buy bagged coffee from Starbucks at the market. Many other options. If I buy coffe when I am out, I go to local small business coffee shops or donut shops.
We have some Starbucks in Aotearoa, New Zealand but never been a fan. Better coffee elsewhere over here. Thanks for letting us know anyway. Assholes they are.
We need a thousand more Luigi's out there. These CEOs are not worth all this money, they don't build anything in a business. It's the smiling faces making good products that bring people back for more. Screw Starbucks, they sold our Sonics anyway.
Wake up and smell the coffee people. You’re paying $8 for a latte filled with garbage ingredients that tastes like glorified piss so they can pay some lame ass CEO $100M who won’t even move to Seattle.
Find a local coffee shop that actually sells good coffee and support it.

Fuck Starbucks!
I care how much they pay in taxes and taxes whether they help fund a fascist party.
At least we don't have any corruption.
And there’s plenty of both 🙄
There’s no hope for this group of imbeciles
I’ll support local coffee shops and kiosks instead of this bs
