Love it!

I agree it must be truthful, or this could turn into Twitter. As for JD's complaint, it’s worse than tariffs, which it did according to CNN and others; Trump has turned trade and international relations into a street fight where there are no rules.

Suck it up. Maybe Jack Daniels Vance can help your sorry arses.

lkaren7.bsky.social•17 hours ago

The JD layoffs were actually announced in January as a result of low consumer sales.

The hardship to 'true Germans' created by Nazi policies was STILL supported by them working harder than ever before to win and defeat the other people holding them back.

thebackwoodsfag.bsky.social•15 hours ago

God I'm getting tired of fact checking this as it makes the rounds on here. The layoffs were from JANUARY, before Trump even took office, long before the tariffs, and were tied to inflation and an overall drop in sales since the pandemic.

A five second Google search will show you this isn't real.

lise-lamimi.bsky.social•15 hours ago

everything but the last sentence is true. Most people don't even read to the end. I went back to see what you were referring to. So, I wouldn't worry about it too much. It's still a higher accuracy count than anything maga writes lol

thebackwoodsfag.bsky.social•15 hours ago

No, this whole thing is disingenuous. This is specifically worded to try and imply that the tariffs caused the layoffs. You know damn well that's what this is. And you also know damn well no one's going to bother reading any linked articles that would very plainly show this isn't the case. (1/2)

thebackwoodsfag.bsky.social•15 hours ago

I don't care what lies the MAGA cult is spinning, we're better than that and don't have to stoop to this type of foolishness. This is the kind of hot garbage that made Twitter and Facebook amplification systems for MAGA lies in 2020. (2/2)

Jack Daniels is not from Kentucky

I wouldn't trust a word in this meme

Friends don't help Friends become Morons

seriously, why do people post shit without checking? Trying to make everyone here look as stupid as MAGAts?

wileykann.bsky.social•17 hours ago

The layoff talk began before the tariffs - there is a barrel making plant in Louisville that they are closing, most of the jobs are being lost in Tennessee

But the county Louisville is in, voted decisively for Harris 57.4% to 40.9%

The meme is mostly very misleading

fuckitbucket13.bsky.social•15 hours ago

The same is happening in KY, though, where they make Bourbon, i.e. Jim Beam, etc.

Jack Daniels is Tennessee Whisky. It's not from Kentucky. Getting this so transparently wrong takes away from a valid point.

santoshim.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Actually, the owner of JD, Brown-Forman, is based in louisville, Kentucky. So. Tenn ... Ky...2 sides of the same coin.

laverneousdonkler.bsky.social•15 hours ago

The post says Jack Daniels made in Kentucky. It is not. Made in Lynchburg Tennessee. When you're trying to make a point - one I agree with - a mistake on a small simple easily verifiable point gives trumpaloompas ammunition they should not have. Don't get defensive. But let's be better than them.

The article states that the layoffs were announced in JANUARY. Long before talks of tariffs.

Facts matter.

Article also says that Ontario made up 1% of its sales, with Mexico being 7%.

I’m just saying that Jack didn’t layoff hundreds of folks because of the tariffs. They may have to in the future. Who knows.

There are the tariffs, but there is also the '51st State' threat, that has offended every single Canadian thru to the core.
This will not end until Trump and his cronies are out of office.

and how many of their employees

richienewport.bsky.social•15 hours ago

I have zero sympathy for ANYONE who voted for Trump. Absolutely none.

In fact, they all deserve EXACTLY what they hoped Trump would do to immigrants and minorities and to anyone else they don’t like.

They deserve nothing less. And they should get it.

-White Women in Florida voted for a bill for women rights and also voted for Trump

This is why black folks should continue not to participate.

it doesn't excuse posting inaccurate memes. Especially when there are many legitimate things and - genuine articles like the one you posted.

Morons post crap without being sure they aren't helping to make more morons

Morons care nothing about integrity, but most sane people do.

Not selfish morons
