What a good business model, alienating a good portion of your customers over some stupid virtue signalling lmfao

Why are you assuming everyone else only care about money just because you do?

That's ignoring that I'm sure Ben and Jerry's knows more about how to market their product than a basement dweller pretending to be a bigot on GameFAQs.

There are two options here, either of which make tc's approach nonsensical.

1) Either they crunched the numbers and found that the press and support gained would still earn them a net profit over customers alienated, or

2) They care enough that they would rather not get money from deplorables.

I wouldn't expect your supposed brain to be able to contemplate that just because you have a business does not mean that you are going to seek profits at any cost, just because you would.

"Seeking profits at any cost" and "running away customers because you don't agree with them" are nowhere near comparable.

Ben & Jerry's virtue signalling is nothing new. Remember when they refused to let customers get two scoops of the same flavor in Australia as a protest against gay marriage not being legal there?

They know their target market, and they know that their target markets' mommies and daddies pretty much have open wallets. What they lose in sales over this, they can make up for by jacking up the price.

i like their individual wrapped ice cream treats, particularly the pretzel and caramel one. it's easier to stop yourself from eating too much when it's not in a tub.

This really appeals to their main fanbase. Morbidly obese college kids that like their quirky naming gimmick and thinking that they are gonna tear down the government by yelling loudly and being fat at people.

B&J are gonna make some good money off this probably, and absolutely nothing will be accomplished in the way of combating "Regressive" policies

They long since abandoned veganism when they realised it requires actually making changes to your life, and if you don't follow through, that you'll quite easily be caught out for it and while you can cover up with "muh context" or word-twisting when you're caught, say, being racist; the question of "did you just eat some meat" is a pretty damn black-and-white matter that they can't really do anything about when they get caught out.
