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.

like their quirky naming gimmick and thinking that they are gonna tear down the government by yelling loudly and being fat at people.

Worked for Donald Trump.

Lul, the mistake isn't the name or theme of the flavor, the mistake was specifically attacking Trump in the official reveal.

People want to identify as whatever makes them happy. Ben and Jerry's made a flavor supporting that idea and conservatives are pissed as hell. Which party is the bad one again?

All those replies in the tweet look a lot like how my facebook singles group looks whenever politics come up. It's like they all go insane or something and go on and on how the left is unhinged and snowflakes and crazy. It's so creepy.

I don't think they will go out of business, regardless, but Nike's promotional didn't tack on a specific political attack.

That doesn't make a special difference. These mythical swing voters aren't going to stop buying ice cream. B&J's doesn't have much competition when it comes to mixed ice cream.

Halo tastes better and is like a buck cheaper anyway. And they don't need to give their flavors weird ass names, they just say "Chocolate" or "Pistachio" instead of "Swiss Mountain Weekenders Delight" or whatever it is Ben and Jerry's does.

So for all of you mad at Ben and Jerry's you do realize they're owned by Unilever, right? You plan on protesting all their brands? There's a lot of them.

Oddly, the only one I recognize as something I've regularly consumed is Breyers, and Degree.

Ben and Jerry's doesn't directly compete with Halo Top. Breyer's Delight and Culture Republik are the two UL brands that do.

I'll be honest, I'm not familiar with either of those, but I do know where I shop, Ben and Jerry's is right next to Halo Top on the shelf.

They're both pretty new. I think the Culture brand ice cream just came out this month.

That would explain why then. Being that it's almost November in Maryland, Ice cream has not been on the list for a while.

Either way, this doesn't bother me enough to stop using DEGREE for Men unless I can find a more effective anti-persprint that isn't twice the cost.

Seems really bizarre to target social justice left types with a dairy product.

The same groups that see dairy as a symbol of white supremacy, not vegan, bad for the environment, dairy industry horrors, etc.


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.

Damn, thanks for reminding me. That makes sense and is probably why this gimmick has worked for Ben and Jerry. (Along with a lack of education.)

It's depressing that people can go full #resist against a regressive agenda... by supporting the dairy industry. Giving your money to big contributors of climate change and big donors of the republican party because you'd rather buy this corny shit instead of moving your hand a few inches and buying the coconut ice cream instead.

Conservatives: "Can you believe those stupid liheral soyboy cucks are crying because Trump are two scoops of ice cream? You know they have no real agenda cause they're crying over literal fucking ice cream!"

Also conservatives: "Can you believe divisive-ass Ben and Jerry's actually has the nerve to trigger me with the name of their ice cream flavor? Don't those people know this is why Trump won?"

I wonder if they can appreciate the irony in railing against liherals enjoying a giggle vs them literally losing their shit over the same thing they misconstrued liberals for. Literally imagine being every bit of the caricature you accuse other people of being. Grand Ol Projection strikes again.
