Basically it looks like Starbucks is allowing their store managers to decide if they put up pride decorations in their store or not. Some store managers in red states have decided not to because I guess they don't want to suicide their sales numbers for June.

I frankly don't care. I'd definitely scab on this strike myself were I were a Starbucks worker since it's retarded. Were I starbucks corporate I'd be looking into ways to automate the stores and remove the human element.

And as a customer Starbucks tastes like battery acid and I don't drink it regardless if I have a choice. Like no shit prefer coffee from McDonald's. Cheaper and tastier.

The pride decorations just annoy me at this point. I didn't use to care much but it feels patronizing as fuck seeing giant rainbow stuff everywhere to the point where I'd rather just go somewhere that has normal decorations. Same with lots of this stuff. All the American flag stuff after 911 was started to grate. As of course I feel like Christmas decorations do as well.

Just empty commercialism.

41% is a pretty large number.
