    Coca-Cola is an evil company, so I’m not surprised. All they had to do was make cola, and be cool. Instead they operated like a criminal cartel, murdered labor activists in third world countries, exploited workers, bribed politicians, and evaded taxes. They should crumble under the weight of their crimes. If the government bails them out then we should all protest heavily.

      I think it would be fair to destroy product you see in stores. something to weaken plastic on the outside of bottles, or shaking them. things that make product unsellable, or make it make a mess.

      these companies are beyond evil, clearly simple “im not buying this” doesn’t work; retailers must be punished for stocking this shit.

            You gotta corrupt the supply chain then. Shaking bottles in a store isn’t gonna do shit.

              see, reducing demand at a retailer level is a lot easier to democratize and give kids to do so they feel empowered. plus it makes them think about OTHER products that are associated with awful shit. maybe, someday, I could even go grocery shopping without having to google every single god damn thing I put in my cart!

          Some retail stores now operate on a model where they essentially rent shelf space to wholesalers, who are responsible for stocking the shelves and keep all the money from sales of their product.

        Your motivation is honorable, but this plan would only impact innocent retail employees and would not hurt Coca-Cola at all. I like your initiative, though.

          their hours will be spent cleaning rather than doing the shit they originally needed to do. stores will need to hire more workers (and maybe security. but still) to keep the same standard. is wiping up cola really worse than collecting carts at 40c+?

        Why would making a mess at a random 7-11 hurt Coca Cola in any way? What is the logic here?

            And small corner stores lose money?

            If you want to do something, go slash the tires of Coca Cola execs. Or put some sugar in the tank of their private jet

              if those small corner stores can’t be ASKED to stop stocking coca cola, their profits are not my concern. they are choosing to stock that shit. may as well say the power company can sue me when I install an efficient fridge.
