If you are reading this while drinking a can of Coke, may I suggest a Pepsi?
Friday, images leaked online from an alleged internal whistleblower at Coca-Cola showing that the company made its employees complete a racist training program with the goal to be, wait for it, “less white.”
🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING: Coca-Cola is forcing employees to complete online training telling them to "try to be less white."

OutKick has reached out to Coca-Cola for confirmation and comment on the reports. OutKick will update this story if and when Coke returns our emails and calls. Warning to the readers: no comments and ignored requests are, in fact, comments. Powerful comments.
Unfortunately, a major company stooping to this level wouldn’t be surprising. As I’ve warned for months, our country is inching toward a place where high-ranking executives see citizens only by their skin color, individuality be damned. What’s worse, it’s spreading rapidly through our country’s schools (many over Zoom, of course). This week, a disgraceful New York school sent parents a “white identities” chart to find their level of whiteness. If they are too white, they may have to apologize and self-punish.
This is education in 2021:
This is happening all over, in schools, in offices, in media, in Hollywood, and of course, in Silicon Valley.
I mean, where is Candace Owens wrong?
If a corporate company sent around a training kit instructing black people how to “be less black”, the world would implode and lawsuits would follow.
I genuinely hope these employees sue @CocaCola for blatant racism and discrimination. https://t.co/07OPZouEcV

How long until “your level of whiteness must be X” shows up on public job postings? At this point, why hide it behind private training courses?
By the way, rum and Pepsi aren’t bad together.
For about 61 years I have enjoyed a 6 1/2 oz last 10 years a 8oz cold coke in glass bottle a couple of times a week can’t woke assholes let us enjoy a few things without screwing it up.
The brainwashing that is taking place starting now in elementary schools! It is going to yield a staggering and disastrous bunch of angry retarded robots
We can’t even say “retarded” now!!
I’m definitely selling my stock in KO.
Ya, been DRiP’ing $KO for over a decade. Been dead money other than the div. I think now is a good time to unload all of it. No joke.
Wonder if the same geniuses that came up with New Coke designed this brain fart.This might make new coke remembered as a brilliant plan.
No shit and this blatant insanity will just continue until people start making them pay where it hurts…..By banding together and saying to hell with these self aggrandizing tools and not buying their product. They’re more afraid of the select few in the radical left than the majority of their consumers…..They used to call this bad business
This is sad. Two wrongs don’t make a right. We need to not judge people by skin color and other identity factors. Until we get back to judging people on what they do and their character, we are going to be in trouble in the USA. I’m a Coke drinker and will continue to consume their product. I don’t like Pepsi and to be honest, they’re right along for the ride when it comes to identity politics. Like Clay, I don’t like cancel culture. I hope the corporations wake up and realize the error of their ways of focusing too much on identity politics.
An individual choosing to not buy a product is not cancel culture, that’s voting with ones wallet.
Cancel culture is all the social media demands, raising mobs, involving others, and the retribution that go along with it.
Completely two different things.
Cancel culture is when an individual’s past comment or action is brought to light, and then social media demands the person be fired, not allowed to enter a university, etc.
Deciding not to buy a Coke is a way of telling Coke management that you will not support their indoctrination. No one is calling for them to be forced out of businesses, just that some of us will not make them richer based on their asinine wokeness forced onto their workers.
Exactly ^
Cancel culture says: “Coca Cola should be erased / eliminated as a company”.
Choosing to take your dollar elsewhere is *not* the same thing ^^
Adding Coke to my “no buy” list!
Ditto. My list is getting pretty damn long!
I hope all these woke C.E.O.’s get a fast, aggressive fast moving cancer and they scream in pain.
Glad to see so many ‘brothers’ and ‘sisters’ stand up and denounce the racist BS………oh, never mind…..
What the hell is wrong with our country man its hard to believe how petty and ugly we have become and of course this new administration is choke full of racist separatist Mfers ain’t going to end well if this shiznit doesn’t stop
I am a honkey. What level of white is that again?
I’m looking. Cannot find if it is whiter than cracker, so assume that you are as white as cracker if you are a honkey.
As reparations, you can apply blackface — you know, just like Blackface Justine or Exalted Cyclops Northam….
I’d be such a terrible employee. I’d go public with every single class or memo simply because I’d be so damned mad to have to postpone my work to listen to or be forced to read such effing drivel.
But Pepsi tastes like shit.
Drink Dr. Pepper or just start drinking beer earlier in the day.
Drinking beer earlier sounds good to me! (If beer companies go woke I will really be tested. But even if a few go woke I doubt they all will)
and Pepsi was one of the first major corporations to jump on the BLM bandwagon in terms of funding them- even after it came to light that they are a marxist, anti-family group- and creating commercials supporting them.
Coke went woke….dammit.
So this may not be a complete list, but if you want to avoid all coke products they also make sprite, pibb xtra, Dasani, smart water, vitamin water, Fanta, Minute Maid, Barq’s, fuse, Fresca, Mello Yello, lilt, surge, hi-c, fruitopia, nestea, oasis, Schweppes, innocent, simply, fair life, Georgia and costa coffees, honest/gold peak/peace tea, topo Chico, Aquarius, appletiser, and the one I will be giving up Powerade.
Schweppes isn’t a Coke brand
Don’t forget, RC Cola is an option (if you can find it).
RC is good. If I want a soda, I’ll go that direction
According to their website Schweppes is one of theirs. It is on the front page
https://www.coca-colacompany.com/brands
Schweppes is owned in the US by Keurig Dr Pepper and distributed (generally) by Pepsi. The beverage industry is kind of crazy. Much of the craziness happened when Cadbury Schweppes split itself up.
Dasani is literally the city of Atlanta’s water that they put in a plastic bottle and charge you $1.75.
That’s how stupid the people in this country are.
BTW I HATE pepsi, tastes like crap and I can take a blind taste test 100x and tell you the difference between coke and pepsi at least 99x. I wish I didn’t like coke so much. It’s full of sugar and empty calories but crummy diet coke tastes like tree bark and the even faker “coke zero” is horrible too.
Think I’ll just have a water!!
do they realize that Ginger Ale is better. that people will dump coke for ginger ale in a second. 😜
You can thank Obama for this. His reversal of everything Martin Luther King stood for and tried helping heal this country. Obama blatantly hated cops, whites and Christians. This isn’t debatable.
So let’s talk about who insists that whites are superior. White supremacists, obviously for one. How about…leftists? They consistently tell everybody that whites need to be cut down to size. They’re saying that whites are superior and need to stop thinking they are. Why can’t whites make fun of people of other races? It’s punching down? Why? Are white people superior? If not, why can’t Apu still be on the Simpsons?
And there’s plenty of overlap between leftists and WSGs.
Lol. Coca Cola has been a hardcore racist company from its inception.
(Continued)… No self-respecting Black would fall for this pandering.
They need to put the Coke back in Coke.
Lol, Coca Cola was created and named by a former Confederate officer, who was also a former slave owner, after the war. Guess they will conveniently leave that part out.
If I worked for Coke and they required me to undergo this training, the first thing I would do is go to HR and asked to be excused based on the grounds that it is discriminatory/racist. If they punished me (loss of job, withholding of bonus, etc.) I then find a lawyer and sue the shit out of them. It boggles my mind that any self respecting white person would allow themselves to go through this training.
That’s exactly right. This will never end unless people start reversing the lawsuits and standing up for what is right. “Ending Racism” doesn’t mean making white people feel less than. Yet another reason I am ecstatic to own my own business and be my own boss. I will never bow down to this racist shit. People need to say enough is enough. As Candace Owens said imagine if a company tried to tell its black, Hispanic, homosexual, etc employees to be less _____ (whatever they are). This week I have seen some of the most racist things coming from so called tolerant liberals. Liberals like this are so obsessed with white people it is disturbing and as one commenter above stated it is liberals who are always telling minorities that white people have a superiority complex. This has to stop.
Excellent

I don’t know if this link copied but this article explains the ideology behind the entire leftist push. Absolutely critical to understand. Marcuse-anon’s books are the current leftist bible. Basic philosophy is that capitalism is evil and made us all consumer slaves but we are too stupid to know it or revolt because life is too good especially for the working class. The working class should be the core of the “Revolution” but they are too dumb and happy. SO, you have to divide people and spread misery in order to develop the fertile ground for revolution. The revolution then leads to Utopia where we are all sitting around fully cared for using our talents for pleasurable pursuits. I’m not kidding either. They believe these ideas and are enacting them. Matt Taibbi’s review is much better than my brief overview. When an editor from Rolling Stone sees a problem with the left you know we are in trouble.
Thanks for this post. It is sickening that folks are allowed to write such bull shit and get away with it. Who are the damn publishing companies that even print this racist nonsense?
I read Taibbi’s article, and then unsubscribed when he completely trashed Rush Limbaugh after he died. It was an article filled with hate and misdirection. I knew Matt leaned left, but that did it for me. I can find intelligent resources elsewhere without the hate.
Thanks for this. I read Taibbi regularly- he is one of the last honest actual liberals left. He and Glen Greenwald. Both are constantly excoriating leftists and leftism. Taibbi called “White Fragility” one of the worst books ever written, LOL!
Wow, just wow! This is the most blatantly racist thing I have seen in a long time, and that’s saying something. Woka-Cola
keep doing what you’re doing, Clay. an employee fired by Coke, although it would take a long time, would win, depending on the judge and jury, could win a king’s ransom in court…sadly i had to use the word “depending”…
the moral compass of many has lost magnetic north…
They’re getting trashed on social media. Lots of good memes. At least word is getting out there on conservative sites…
This is insane. Done with Coke products. Dr. Pepper, here I come.
Dr Pepper is the way^
Coke just called probably 50% of its customers racist. Think about that
Yep
Less white you mean lets act like the blacks in chitown and be shooting and murdering each other and living uncivilized lives does coke no what the fuck they are talking about just look around when blacks become a majority in any city its bad news facts still matter just saying
We gotta remember though, that it was a white liberal named Robin Deangelo who came up with this training. She is the one pointing a finger at her own race as being the problem. She has made millions off of selling hate and divisiveness. Marxists who are pushing this training want to create volatility so they can take power. They want us pointing a finger at each other instead of at them. It is white liberals in universities and media who are causing all of this. It is not even about race at all. Liberals are just using race as their tool.
As other VIP’s said, we have to “vote with our wallet”. or we have to try fight back with lawyers. All of the liberal elite and their hate will crumble eventually.
So glad I no longer buy soda pop at all.
Can’t even drink a soda without this garbage?
Coke and Pepsi are run by the same establishment. Check out Sherman Skolnick’s articles on this from over 20 years ago as well as their ties to China. (You wont find this on a google search). https://rense.com/Datapages/skolnickdatapage.html
https://rense.com/general3/coca.htm
I still think the essence of what white really means is Christian.
I guess I can’t drink coke anymore
maybe the can hire “colon” kaepernick as spokesmen……..
