In case you weren’t aware, Coca Cola is one of the products on the BDS sh*ts sh*t-list, because it has a factory in Atarot (staffed by palestinian Arab workers, mind you), and because Israeli soldiers have often been pictured with Coke cans (even though Gazans also have, mind you).
Yeah, their boycotts hurt the people they supposedly support.
And even though palestinian Arabs are still clearly benefiting from Coke, they are producing some alternatives.
Like Chat Cola.
And Gaza Cola:
Notice something about these “alternatives”?
Of course, they ripped off the cans’ design from Coca Cola. Because when you steal narratives you’ll also steal other things.
Meanwhile, as Irish Israel-haters support boycotting Coca Cola as part of the BDS campaign, how’s this for a hilarious coincidence?
Coca-Cola HBC has completed the acquisition of BDS Vending Solutions – a food and drink vending service business in Ireland.
Founded in 1993, BDS Vending has a fleet of around 2,000 vending machines that sell snacks and cold and hot beverages.
The acquisition, which was finalised on February 28, is part of Coca-Cola HBC Ireland and Northern Ireland’s strategy to expand its route-to-market and direct-to-consumer services.
“BDS Vending together with Coca-Cola HBC Ireland and Northern Ireland has the potential to transform the vending industry on the island of Ireland,” said Simon Fitzpatrick, general manager of Coca-Cola HBC Ireland and Northern Ireland.
