    Their parent company is gonna make millions for Israel off of this fake PR scheme and for some reason people on this website keep posting “le epic corporation” memes

    They’re trying to turn justice into a brand so they can sell it to us. Why do you think the high profile pro Israel people like this dick cheese and Ben Shapiro immediately started posting “I’m boycotting it” ? Because whenever they boycott something the sales go up. Ben and Jerry’s was working in occupied Palestine since 1987, before the acquisition. And these articles even state they have no intention of pulling business out of Israel just the ones that give them bad PR in Palestine.

    Please be wary of any “political” action by a corporation whose goal it is to inspire you to buy something.

      It isn’t political action. It is anti-Semitic genocidal violence

        In less than 24 hours I’ve seen some variation of this story on hexbear at least 3 times. I’m probably just terminally online and this is just hexbear’s infatuation with easy to meme “news” stories and has nothing to do with free ice cream advertising. Carry on.

      Because that's their brand. The see something liberal-ish and parade around saying how they hate it. Then they see something conservative-ish and :shapiro-poplar:

    Saying only Jewish people are allowed to determine what should or should not be on a green screen perpetrates harmful stereotypes of Jews in the movie industry and is anti-Semitic
