Morphine Prince 110,031 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 The online video that introduced the 2017 holiday cup on Nov. 1 featured a diverse cast of Starbucks customers, including a pair of cartoon women who were shown holding hands. The nature of their relationship was not specified, but some viewers saw them as a nod toward the inclusion of gay and transgender customers. The video itself did not attract negative attention. The latest controversy has focused instead on a pair of gender-neutral hands holding each other on the side of the cup itself. Fox News picked up the story of what it called the “androgynous” cartoon hands, referring to Bible-quoting critics of Starbucks and criticizing BuzzFeed, which it said had “asserted the hypothesis is fact.” The conservative site The Blaze also waded in, saying Starbucks had launched a “gay agenda campaign.” Fox said it asked Starbucks about the cartoons but the company “neither confirms nor denies the allegations,” by which it presumably meant the promotion of lesbianism. But in an email to The Times, Starbucks said it would let customers decide for themselves what the cup was about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

skaxboy 7,109 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Christmas is about Jesus. Jesus is not on the cups. Why aren’t conservatives outraged about that? Brewing your own coffee isn’t that hard. Conservatives should just keep their mouths shut and buy a coffee machine on Black Friday for $10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
