Things are worse than you think in 2024, Brother Mayor. I saw boxed sets of Christmas cards with African-American Santas and African-American Nutcracker figures and African-American children making a snowman! It's bad enough that the words, "Marry Christmas" were missing from one set of cards, but the cultural appropriation of Northern European myths and ballets*and outdoor winter activities is very offensive!


* It's either a ballet or an opera, I think.

Oh, I am afraid that this is nothing new, dear Sister Handmaiden. Those darkies have been pushing their way around for quite some time now, as you shall see from the abominanable travesty below. (Kindly ensure to wear ear-protective gear, and put the kitties outside before listening to this mess!)

The war against a white-race Christmas remains. It's up to us to fight back.

It's 2024, Mr. Starbucks. No Baby Jesus again this year. Here is a warning. No Baby Jesus, no franchise in Freehold:

I hadn't noticed that; who thinks this stuff up? So glad I cook my own green coffee beans (in a wok) before grinding (in a mortar) as required. Using a ceramic pot (to heat the ground beans in water) means that no metal is used during preparation.

Re: Starbucks Hates Baby Jesus

I was hoping, even praying, this would be the year Starbucks would feature Baby Jesus on its Christmas coffee cup. That picture and a brief scripture would spread the story of Jesus all over the world.

But, no, it did not happen this year. Starbucks can't seem to recognize Christmas is about rejoicing Baby Jesus, not drinking its expensive coffee.

Why has she got a pentagram on her head?

Re: Starbucks Hates Baby Jesus

Seriously, Starbucks? A woman holding her legs behind her head? There is no place for this kind of blatant sexuality in polite society.

I couldn't unsee that visual quick enough to block the thought that those were my legs and she was penetrating me with a large plastic strapon. Mm, I need some coffee.

I recuse to buy anything at Starbucks until they change their logo.

Re: Starbucks Hates Baby Jesus

I was hoping it would be another verse:

Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” King James Version (KJV)

I wonder if the company is open to negotiation.

This is where the training comes in. Starbucks complained that Isa 9:6 was too long, it would not fit on the cup, and that customers would lose interest halfway through.

They did try to cut it down to “For a child is Wonderful, Counsellor," but couldn't understand why that might be misinterpreted as a remark to a lawyer.

I'm glad Starbucks has a nice red cup with a Bible verse. I was hoping it would be another verse:

Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” King James Version (KJV)

Re: Starbucks Hates Baby Jesus

Many of you will remember the post that started this thread:

This war of Christmas is getting worse every year. This year, the Starbucks corporation took any reference to the word Christmas or the birth of Jesus off its cups. Instead, the cups are red, period. The outrage is growing. Here in the Des Moines metro the boycott is on. Starbucks needs to get out the magic markers and write "Merry Christmas" manually on every cup before this thing ends.




Snowflakes, doves and trees are out and minimalism is in for Starbuck’s signature holiday cups — to the dismay of Christian evangelists.
The coffee chain’s seasonal designs are remixed each year, but this year’s tri-color tone of red, green and white has apparently angered some religious leaders for declaring a so-called “war on Christmas.”
“Starbucks REMOVED CHRISTMAS from their cups because they hate Jesus,” wrote former Arizona pastor Joshua Feuerstein in a viral Facebook post that had at least 8 million views Saturday night.

Well, I'm pleased to announce that after years of protracted and delicate negotiations, Landover and Starbucks have agreed a transitional compromise:

By Easter, all hint of rabbits should be gone and training in appropriate verses will have begun.


So Starbucks is again a "Permitted Place" within the Town Ordinances: Don't forget to ask for you "special cup".

Re: Starbucks Hates Baby Jesus

Just when you think Starbucks has given the ultimate bird to we True Christians™, it insults us even further. The 2017 Starbucks Christmas cup is all about celebrating homerism. Please don't buy Starbucks. It promotes the homer agenda:

Re: Starbucks Hates Baby Jesus

Someone told me recently that Ronald McDonald hates Baby Jesus as much as Starbucks. Impossible, I thought. That was until I looked into it. No Baby Jesus here:
