This hand thing is even more ridiculous than normal and it's 100% them in a habit of getting mad about Christmas at Starbucks and figuring out a way to make that happen regardless. It's not even Starbucks trolling with positive stuff they know will anger conservatives; these people are mad because their broken minds see two arms holding hands and make the logical leaps of [hands sorts look feminine] -> [holding hands is inherently an act of love and there is no other reason] -> [they must be two women in love so LESBIANS] -> [Starbucks is pushing their subversive gay agenda IN MY FACE]. They are absolutely addicted to the feeling of anger from being persecuted despite actually never being persecuted for anything.

EDIT: Unless of course this is an elaborate troll to get people that are mad about people mad at the War on Christmas riled and then touche.

It's weird that it's always Starbucks, because it's not like everywhere else has seasonal packaging that is not using purely evangelical Christmas imagery. The best I can think of is that Starbucks is well know as being founded in that godless liberal hellhole known as Seattle.

starbucks is a popular target for conservative rage because it is ubiquitous and vaguely liberal, so you get to feel like a real billy badass when you buy your coffee at a diner or gas station or whatever

Yeah, it's the face of the latte-sippin' liberal stereotype they've had built up in their heads.

It's even worse considering a lot of other chains have jumped on serving that type of coffee as well. Hell, Tim Hortons' advertising these days is almost non-stop about its lattes.

I read a loving Jim Baker article somewhere this morning or last night where he's selling pancake mix for $60 a bag and offering it as a defense against the apocolypse or some poo poo. Probably Cracked or Av Club. People still hand this creepy mother loving felon their hard earned money. There's some other televangilist rear end in a top hat selling "miracle spring water" that claims to cure disease.

gently caress these people and the idiots that fork over their money to them. I hate megachurch televangalist poo poo heads, faith healers and snake oil salesmen. Deserves its own thread really.

That is actually one of the least objectionable things that Jim Bakker is up to these days. This rear end in a top hat is pretty openly agitating for violence against anyone who opposes Trump right now by quite literally demonizing them.

it's more that for some odd reason coffee shops are a big thing in suburban evangelical culture and starbucks is pretty much the only game in town in those godless hellholes apart from the ones inside the big megachurch complexes, so they become an easy target for their ire

Again a very likpatous story
Did something new happen in the "IRS targeting conservatives" scandal? Doc Thompson was going on and on about it on Beck's show this morning.

e: Also I caught a bit of Hannity's opening yesterday and I couldn't stop laughing as he talked about how "Whenever a liberal is accused of sexual misconduct, the left circles their wagons around them and defend them at all costs" because it was one of the most blatant cases of "accuse the other side of what you're guilty of."

Yeah. It was officially given up on with no sign of targeting conservatives, just politically aligned organizations of every stripe. And the article was in Forbes, a well known liberal rag .

Left: Blatant condemnation of Al Franken, Louis C.K., and Harvey Weinstein. Dozens of hand-wringing articles asking, "Were we hard enough on Bill Clinton?"

Right: Softball interview with Roy Moore. The President says he should win. Renewing primetime TV contracts despite tens of millions in hush money to sexual victims.

So, yeah, the left is the fuckin' worst.

This is why Ben Shapiro is so loving dangerous; it's because legacy media still sees him as legitimate opposition. Oh, and 80% of his audience is under 40, which means motherfuckers like him will be responsible for dividing this country long after the O'Reillys and Limbaughs are dead.
