Time to make a quick buck, boys

2018-09-04 19:38:31 UTC  

If you can profit from the good decision-making of companies, you can also profit from their bad decision-making

2018-09-04 19:40:02 UTC  

@The Soy Goy great posts today my white brother ✊

2018-09-04 19:40:42 UTC  

The thing that amazes me now is that it isn't profit that motivates these companies. They know that they'll lose money by doing this shit but they still go ahead

2018-09-04 19:41:12 UTC  

They believe their public image is more important than the profits

2018-09-04 19:41:15 UTC  

Risky gamble

2018-09-04 19:41:23 UTC  

I honestly don't get the reasoning, I don't think it really gains them anything

2018-09-04 19:41:25 UTC  

Control is more valuable than money.

2018-09-04 19:41:50 UTC  

Like no one is going to start hating america or loving homosex because Nike says so

2018-09-04 19:42:09 UTC  

It's about maintenance

2018-09-04 19:42:17 UTC  

@DairyMaxx thank you my white racial comrade in the stuggle

2018-09-04 19:42:17 UTC  

If you’re a company like Starbucks, which makes a big woo about your values and your fair trade practices, etc, and then everyone suddenly thinks you’re an evil racist company, your PR is more valuable than a day of profits.

Reputation is everything

2018-09-04 19:42:55 UTC  

Nike made kind of a retarded move though, given their market

2018-09-04 19:43:04 UTC  

Jared Taylor signed my book with literally those exact words

2018-09-04 19:43:19 UTC  

😂

2018-09-04 19:43:26 UTC  

Thought their market was basketball Americans?

2018-09-04 19:43:35 UTC  

They thought they knew what appeals to their customers

2018-09-04 19:43:59 UTC  

*well I got somethin to say*

Is Nike’s market basketball Americans

2018-09-04 19:44:31 UTC  

Apparently sprite is the official black soda, I learned this literally last week

2018-09-04 19:44:48 UTC  

You need sprite to make lean

2018-09-04 19:45:04 UTC  

Immediately after I saw an ad for “Mountain Dew ice” which literally had a trap beat, basketballs, and a chainlink fence

2018-09-04 19:45:09 UTC  

Was kinda floored lmao

2018-09-04 19:45:35 UTC  

They're trying to break into the lean market lmao

2018-09-04 19:46:06 UTC  

Sprite 15 years ago “hey there’s no black soda yet we should hop on it for no reason”

2018-09-04 19:46:16 UTC  

That's not even like a big brain take, that is unironically the reason why sprite is so popular with african americans

2018-09-04 19:46:37 UTC  

I mean, other than orange soda, if Keenan and Kel is any indication

2018-09-04 19:46:58 UTC  

@ophiuchus Nike is a massive company - obviously, but the *upwardly mobile whites who are willing to buy $68 microfiber running shirts* market is desirable.

2018-09-04 19:47:24 UTC  

Nike makes most of its money selling shoes and athletic shorts

2018-09-04 19:47:31 UTC  

Or like dryfit shirts

2018-09-04 19:47:37 UTC  

Everyone buys those

2018-09-04 19:47:42 UTC  

If they feel a company operates against their interest, they can go elsewhere.

2018-09-04 19:47:55 UTC  

>running in a shirt

2018-09-04 19:47:55 UTC  

lots of competition.

2018-09-04 19:48:09 UTC  

Abibas is our company then

2018-09-04 19:48:11 UTC  

Although obviously people have recently been choosing to not buy nike shit tho lol

2018-09-04 19:49:11 UTC  

Nike already got beaned by abibas when abibas decided to bring Mack the retro shoes which everyone liked and Nike just ate crayons for a minute

2018-09-04 19:49:11 UTC  

I am shameless stealing @Benis's content today

2018-09-04 19:50:42 UTC
