wStarbucks clearly hates Christmas. And Jesus. And fun. And probably freedom. Have you seen their new cups? They're GREEN! What is that? Where's the pictures of Christmas trees, or presents, or I don't know, Jesus? Starbucks clearly needs to be a Christian company since obviously Christianity is the only way. Their cups are green too! Where did the red go?
Starbucks says this design is a "mosaic of more than a hundred people drawn in one continuous stroke."
Apparently Howard Shultz, the CEO of Starbucks, wants to "celebrate community." Apparently he said, “During a divisive time in our country, Starbucks wanted to create a symbol of unity as a reminder of our shared values, and the need to be good to each other."
Why are we celebrating community? Shouldn't we be celebrating Jesus? That's what the holiday season is all about, right? We don't like giving, or coming together for the holidays, we simply celebrate Jesus, and that's all we're allowed to celebrate.
And look at the outrage on Twitter!
Like, what the heck Starbucks? This isn't cool.
Oh wait. These cups were meant for the Presidential election, since we seem to be more divided than ever, and these are actually the new holiday cups? I was getting upset at a cup that was meant to promote unity?
Well, ok. The green cups are fine, but I'm still going to mad about these cups instead of being mad about any real issue in the world, because obviously that's going to make a real change in the world.
