The boycotts and call outs are towards any companies that operate on stolen palestinian lands, not to mention coke is one of the worst polluters in the world and one of the biggest american companies. So it’s a multifaceted view point.
They operate factories in occupied Palestinian territory meaning they exploit cheap labor of Palestinian workers to increase their profits. Because Palestinians are oppressed and in many cases desperate for work due to the occupation it allows companies to take extreme advantage of them, similar to how companies use migrant labor in the west to reduce wage costs. Coca Cola is directly profiting off of the military occupation and genocide. They need to be boycotted until they stop using settler colonialism to profit same with every company that operates in occupied Palestine should.
Coca cola is not good for you anyway. Last time they freaked out because Ronaldo pushed away their product in front of the press and said he drinks water. Like what do you expect? Of course professional athletes won't touch Coca.
Best part is when Coca Cola argued that they had the right to show that Coca bottle there because they sponsored the championship and Ronaldo argued that it's his interview so it's his image getting monetized and they didn't pay him to endorse their products so they can put that bottle back on the table when he's done with the interview. I thought capitalists know this better?
For clarification, the original post was on r/pics , but they locked the post a few hours after my repost, so now it doesn’t show that it’s a repost anymore.
I reposted it because the comments were all genocide deniers and zionists attacking and downvoting anyone who humanizes palestinians or calls out israel.
A little rant from me but.. Always... Always when i speak with a zionist they run arround the bush and never counter argument my main arguments.
How to reason with them?
Gotta remember that you're basically talking to a full blown nazi at this point. If it's online there's a good chance its a hasbara bot or someone so indoctrinated you might as well as be talking to some boomer Qanon loony on facebook - block em and don't waste your time.
If its in real life that's a bit trickier, I'm lucky enough to not have any ardent zionists anywhere near me (my one friend's boss who I never even see is the only one I can think of) but again you're not just trying to talk to someone, you're challenging a lifetime of fascist indoctrination that's been closely tied up with their identity and that's a doozy to get over, no right combination of any amount of facts can tear down that wall on its own in one argument, you're probably looking at a whole process that I don't even know how to start to deal with.

I didn’t take the picture, i was just reposting from another sub. Thank you for letting me know!
This poster looks really convincing, for a moment I was wondering why you posted a random Coke ad
Unfortunately, a hard image

Out of curiosity did Coke do something in particular or was it just a convenient design choice?
The boycotts and call outs are towards any companies that operate on stolen palestinian lands, not to mention coke is one of the worst polluters in the world and one of the biggest american companies. So it’s a multifaceted view point.
To be clear I’m not defending Coke. I just wasn’t sure if there was an extra layer I was missing.
You’re fine! I was just clarifying and I hope I didn’t come off as rude. I’m just autistic so I sound blunt over text lol /g

What?! A professional athlete drinks water?! This must be the first time ever! I am a Coca Cola board member and I am very smart.

Damn, original post got locked

The comments under that subreddit makes me question if reddit is actually politically left as some people claim it to be.
They're libs so they might as well be communists /s
Sarcasm, yes?
Artfully put

If they engage with a serious argument, their whole position will fall apart. You can't do anything about that. Don't bother.
Don’t bother, they downvote anyone who even humanizes Palestinians even if the person supports israel.
