Starbucks suddenly finds itself in the hospitality business in the wake of the embarrassing PR nightmare in which two black men were denied the use of a bathroom and later arrested by police while waiting for an associate in a Philadelphia location.




https://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/hgjhghg_0_1.jpg


Now, thanks to a new policy announced by executive chairman Howard Schultz at the Atlantic Council on Thursday, any and all who wish to unburden themselves or simply take an invigorating sink shower at any of Starbucks' nearly 27,000 locations - whether they are paying customers or not - can make use of Starbucks' repenting facilities.



While Schultz told the audience "we don't want to become a public restroom," he added "But we're going to make the right decision a hundred percent of the time and give people the key, because we don't want anyone at Starbucks to feel as if we are not giving access to you to the bathroom because you are 'less than. 'We want you to be 'more than.'"



In short, Starbucks is now America's largest public restroom.



As Schultz unveiled his business mode pivot, he told the audience that the world is “questioning the moral leadership of America” and, ironically, urged the public to reject nationalism.



“The aspiration was to build a different kind of company, a company that would achieve the balance between profit and conscience, a company that would demonstrate that not every decision is an economic one, a company that would demonstrate success is best when it's shared,” he said.



Schultz continued, “This is a time, as we face this crucible, for cooperation. This is not a time to build walls. This is a time to build bridges. Over the course of the last year, I wanted to do a number of things that would give me exposure to the human condition here at home and abroad. I wanted to understand the opioid crisis. I wanted to go to the southern border in Texas and understand the immigration issues. I wanted to go to Gettysburg and I wanted to go to Normandy.”



In the afternoon, Schultz participated in a discussion on “The Role and Responsibility of a Global Company,” in which he addressed the controversy surrounding the arrest of two African-American men inside of a Starbucks store in Philadelphia.




“Our stores are not public bathrooms, but they’re used as such. In this particular case, two African-American gentlemen came in the store – like millions of other people – to sit down and have a meeting and one of them asked to go to the bathroom and we have kind of a loose policy around you should be able to use the bathroom if you buy something and it’s really the judgment of the manager. And in this particular case, she asked the gentleman: Are you a customer? And he said, no. And they go into a conversation and one thing led to another, and she made a terrible decision to call the police,” Schultz recalled, in the context of Schultz virtue (or perhaps virtually) signaling the rejecting nationalism.



Video of the Philadelphia arrest went viral, sparking public outcry against the coffeemaker along with accusations of racism.




@Starbucks (https://twitter.com/Starbucks?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) The police were called because these men hadn’t ordered anything. They were waiting for a friend to show up, who did as they were taken out in handcuffs for doing nothing. All the other white ppl are wondering why it’s never happened to us when we do the same thing. pic.twitter.com/0U4Pzs55Ci (https://t.co/0U4Pzs55Ci)

In the aftermath of the incident, the manager who called the police was fired, and each of the two men settled with the city for $1 each and the promise of a $200,000 young entrepreneur program organized by local officials.


In addition to the bathroom policy, Starbucks will be closing more than 8,000 U.S. shops on May 29 to train nearly 175,000 employees in "racial bias education."



“I’ve spent the last few days in Philadelphia with my leadership team listening to the community, learning what we did wrong and the steps we need to take to fix it,” said Starbucks ceo Kevin Johnson in an April statement (https://news.starbucks.com/press-releases/starbucks-to-close-stores-nationwide-for-racial-bias-education-may-29). “While this is not limited to Starbucks, we’re committed to being a part of the solution. Closing our stores for racial bias training is just one step in a journey that requires dedication from every level of our company and partnerships in our local communities.”


COO Rosalind Brewer, a black woman, told NPR that the incident was "a teachable moment for all of us," saying that as an African American executive who has a 23-year-old son, she found the viral videos of the incident painful to watch.

“It would be easy for us to say that this was a one-employee situation, but I have to tell you, it’s time for us to, myself included, take personal responsibility here and do the best that we can to make sure we do everything we can”


In this case, "everything we can" means all Starbucks bathrooms are now open

Then why even bother locking the restroom doors??

Use the Kinko's Approach to dissuading people from using the restroom (I know this to be true from personal experience at the more than one Kinko's location!)

Holding pee leads to a serious medical condition


https://theseinfelddictionary.com/2010/07/10/uromysitisis-poisoning/
uromysitisis poisoning

uromysitisis poisoning – (related terms: urinator) 1. a very serious urinating condition one has no control over 2. especially while in parking garages 3. Doctors recommend that one just relieve themselves or death is a possibility 4. quote: “Do you think I enjoy living like this?…the shame, the humiliation…You know I have been issued a public urination pass by the city because of my condition”

I suggest people who fear this condition need to apply to the municipality for a public urination pass.

nypost.com: Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz blames Dem-run cities for store closures (https://nypost.com/2022/07/18/starbucks-ceo-howard-schultz-blames-democrat-run-cities-for-store-closures/)

July 18, 2022
Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz said Democratic mayors and city councils have “abdicated their responsibility” in fighting crime and addressing mental illness, which has forced his company to shutter stores due to fears over employee safety.

Schultz made the comments in leaked video that was posted to Twitter over the weekend by Ari Hoffman of KVI-AM talk radio based in Seattle.

Last week, Starbucks announced it was closing 16 restaurants in various cities across the country due to what the company said was employee complaints of drug use and violent crime on the premises.

Schultz said he believes the Seattle-based coffee chain will have to close “many more” locations.

“This is just the beginning,” said the interim chief executive...

Schultz said he was “shocked” to hear from employees that “one of the primary concerns that our retail partners [baristas] have is their own personal safety.”

“And then we heard about the stories that go along with it about what happens in our bathrooms,” Schultz said.

When jews complain about negro infestation in the inner cities, grab some popcorn. Don't help the jews out. The jews ruined the inner cities with their jewish-black alliance. Don't clean that for the jews with Republican "Law and Order"/more statism.

Watch the videos on the slaughter of cities by E Michael Jones. Jews used blacks to have whites flee the cities by the tens of millions because ethnic white catholics were getting too strong politically. They were replacing the jews in power positions. The jews want you to solve their negro infestation problems with voting Republican. This gets you part of the jewish Hegelian dialect. Don't do anything, sit back and enjoy the show of jews suffering from blacks they released on the cities. The jews don't regret it, releasing blacks into the inner cities is why Jews had political power for 70 years. Educate others about how the jews caused this. And don't vote Republican to clean the jews messes. The worse it gets, the more blame on the jews, the more chance that the jews and blacks are blamed for the messes of the past 60 years by voters. And don't forget to blame the cia and wasp Rockefeller who used blacks to defeat ethnic white immigrant minorities of the 1950s. Used MLK on whites to destroy ethnic European competition. The jew wants you to simply blame Democrats and vote Republican, that is a jewish winning strategy. E Michael Jones speaks of how the jews invent these Frankenstein and golems that are used against the goyim and eventually these attack jewish stability and power. The jews want you to be on their team defeating "Democrats", blaming "Democrats", saving the Jew from jew invented Frankensteins - negros in the inner cities. Expose the Jewish-black alliance and don't clean the mess of jews.

You do realize that the jew founder of the black panthers - David Horowitz became a neo-con, then became a Trumper. David Horowitz stopped being a communist negro promoter once the negros turned on the jews. And whites again and again save the jews from their Frankensteins. Expose the jews and negros in the inner cities, expose the Rockefeller/Kissinger backers of the cia who hate good men who are politically powerful. They shut down GIM1 because that was the new white city of freedom to destroy the cia zio-empire. Jews sent Sarah Palin as your leader to have you attack Democrats and vote Republican. It is the same thing with this Jew Startbucks millionaire, save the jews by voting Republican. I would rather hand out popcorn and watch the jewish golems make misery for the jews. And education is the key, once the masses learn that the jews and cia shipped these negros into the inner cities to stay in political power, the cia and jew system would collapse. Voting Republican prevents the collapse of the jews.

When the Bernie Bros and Sanders socialists demand to eat the rich and things get out of control to the Oligarchs, Oligarchs are rescued by fox new watchers to save the deepstate from poor transdrag queens taking over the political narrative.

Don't save the deepstate, blame degeneracy on the jews as E Michael Jones does, let them sleep in the bed they made with Soros and Sanders and AOC, which the Oligarchs hate the Bernie Bros. CNN hates Bernie Bros, supports and pushed for Biden.

Things get interesting when the drag queen supporting public throws off jewish masters and literally eats the Oligarchs. People will flock to sanity and truth, and don't let the Hegelian Dialect work of Republican vs Democrats, free the people from the two jew party system.

The back and forth between fox news and cnn plays into the hands of the deepstate. Republican voters are the problem in defeating the deepstate.

CNN: "Liberals are positioned to take away guns and freedom of speech to say nigger... wait... we have a problem... Bernie Bros are eating the rich Oligarchs... Help us Faux News... save the deepstate"
Faux News: "We distort, we decide signing in... we'll save you CNN... saving the deepstate... viewers, the problem is Soros and woke anti-capitalist anti-jewish monopoly socialists... get out there and vote and take back America (for the jews)... now that we are in command... Patriot Act 4.0... Pre-crime statism... "Law and Order"... wait there are jew haters taking over the Republican Party... save us CNN/neo-liberalism"
CNN: "Yes, those dastardly Republicans hate what Washington stand for and that is zionism. Liberals are here to take away your guns again and have censorship on the internet and wait.. on no its the bernie bros again... eating the rich... save us Faux News"
Faux News: "Faux New reporting... taking back Murica! Liberals hate Murica! First we are having camera on the streets to survail you... and less pay and more money for wall street and some wars for Israel and bitcoin... oh no... it is the Ron Paul supporters back demanding real libertarianism gold and silver... save us CNN"
CNN: "CNN back in command. Doesn't this two party state work out for the Oligarchs. Play the masses like a fiddle. When ever a political movement gets out of hand... the jews sure know how to shut it down and switch to the other party. The jews deserve every shekel they earn. The masses are filled with retards. This is CNN...."

The jew founder of the Black Panthers is a Trump Propagandist. As E Michael Jones stated, once cia, you never leave the cia. The jew founder of the Black Panthers wants you voting for trump and Republicans because the jews are aware that Democrats are the boggieman to get you voting Republican. Don't fall for the trap, grab popcorn and enjoy the shitshow. Educate others on the cia, blacks, jews while the inner cities burn from negros and stop blaming Democrats.

Jews sent jobs to China to keep white Americans from becoming too powerful economically and thus politically. This was the case in Europe too, have Europe import goods from China by record numbers every year.

Europe with their larger population, was going to have a permantly higher gdp and vastly superior export economy compared to the US.

China was the release valve or cooling rods to keep this from happening. Send the jobs to China, make US economic numbers over Europe.

Europe would have rivaled the cia and Washington. If you listen to E Michael Jones, this was a nightmare scenario for Kissinger and the Jew-Rockefeller partnership.

The goal was to fatten China and then slaughter it. Trump was the candidate to slaughter the Chinese to loot China of wealth of 40 years of jobs and wealth being sent to China.

The suffering of whites was in vain if the jew plan succeeds. What you want is a cold war of US vs China, same as non-jew controlled USSR vs US.

The Soviet Union from the 60s onward went rogue, went anti-zionist, the jews lost control of Moscow. There was a real rival of the bankers in Moscow.

With Xi seeking China to be a global economic empire, the Chinese are breaking from control of the Rothschild handlers. Trump is there to destroy it for Rothschild.

And the Chinese are super evil, they are cheering for dead bodies of whites, the Jew Putin is their god-man to kill whitey. They hate NATO European countries and want their jew boy Putin to nuke Europe.

Nigs are also big into Putin, cheering for dead white Europeans in this banker war. Putin to nigs is the killer of whitey.

So the chinks are super evil. I would not care if China gets bombed. However Jews win in a China war. The Jews empowered the Chinese economically to keep down whitey, let the Jews sleep in the bed with a China without handlers, except Jew Putin.

Notice how the war on China is over cia schemes: did you know that the cia were radicalizing the Turks in Xinjiang to break away from China. The same with Hong Kongers. And that the cia was behind the coronavirUS to blame China.

The war with China is not against their oppressive regime of a surveillance state of camera anywhere, social credit system, totalitarianism, animal-human hybrids in chinese labs, transhumanism... because these are the goals of the jew for you.

Grab popcorn when the jews whine about China. Grab popcorn when China crashes and burns. The Soviet Union was an evil empire, however compared to jews - it was a good place, it went rogue in the 60s and became a true rival of jews and zionism. Its collapse was not good for freedom. For now China is much like the Soviet Union. China is a sell out, so if it crashes in a war, the Chinks deserve it.

The jews controlled the Soviet Union with Lenin, Stalin and others. Then the USSR turned against Israel:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_anti-Zionism

and it was not Putinesque with Jews controlling the opposition, the plot to destroy the rogue Soviet Union was real.

What you dont see from Jew Putin:

http://ronnie-melton.weebly.com/26-the-jewish-question-continued-communism-and-anti-zionism.html

Political cartoons attacking Jews as nazis with dollars feeding jew babies. The Soviets were real antsemites, jailed criminals jews, who were let loose by US demands of openness. These jews became the Russian mafia which Putin and Trump are connected to.

The latter Soviet Union were hardcore antisemites. Jew Putin is a fraud, Netanyahu campaigned on friendship with Putin. The Soviet Union did not have relations with the zionist regime of Israel for decades. Unlike Jew Putin.

Putin is not trying to fool you. Putin is openly allied with Chabad Jews.

Remember GIM1, where we would show pictures of jews in the oval office with Bush, those were Chabad Jews.

Chabad Jews are highly linked to the Bush cia. Highly linked to mossad. These Jews of George W Bush are the Jewish group that run the Russian economy, says Jews. Putins rabbi is one of these Jews. Who works closely with Israel.

It is totally obvious that Jew born Putin is working for the zionists. I am not sure you can call Putin controlled opposition after this Banker War, Putin is out of the closet as a Jew jewing whites.

Expect jews to chimp out for goyim not going along with the plan. Jews want statism to clean mess of negros in the inner cities, to be used against whitey. Jews want to destroy the Chinese economic empire for more statism and no rivals. When the jews have no rivals, there is not anything to combat jews. So jews want to take out rivals - Iraq, Syria, Libya, Iran, China, white successful EU, China.

A shlomo plan to ruin Europe with fags and negros, and a shlomo plan with Putin to destroy the economy of rich European whites. A shlomo plan to ship negros into the inner cities as described by E Michael Jones. And a zio plan to save starbucks and other zio-enterprises while making whites suffer and negros promoted.
