What’s woke coffee? Every coffee joint I can think of, diners and artisanal shops excluded, are the union bustingest, republican donatingest, fair weather friends in the world.
Starbucks goes pretty left. Shops generally speaking idk i think you’re right…now the roasters, the bean brokers, the plantations…I’ve seen bits of left ideology here & there. The main thing I care about is: can you make a good bean? Does it taste good? There was one bean out of Africa, had all this FairTrade feel-good stuff behind it. Tasted a cup of the brew & I’m like…pack it up, boys. This isn’t even good coffee. ¯\(°_o)/¯
Oh idk about all of that. I don’t go to Char bucks unless I have to. I do know this: holy shit they have some good benefits for their employees. I think they pay well for schooling, and I know for a fact a young man quit his job at a lumberyard to become a Starbucks barista. Why? Among other things, to get good healthcare for his entire fucking family. By being a Starbucks barista!
…it doesn’t really make sense to me, either, but he did what he had to do & seemed generally happy with the arrangement.

Black Rifle coffee, I’m assuming. The American coffee with guns on the cans.
Caffienated coffee should be woke 😂

Starbucks is the poster boy for saying one thing and doing another. Their marketing and damage control cost less than accepting employee demands.
