Unexpected, nice job Ben & Jerry's, better late than never I guess

Unilever just fired the CEO of Ben and Jerry's for "social media activism" (criticizing 47). Ben and Jerry's has been suing Unilever for violating their agreement when they sold the company to them, since social activism is part of the B&J brand and was supposed to be permitted.

There is no B&J boycott right now, but Unilever might end up with one. (In the meantime, I bet they do a big B&J sale to say their sales are up.)

Hey there, everybody, I hope you're all having a Happy Thanksgiving! Just be mindful, though, that there are companies that - despite massive evidence of Russia's war crimes - continue to do business in Russia, including Subway, PepsiCo and Unilever.

Ben & Jerry’s corporate employees hold protest walkout

SOUTH BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - Employees at Ben & Jerry’s corporate headquarters in South Burlington held a walkout Wednesday afternoon to protest recent actions by Unilever, its parent company.

Over 40 employees held a silent protest in support of independence from the global conglomerate in pursuing the company’s progressive social mission. It comes after Unilever last week fired Ben & Jerry’s CEO Dave Stever.

Ben & Jerry’s independent board of directors sued Unilever in November over what they say were efforts to gag the company’s pro-Palestian activism.

Unilever faces a tough challenge selling its plant-based meat brand, The Vegetarian Butcher, as consumer interest in meat alternatives fades. Once seen as a booming market, plant-based meat sales have declined amid growing concerns over ultra-processed foods.

Industry experts say Unilever may struggle to attract buyers, especially as the brand remains unprofitable, generating only €50 million annually. While meat producers looking to diversify may show interest, a high valuation seems unlikely. Similar struggles hit Nestlé, which scaled back its plant-based offerings. With market sales projected to drop further, the plant-based meat industry is at a crossroads.

Ultra-processed food producers are key actors in a complex global network of influence groups where they exert disproportionate power on global food policy and nutrition policy, according to a new paper.

Does Unilever support Israel? If so I gotta stop supporting it, please let me know if somebody knows, it's urgent, I can't contribute in this genocide

Smart strategy. GREAT pun.

Axe has hired Lil Baby to help promote a 'Logne Forgiveness program.

"AXE fans simply need to drop their Cash App $cashtag in the comments on our 'Logne Forgiveness TikTok posts for a chance to win their $150 refund… to help refund the cost of their old cologne."

It's a punny way to give guys permission to wear a fragrance that doesn't cost fifty bucks from a department store. Axe claims their new "Fine Fragrance Collection" scents are "formulated to smell as fresh as a premium cologne."

As Lil Baby says completely on his own and not at all written by the PR agency in a Source piece: “Y’all can smell just as fine with the new AXE and keep building your cash in the meantime. That’s how you do it when you’re the GOAT.”

Shell and Unilever are still operating in Russia.

Two of Britain’s biggest companies have been blasted for continuing to operate in Russia after it invaded Ukraine. Despite an exodus of firms after the war began last February, oil giant Shell is still trading Russian gas a year after promising to pull out of the country’s energy market. And Dove soap and Cornetto maker Unilever has been labelled an ‘international sponsor of war’ by the Ukrainian government as it continues to sell food and hygiene products in Russia. The broadside marked a difficult start for boss Hein Schumacher, who took over at the weekend. Campaigners at the Moral Rating Agency (MRA), which pushes for companies to exit the Russian market, have called on Schumacher to ‘do the moral thing’ and pull the business out of the country.

‘A Cornetto ice cream seems innocuous until you realise that millions of them being sold each day can quickly pay for the launch of a missile,’ said MRA founder Mark Dixon. ‘Likewise, a bar of Dove soap starts to look pretty dirty when there are enough of them being produced to purchase a Russian tank.’

[ ... ]

Shell, meanwhile, has been accused by Ukrainian officials of accepting ‘blood money’ by continuing to deal in Russian energy. It is shipping Russian gas through a deal with Novatek, Russia’s second-largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) firm, which compels it to buy 900,000 tonnes per year from the Yamal Peninsula in Siberia.

If you are interested in boycotting, Shell is largely unambiguous about its products. However Unilever owns hundreds of brands. This graphic is probably incomplete.

Shell and Unilever are financing Russian terrorist acts like these.

4 people dead, 34 wounded, 50 cars destroyed and 30 houses damaged: aftermath of Russian strike on Lviv

These are intentional acts of terrorism against civilians; such atrocities take place almost every day. The number of casualties caused by Vladimir Putin and his fellow Kremlin war criminals would have made Osama bin Laden envious.

Frankly, Putin should be regarded the way bin Laden was and should not be normalized. Western companies have had plenty of time to notice what is going on and leave Russia.

BTW, this is not the first time Shell Oil has been chummy with genocidal dictators...
