Yellow bananas can also be bad, when it comes to college admissions.

Soylent is green. And human.

😂 the green party is now "the soylent green party" to me. Thanks!

Clearly, to be anti-racist, true allyship means one must cut out water entirely. This will be purifying for the soul, and, after a week or so, for the German body politic.

There's a brilliant Matt cartoon with an old couple visiting a UK National Trust garden with the caption "apparently this tree is very old and probably racist" https://x.com/MattCartoonist/status/1326221395458740225

Hmm ... Were it not for the blue sky there would be no green, no food for Edeka to sell.

Because God supports AfD.

"WHY is the sky so racist!?"

Because it was assigned blue at birth.

Simply EVERYONE knows this. DO try to keep up, dear fellow.

As the ex-owner of several natural foods grocery stores in the US and a staunch conservative, I never spoke about politics as I never wanted to lose a customer who disagreed with my politics.

Businesses that play this game of being woke lose a large group of potential customers. Idiots!

Unfortunately some of them in official positions are dead serious. They actually believe folks who make fun of them should be fined or incarcerated.

Expand full comment

Exactly.

The situation is catastrophic...but not serious.

Perhaps it should be also mentioned that Edeka itself has a dark colonial history, as it «was founded in 1907 as the E.d.K. (Einkaufsgenossenschaft der Kolonialwarenhändler im Halleschen Torbezirk zu Berlin, Purchasing Cooperative of Colonial Goods Retailers in the Hallesches Tor district of Berlin)» (from pedowikia).

j/k, but who remembers what «colonial goods» were?

uh oh our Detective Rat comes up with even worse dirt on the blues... Great job that.

Interesting; did these colonialists have supply contracts with men habitually clad in grey-blue in the late 1930s - early 1940s by any chance? I think we should be told.

Fascism, or corporatism, on display unironically calling a political party out for supposed fascism. I hope the Germans can see through all the projection.

Expand full comment

Would love to observe the store entrances to see who still shops there.

Though I’m sure many of their customers wouldn’t even get what’s going on 😒

Expand full comment

Most don't care. I see all sorts of stupid shit like this in the lefty food co-op in my neighborhood and I just let it go. Perhaps we should become more vigilant.

Expand full comment

Mine doubled down in 2020. That’s when I said goodbye after almost 20 years of membership. It was an adjustment but there was no sense in financially supporting them or similar local businesses. Much happier now and actually saved a lot by walking away and shopping elsewhere.

Yes, we should!

The best line in the whole ad is "Because we love diversity"!! They say this after telling you that they hate 30% of their customers and call them a threat! HAHAHAHA.

Buncha morons...

This is the most insanely, childishly ridiculous step of all the ridiculous steps over the past few years. A psychological autopsy would come up with nothing good.

A brain autopsy would come up with nothing. 😉

See the top rated comment on last week's article on the green propaganda video game. I about spit my coffee into my keyboard.

It cracked me up because as I was reading the premise and details of the game, I thought that not one gamer I know would even give it a second look. These kinds of games have to appeal to high-testosterone young males that make up 90% gaming market. Their reaction would be exactly that.

They may say: "GEIL !!!"

How do you say “retarded” in German?

"bescheuert" is probably the best approximation.

Hmmm, I thought it would have been "sleepyjoebidenisgay", but my German is rusty, being a 3rd generation immigrant in America.

I suspect 'Little Napoleon' Macron would agree.

In my young years when I read movie reviews with great seriousness, I was always troubled that I couldn't grasp the wonderfulness of the nouvelle vague and kept having these awful peasant suspicions that French movies after, say, 1950 were absolute total crap.

Ah. You noticed. Surely the very definition of French - potentially brilliant, but not always. A bit like being British (that's me!).

I used to love the UK so much. Home of my most beloved friends. Producer of Marmite and blackcurrant pastilles. A glorious people who have allowed themselves to be brought so low...

No they're on their 2nd vaccine card.

They're "up to mutate".

Well I think eugyppius put it perfectly:

Vaccinators.

But a fool is a fool...mutations or not.

These vaccinated fools cause a hell of a LOT of damage. Just consider that currently there is German made weaponry being used ON Russian territory again ...👎👎👎👎😲😲😲😲

Hopefully, vaccinated, foolish vaccinators will be of temporary nuisance only ...🤞🤞🤞

Eugyppius, this is so patronising. I’d be inclined to boycott them.

I fear the supermarket will not notice since they are not running the business in a conventional way. They are only using blue as a marker. Difficult times.

Then I’d do it for my own personal satisfaction.
