Quote HistoryQuoted: This is not a black and white world and your delusional if you believe. If you only have anything to do with people that completely agree with you on every subject it’s going to be just you. Keep up the virtue signaling though. Well I buy Jose’s coffee at Costco, and don’t know their politics. If I bought BRCC coffee because of their marketing I’d care about their politics. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: You must have been on OJs jury Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Apparently we do, but that still doesn’t mean I’m upset about it. I try to make the most rational decisions that I can, so if I see some real evidence (not circumstantial) that he’s antigun and just using us as a cash cow I’ll be as outraged as the rest of you, but we aren’t there yet. Absence of proof is not proof of absence, or something. -Corporate speak release, putting distance between themselves and controversy. -Then pulling ad revenue because of mob outrage. -Then backpedaling on the pulling of ad revenue because of large scale cancellations by core customers. -More vague corporate speak backpedaling. -Proof that their corporate speak is bullshit when it came to light that they do support the right to self defense if they decide who gets the support. -Dubious campaign contributions coming to light. -Proof that corporate officers were cozying up to Hillary coming to light. Ok, they bungled this mess and handled it poorly.......that happens nowadays, with the speed of the internet and social media. They could have cleaned it up better with some strong statements to their core customer base, but that didn’t happen either. Ok, that’s not great, but maybe they could still have salvaged things.......but then everything else came to light. It can be hard for people to accept that the lifestyle brand that they bought into isn’t what they thought it was. Never meet your heroes, or something. So while they may not be “anti-gun” it sure doesn’t look like they’re staunchly Pro-2A either. Which is sad, when they cater and pander to the 2A demographic on the front end, but on the back end help support enemies of the 2A in some way. “Bruh. You like guns? We like guns too! You like veterans? We are veterans! You like explosions and titties in marketing? Watch our videos, we have explosions and titties! Bruh, we sell coffee with cool names like AK47, you should totally buy some, we are just like you!” So GD buys their coffee. Turns out, they aren’t quite as like GD as GD thought. Whatever. I’m not arguing innocence, I’m saying I want more evidence. The situation has been handled poorly, no doubt. You must have been on OJs jury  |

Is it just me, or does anyone else get a laugh out of the MyPillow Guy, and Ricky telling the left to get bit, and they stand their ground like real men.. I mean, have these guys been vetted at all, any tribal tats between them, beards, what weights can they bench, any time on boat teams, specops, heck what expertise level on call-of-duty
I asked BRCC when their next video is launching and if their cartoon characters will stand up to the left this time... I got a canned response |

Quote HistoryQuoted: We do this shit every few months because every few months we keep getting the Judas Kiss from "industry partners" who want to make a buck off marketing and people who will buy stuff because of the name. HOW is their coffee worth more than any other "boutique" coffee brand? Their special aura is in name only. Gun owners keep getting stabbed in the back by companies looking to exploit a very loyal bunch of customers who have discretionary income they spend on causes they support. How does BRCC become a "Tier One" brand in the gun community, that is beyond me. They're a coffee company and have created a "lifestyle" brand that so many suckers bought into. Catchy phrases of liberty and Americana on their t-shirts, marketing their company, and bam, they're up there with actual gun companies, not some fru-fru drink company. In the end, their politics suck and I won't buy their products EVER. I am 100% behind anyone saying fuck BRCC. Vote with your wallet. Tell all your friends. What I do not like and what hurts our side is when it becomes "If you don't hate BRCC too then you support them and you are my enemy" Every time this shit happens we see that. Its happening right now all over social media. |

I find it very difficult to believe that the CEO of BRCC is left leaning. The man grew up in an ultra conservative part of the country and has a military background where he would have witnessed first hand destructive socialist policies and the dangers of identity politics (i.e. tribalism). His company's success is due in large part to conservative organizations and culture. So, I haven't read through every post here, but this is most likely another case of AR15.com members hating everything and everyone.

Quote HistoryQuoted: The skinny jean hipster look did not inspire confidence that these were die hard gun guys. I just never got the gun guy vibe from BRCC. Initially, during the dark days/weeks/months/years of the Obummer Presidency, BRCC ads on Facebook were a bit refreshing. But, the one guy had that skinny-pants hipster look (which is appalling). Looking back, to me, it seems they were just looking to exploit a market of people who were constantly being bashed by the left. What are you trying to say? Gun owners/veterans/conservatives can’t be skinny pants wearing hipster looking? Not everybody is a redneck fatass. |

Yeah. He just went from possibly being able to defuse the situation with some kind of explanation for those donations to being caught red handed in a lie. I really thought they would hunker down and let this blow over. Lose a few customers and it would be fine in a month. Instead we are seeing a guy that is going to cost his company a whole lot of money because he is not smart enough to put his phone down. Way this is going it would not surprise me to see Hafer step down from the CEO position. |
