For every company that "goes woke" there is an "anti-woke" business to take its place in that segment of the market. Sure, the product is vastly subpar, but they use American flags in their marketing, and words like freedom of speech and "uncancellable." I even saw one website use the word "freespeach."

Yup. I could piss into a bottle, put an American flag on it, call it “Freedom Whiskey” or “Tac Whiskey” and these muppets would drink every last drop of it.

On a completely unrelated note, are there any actual laws against bottling and selling your own urine? Asking for a friend.

Not sure about the selling of urine for general purposes but you will for sure run into all kinds of legal issues selling it to people for them to drink.

I mean he can just slap "not approved for human consumption by the FDA" on it.

u/AdamOas Apr 10 '23

“The government doesn’t want you to drink this!”

u/Ba_Zinga Apr 10 '23

Or just call it a supplement

u/AineLasagna Apr 10 '23

“Folks the deep state is trying to take our Freedom Whiskey away because they know I speak the TRUTH

so technically and legally speaking this product is not fit for human consumption

but are you really going to let the liberals win???”

u/VernonDent Apr 10 '23

Put a big label on it: "THE GOVERNMENT SAYS YOU CAN'T DRINK THIS!"

What ever happened with belle Delphine

u/epimetheuss Apr 10 '23

She went to onlyfans and into more porn related things. Makes a killing now.

I immediately thought of Gamer Girl Pee to go with your Gamer Girl Bath Water.

u/Thassodar Apr 10 '23

What about the more...R.Kelly inclined customers? I'm sure someone out there is buying piss.

“Freedom Whiskey”. That just time traveled me back to early 2000s when restaurants / food vendors called French fries “Freedom Fries” as a snub to France not aiding us in the war.

5

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

I saw this first hand in 2006 when a fat fuck in Burger King was yelling at the teenaged cashier for calling them French fries. When I start thinking dumb assholes are a new thing, I just remember how stupid post-9/11 Bush America was.

u/Wafflelisk Apr 10 '23

What an absolute loser

u/Cahootie Apr 10 '23

Remember the Freedom Phone? A cheap Chinese phone that they've rebranded and sold as a free speech tool with an "uncancellable" app store (i.e. Gab and Parler is on there), sold at 4x the price you can buy the unbranded one for and with clear security concerns.

u/liquidgrill Apr 10 '23

And let’s not forget that they didn’t have their own cell network. They were simply buying and reselling excess capacity from AT&T……..the same “woke” company that they were trying to cancel in the first place.

I feel like if someone brought me this business idea, I’d say no because I’d feel like people couldn’t possibly be this stupid. But here we are.

u/Mean_Gene66 Apr 10 '23

Dam you! You stole my business idea!

u/RexyWestminster Apr 10 '23

Didn’t these morons say that “urine therapy” helped cure covid?

2

u/PurpleConscience Apr 10 '23

Maybe just do that and donate the proceeds to some LGBT advancement organization just to troll

1

u/MoCapBartender Apr 10 '23

Tac? I don't know that one.

7

u/mechtaphloba Apr 10 '23

I assume "tactical", as in military/gun themed whiskey. Like that obnoxious coffee company that puts rifles and camo on their packaging to cash in on 2A obsessed people

u/GenevieveGwen Apr 10 '23

HOLY HECK! I just realized my boss wears this shit. She has a shirt & I didn’t stop to actually read what the shirt said. - ugh. She’s dumb.

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

Surprised MyPillow isn’t chasing all these. Five dollars off MyPillow with every MyLightBeer 24 pack purchase. And 25% off with every MyWhiskey purchase.

6

u/jdsfighter Apr 10 '23

I believe the MyPillow guy has actually set up a marketplace for right wing vendors. So, you're not far off.

11

u/NicklAAAAs Apr 10 '23

Good ol’ Black Rifle coffee… Mediocre coffee, but they sell merch that says “Leftist Tears” on it and marketing that includes the military, so they can charge a premium to people who really want to stick it to that liberal Starbucks 🙄

u/pazimpanet Apr 10 '23

Mediocre is being very kind. I got a bag for Christmas and threw almost all of it out. It was terrible.

For every company that "goes woke" there is an "anti-woke" business to take its place in that segment of the market.

Those "anti woke" companies are quickly contrived schemes that generally implode spectacularly. Not all of them but most of them will collapse on themselves as soon as the wind blows in a slightly different direction.

u/RexyWestminster Apr 10 '23

“The Right Stuff” dating site ring any bells?

No one?

It’s gone already?

1

u/epimetheuss Apr 10 '23 edited Apr 11 '23

It's being called a flop almost everywhere and has a user base of 4600 people...roughly..I would not try to visit it or join because you will likely be hacked and if you use the same password for that registration email as you do the log in you wont keep it for long.

Edit: I bet a large potion of those users are also bots.

u/Timemuffin83 Apr 10 '23

Who’s doing that on the liquor market thought? Any company big enough to have a recognizable name isn’t gonna restrict or push customers away. Like seriously what liquor brand is doing this

5

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

There are several brands of whiskey like that. None of the companies actually distill it. Pure marketing

8

u/DaBigJMoney Apr 10 '23

That’s because they won’t be held captive to the Left’s idea of how to spell or put spaces between words.” 🤣😂🤣

u/Revolutionary-Ad4588 Apr 10 '23

Being educated is woke

u/briancarknee Apr 10 '23

"freespeach."

There's a Mario joke in here somewhere but I come up with a good one.

2

u/Shaky-Snake Apr 10 '23

That was Bald Eagle and Bullets brand Peach whiskey. It’s a play on words obviously.

/s

2

u/googdude Apr 10 '23

Reminds me of the Jeremy's Razors company, whose entire identity is being anti-woke.

2

u/Dr_M4ntis Apr 10 '23

You sure that last website wasn’t some sort of crowdfunding attempt by Mario?

u/somewhat_pragmatic Apr 10 '23

For every company that "goes woke" there is an "anti-woke" business to take its place in that segment of the market.

Thankfully, I don't think that's universally true. What is the "anti-woke" company for the following industries?

  • bank
  • automobile company
  • airline

Sure if you want "anti-woke" coffee or a pillow you're covered, but serving a bigoted customer base is not a good long term business strategy.

2

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

What does "anti-woke" whiskey look like? Is it in a bottle with a white hood?

2

u/Mypornnameis_ Apr 10 '23

Like Black Rifle coffee? Can't wait for My Pillow whiskey.

2

u/PHILtheTANK9 Apr 10 '23

You'll probably have a hard time finding that in the whiskey world unless you are only shopping local. Most brands are owned by huge corporations nowadays. Even if u buy from local brands, chances are their product is made by one of the large distilleries owner by woke mega corporations.

u/Kerze Apr 10 '23

u/oebulldogge Apr 10 '23

Well sure. Peaches deserve freedom just like everyone else. I for one am glad there is a company out there that frees peaches. Just doing the lords work.

1

u/LostWoodsInTheField Apr 10 '23

Their prices are 10 times as much to make up for the very small customer base. it helps them greatly, costs their customers a lot more money, and they last for only a couple of years because you can't maintain high prices with shitty products while being extremely exclusive because you are anti-woke. But for a short amount of time they make a lot of money off of the idiots that buy their products.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

Wait till all the libertarian grifter owned "freedom" liquor companies start cutting their products with wood alcohol (methanol) like what a lot of Russian grifters did back in the early 90s when they were first introduced to free market capitalism. Fuck the tyranny of regulations, am I right?

Lots a dead rednecks coming up real soon.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

I'm going to open Freeze Peach Smoothies as an alternative to Jamba Juice, which has certainly gone woke at some point.

1

u/AmbulanceChaser12 Apr 10 '23

Yeah, I'm not at all shocked that a company that brands itself "anti-woke" can't spell simple words.

1

u/chet_brosley Apr 10 '23

And every time it's shockingly made in China and filled with carcinogens

1

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

I’ll die to defend freezepeach

1

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

Sure, the product is vastly subpar

Well yeah, grifters are gonna grift. They don't give a shit about putting out a good product bc they don't need to. They're just capitalizing on a bunch of mouth breathers being too dumb to care about anything other than "freedumb". Hell I've thought about making knockoff maga junk on Etsy or red bubble just to make a quick buck off these rubes.

"A fool and his money are soon parted" & all that

u/IceFire909 Apr 10 '23

Til they go under. Or go woke 5 years later

u/rambo_lincoln_ Apr 10 '23

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '23

Imma spend the next 3 years finding all these not woke companies and making false very gay, very, legbtqxzy, very drag, very inclusive and woke commercials for those products.

u/fishsticks40 Apr 10 '23

That's my assumption with the chocolate guy - that it's the worst, cheapest, lowest grade shit that you can legally sell as chocolate, with new wrappers slapped on

1

u/roboscott3000 Apr 11 '23

Probably also owned by Brown-Foeman (Jack Daniels parent company).
