Get woke,go broke.
Not only did Starbucks have to pay the "undisclosed sum" to the two black men, now the $26.6 million dollars because they felt the need to show to everyone "we fired a white person because of this incident , not that they had anything to do with it".
They fired her because she was a white scape goat.
She wasn't even evolved but the manager of the store that actually called the cops was black and didn't get punished at all.
So glad that the protesters got that lady a paycheck for life. Got to love you Americans. Uh oh, better becareful, you might come after me and cancel me. Lol
The problem is Tricks and prostitution out of hand in Philly and the District manager attempting to use men to pull tricks liek it's Canada in the USA. The fault is of the accuser…often not starbucks but could be inside the first responders. Staged issues inside a business is often to cause the business harm. There's nothing Starbucks needs to pay, the city must have strategic bathrooms that are public and open to the general public when the population is high. Neither gentleman can get paid for tricks or public prostitution in a city fraught with drug addicts. The black district manager may not be a district manager most coffee is from private farms in the USA, South America and Spanish speaking countries.
starbucks sucks expensive nasty coffe from the toilet.
Starbucks lose lose lose everywhere 🤣😂
Starbucks desperately clinging to their reputation with the perpetually mad crowd. It's a losing game lol
Unbelievable, thank you media for pushing all this division and causing so much ahrm
That’s a lot of money.
Idiots! Why fire someone who had nothing to do with it???
No part of the overtly racist anti-White and increasingly anti-Asian radical left wing agenda or movement belongs within our means of socialization, corporations, financial institutions, government agencies, political institutions, etc. I'm glad justice prevailed in this case. $25.6 million definitely sends the right message to left wing racists and supporters of left wing racists, using the workplace to promote anti-White vilification and discrimination.
Wow. The jury gave her more than the law allows. Not surprised. White *BIAS" is punished severely. 😮
Deleted my Starbucks app best thing I ever did and I use to go 1-2x per day from 2014-2023 and buy 4 venti drinks. This woke gaybacking company not ever seeing another dollar from me I’m done
So, employees caused this problem but the company has to pay the clients and also the employees that caused the problem, makes no sense
Sure, why not ask for more money, blacks do and blacks ALWAYS GET MORE MONEY!
BLACKS ALWAYS GET FAVORITISM, BLACK FAVORITISM HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE NID 1980’s.
All these leftist companies are sinking, go woke, go broke 😅
Wow, white actually got cash for being white, ITS ABOUT TIME WHITES GET CASH FOR WHITE RACISism.
Why that much? 200'000 would have been good. 🙃
this is the problem with the world. Who comes up with these crazy numbers, and the FOOLISH judges who award this money just encourages it even more.
AWESOME 😊
The only ones that actually get any money are the lawyers
All of these because 2 big babies couldn't comply with the rules of the place. A coffee shop is not a public washroom.
I wish I could go into any establishment and demand to use the bathroom. These two frauds are disgusting
mm sweet sweet corporate tears. keep at Starbucks.
They just needed a scape goat
Starbucks, you deserve all of this.
Be better starbucks or you will lose all of your money….stop this white guilt and just treat people equally
Best news of the week so far! Maybe it's time conservatives start boycotting Starbucks too.
I wanna get fired by Starbucks too. 😂
I never seen a black person get that much for discrimination
SAY IT WITH ME W.L.M.
Good for the lady in exposing hypocrisy from Starbucks!!!
25m is a tad much.
White is Right👍👍👍👍👍
Way too much money. People who are wrongfully convicted and spend 20 years in prison being innocent don't get this much. If she gets that much, then what should a wrongful conviction cost? Trillions of dollars?
Hahaha 😂 nice hope he spends it well
Starbucks gave millions to a white person after being accused of racism, the irony is thick.
This is great news but I wouldn't have a coffee in Starbucks even if it was just twenty cents.
Nice!
Explains much about the unusually low-key June from Starbucks.
Good for starwokes coffee!
They are a cult
Excellent ruling, couldn't happen to a better company 🙌🏾 racism is racism, if these businesses had any semblance of integrity they would've known that!!!
"Hey, let's have a meeting in this place of business, buy nothing while taking up a space where actual customers could sit, try to use the bathroom and then be given a simple request to follow basic social convention and buy something in order to use it … refuse … then get asked to leave and proceed to make a scene."
Yeah, seems like these were upstanding citizens. Truly great people who didn't deserve to be escorted out in any way, shape, or form.
