I stopped using Facebook. Should have stepped up to do the right thing

BMW Pepsi and Paypal should stop doing business with an activist ad agency.

Why doesn’t CNBC expose the hypocrisy of Ben & Jerry’s? Fake environmental brand owned by Unilever that uses slave labor on Palm Plantations that pollute the environment. They should clean up their company before they try to push other companies around. Facebook

This one is even weaker than Ben + Jerry. We will stop posting on facebook for a month? Why say anything?

They are threatening to boycott. Not the same as a boycott. We will stop ads maybe next month? Come on, man.

Why is she kissing a Pepsi can? Is this supposed to make me want to drink it? It works. I’m going to buy it. ;)

No surprise that big corporations favor censorship over free speech. They love all the money they get from China

Of course who wanting a boycott of Facebook would know they were still advertising on Facebook unless the people complaining were still on Facebook...

anyone needs website I will build an awesome website for you. FOr know more WebDesi47261566
