In 2021, the coffee chain pledged $100 million to black and underserved groups and communities following the Black Lives Matter protests across the U.S.
They also committed to strengthening abortion access for employees following a leaked draft of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Going full throttled Woke, Starbucks soon became plagued with violence, homelessness, and crime throughout their shops around the world.

Media personality Collin Rugg can count Donald Trump Jr., Mark Finchem for Senate and Juanita Broderick, the lady Bill Clinton raped, among his 817,000-plus followers on X.
The following message is his latest on the extra woke Starbucks business:
“Starbucks *fires* heroic barista who subdued and protected a co-worker from robbers after getting pistol-whipped in the head.
I can’t emphasize this enough: Starbucks is trash.

20-year old Michael Harrison, who was working through paramedic school, was fired after he fought off two criminals who tried robbing the store.
The incident happened at a downtown Starbucks in St. Louis.
The men rushed into the store with guns and told everyone to get on the floor. Harrison was instructed to open the cash register which he couldn’t because he didn’t have credentials.
As the men went through Harrison’s pockets, he was pistol-whipped in the head.

A co-worker believed the gun was fake so he started fighting off the robbers. Harrison jumped into action to help him.
Harrison was able to subdue Joshua Noe who was later arrested. The police officers thanked Harrison and his co-worker for their bravery.
The other assailant, Marquise Porter-Doyle, was arrested nearby.

Harrison was praised by local media but Starbucks was not thankful for his actions.
They were then placed on paid leave for two weeks. After the two weeks was up, Harrison and his co-worker were fired for “violating company policy.”
“In situations like this, our training and protocols guide our partners to comply and de-escalate, not just for their safety but for the safety of all in the store,” Starbucks said.
“That job was helping me pay for college,” Harrison said. “I just donāt understand it. I thought it was the right thing to do.”
This man should have gotten a raise. Instead, he was fired.
Insane.”

I was there twice when I was still working and only because one manager would give out gift cards for Christmas. I wasn’t impressed.
