Swiss neutrality at its finest
Obligatory “fuck Nestlé with a rusted pipe”
I’m surprised Behind the Bastards hasn’t covered them yet.
Didn’t they do one about nestle fucking over Africa by pushing baby formula and then enshiyifying it to the point babies were dying from malnutrition?
Bullshit like this should be handled with large fines for the offender (Nestle) and corporal punishment for their c-suite. <neoliberal-justification>This will create jobs by creating a whole new branch of law, “moronic IP claims law.”</neoliberal-justification>
There are surely more than 2 coffee places in Seattle with ‘Seattle’ in the name.
-
Sue them repeatedly until their legal costs bury them
-
Buy them out for a pittance.
-
Nestle can go fuck itself with a rusty rake.
Nestle is that one mega corp I make sure I never buy.
Here’s the list if anyone needs a refresher.
Buying local and small businesses are the best way to make sure you don’t fund scummy mega corps!
I was just thinking I haven’t heard of anything atrocious from Nestle in a few months. I’m glad they’re still out there proving they’re shit bags.
Wow. I didn’t even realize Nestle owned Seattle’s Best coffee. I’ve just avoided buying it because it tastes like absolute shit.
It used to be good, but yeah the quality has been going down since before it sold to Nestle in 2022.
I don’t like Starbucks coffee, either. So even when it was off brand Starbucks owned I didn’t really care for it, but the taste has definitely continued to go down hill.
that is also one of their mottos.
Nestlé purchased Seattle’s Best Coffee from Starbucks in 2022 and this April, filed a petition to cancel the Seattle Strong trademark name, claiming it is too similar to Seattle’s Best Coffee
OK, fuck Nestlé, but I expected this to be worse. Seattle’s Best Coffee could reasonably be confused with Seattle Strong coffee by an uninformed consumer. This is one of the few Nestlé cases where it can be said to be reasonable. It pains me to say that.
All Nestle has to do is buy a bunch of $TRUMP, And not only will they win this trademark case by Executive Order, but the Federal Government will literally sell Seattle to Nestle…
Agreed. Also, I just wanted to point out that the way your comment is phrased makes it uncertain whether it’s the name “Seattle” that Trump would sell to Nestlé or the actual city itself, including its, people, land, government and infrastructure. To clarify, I believe it would be both of those things.
Just like they own water? Fuckers.
Anybody else remember when the Pequod’s vs QueeQueg’s coffee plotline in Deus Ex Invisible War, the sort of bastard step child sequel?
I remember originally thinking it was way, way too on the nose, so as to be just actually goofy writing.
Welp, I used to think the same about Idiocracy, and reality seems hell bent on lowering its writing standards.
Christ.
Seattle’s Best Coffee, Seattle Strong Coffee, Seattle’s Most Social Isolated Coffee…
All Goddamned Nestle!
