Genius marketing campaign

1. Create troll accounts
2. Create inflammatory hashtag. Let's say, for example, #boycottstarbucks.
3. BuzzFeed posts story about it
4. Liberals adopt hashtag to proclaim their outrage; say they will buy Starbucks to spite Republicans
5. Liberals go out of way to buy Starbucks
6. ???
7. Profit

Oh wait, this example is happening right now Buzzfeed Twitter

Starbucks is no stranger to boycotts. People attempted to #boycottstarbucks because they released a red Christmas cup.

For some reason this got me thinking, and I don't think conservative-leaning coffee shops exist. Almost all are heavily left-leaning.

Makes me if there's a market opportunity to Make Coffee Shops Great Again and target the silent majority.

They probably love boycotts because they profit off of the counter-protest.

so sad, truly it is.

Liberals feel superior, but are led around like lemmings.

Reverse psychology ---- is a liberals worst nightmare!!

Liberals will truly go out of their way to do something, even if they don't really want to, just to spite the other side.

fricking morons, I love it!

CC's is owned by the Saurage family in Baton Rouge and they are about as conservative as you can get.

The Ballard family owns PJ's Coffee and Scott Ballard sits on the LSU Board of Directors. They aren't liberals.

Starbucks has a Veterans program already in place and has hired thousands. The refugees will be hired around the world not strictly in the US. Boycotters are like pouty little kids taking their toy and going home. Pointless boycott
