I saw this earlier. Is this actually happening like Gillette and Dove?

“These last few months have really tested the boundaries of our ability to be stressed. Just as you think you couldn’t possibly feel more emotionally taxed amidst thousands of people dying every day from coronavirus, bam!

“We’re confronted once again with the systemic murder of Black people by police and increasingly blatant fascist suppression of the protests surrounding them [emphasis added]. It feels…um…really bad (words fail me).”

I wonder if they think a Unite the Right protest should be respected as free speech?

I checked the website. They have a special section for BLM. I summarily cancelled my subscription and signed up for NOTHING. Don't use Harry's either. Too "Woke"

A merkur safety razor with feather blades will give you a cheaper and better shave anyway.

Thanks, just cancelled.

Saw this on their site:

Alongside each of our Unilever sister brands, DSC will contribute $100,000 to Black Lives Matter.

I read the article and clicked on the link to the blog quoted on DSC's site. The article is either BS, or the blog has been edited.

Judge for yourself.

Should have signed up for Barbasol shave club. Their razors are no worse than DSC’s and I believe they are a right-leaning company.

Still looking for the systemic murder of black people and suppression of protests.

I used Gillette for years until their pathetic toxic masculinity crap. Switched to Harry’s. Much better anyway. I didn’t join anything. I just buy it at Walmart.

Talk about spreading misinformation and then putting your business name behind it.

Been a member since June 2012 but just cancelled mine as well with the reason as their support of the BLM organization.
