Really? I see a ton of liberal douche canoes in North Face. Its all they wear. North Face has pulled this shite before so if you bought it within the last 4 years you are part of the problem

Bud light is still way worse. Have friends that are distributors in a couple states and they are getting killed.
Our local Budweiser distributor has forked out tons of cash for radio air time in the last 2 weeks parroting the company line, “it was only 1 can, it was not approved by Budweiser executives”. PLEASE come back and don’t let one individual prevent you from spending your hard earned money on what you love.”

Do you think that the fact that you won’t just say why you’re upset means it’s not a great reason to be upset.

Aversion to gender confusion is innate. Even if you could talk the person you're responding to out of being disgusted by gender confusion, why would you? Is that what you do? You go around convincing people to go completely against their gut instincts, and to respect some well-crafted argument instead?

I would Strongly encourage people to ignore their gut instinct when dealing with other people.

Being mad because a store sells pride clothes in a pride section because it’s “indoctrinating kids” is fricking dumb.

North Face was geared to granola heads 40 years ago. Them sliding over to full-blown cultural Marxism isn't that big of a surprise.

They have been dumb for a while. Didnt they not make shirts for an oil company or something? Wonder how they ship their product around the world or where the plastics in their clothes come from.


This- I didn’t have any North Face before, but after they cancelled an order for an oil & gas company, I wrote the brand off. I guess their jackets are made from unicorn turds.

It's funny that nobody cared about this last year when they did the exact same thing. Sensitivity is at all time high right now, on both sides.


Ironically that speaks to the general tolerance of folks. It's like a fly that you ignore for a while until it gets in your eye. Then you go after that fly and any other flies in the area that you think is getting too close.

Nuisances can fly under the radar as long as they stay in their lane.

It's time for the proverbial "sleeping giant" to awaken and show these woke companies that conservative, everyday Americans are their customer base and we'll simply find other companies to support.

been wearing Spyder ski gear for 3 seasons and absolutely love them. Super lightweight, dries in no time and nowhere as stiff or noisy as NF.

They’re pricey to be sure, but they’re worth it. I had a ski jacket that I wore for a dozen years - yeah it was showing its age in spots, and it wasn’t the latest style, but all the major parts were still solid, and I had more than my share of “yard sales” that tested it . Had I not lost it in a fire (bit of irony there) I’d still be using that same one. It lasted long enough for me to justify buying the brand again.

I feel bad for these guys, but the issue is I don’t love bud light. Like many people I’d drink it just because it was easy to find and cheap.

It’s also just as easy to grab Miller lite or yuengling and not have to hear comments from my friends.


They’re completely screwed.

Wow.

I strongly encourage people to do the exact opposite and trust their instincts.

the Sammy Tiger’s of the world advocating for you just to ignore the latest progressive push….is exactly how we go to where Target is selling penis tucking bathing suits as soon as you walk in the door.

That’s it! I’m actually a fascist who is very confused about his sexuality. C’mon, dude.
