If anyone has been looking at the Nike (NKE) stock, you can get it at a discount today.

Being "pissed off" over this ad is the definition of being a snowflake.



Is it possible to disagree with something and not be “pissed off”?

Just because I disagree and chose not to purchase anymore Nike products doesn’t make me a pissed off angry person. Nor does it make me a snowflake. I’m not melting. I started this thread to state my position.

Just because you disagree with me doesn’t make you a snowflake either.

Congrats on completely misunderstanding and applying the term snowflake to anything and everything in life.

Absolutely. On a scale of 1-100, someone not standing in a forced show of patriotism scores in the 6-8 range.

Nope, but running to the internet to start a thread about it does make you a snowflake.

Keep telling yourself that asswipe.

Why? This is a discussion board. Where people discuss things.

Do people that write oped’s in newspapers or blogs need to be all called snowflakes as well?

Nike wants to start a discussion, then don't object when the discussion doesn't lean the way you wish it would.

The reality is, Nike has their products made oversees by low wage workers, so they can target minorities with expensive ads and endorsement campaigns.

It's perfectly acceptable for anyone that doesn't agree with the ethics of a business practice to not patronize the business.

It's very unethical and with social media these days, it's hard to ignore topics like this.

You're ranting on about how we are wrong for disagreeing with Nike.

Is it really virtue signaling if OP stands by his word and never buys Nike again?

You don't understand what virtue signalling is, apparently.
