And labeled a racist and having white privilege because he complained on TikTok about NYC’s lack of real grocery stores and he was trouble finding food to buy for his apartment. Clown world.

“A Midwestern college grad has been fired from his New York City tech job after TikTok videos he made complaining about Bronx bodegas prompted accusations of racism.”

“Griffin Green, 24, relocated to the Big Apple from Michigan last week to take up a new role as a sales development rep with the software company Outreach — before being booted from the firm after a Twitter mob called for his cancellation.”

“OK, so I just moved to New York and I’m going to go grocery shopping, and so I type in like, ‘grocery stores,’ on my Apple Maps, and every f–king one I go to … they’re like this s–t,” he stated in one video, before panning the camera to show a local bodega.

“Like bro, that’s not a grocery store,” he continued in the clip. “I’m trying to get, like eggs, yogurt, cheese, s–t like that. Like, look at this place.”

“He later stated: “Like I’ve literally been to like five of those now, and like, I don’t know what the f–k I’m about to do for dinner. Like where are the Krogers and the Whole Foods at? Like I’m about to eat f–king like cereal and ramen for dinner, like what the f–k?”

There’s a Whole Food at Time Warner Center.

I don’t live there and I know that.

I also know the Bronx isn’t where I’d want to live if I had to move to NYC. He should have gone to Queens or settled for a broom closet in Manhattan.

There is no one more miserable and haughty than a person who fancies themselves a New Yorker.

He’s right. Bodegas in Brooklyn suck.

“video made by Green in which he showed off a confidential offer-of-employment letter and announced he was moving to New York City.”

I suspect showing a confidential letter on the internet from said company may have had a little more to do with him getting fired than a grocery store rant.

And that had zero to do with why the woke mob came after him.

He was a privileged white guy. The sooner you admit to yourself what’s really going on, the more in tune with reality you will be.

He’s a new college graduate. Sorry he’s not still communicating on a flip phone, grampa.
