I refuse to support the sponsors of the Sochi Russia homophobic olympic games in 2014. Russian legislature has imposed genocide on it's LGBTQ citizens. Violence on LGBTQ reigns terror over that community that has been erased through a legal process. Clearly a human rights violation.
On our website, you can see the video of what happened during the Olympics in Nazi Germany and how it is very similar in setting to today. The International Olympic Committee is turning a blind eye to their own charter to move forward with these games in the hateful country. Russia no longer qualifies to host these games under the charter.
Olympic sponsors: McDonald's, Coca-Cola, Samsung, Procter and Gamble, VISA are a few who are going along with the ridiculous, money driven IOC. Their open acknowledgement of the IOC's decision to comply with and continue on this disastrous course, is CONDONING the same "gay propaganda" laws are acceptable to their corporate charter.
While most of these sponsors are stating their corporate accolade on LGBTQ support about equality and diversity, it is all lip service. You are a hypocrite when you say one thing and do something completely different to pad your pocket like the IOC.
Any one who lives on the road knows that McDonald's is a pretty safe place to avoid food poisoning. They have healthy food despite their bad reputation for fat poisoning everyone. They have salads, oatmeal and I was LOVIN' the egg white products they just started to offer. Too bad for them that I have found alternatives to stopping by for a berry smoothie on my 3 hour drive to Madison. It is called a gas station. I now stop for Kashi bars and smoothies readily available.
Have I lost weight? No. I am still maintaining my slim, trim figure (pipe dream) finding may new places to eat. Meeting new people and discovering new foods in the adventure. Overall, positive experience dumping homophobic sponsor, McDonalds!
Next homocaust supporter, Coca-Cola. Coke Zero was like water to me on the road. I would grab two or three on long drives. Water and tea are my preferred choices now. Mountain Dew is now pretty much only when I need the caffeine jolt. Soda intake has dropped significantly.
One note of caution. Look at the label and see who bottled this stuff. I got burned a couple times. Here are some major Coca Cola Products in USA: Dasani water, Fanta, Powerade, Sprite, Flavored Cokes such as Cherry, Vanilla and many more, Barq’s Root Beer, Fresca, Mr. Pibb, Nestea, Minute Maid, Bacardi Mixers Fruitopia, TaB, Tahiti Treat, Mello Yello, Splice, & Mexican Coke. Also Dasani water and Vitamin Water are products of this sponsor of Russian bloodshed.
Another solution is to by a friendly bottled water and buy flavoring. Target and some truck stops have Mio flavors in a variety of flavors. I'm sure overall, my body is appreciating the soda reduction.
Samsung is probably the biggest vendor that we have walked away from in our household. TV's, cellphones and tablets have all been on our purchase list. We won't even look at their products. My partner had his Galaxy 4 for less than 48 hours and took it back in support of the boycott. HTC makes great phones for Android. Apple is still LGBT friendly.
Procter and Gamble can bite the big one too. We have switched from Tide to Caldrea. A bit more expensive and harder to find, but the quality is much better. Both on clothes and on fabric. Scent free options are All. Never had an issue with this product.
Buyer beware. Read the label, not only for the ingredients but who is manufacturing these things. You don't want your money supporting hate groups or companies that are filtering your money to LGBTQ hate crimes like in Russia.
YOU DO HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THE WORLD>>>>>IT STARTS WITH YOUR WALLET AND WHAT YOU PURCHASE!!! Look at Barilla if you want to see how you can impact and devastate a company.
