Black Owned Businesses

[OldBuzzard]

So Amazon says that they have a list of black owned businesses if customers want to order spherically from them. They also say that they are going to offer training and advertising to black business owners. In some cases, Amazon is going to give black owned businesses up to $10,000.00 for some reason.

Now, not to even mention the searing racism demonstrated in this inane strategy, but Amazon is either knowingly or unknowingly sending a message to black business owners. They are saying, “On a level playing field, you are incapable of starting and running a successful business. You cannot sell a worthwhile product or perform a worthwhile service that customers will prefer based solely on quality. You need us to show you how to run your business. And you cannot succeed without our money.

I can’t recall in my life one time when I asked if a product or service which I bought was black owned. I only cared about quality. Amazon is abou to ensure that that changes.

Well you're not racist.

Just virtue signaling from Amazon. I’ve never purchased a product on the internet where I knew what race the business owner was/is.

I’m getting there, if only in self defense.

There should be laws that force businesses and consumers to purchase products from businesses owned by people of colour.

I agree. That's why I only use Aunt Jemima's syrup.

Uncle Ben’s is the best rice out there.

Any time an organization supports one business over another they are hurting the other business by artificially propping up their competition. It’s basically an attack on small businesses that are not in their beneficiary group.

Wow…

Wow…

I know, it’s that damn good. It’s really good with land o lakes butter on it, but only the one with the hot Indian girl on the package.

WHITE rice being sold by a BLACK spokesman. I can see why he was canceled as the lib heads exploded.
