    There is evidence, there are pictures and screenshots, you just refuse to believe it.

    Only screenshot I’ve seen is one showing that the course was available to Coca-Cola staff from the company’s LinkedIn Learning subscription. But by all means, provide screenshots showing that the course was mandatory. I’ve explicitly asked several times on this thread for evidence of something like an email listing the training as mandatory, but you just keep saying, “oh there’s evidence” without providing any.

    Your threshold for what constitutes ‘evidence’ is a bit thin though. On another thread you claim that not mentioning an author constitutes a ‘’statute’ to ban their books. You also claimed Amazon deleted specific books from Kindle devices though I provided a screenshot showing they are still available on the Kindle store (at least to Australian customers).

    Read the news articles from NY Post, Newsweek, OAN, Fox News, it quotes knowledge of at least 3 people, most courts would find 3 independent witnesses sufficient evidence. The rest is you just defending the company, I have dealt with these kind of issues professionally, it doesn’t matter what corporate statement or public apology you put out, if you have multiple credible employees saying a manager did something illegal, even if it wasn’t in writing, and you didn’t investigate and reprimand or fire the offender, the OCR or state agencies involved will still give you a fine.

    Amazon has deleted books from Kindles, such as Orwell’s books before and recently a list of books it finds “offensive”. Because you can still find a book that’s listed, doesn’t mean it’s available, if you actually try to purchase it says: The Kindle title is not currently available for purchase, even in Australia, get on a VPN and check it, I just did.

    And yes, a directive to change the wording in a classic and standing event in order to not reflect the original meaning in said event, requires an order. Biden has declared it will no longer mention Dr. Seuss going forward, the Biden employs 1000s of people that need this kind of messaging coordinated, otherwise you get chaos. The note to everyone that on Dr. Seuss birthday we will no longer mention Dr. Seuss because he’s racist that’s an order/statute (aka rule of an organization) whatever you want to call it. Not saying Biden doesn’t have the legal right to do it, it is within his purview to direct his organization however he wants, but it is disingenuous to say that they just kind of forgot rather than an explicit order to censorship or rewriting the history of a notable day from the people that should defend the first amendment.

    Now if you want to apply more of your WT logic to this elder Jeffro, go right ahead and believe whatever you want but the facts are the facts, this stuff is immoral, dangerous and the American public should be aware of it.

    Another screed of text without the claimed evidentiary screenshots. Instead you fall back to ‘well some employees said so’. Because disgruntled employees never make things up or exaggerate. 😂 (Also, eyewitness testimony is one of the weakest forms of evidence.) So... no actual evidence then. But you said there were pictures and screenshots proving it. Was that a lie?

    Oh no, they won’t ‘mention dr Seuss’ at a specific event. How dare they (though that decision actually predates Biden’s presidency). Totally sounds like the same thing as a ban. 🤦‍♂️ Read Across America indicated in 2017 that it planned to phase out mentioning Dr Seuss. https://www.slj.com/?detailStory=cat-hat-racist-read-across-america-shifts-away-dr-seuss-toward-diverse-books

    Orwell’s books are also still on the Kindle store.


    What was previously removed were copies of the books provided by an unlicensed publisher.

    Yep, downvote the presentation of evidence including links and screenshots if it doesn’t fit the narrative. 😂


    Sums up these guys’ level of respect for facts pretty well.

    Maybe Jeffro works for Coca Cola?? Or has a lot of stock in it. He can be shown all types of sources and he still says the same thing. So be it. So if he has a stake in Coke it all makes sense. Or if he loves the taste of Coke he doesn’t want the whiteness thing to affect his enjoyment of the product.
