Ben & Jerry’s are combining ice cream with identity politics political campaigning…because society is in constant need of liberal left indoctrination, even as they enjoy their ice cream.
Ben & Jerry’s is now campaigning to take in more refugees by placing pro-migration slogans on their ice cream tubs, virtue signaling to the liberal left, and ultimately allowing identity politics to infect their brand…which will certainly not end well for the iconic ice cream brand.
Just look at the NFL and ESPN to see how their foray into identity politics is working out.
Ben & Jerry’s UK & Ireland Marketing Manager Christina Dunn, explains…
“We have teamed up with the International Rescue Committee to say we are together for refugees, and we are urging concerned citizens and ice cream lovers everywhere to join us in helping to give vulnerable refugees a safe place to call home.”

However, this is not the first time they have dabbled in politics. In fact, the co-founders of Ben & Jerrys have been “politically active for decades”. Recently, they signed a letter demanding a tax increase for the wealthy and past political histories have featured on such flavour sensations as ‘Rainforest Crunch’ or ‘Imagine Whirled Peace’. Bernie Sanders Presidential run was commemorated by an unofficial flavour called ‘Bernies Yearning’.
In a frankly mind-bending, bizarre intervention they suggested that choosing certain ice cream flavours is a sign of ‘implicit bias’; their Twitter account provided a link to a blog post positing that the reason why people are condition to think that certain flavors taste good when combined – such as their ‘Half Baked’ brownie and cookie dough confection – is due to conditioning, not unlike implicit bias.
Implicit bias is the theory that unconscious attitudes or stereotypes affect our understanding, actions, and decisions. The post then goes on to discuss cultural stereotypes and systemic racism, before urging people to take an implicit bias test and engage in a ‘bias cleanse,’ among other things. In and of itself, without the political connotations, implicit bias was described as “pseudoscience that tastes like day-old vomit” on Twitter by actor Travis Wester.
This nonsense was predictably met by a furious Twitterstorm. However, the furious demand that Ben & Jerry’s stick to making ice cream was dismissed out of hand by the company who replied ‘this is a values-based business you know’. I personally won’t be buying Ben and Jerry’s again and don’t think any patriotic conservatives should as they will just be financing the propagation of liberal propaganda.
When I found out B&J were homos I never touched another bite of their ice cream.
So, if they were to declare “they’ve gone straight”, I still wouldn’t touch their stuff due to this little commie stunt.
See ya B&J, hope you enjoyed your success because you just killed it with about all of America.
I cant afford it to begin with but after what I have learned of them, they can just F**ck off, I wont allow their filth in the house.
Politics aside, there’s no way I’m paying six dollars for a pint of ice cream.
Agree! I know from making it myself some of the ing. like cream, & half and half cost a bit more than low fat milk, not to mention any other goodies one might toss in, but 6 bucks seems pretty high.
Hopefully they will be swimming in that cream when they go out of business. Beware, they’ll probably open up under some other name though.
ben cohen and jerry greenfield…
Never touched their stuff on principle alone.
Imo, this is worse than being a homo. No wonder so freaky, zio joos!
Truth, Katie! First time I saw them I knew I hated em for a reason. I didn’t realize they would accrue a laundry list over the decades!
Keep your stinking ice cream you fat homos. Let’s see how much of it the wetbacks buy.
They don’t own it. 2billion dollar sale a decade ago or more.
They stopped making the best flavor long ago.
Next!
Well actually they’re trying keep market share.
The competition. .. Baskin Robins already has a welcome refugees and a job application web link on their ice cream containers.
Plus they have 31 non gay flavors.
Never try there ice cream to rich for my blood plus things like them what’s wrong with this country
