Shitty. Terrible business. Butting their heads in something business doesn't belong in.
Of all the things business has butted it’s heads into why is this the one you object to?
@YOLOIFIC whats an example of something they butt into that i do agree with? Business should make a product, sell a product and shut the fuck up. What else they supposed to do? I dont even like them donating to charity or any of it.
So you didn’t answer the question and got upset.
I don’t like you spewing irrational nonsense online. Does that mean you should be forced to stop? Didn’t think so.
Granted I’m being facetious to make a point. What you think of their rights is irrelevant it’s their right. Meanwhile you have no right to tell them what to do.
@YOLOIFIC I disagree with that entirely. Us people are their consumers. Without us, a business is nothing, so yes our opinions matter.
That’s twice you fabricated things never said or implied. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Fact still stands of the millions of things business butt the it nose into every second of every day this is the one your upset about without any rational explanation. Also that you apparently feel that your make believe right to dislike something a business does somehow overrides their actual legal and moral right to made decisions and express those decisions in a free society.
@YOLOIFIC I didn’t say if it was illegal or not, I said it’s a way to further a divide and people should not feed into that whether they are vaccinated or not. I know tons of vaccinated people that think this incentive is suspect and fucked
Third time you said something I never claimed. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
People have and always will be divided that’s human nature. A business shouldn’t lie about their points of view simply to keep someone from being offended. That’s immoral.
I have repeated exactly what you said. It’s not about lying about their perspectives , it’s about not involving themselves at all which a business should not do. They are giving out bagels and secretly behind the scenes laughing about their contribute to division. It’s the big branded companies doing this. It has nothing to do with stance on anything. It has to do with big branded companies brainwashing people like you to think it’s a perspective on their stance when it’s is a perspective on divide.
Also let’s just make this clear, if a company was Campaigning and providing to people not vaccinated I’d still have the same stance
Lying by omission is still lying and no you’ve constantly made up things I never said at all. Your first reply completely ignored what I asked. The second reply made up me somehow saying consumers can’t disagree with a company. The third falsely claimed I stated what you are doing is illegal and you moved goalposts too from you don’t like it to they’re dividing woolen.
So we’ll have to agree to disagree on thee topic that your repeating what I said. That’s not a rational response.
The fact you’ve got to resort to personal attacks to me shows you know you’re wrong so I’ll leave it at that.
It’s like you never realized there’s two people that have replied to you in this comment section. I never personally attacked you at all. FYI big branded companies thrive on brain washing people and the fact that you think it’s about stance when it is about divide is brainwashing tactic. They want you to believe they are for the vaccines. Their higher ups are most likely not for the vaccines.
Get woke go broke. Most businesses that go against what their actual business is by giving away money or butting into political things go broke. So from an investor standpoint i refuse to invest in companies that have a non business agenda. Not to say a company can't have a stance but to have one for no business purpose is a sign they are a bad investment many times. But legally a business is supposed to be liable to their shareholders (in practice it doesn't always work that way) but if they pursue some kind of moral agenda whether right or wrong that loses profits they should be and technically can be sued for such a thing.
You are correct asker. My bad. But nobody is brainwashed by companies. That’s irrational, it seems you’re confusing advertising with brainwashing.
Persuading someone to do something willingly isn’t brainwashing. In fact brainwashing is very possibly made up. There is much debate about the topic and the word is overused and misused a lot.
Comparing actual potential examples of brainwashing like sexual and physical torture to commercial advertising is really extreme. It’s one thing to try and persuade people to buy your stuff it’s another to use force and violence and manipulation to cause harm to people.
Maybe you disagree, just hope you understand brainwashing isn’t an innocent term and using it so flippantly is disrespectful in my opinion to people that have actually been subjected to horrible situations that come close to actual brainwashing.
Fell free to back up your claims that business that “get woke go broke”. NFL is still here 5 years later. Same with all the other multinational corporations.
But that’s just you changing topics because you know I’m right.
You realize propaganda in past events were advertised just like a business advertises, so you had that together and what do you get? A big branded company advertising free food to fit a narrative. And yes that is a form a brainwashing. Brainwashing can be used beyond sexual and physical torture. I didn’t mean for it to be an innocent term. I meant that big branded companies do that everyday and evidentially it’s working because you yourself are a result of it. You are convinced that these companies are just showing their stance when it is ran by a bunch of higher ups that don’t have only one stance. And also side note I am a victim of sexual assault , so please on gods green earth don’t insinuate that I am downplaying anything of a person of sexual abuse has been through.
A victim of sexual abuse*
So you’re saying you can disrespect everyone else because you claim to be a victim. SMH
Also propaganda is advertising I agree, believe it or not the word propaganda wasn’t considered negative until the last century or so.
There is nothing wrong with trying to convince people your point of view is right. That’s not brainwashing, not even close. That’s persuading people.
Actual use fo force and violence to abuse people into doing what you want the closest thing we can define since brainwashing isn’t a medically accepted term nor is there scientific evidence for the publicly accepted ideas of brainwashing should be compared to commercial advertising or even your bastardized view of public opinion campaigns or as you call it propaganda.
Yes, you are in my opinion downplaying and diminishing actual physical and sexual abuse that could be almost described as ad the made up social concept of brainwashing.
Misusing words because you’re emotionally attached to a consent and want to sensationalize doesn’t change anything. Nor does trying to claim victim status without merit either to stop criticism of your irrational use of the word brainwashing.
“Disrespect everyone else” no you are sitting here disrespecting a victim right now by saying “claim to be” I am a victim. Using the word brainwash does not affect any of those people. You not believing people when they say they are a victim is affecting a victim. Brainwashing is more than sexual abuse. the process of pressuring someone into adopting radically different beliefs by using systematic and often forcible means.
"victims of brainwashing"
Brainwashing is a broad term and it not just used for sexual and physical abuse.
The techniques of brainwashing typically involve isolation from former associates and sources of information; an exacting regimen requiring absolute obedience and humility; strong social pressures and rewards for cooperation; physical and psychological punishments for non-cooperation ranging from social ostracism and...

“Rewards for cooperation”
Brainwashing is said to reduce its subjects' ability to think critically or independently, to allow the introduction of new, unwanted thoughts and ideas into their minds, as well as to change their attitudes, values and beliefs.
@YOLOIFIC views for all sports have decreased as they adopted more political agenda. Thats mainly the nfl and nba have the most political agenda and their viewership has declined greatly. Less eyeballs on advertisers.
@bamesjond0069
Source? NFL dropped for a year or two during and after the 2016-2017 season when the NFL started allowing kneeling but has since rebounded to all time highs. As far as the cause of drops there has been several theories about the cause none are convulsive but it’s highly likely there was a number of factors for the drop not just outrage at kneeling. remaining leagues began my later in 2019 or 2020 so any drop would more likely be due to the pandemic disrupting play instead of this “go work go broke”
Still NFL hasn’t gone broke after 4 years when is it going to happen sir? SHM
Again show me a single multinational corporation or major sports league that went “broke” and I’ll lie and start your 100% correct.
It’s a urban myth perpetuated in echo chambers by the extreme of both political parties in the US. If you only get angry enough suddenly everyone will give up on this company or sport.
Wishful thinking at best and 100% false.
@YOLOIFIC huge multinational corporations almost never go out of business over a single decision ever... so... obviously you're taking a saying to the extreme. But small businesses do. There are numerous examples such as feminist coffee shop
It’s extreme to expect you to support you claimed when you can’t? That’s interesting.
You said get woke go broke, I said prove it. You can’t because it’s a lie made up to make fools feel better about their regret about leaving their sports or store over petty childish nonsense.
@YOLOIFIC i did give you an example as you requested.
But I’ll be fair, show me one regional corporation that’s gone broke after being woke definitely that doesn’t exist either. I’m just trying to make sure you don’t show some barley profitable mom and pop that out under because a minor drop in business made their already horribly managed business unprofitable.
Cause that’s the only example I could think of no established and properly run company has to will ever go under because the tiny amount of extremely petty and irrational people that throw public temper tantrums to get attention stop using their business.
What example? You have no examples at all unless I missed something.
NFL isn’t broke or the NBA that all you mentioned and it got refuted immediately as the massive lie it is.
But if I’m wrong I’m happy to see the announcement the NFL or NBA is going now bankrupt or disbanding due to financial devastation.
@YOLOIFIC im not sure you know much about business but large businesses almost never go out of business due to one decision. Typically they experience lower quarterly profits or take an upward trend downward. Your request is unrealistic. Being hyper literal is a symptom of autism. Maybe your care giver can help explain the saying to you.
Thanks for admitting you’re wrong. It takes courage to do that.
It’s cute you also threw in insults to further let me know you know you’re wrong on top of admitting no business that wasn’t already halfway broke has “gone woke and gone broke” as you lied about initially.
@YOLOIFIC have you ever had a party and had a blast? Well you're a liar because you didn't explode in a fiery blast. Liar! 😝 there's no debating with you you're not capable.
yea its creepy. asking for my medical history for free stuff is coercive
I don't care, the vaccine has not been approved by the FDA yet.
If it hasn’t been approved by the FDA it can’t legally be administered in the United States.
Sorry to burst your bubble, emergency use authorization is FDA approval. Emergency use authorization can’t occur if something isn’t scientifically proven to be safe in human beings.
While long term studies required for full approval are ongoing the emergency use authorization allows the vaccine to be used immediately to save lives. It’s not handed out flippantly nor without due diligence. Granted the FDA just approved an Alzheimer’s drug that is arguably safe and has no proven benefit simply because patients and families are so desperate for a new treatment.
So they’re not infallible but simply acting like the fact the vaccines don’t have full approval means anything is absurd.
Nope, still don't care.
At this point the potential for blood clots and other issues are more of a threat to me than Covid is.
I'm waiting for full approval. Not emergency approval, FULL approval.
I'm 32, not 72.
Unless I’m misunderstanding your profile information you have no risk of blood clots from any vaccine in the market since your male.
For females the two vaccines that have risks of blood clots have been further reviewed and found safe still there is a higher risk of clots from hormonal birth control than the vaccine. Though there is a recommendation for certain women if possible to receive another vaccine if possible but no one recommends any woman to not get vaccinated unless they are medically unable due to being immunocompromised or allergic to the ingredients.
Approval is approval; but emergency use and full approval means the vaccine is safe for people to receive. If it wasn’t you couldn’t give either vaccine.
FYI doesn’t matter if you care or not, the facts are irrefutable despite your irrational attempt to argue to the contrary based in ignorance.
@YOLOIFIC Nah, I'll wait for full approval. Who knows what it does to men down the line?
And the more the vaccine is pushed, the less I trust it.
By that logic you need to stop existing since we don’t know what anything does to us with any certainty. Air, water, food, even just laying in bed you’re exposed to trillions of things from chemicals, chemical compounds, to radiation.
FDA says it’s safe, they’ll never be able to day “down the line” what it could do because down the line will never arrive.
They can and have said it’s safe for humans to use to prevent contracting COVID-19 as long as they’re not allergic to the ingredients or immunocompromised.
If you choose to be irrational mistrusting is something that’s your choice. Doesn’t change the facts, people have all kinds of irrational fears. Doesn’t mean they’re valid.
@YOLOIFIC "Emergency use authorization" is not official Approval.. It's basically them saying that the pandemic is so bad, and we have no other treatments that we need to get this out now whether the long term studies are finished or not.. Which is complete bull because they had a number of treatments for this silly new Flu strand.. They just wanted to push vaccines so Big Pharma could get that sweet vaccine money..
What, what is the reasoning behind it?
I have my vaccines done, but just why free food for it?
Some info is missing there...
To me it seems like it’s a way to get people to get the vaccine. You have people desperate of sometimes needing free food, or people that like free things, so it’s easy to push an agenda. Also makes seem like getting the vaccine is the only right thing to do
Free food, one bagel... Vaccine is free in UK... maybe it will pull cheap people...
I only got them as, too many restrictions, if would not get them...
As I had Covid few times, before vaccine and it was bad first time, just minor inconvenience second time, but not bad enough to run for vaccine...
It’s not the food itself, it’s the idea that many many places are doing this. It’s not right
You’ll be die soon. I’m not commenting anymore. Argue with me: or not. This is my last and first comment.
@Rok4bakAR
What?
You know something I don't?
Or you are one of those anti-vaccers?
Asker, I do not understand their motivation, but there were more silly stuff done...
Maybe someone just had truck load of bagels going out of date soon, so decided to do something like that and get some advert with it...
Yeah I just work in the food industry and I see it as any good business would avoid putting their employees in a position where they would need to deal with someone trying to press them in invasion of privacy. They aren’t protecting their employees , they are exploited them.
To any low level job there is a lot of people in the que.
They are treated like slaves most of the times.
Employers only interested in high profits and low costs to get it and any person is just small cog in a huge machine or number in a book.
All part of government propaganda, for financial reasons it's better to get rid oh the illness as fast as possible.
It is discriminatory towards people who want to protect themselves from the harmful side effects of these dangerous vaccines.
I don't think so, vaccine become necessity in time like now
@curiousbeing6169 Stop drinking the Kool-Aid
Lol , what?
@curiousbeing6169 Exactly. You don't know what you have done. You have willingly submitted to the evil overlords of the Democratic Party who do not have your best interests in mind. They want you to believe everything they say without questioning it. RESIST!!!
Too many sheep! Remember when thinkers used to be called “ conspiracy theory” now they call them “anti vaxxers” remember hitler and Iran’s gov khomani used to round up people with high IQ and take them to the woods and shoot them.
Now they use cheap tactics and brainwashed anti thinkers (aka Karen’s) to attack thinkers.
Remember cigarettes were promoted as a health lifestyle look 30 years later.
History will repeat its self.
The 1% is evil as FK!
Lucky for them 90% of people are anti thinkers!
If it gets more people to get the vaccine, I'm all for it.
Don't care. Businesses can sell to whoever they do or don't want.
It’s not whether they can or can’t, it’s whether is it morally correct. Something that is worth thinking about
I think it's fine.
Yeah you think it’s fine because you are for the vaccine while others are not for it.
Yes? But even if I was against it I wouldn't think the act of incentivisizing it immoral. Why are you asking a question if you only want one answer?
And how would you know that? You are for the vaccine , so how can you even figure that? And I am not asking a question for only one answer. I am allowed to challenge people I do not agree with. Why comment on a question, if you don’t want other peoples opinions and people challenging you?
Because there are companies that sell products I don't agree with, and I don't have a problem with that either. I'm fine with other people challenging me, but you assumed my position and my reasons for my position without sufficient backing
It’s HIPPA violation to show your ID card just like me saying are you vaccinated.. it’s HIPPA violation believe it or not and illegal
@kc_4308 No it's not. It's illegal for a medical provider to leak that information, but they are allowed to ask. Only organizations that are HIPAA Covered Entities or Business Associates are subject to the HIPAA regulations with regards to how information about vaccination statuses is collected, maintained, used, and disclosed.
Can you read I said it’ll illegal for someone to ask you about your medical records including a business and yes it violates HIPPA rights
It may be a good thing so I can know whose vaxx and avoid them
And I checked and you were lying. It's not illegal.
It is illegal would you want me to ask you about your medical records
I wouldn't want you to, but it's not illegal. You must be bad at your job if you don't even know how HIPAA works.
HIPPA PROTECTS PATIENTS AND THEIR MEDICAL RECORDS you're AN IDIOT
IT DOESN'T TELL PRIVATE CORPORATIONS THAT ARE NOT HIPAA COVERED ENTITIES OR BUSINESS ASSOCIATES THAT THEY CAN'T ASK. You're shit at your job. Every reputable website about HIPAA disagrees with you.
I don't know. Sometimes, I hate the world, sometimes I don't care.
I'm already planning for the inevitable betrayal. Still feel the Injection site a month later.
I would not touch the vaccine so this deal is not for me
Because you think!
aren't fat people more prone to ill effects from covid? Maybe that's why lol.
Businesses hold ethical responsibilities toward society and making people do the right thing and get vaccinated is awesome! I respect them for that.
A vaccine that is not FDA approved? I don’t think so. I feel like most companies that are good try and protect their employees from quite possibly having to talk or be asked about the vaccine. It puts controversy into play , which should be avoided.
You know there's nothing free in this world.
Like I was ripped off I wanted a new car LOL
Panera breads are hard as rocks! 😝
Unacceptable. Feel like a lab rat yet ?
No problem - a good idea
Sounds like a good incentive.
Good incentive? Dividing is a good incentive?
How is feeding someone divisive unless you get off on seeing people go hungry?
Because it divides between vaccinated and not vaccinated. They are feeding an agenda. It’s not the aspect of feeding, it is the agenda behind the feeding.
There was already a division between the vaxed and unvaxed. Feeding people doesn't create this division out of thin air.
Feeding people does further is a divide when you are only catering to one side of that divide. I didn’t say it created a divide, I said it is feeding one side of that divide. It’s like if they did this during the division of blacks and whites and said “if you are white you get a free bagel today”
Nothing wrong with it.
It's like giving a worried little child a lollipop when they had an injection. Nothing wrong with it.
@Asker you're really going to compare this to racism and discrimination. I know you're not a minority because nonsense like only comes from people who have never faced racial discrimination. It is not the same thing AT ALL.
Anyone and everyone can be held accountable for their viewpoint and therefore gace consequences of their actions, no one can be held accountable for their skintone. Are you ok?
Face* consequences
@ZaZaEstelle yes it is a form of discrimination. It is using a controversial topic for marketing. And of course I’m not a minority because most minorities are democratic and are for the vaccine. And somebody should not be held accountable because they didn’t choose a vaccine that is not FDA approved. Interesting how people like you followed the FDA up until the vaccines
I dont give a crap if you are for or against the vaccine. I dont like the fact that you thought it was ok to compare racial discrimination to this. It says a lot about you
Yes, I knew you weren't a minority when ignorant garbage like that came from you. I dont care if that was sarcasm, its true.
You actually can be held accountable if your choices are affecting the rest of the population by not getting a vaccine.
Either way, its free food. Get over it. People who are against the vaccine are not getting pubished for it. They're just not getting rewarded. Those companies are in their right to do whatever they want with their business. You're one of those Karen's that thinks they've experienced some serious injustice and you just haven't.
Getting punished* or even forced to do it
@Zazastelle clearly you do give a crap if I am for or against a vaccine because you are the same kind of person that absolutely crucifies somebody if they have suspicions of the vaccine, so to say you don’t care is a lie. 2. Vaccines go back to race essentially as minorities such as blacks have been used for experimentation reasons , so honestly it’s not that far off of a comparison. 3. You knew I wasn’t a minority simply because most minorities are democratic and I am not democratic and you know that 4. I have been healthy since the start of the pandemic and have not been sick once on top of working around many many people every single day 5. There is no such thing as free food. It’s free to consumers like you but the agenda behind the free food is to market, so no it is not free. It’s not whether or not people are getting rewarded , it’s an attempt to divide. 6. “I am one of those Karen’s” no I am not one of those Karen’s. I am someone looking deeper into a crooked businesses agenda. 7. I am willing to bet you are the same type of person that will call a business crooked for not giving their employees minim wage but you think it’s totally beneath them to push and divide.
I am a restaurant worker I will never ever yell at an employee for not putting Mayo on my sandwich, but I will definitely question the hell out of what a big branded company chooses to promote when it is controversial so shove that Karen comment straight up your nasty ass
Ok, where exactly have I "crucified someone" for having suspicions of the vaccine, where is the evidence? And dont try and say the flat earth comment because it was clearly a joke as I disagree that there's anything wrong with the vaccine. If you want to act like it was a dramatic comment then that is absolutely ridiculous, but please tell me where I've crucified and pretty much harassed people like you're making out.
Where is the evidence of black people being used for experiments? This isn't the first time I've heard of this but I've yet to see any actual evidence.
Urm, no. Thats not why. I know quite a few people who are minorities and are not democratic. Dont put words in other peoples mouths. you're such an emotional thinker you dont realise you fill in half of the blanks yourself.
My problem from the very beginning was the fact that you compared this situation to racial discrimination. I can't take half of what you say seriously after you made such a stupid comparison. Also learn how to talk properly darling, people might take you more seriously. Just proves even further that you are in fact a Karen 😂
100% don't trust it. sus af
Feel? I feel Nothing actually
Same lol
I got absolutely nothing not even a doughnut
Man where’s my free food? Lol
sounds kinda suspicious to me
It's a ploy!!!
I’m all for anything that is free!
Tell em to shove it
Sound like sells are slow
I like that idea!
I'm all for it.
Sounds like discriminating
Nazi's
Weird.
Don't care.
Nothing wrong w it
Great idea
Wonderful
