- fuck you, hipertarian! No more $12 kale from you!
- Yeah, who needs healthcare when you can buy overpriced placebo "nutritional supplements" from this sleazeball?
- He must be an idiot. The entire base for his store is granola liberal, and he's going to alienate them with his moronic Republican worship?
- Liberals have just about nowhere to shop these days.
- Whole Foods worker here. After his last libertarian screed he was subtly eased out of his CEO duties. He was forced to share the title with another guy who was actually doing the job. He was also removed as chairman of the board. he basically gave lectures most of which were cancelled. Then he went quiet. Now he's back promoting a book about conscious capitalism. It's all over our stores at the moment.
Now this. I expect when I go back to work the books will be discreetly moved to one very dark location.
- Another example of Bridezilla-zation, in which everyone with some (very) small advantage or platform thinks everyone else is keen to hear their opinions on all matters.
"It's MY special day, bitches, and all of you bridesmaids WILL BOW DOWN AND OBEY!"
- I try to find a universal definition of fascism. Isn't one element of faschism that it is anti-democratic? How would that apply to any piece of legislation that passes Congress?

At least 80% of Whole Foods customers are Republicans who home school their kids.
- Mr. Mackey regrets his poor choice of words.
