Your cynicism is showing...It was a minor mistake, amplified to the skies by the aggrieved MAGA cult.

Yep.

The 'mistake' was only a mistake in retrospect, of course. Could it have been foreseen that a backlash of such intensity would have resulted? Maybe, maybe not.

The point was, though, that CB is a failing business now and management was trying to nip a small piece of this in the bud and update the logo along with the actual stores. Now, CB has the worst of all worlds: will they enlarge their regular customer base (many of them the whiners and complainers)? Of great doubt since they are now seen as suspect in their politics having once violated the sacrosanct and been influenced by DEI or something. Will CB now get a new customer base with this action? Hardly.

Lose/lose.

Pete
