Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

It wasn't part of the list already? Wow I just assumed because coke is so evil they would've been a shoe-in.
pretty sure they've been on the list?
edit: read the thread and I guess not? weird
I guess not the official list, but from the No Thanks app, there's this info regarding Coca-Cola: http://www.inminds.com/boycott-coca-cola.html
Most corporations, especially due to being owned by very large monopolies, have direct or indirect support for Israel. Nearly every western product has ties to Israel, thus I suggest buying things used, second hand, local, or find diy solutions.
It makes sense, though. Making BDS too broad or easy to qualify into kind of dilutes the list by having too many companies be in it. It's better to have a clear, limited call to action.
They've had organised boycotts against them by smaller orgs but BDS is the biggest org so far that's officially called a Coca-Cola boycott.
