The snacks are bad too

So more like LesserProduct

There was (or is) a brand called noevilfood or something that did union busting and a podcast I was listening to called them mo'evilfood

In April 2025, Hershey signed an agreement to acquire LesserEvil

So now they're just regular evil

the stock guy

That really isn't very specific, especially in America.

People seem to misunderstand the term lesser evil. Because lesser evil doesn't mean things are good. They are still admittedly evil. They are being open about it

It really is the most corporate capture of a term to turn it into yet another marketing buzzword, isn't it?

"Fortunately for us, Coca-Cola has set the bar for what constitutes 'lesser evil' incredibly low."

Thought this was the vegan snackfood company that got famous for union busting with a land acknowledgement, that also got featured on Chapo as a reading series.

They've gone all in on advertising with their Weird White Buddha Babies and it's tough to watch

Gene Hackman I am disappoint

[–] Monstertruckenjoyer@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Think it was just a regular shitty snack company till the DOGE father took them over, Hackman's relatively clean here

[–] cypherpunks@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

no, Hackman co-founded the company with Jim Cramer 😢
