MSNBC host and notorious race-grifter, Al Sharpton, is standing up for corporate racism - surprise! He’s supporting a buy-cott (that’s the opposite of boycott) for bulk-shopping giant, Costco. Sharpton really appreciates Costco’s discriminatory DEI company policies that place race, gender and other identity factors over merit.
Here’s more. (WATCH)

Sharpton called for a “buy in” at companies like Costco who do support DEI.

Holding a press conference outside of a Costco, Sharpton has truly fallen off 😂

Whether Costco likes it or not, they now have bonafide racist as their company spokesperson. Congrats, Costco! Racism tends to attract more racism, so this ugly marriage was bound to happen. Commenters are laughing the company is getting exactly what they deserve.
Sharpton got the old school race grift thirst

Looks like Al is getting back to his roots and is trying to start more riots, Collin. I just renewed my Sam’s Club membership.

Al Sharpton is a racist. That’s why he’s supporting DEI. Anyone who still listens to Sharpton is also a racist.

So I guess @Costco is happy to have this grifter and divider as their spokesman? Good to know where they stand.

Of course, despite Sharpton’s intentions to praise Costco, he’s only bringing new awareness to the company's hateful practices and its unwillingness to drop them. Thanks, Al!
Thank you, Al. Currently reevaluating my patronage to Costco.

Wife and I are allowing our Costco membership to expire after 25 years. Kids long gone, we recently moved far from the nearest store, and no desire to give any more of our money to Woke Warehouse.

I’m boycotting Costco until they fix their racist DEI policies. Merit should be the only criteria that matters, not diversity quotas.

Goodbye @Costco if you support DEI you discriminate against those who are not DEI and you also discriminate against the millions of employees who voted MAGA/MAHA

Hopefully, this will be a wake-up call for Costco. Many other companies are dropping DEI policies since President Donald Trump was elected, but there are a few holdouts.
@Costco will deeply regret this if they don’t make an about face on this very soon.

They won’t. They’re doubling down.

Costco is about to lose a lot of customers
— Aurora 🇺🇲 (@FloreFlos) January 26, 2025
Will this make Costco see the light? Probably not. But, it is costing them customers. Thankfully, we have choices and can choose to do business with companies that support our values and don’t openly discriminate on us based on innate characteristics. Plus, who wants to run into Al Sharpton and his cadre of racists when shopping for groceries? We don’t.
