The thing that maybe some folks don't understand is that many consumers want to know the values of the companies whose products they buy...AND typically those who care have leaned forward in their social views, not backward. Doesn't mean that some consumers won't boycott a company, say Nike, for embracing leading edge such values, but far more go the other way and reward the company for said values.
Voting access is at least a 70:30 issue in America, with a majority of conservatives supporting increased voter access. A company doesn't want to be aligned with the minority on an issue like this, particularly not the even smaller minority who would actively go the other way.

Now, IMO, Coca-Cola has a rather long history of trying to come across as valuing inclusiveness, and this particular move, under pressure to respond one way or another, is simply "on-brand". Pepsi would likely make the same calculation. Indeed most large consumer companies, especially those with a customer base skewed younger (as is the case for both Coke and Pepsi brand portfolios), would make this calculation.
Re: Progressive Ideology
Circa 1965, just pre-lacrosse career, this then 12-year old writer was on the swim team at the local YMCA. The Y had a Coke machine that dispensed actual glass bottles of Coke. Hangin' out one day waiting to be picked up after practice, i put two fingers in the slot where you popped the cap and it fell into a long, deep metal box. The box hung on a small lip i guess, cause you could lift it up slightly so that it tilted away from the door of the machine at the bottom of the maybe 6 to 8-inch long metal bottle cap container.
At one point, i lifted the metal box and, as i let it go, gave the machine door a little hip-check and VIOLA! A bottle of cold, crisp Coke came tumbling out of the machine!
Tried it again...it worked again! I made out like a bandit off that machine for at least a couple months until someone figured out that the "take" didn't equal the number of bottles missing, and the machine was replaced...with cans this time i think.
It was around that time that i became a life-long Pepsi fan...

Re: Progressive Ideology
IMO this story will take awhile to unfold. There are scenarios I can see for some local bottlers that will lose them money and customers. The people that own Rochester Coca Cola are independents, they actually have very little in common with the coca cola USA operation. They probably won't be to thrilled about being hung out to try for a decision they had no part in. My opinion is still that mixing politics and soda pop will be toxic for Coca Cola. I guess moral victories are more important than bad business decisions.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 05, 2021 2:00 pmDid I "heap praise"? Not my intent.

Re: Progressive Ideology
When I was a kid the hardware store around the corner had an old vendo slant shelf. The machine you would put your dime in and open the door and pull out the bottle. We use to take a plastic cup and a bottle opener, pop the cap and pour it into the cup. Eventually someone was going to pull out an empty bottle and scratch their head.dislaxxic wrote: ↑Mon Apr 05, 2021 2:08 pm Circa 1965, just pre-lacrosse career, this then 12-year old writer was on the swim team at the local YMCA.

What’s even more amazing than socialists using the police (I thought cops sucked...?) is how little pushback Fanlax libs will give to this unconstitutional abuse of authority.

A quick story for you Pete. The blimp, over on the old forum use to opine that the US Army turned him down when he tried to join. I am always very harsh on the the decisions our government makes... in his case, turning the blimp down was one of the smartest decisions the US Army ever made.

Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know
Taught me so well, that I grabbed that gold
I left his dead ass there by the side of the road, yeah
