It looks like a lot of “conservative” types got played … hard. SMFH.
How Black Rifle Coffee Used Every Trick in the Book to Fool Conservatives
Once again, patriots are learning the hard way that when you tether your identity to a for-profit institution, you’re setting yourself up to be disappointed.
Black Rifle Coffee Company was supposed to be a company that countered the effete stereotypes of other coffee sellers. When Starbucks promised to hire refugees, BRCC pledged to hire veterans. The company ran a promotion donating free bags of coffee to police officers. Its products are adorned in pro-military, pro-police kitsch. Black Rifle was supposed to be the rare company willing to openly market to the majority of America that doesn’t enjoy riots, protesting the flag, 13-year-olds getting castrations or double mastectomies, and every other piece of the ideological package that has become America’s de facto ruling ideology.
Sike!
Black Rifle actually hates populists and conservatives. In fact, it’s willing to pay you to never be their customer again. That’s the takeaway from the company’s 7,000-word profile in The New York Times last week.
Sometime in the last few months, The New York Times asked Black Rifle if they’d be interested in an interview. As a proud MAGA-backing coffee company, Black Rifle could have responded in several different ways:
-Ignore them
-Deliver a terse statement
-Ask for a list of questions and give brief, accurate answers
-“The Times is the enemy of the American people. F off.”
Black Rifle did none of those things. Instead, founder Evan Hafer sat down for a wide-ranging in-person interview. The company posed for a photo shoot. They gave the Times’ Jason Zengerle everything he needed for a massive story making it absolutely clear how the company really feels about its most enthusiastic supporters.
The Rittenhouse episode may have cost the company thousands of customers, but, Hafer believed, it also allowed Black Rifle to draw a line in the sand. “It’s such a repugnant group of people,” Hafer said. “It’s like the worst of American society, and I got to flush the toilet of some of those people that kind of hijacked portions of the brand.” Then again, what Hafer insisted was a “superclear delineation” was not too clear to everyone, as Munchel’s choice of headgear vividly demonstrated.
“The racism [expletive] really pisses me off,” Hafer said. “I hate racist, Proud Boy-ish people. Like, I’ll pay them to leave my customer base. I would gladly chop all of those people out of my [expletive] customer database and pay them to get the [expletive] out.” [NY Times]
Hafer’s choice of epithet is revealing. One doesn’t even have to like the Proud Boys to know that calling them racist is ridiculous. The group’s leader is sometime FBI-informant Enrique Tarrio, an Afro-Cuban. It famously attracts Hispanics, Asians, and Polynesians. The Proud Boys are all-male and proud “Western chauvinists.” Hafer could have called them violent, or stupid, or a potential federal op. But instead, he chose to call them racists, the one slur against them that is completely indefensible.
In other words, Hafer doesn’t actually know anything about the Proud Boys. He’s just repeating nonsense talking points fed to him by the Right’s enemies, whom he evidently views as a reliable information source.
That pattern recurs throughout the article. The damning revelation of the interview is that, whatever his superficial signaling towards American nationalists, Hafer has thoroughly submitted to the moral imperialism of the left. He accepts their core premises about reality and allows them to define the limits of his worldview.

Whether it was a bait and switch or a hit job, the company is likely doomed at this point. It’s targeted customer base will have jumped ship by now and the rest of the country isn’t going to purchase coffee from any business with the words “Black Rifle” in its name.
I canceled my renewing order two days ago when I read Hafer’s comments.
A business genius he’s not. He probably thought he was the smartest guy in the room and got played trying to appease his interviewer. Never let the media interview you if you’re on the right side of the political spectrum. He learned the hard way.
Never bought their stuff, never will and even better, Libs will not buy from them either!
Let me take a moment to stop laughing at this idiot’s business sense. He just gave his business a death notice. All to kiss the ass of the NY Times,and woke retards. Who only asked for the interview to embarrass him in the first place. Can’t fix stupid.
Really amazing stupidity….how hard is STFU?
Why on earth are people so anxious to ingratiate themselves to liberals who hate them and their businesses? Why?
never heard of it, and i don’t live in a bubble, and i drink a lot of coffee, and it’s not maxwell house or folgers.
Never tried it. Any coffee without the actual farm/co-op listed and the country of origin, along with variety of beans grown (there are hundreds just like apples and there are “honeycrips” varieties and “crab apple” varieties) is garbage.
Best coffee I have found is from 2 states away and not political.

A little known fact is that Mexican coffee is really good stuff. I get the green coffee beans and roast and grind them myself. Plus, the green beans keep almost forever so they are a great prep item.

Amen on green beans! I get Brazillian Cerrado beans myself and I’ve even got my husband up to speed on the roasting and cleaning of the coffee beans once a week!
Yup, they jumped the shark. Always thought the coffee thing on either side pretty much shows the pussification of the country. Any conservative group that would deal with the NY Slimes is pretty much tone deaf. This shit is so emblematic of that generation that they can’t resist virtue signaling. Guess all that ink has leached into their fucking brains. They stepped on their dicks and deserve the consequences. They are toast.
They were fine keeping their mouths shut, and just grifting the MAGA crowd – until Kyle Rittenhouse shot two Jewish Antifa to death (one was literally a convicted homosexual pedophile), and everybody was cheering for him.
Why was this a problem for them?

((Everywhere))
Yup all they had to say was we’re not commenting on what Kyle did other than he has great taste in coffee. But that shit is too hard these days
I’m going to take the opportunity of this post to, once again, state very clearly the following: In approaching 200 articles over the last 4 years & 10 months, I’ve been quite consistent in everything I’ve written. So, if anyone ever reads my name tagged to a post that doesn’t sound like me, then it isn’t.
I say this because the Spooks surely have back doors to everything. Including WordPress.
You thinks their behavior is bad….check out Fox News.
Steps needed to fool a conservative:
Step one: Make bleating noises about muh conservative principles
Step two: Profit.
Queue the governor of S. Dakota….
Consorting with the Enemy?! Really! The New York TImes!! Holy shit these guys are stoopid.
Firstly, their coffee tastes like brewed shit. Auntie knows first hand as a nice as heck Army vet who played in the sandbox twice including Faluja, believed all the company gung-ho bullshit and had a subscription. INsisted Auntie try some. Can you say liquid crap?
Secondly, all the ads were over the top with armor and blowing up shit and machine guns and all the toys and destruction G.I.s like. Big fucken whoop. Do you support D.A.V.? AMVETS? Volunteers at V.A. medical centers? V.F.W.? The Legion? Thought so.
Thirdly, Auntie hopes they go out of business real soon as the lying and wokeness has broken through loud and clear.
Or maybe they should just rename the company Black Lives Matter Coffee Company © and sell their shit to the population segment who will appreciate some YT cultural appropriation and expensive lousy coffee.
Auntie suggests you try some BLue Mountain coffee from Jamaica if your feeling wealthy and like having an astonishing cup of the nectar of the Gods.
As for the BRCC -FUck ’em.
Jeebus H. Krist….it’s just coffee. A bunch of joos con you into buying coffee and the butthurt never ends.
Its just coffee.
Arch- well, I guess you don’t want to hear about the joos who run conservative sites that are liberal as hell but LOVE the huge income stream from the mountains of advertising. I could go on with maybe a hundred example of how Joe average gets suckered but won’t. Again, it’s just fukkin coffee. Get butthurt over shit that matters, joos who fake being conservatives is old news.
They are ALL wokesters. No exceptions. If they aren’t woke, they will be cancelled. Lindell is the only one I can think of that has held out. Not Cathay, not the Hobby Lobby guy, no one. All in complete thrall to a dollar that is soon going the fuck away. It won’t be too long when woke status will determine whether one is allowed to engage in commerce on the buy or sell side.
Black Rifle Coffee is America. You may not like that, but facts are stubborn things…
Well, the idiots stepped into it. They can kiss the company good-bye because no one is now going to buy their coffee. Not the woke leftists nor the conservative ‘patriots’ who were their base. As to their being jewish? Referencing a popular stereotype as regards jews, it would seem neither one of them are shrewd businessmen.
They must hope that by being ‘woke’ they’ve enhanced their brand. Kinda like Coca Cola. when you trash white people by buying into the the ‘white privilege’s/supremacist’ narrative, you lose boatloads of customers as well you should. …
I guess we’ll say I dodged this one. I looked into it. I’ve rarely consumed Starsucks, yet have a few times when it has been a convenience factor. I have preferred either roasting my own beans or buying Jacob’s® which is a German subsidiary of Kraft Foods®. I have yet to discover any American coffee that is as full-flavored as several European brands. But looking into Black Rifle® just to show my support and hopefully get some good coffee; it was just too expensive. So after looking a few times, I finally just said ‘Nope, not doing that.’
Shit, I just thought everyone woke up and had a Miller Lite for an eye opener here. I’m disappointed
Piss on all coffee except coffee cake.
IKR? I got over the stuff years ago when I quit smoking in the morning. Dip is better with a diet coke then a pastry and Milky Way bar or something. I quit amazon but haven’t found a sub for wokacola.
Considering the founder of the company is a member of the tiny hat crew this doesn’t shock me terribly.
Jews
“Sure enough is a bizarre sight in the middle of this shit.”
Clean; Apocalypse Now.
Their whole marketing strategy was aimed at the people they hate.
Well.
I never bought their coffee and have never taken a sip of it.
Money corrupts people, I’ve seen it too many times. You start pulling down half a million a year or more and every principle or value you’ve ever held becomes corrupted. God knows why, but it’s true.
It is harder for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle and all that jazz.
Its not the money that corrupts. Its the love of so called ‘money’
Norm- The truth is, dez joos consider any money/property of the goyim to be fair game. They have no problem lying to the goy to clean out their pockets, it’s what they do.
Do they love money…. OH YEAH.
Its the POWER money can buy you, and how you abuse it. Nothing wrong with loving money.
support your local small business coffee roaster……not this pos.
Their coffee is as delicious as the tears of those who are threatened by the fact their founder is a Jew. I’m picking up two more bags today.
Yummee.
Francis- Send Archeo a bag while you are at it. As Mrs. Olsen would say in the tv ads, “It’s the richest kind of coffee”. That may be before your time IDK.
LMAO- People should consider the giveaway fact that THEY WERE C.I.A. CONTRACTORS meaning they really are scumbag people. They can talk about the Ashkenazi Jew shit all they want, but the positive thing I see about it is, they will always throw their business to the gutter just to show how woke they are. See what (((the owners))) did to their MLB, NBA, and MLFB.
Please. You can’t even get conservatives to stop going to Starbucks. If they want a product, they’ll get it regardless of where the company stands. BRC will be just fine.
