Like those bozos can afford anything but Walmart and dollar tree get the fuck outta here
I love it when the billionaires turn against each other. It confuses MAGA.
Good piss them off make them cry just like their orange bitch baby wannabe king.
Seems the overton window has shifted far enough to the right that walmart execs are now what counts as the left.
I might be mixing her up with someone else, but I think she’s a progressive activist and has never been involved in running the company. She’s not an exec, she’s an heiress.
Shhh, don’t let the MAGAs hear this. It’s hilarious.
I mean, I’m honestly not surprised. I’ve been waiting for the billionaire class to rise up against Trump for a while now. If Trump were a competent autocrat, I’d be more worried, since they might all start competing for his favor in order to reap the benefits of crony capitalism. But the honeymoon is over, and Trump is very clearly extremely incompetent and toxic for business. He is scaring and deporting their low wage labor, tanking their stock prices and lowering profits with his tarrifs, and destabilizing potential international business deals with his erratic style of governing. Their increasing discontent with the current administration will drive cooperation rather than competition among them, and they will use their sizeable resources to neuter the administration.
A king can only rule so long as the court supports him.
This is awesome. Many of them rely on the low prices of walmart to survive. I can’t wait for them to punish themselves even harder.
Themselves and Walmart. It’s like watching Godzilla fight Mothra, with any luck they’ll both lose
Rodan. Mothra is cool
Sure, I don’t actually know Godzilla lore, like at all
Well, you knew Godzilla and Mothra so you are doing something right so far!
Mothra is the kaiju GOAT.
I’m pretty sure Mothra is a moth
Gamera would fuck them all up. It’s a giant turtle with jets! Nothing can stop that.
Funny that MAGA folks are saying to boycott, there’s some rural towns where Walmart is the only thing that they have lol
They’re gonna eat their own faces now and say “I didn’t mean to be a leopard! It was Bidens fault”
the only way WM is going to close stores, if the red counties suddenly starts taxing the stores, which they wont.
Republicans are retarded
Republicans are removed
If only…
Does it say removed for you? I’ve got the word. Some kind of censor setting?
Im not looking for it, just curious
It’s lemmy.ml that censors it. I see it just fine here.
Thank the mods
It hurt itself in the confusion!
This is a good take on Christy and Walmart and the real reason they are funding the No King events.
Care to summarize so I don’t have to get icky from Insta?
As the OP posted, Christy Walton, ie Walmart family, is funding this NO KINGS charade, points to the bottom of the adds showing she is paying for this. He also points out she is worth nearly 20 billion dollars. Do you think Christy is involved in authoritarianism causes or human right abuses? NO! He points out in articles that Walmart is the biggest corporate welfare queen (no shock,) and that they (Christy) are doing this to preserve cheap labor so they don’t have to pay. He compares China’s lowest 50% to ours. China’s lowest 50% holds twice as much wealth as our lowest 50%. He points out China, where we get all our cheap goods, is able to pay their workers, and the US somehow…cant. It is all about corporations, and in this case, Walmart specifically, not wanting to pay a living wage and preserving this.
Edit to add, he also points out the irony of a NO KINGS protest against a KING, funded by an OLIGARCH.

Class traitors are welcome.
Should they be eaten first to spare them the suffering of seeing the rest be devoured, or last to allow them to live as long as possible before their inevitable demise?
Conspiracy theory guy that loves RFK Jr. He assumes Christy Walton funds anti-Trump ads because Walmart wants to hire illegal immigrants. Actually she’s just a libbed out white woman who lives in southern California and has more money in solar companies than Walmart because most of the Walmart stock bypassed her and went to her oldest son.
lol, they ain’t turning on Wally World. It’s a vital food source for maga. #fakenews
Maybe they’ll starve themselves.
They can join me in my almost 30 year boycott of Walmart
There is no Walmart by me. I’ve been to one probably a handful of times in my life and was amazed at the size and the various products they offered. It was an overwhelming experience.
Most of those products coming from China where they pay their lowest 50% a wage that is double what our lowest 50% get.
It’s very convenient and the prices are generally very good. But that’s because they use their size to bully the manufacturers into giving them better deals.
Exactly, also Amazon is the king of these tactics. It is also late-stage capitalism, or better put, crony capitalism. Capitalism is suppose to be about free and open trade, but these predatory tactics make it unfair for competition, especially for medium to small businesses. This is partially why we in the US are in decline…and groceries cost more than they should.
It’s the tariffs that are increasing the cost of food.
Walmart, the biggest corporate welfare queen.
I don’t think this will really amount to much. Where else are they going to shop that abuses labor as much as Walmart to keep prices low?
Great job Walmart. Do not stand with the monster in the white house and his MAGAt followers.
Walmart released a statement to Newsweek saying, “The advertisements from Christy Walton are in no way connected to or endorsed by Walmart. She does not serve on the board or play any role in decision making at Walmart.”
I’ve been deliberately dehumanizing Trumpers for long enough that these articles make no sense to me at first. Who cares if a simple creature had an automatic response we’ve all known was common? “Extra extra! Man dangles carrot, horse tries to get it!” It’s a quaint, goofy society that gets excited over that.
I guess trump supporters superficially resemble human beings but I still don’t think it’s newsworthy for them to repeat the sounds we make. Just say floopergoop dinglewhams are progressive! and now the parrots say they hate the thing you just made up. How long until people get bored of this?
If I had a dollar for every conservative who threatened to boycott Walmart, I’d have twenty or thirty grand, easy.
Maga is going to be pissed when they find out their boss is a Democrat.
