  1. This is Jana, one of our most photogenic HR members. We think she called all of our employees trash at the last meeting but to be fair to Jana, that could have been anyone at the table. Our memory is not so great when it comes to self-accountability.

    Aren’t we such a quirky and fun megacorp? Drink Coke and make it the only drink you have the entire day, you little shit. I will lobby the government to make you pay for your own insulin shots because it eats into my quarterly profit and so help me- Ah! Sorry about that! Drink Coke!

  2. I feel like another finger just curled on the global monkey’s paw.

  3. They should push the national pride angle by focusing on Fanta, the Coke product developed under the Nazis due to the trade embargo against them. Germans would love that, right?

  5. Trump has turned America in to a pariah state – people HATE America now, that is bad business – but this fucker bankrupted his companies over and over again.

  6. This is right up there with Subway who is now running a promo in Canada and labeling their 6″ subs as 15.24 cm subs, to make them “measurably more Canadian”

  8. Made in Germany, profits for America, still sold in Russia.

  9. Not the first time Coca-Cola has had to do a rebrand in Germany. Not the only thing similar between this time and last time.

  10. I’ve been wondering how to refer to this troubled time. “U.S. image crisis.” One possibility. I also remember “Dynamic macro economic environment.” I think I’ll just stick with Shit Show, for now anyway.

  11. “Coca Cola, made in Germany. sometimes war.” just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

  12. Desperation kicking in by MAGA supporting companies. Funny how that goes

  13. Attention European and Canadian friends…

    Please put these companies on the hot seat. Ask if they endorse and agree with whatever awful thing the Pedophile said about your country. Insist they go on record one way or another.

  17. Who tf is gonna fall for this shit? They’ve had bottling facilities in German for decades on end. They’re still banned in my household, fritz-kola all day bby

  19. >According to the company, many Germans are unaware that most Coca-Cola sold in the country is already bottled locally.

    Really? You really think that “many Germans” think it’s bottled and shipped from the US because it’s Coca-Cola?

    Lolmao….no.

  21. Coca-Cola can eat shit, made in Germany and profits funnelled to the USA with zero tax.

  22. I cannot describe my fucking anger at this child raping piece of shit having destroyed my country

  23. Unlikely to work. Germans aren’t stupid like most Americans.

  24. Too much sugar in Coca-Cola. Not recommended to drink it.

  25. Trump is amazing…at destroying America as a brand. lmao

  26. That’s cool, I’m still not buying American owned products whenever I can and coca cola is a really ez replacement since, honestly? It kinda sucks.

  27. Good luck. Nothing screams more “AMERICA !!!” than this diabete inducing shit

  28. We should make them put “Profits go to ******” on items as well as where it’s made

  31. Rebranding and parallel brands should not be allowed. Owned by company X, label it as company X.

  35. i refuse to believe the majority of germans think CCcorp is shipping bottle crates, gastro-canisters and cans from the usa.

  36. Yeah, doesn’t matter. We know that it’s made here but we also know that the money goes to the US, so fuck it. Maybe “thanks” to the orange idiot because now I know that we have better tasting cola from local companies where all the money stays here.

  37. Don’t buy american products. Don’t support this shitshow. There is literally a WORLD of alternatives out there. ❤️

  38. I don’t care if it’s bottled in Germany when all the profits go to the USA

  39. Haven’t had a Coca Cola product since last year and will keep it that way.

  40. I don’t like these new Coca Cola ads, they’re creepy.

    These random figures presented, faintly reminiscent of some distant neighbor, staring menacingly at me as if to say, if you don’t drink this urinal bleach, this chemical bomb, as toxic as tobacco, which I help produce from totally good, potable water in an underpaid job, I will lose this job, and it’s your very personal fault. Besides, they seem to signal, there’s someone with a loaded gun pointed at my groin right next to the camera, while the plant managers also threaten to throw my kids and the dog in the big tank behind me where they dissolve all the other bodies in this sticky brown brew. Eww!

    Freaks me out.

  41. Haven’t had Coca Cola since the boycott started. Don’t miss it at all

  42. If American companies have to conceal the origin of their products in order to stay in business, then something must have gone very wrong back at home.
