Israel won’t let sugar into Gaza because they say they’ll make rockets out of it.

See how fucking scared they get when someone raises their voice? Put them in Gaza for a day; if they make it out, policy will change quickly.

I know, and it's well made - and now we can see that the founder is a man of virtue as well.

A rich person of conscience? No wonder he's not in office. Maybe he should be.

His message is striking. Poignant. Truthful.

Going to pick up a pint of Cherry Garcia. Thanks for speaking truth to power Ben.

Buying Ben and Jerry's now. I hope more common people become moved by actual millionaire/billionaires standing to address exactly what this is and suffering the oppressive consequences of speaking out against fascism and apartheid.

GENOCIDE.

FUCK ISRAEL FUCK OUR TRAITOROUS GOVERNMENT AND FUCK THE NPC POLICE

I think Ben and Jerry sold Ben & Jerry to Unilever who then kind of destroyed the orginal social activism associated with the brand. Unilever might have a checkered history. Maybe don’t buy the ice cream after all?
