I read that McDonalds will continue to pay Russian employees their salaries while the restaurants are closed. WTF? How does that hurt the Russians economically if McDonalds continues to pay them? McDonalds should be donating those Russian salaries to provide humanitarian aide to the Ukrainians.

[jakem]

Thanks. Now I will never by from these companies ever again.

[jeffbaca]

Boycott these companies now and forever, obviously these companies value money over lives.

[OfficialSavo]

Each one of those companies are our enemy And I refuse to spend another dollar with them

[m.w.]

BOYCOTT! And the great thing about these businesses is that none of them are a 'need' for consumers. BOYCOTT!

[Laborkei]

Just came back from the Grocery Store... I did not buy any Coke until they announced they are out of Russia.

[AlbireoStar]

IMMEDIATE BOYCOTT OF THESE COMPANIES WORLDWIDE !

[meegen]

You can keep opening there, it's your choice. I will keep avoid your products; it's my choice, too.

[kayenbey]

Will not buy from these companies. Politics, business and human suffering can never, sadly, be separated.

[bobbydeeg]

When the swedish say hell no we don't support this but these big corporate brands refuse to. Yeah welcome to corporate greed. These are the same companies that inflated prices on us on a regular basis without provocation let alone inflation. Just saying.

[EcceHomo]

Can’t cancel a whole country now can we…

[macmcleod]

I wrote Coca-Cola heartfelt email last night so I am happy to see that they changed their mind today.

[ericdesouza]

McDonald's did announce a day after this was posted that they would temporarily shut down restaurants in Russia.

[tananga]

Russians have blood on their hands. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦❤🇺🇦❤🇺🇦❤🇺🇦

[Necromonger]

Sanctimonious BS is what it is. Means nothing.

[sandybeach]

I will never buy any of their products again.

[MrOliveroky]

Why should they close? When U.S attacked Afganistan, Iraq, and Libya... why did they not boycott the U.S?

[jamimoon]

Pepsi Coke McDonald's Starbucks yum already pulled out

[kaael]

what does any commercial brand have anything to do with the conflict?

[dantepearl]

Until Putin has them closed and arrested as "Ango-Western Spies" 🤣
