I know it’s the second Costco related thing I’ve posted on this, but it’s a pretty big deal.
If these MAGA turds want to try to boycott, I’ll laugh my ass off because this one of the best performing retail stocks in the US in the past 20 years.
Considering I can barely get into the CostCo parking lot for all the people there, I suspect their boycott will amount to little.
If we can get them to boycott Walmart too somehow, we can just starve them out entirely. They can’t afford to boycott the best value in town.
Seriously, and it is even worse any time near Christmas. I, for one, welcome morons boycotting Costco.
Great, no more MAGA at Costco, now I can know everyone there is a liberal hottie.
I too welcome not having to see a MAGA hat in a Costco.
Wow, I’ve never seen that at mine. In fact, I cannot remember the last time I’ve seen one. What state?
Hi, Texan here. I see them at least once a week…
I can believe that. I’m in Colorado, and I’m sure some parts of the state have people still proudly wearing that hat, I mostly spend time in and around Denver and haven’t seen it in quite some time. Last time I saw one was on some Asian School of Mines kid in Golden, I think. But I’m not sure if he wasn’t wearing it ironically?
Arizona, Colorado, Missouri.
I can believe the other two for sure. I’m from CO, and I haven’t seen them in a while, but I don’t go to Colorado Springs much, but mostly around Denver area.
I think the state I saw them the most in was South Dakota, but holy crap, that place is very deeply red.
I hate Costco…but I’m more likely to go now :)
Welcome to Costco. I love you.
Yah I know this place pretty good, I went to law school here.
How many JDs did you need to get in a Costco sized education?
…you went to law school at costco?
in a draft of the script for the 2006 film “idiocracy”, it was originally walmart, but changed to costco (which explains the walmart-type greeter).
oh and i think the theme of 2006 film idiocracy is NOT really “intelligence went down”, that’s to distract people from the real theme which is “corporatism rots the brain”. seriously!
Costco’s legal department being the last remainining Constitutional lawyers in America was not something I expected but am not surprised about, either.
On top of that, Costco could probably make tons of money because of the tariffs if they wanted to. Any time prices skyrocket, retailers that can afford to give things at discounted prices can make a bundle. When everybody’s prices go up, people lose the ability to shop at more expensive places.
I think Costco is doing this because they want to continue prioritizing their customers.
X commenter Leftyslayer complained, “Costco immediately passed the burden to its customers. They took the profits during the good times and now they screw the citizens during downturn. They have no loyalty to the customer.
Actually not true (imagine my surprise at an X user being uninformed)
From another article:
Millerchip said that while Costco was seeing a direct impact from tariffs on imports of some fresh food items from Central and South America, it decided not to increase prices “because they are key staple items” for its customers.
Costco has been eating the costs of the tariffs (at least in some cases)
…but who am I going to believe? Do I really think Leftyslayer would go on the internet and just lie? I’d have thought Leftyslayer would be even more fair and balanced than fake NBC news. /s
Hey now, being objective demands that we lend equal credence to Leftyslayer’s opinions as to Costco’s, or are you some sort of biased person?? 😂
“did mah own research!”
We know they mostly shop at Sam’s Club anyway because Costco doesn’t build in their shitholes. Saving yourselves a 90 minute drive to own the libs.
Ive had a theory that in some places where the wages are super low and life is hard they do not want costco to come in and pay better than all the shitty local factories thats have been taking advantage of people for so long
Yep. We used to live in an area near two Costcos and we knew some people that had several of their (extended) family - adult kids that had moved out and lived in the area as well - working at Costco. They were living middle class lives. Maybe not upper echelon stuff, but it seemed like they had some affinity for the place and they seemed to get treated with an amount of dignity instead of some places that seem to do everything possible to crush the souls of their workers. These people actually seemed…happy. This is even when we ran into them at a Costco store while they were working.
“Yeah! Let’s go somewhere that’ll charge us way more money to pwn the libs!!”
- maga punching themselves in the balls again
Owning the libs so hard.
What’s a magats favorite gun?
A footgun.
GOOD.
Get MAGA out of my Costco. Won’t miss you assholes even for a second.
I wonder which countries these boycotters are from. 70% chance these are bots from Russia, India, or South Asia.
I thought these dumbfucks wanted low prices, LOL?
Now they are butthurt if companies like Costco sue to get that money back that Taco illegally added to the cost of so many things?
Must be Redhat Logic ™.

I’m interested in this. Do you have any examples of dumb shit to say that might get through to people like this?
A lot of times letting them talk and actually listening to what they have to say, they give it directly to you. If you acknowledge their dumb shit, they’re more likely to return the favor.
Like, helping a NASCAR fan get into EVs because of their absolute love of torque isn’t an unreal scenario. They’ll give you the roadmap.

Please, RetHat is a reliable software company. They should be called something else.
How about redcaps?
Stands for Reduced Capability so why not.
Costco will be so much nicer without all the maga mouthbreathers clogging the aisles
So you’re telling me we won’t have to deal with trash at Costco anymore?
I may just switch to the platinum plan.
costco’s doing the right thing
Costco is doing the correct thing.
It’s the right(wing) who are wrong.
that’s what i mean
I’d bet real money that most of the “people” threatening to boycott don’t live on the same continent as a Costco store anyway.
Might be a Kid Rock or two out there machine-gunning their Costco membership card or whatever, but yeah, I would not be surprised if a lot of this is trolls, bots and reverse virtue signaling.
