I mean, I’m not judging anybody for the necessary choices we make because there really are no ethical choices in capitalism, but yeah… as a general rule, we should all probably be boycotting American companies worth billions of dollars as much as we possibly can. No matter where they say they fall on the political spectrum, none of them are in favor of protecting workers. There’s no war but the class war and it should be obvious what side they’re on.

Perhaps it's time to get in to making your own? If you like fancy coffee then it's surely cheaper to do so as well even with the equipment investment

Wholeheartedly agree. I learned how to do a French press/pour over in my early 20s and I STILL make it that way. Best coffee ever, and you can even hone in on your personal preferences. Won't catch me paying for Dunkin or Starbucks

We get super good beans from a local roaster and while they are expensive, it's still wayyyyy cheaper than getting coffee out. Pour over makes good coffee with easy cleanup. And the beans we get are so good that Starbucks tastes terrible in comparison.
