Starbucks has banned Pride decorations in ALL of its U.S. stores halfway through Pride Month, the company’s workers union revealed Tuesday.
“For the last two weeks, Starbucks workers have taken to social media to report that the company is no longer allowing Pride decorations in-store,” Starbucks Workers United tweeted.

The workers’ union noted Starbucks, which has normally been an active supporter of the LGBTQ movement, has been paying attention the nationwide boycotts against corporate Pride virtue-signaling that began with Bud Light and accelerated with Target, which both lost billions of dollars in market capitalization over the last several weeks.
“For the last two weeks, Starbucks workers have taken to social media to report that the company is no longer allowing Pride decorations in-store. This seems to be the first year the publicly ‘pro-LGBTQ+’ company has taken this kind of stance,” the union wrote.
