Shaving company Harry’s appears to have taken the complaints of a Twitter user with only two followers seriously when shaving off its professional relationship with a conservative personality.
A Twitter account named Avi Das (@flyingsodacan1) — created in December 2020 — trigger-tweeted at Harry’s whining about its sponsorship of The Daily Wire host Michael Knowles. The account bleated, “@harrys is sponsoring Michael Knowles. The same @michaeljknowles who is spreading homophobic and transphobic content. He had Joesph [sic] Nicolosi jr as a guest
Their choice.
Was thinking if one of these club razors.
Harry’s no longer in the running.
I gave more followers so...

A high school kid, possibly black because of unique word usage, wanting to gain significance in his dribbly little life, successfully persuaded a large corporation to capitulate to social blackmail, having only two followers. Why so much fear? No huevos aqui! It’s a shame, I liked the shaver.

I have been using Bic and Schick 'disposable' razors bought in 12 packages for decades. Started with Edge gel, an after trying many other shaving cream approaches, including using a mug and brush for a decade, I am back to Edge gel.
I shower before I shave, and make sure the shaving cream has time to soften my beard, and the 'disposable' razors last so long that I lose track....at least a couple of weeks to a month before they start getting dull. I think the shower softens my beard, as does the shaving cream, to the point that the blades are dulled far less, and I get a better shave. The long razor life is a nice side benefit.
Schick or Bic haven't gotten involved in politics, so I still buy their products, and with Schick, it has been about 50+ years of using their products. I hope they keep their yaps shut on politics. Bic razors are about as good, but I use them when I can't find Schick at a good price, like a 12 pack for under $20. Even if each razor cost $2, (it's usually less) if it lasts 3 or 4 weeks (seems like it's more) that's a few cents a day for perfectly good shaves.
No interest in shave clubs, especially if they have lefty politics.

Such weaklings. Such cowards. Such spineless ninnies.
Time to answer the cranks with strength of purpose and confidence in Liberty.
I was in Bed & Bath the other day. The "My Pillow" pillows were nowhere to be found. SO they followed through on their cowardly cave. So i, as a loyal customer many years, will end my patronage, and seal it with a call or an email.
Even during the riots, rampages and looting and fires companies were crumpling under the blm threats, handing over millions, including from Brooks Brothers which has been undergoing bankruptcy! Caving to bullies, surrendering to those who would grind to dust the remains of your business after the pillaging.

I'm not buying the line that this was "someone with 2 followers" who provoked them into action. I am WILLING to be that some "woke" executive at Harry's set up the whole thing b/c they don't like Michael Knowles and/or Daily Wire and they didn't want Harry's to spend its advertising dollars with them.
Step 1: Create a fake account (get at least 2 people to follow it so it looks like an account)
Step 2: Send the tweet lamenting all the *gasp* homophobia (even though it was really about someone comparing transgender mental health to schizophrenics) - As an aside, I know schizophrenics and they are not as crazy as transgenders -- not even close.
Step 3: Harry's promptly tweets back in "faux" disgust at the "beliefs" shared in the video on the Michael Knowles show and vows to pull their marketing dollars
Step 4: Objective achieved -- except now the idiots have to wait for the backlash -- and it will come b/c they advertise on a lot of conservative media outlets.

'airy could use some of Harry's products. Too bad #1 can't use them. They are wonderful. I purchased for my DH.

Rush Limbaugh had it right. When the SJW's tried to get sponsors to drop his show he basically said "go for it". And got new ones right away. Seems there were sponsors waiting in line. Tucker has fought and won as well

Hey Harry's, the conservatives who listen to Michael Knowles are probably clean shaven and might possibly use a Harry's razor. Have you ever seen some of the young liberals? Most have the fashionable long scruffy beards and look like unkept cavemen. They probably don't know what a Harry's razor is. This was a foolish move by some uninformed coward at Harry's who failed to look at their demographics. Harry's probably shot themselves in the foot more by cancelling the ads than if they had left them running.
