Jennifer Sey, former USA gymnast and the brand president of Levi's has revealed she has been fired for repeatedly speaking out against draconian COVID restrictions in schools, and turned down $1million in severance pay that she was offered on the condition she wouldn't publicly share why she had been ousted. Sey, 52, has repeatedly spoken out against school shut-downs and mask mandates since the start of the pandemic.(Snip)She stopped speaking out in November, after being told she was on track to become the next CEO, but says she told last month it was 'untenable' for her to stay because outside detractors put pressure on the company to fire

Levi's hasn't gotten a penny from me or mine in over 30 years, when they went political and started manufacturing outside the USA, but I'd stop buying their products all over again if they could.

Same as #1. As a kid, up until the 90s, I wore Levis exclusively. When they went all pro-homosexual, I stopped buying. I HAD been using Carhart jeans for years, now will be seeking another brand as Carhart is now just the same sort of insane leftist crap as Levis. Maybe Wrangler..... So, the rich MUST have the children poisoned with these mRNA shots. Willing to keep her quiet to the tune of $1 million. They really do want us all dead.

As a kid born in the 1940's I wore button fly 501 Levi's daily - but when they stepped on their dick in the early 2000's with all the political crap, I kicked them to the curb and never looked back. F Levi Strauss & Co.

wore Levis all my life...until they declared war on the NRA/2nd amendment. Wear Wranglers now.(George Strait/Classic/original cut) "Back in the day", you could go get measured at the Levi's Home Store in SF, and they would make you jeans to your exact measurements, same cost. Needed more? Just send a letter or phone in the order, be ready in a couple weeks..

Wondering if there are any lawyers out there willing to sue Levi. Wrongful termination would be a place to start then maybe hostile work place and throw in discrimination. Could be quite profitable.

The Levi brand made it clear some years ago that it considers homosexual behvior as normal. A wrong statement and a simply wrong idea. Let them go. Buying a pair of pants elsewhere is not difficult.

This is good to know. There are alternatives to Levi's: Lee Jeans and Wrangler's. Wranglers is the true cowboy jeans. Of course there's all kinds of designer jeans. When I have a choice, I do make brand decisions considering the corporation's values and support of freedom of expression. Mussolini, the "father of facism" is quoted as saying: “Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power”. It is not a stretch to claim that corporations that do not allow freedom of expression are, in fact, facist.

Well the brand gives you a subtle warning with the fact that their name (Levi) is an anagram for "Evil" and "Vile". Given their current proclivities I'm surprised they haven't put a zipper on the butt of their jeans.

FTA: "She was told to stop making public comments about the lockdowns and was branded 'racist'" Public school lockdowns had a disparate impact on minorities. When the teachers' unions shut down the public schools, the rich, upper-middle income, and even most middle income families could afford to send their kids to private schools that remained open. A disproportionate number of minorities are low income and could not. So, people who support lockdowns are the racists.

Levi's has gone all WOKE. Their latest all woke ads resemble the united colors of Benneton ads featuring every race and color running wild saving the planet "buying better". Apparently buying Levi's will save the planet. Whatever..... They are expensive, ill fitting jeans for young people of color. As part of saving the planet, you must submit to the COVID mandates. If you don't, you don't fit the Levi's profile.

Crime in Atlanta is continuing to spiral out of control, with homicides on track to beat last year's 30-year high of 158 murders. According to statistics released by the Atlanta Police Department on Friday, homicides are up 43 percent so far this year compared to the same period in 2021, with 20 total homicides so far in 2022 compared to 14 last year. The Atlanta Police Department has said 'irresponsible gun ownership' has led to many of the shootings this year, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, after more than 2,000 firearms were stolen from vehicles in Atlanta last year.(Snip)'We are living in a war zone in Buckhead,'

Quintez Brown, 21, was arrested and charged with attempted murder shortly after Monday's shooting in Louisville, Kentucky, in which Democratic candidate Craig Greenberg narrowly avoided the bullet. But he was released from prison and placed under house arrest just two days after the shooting when a BLM chapter, the Louisville Community Bail Fund, posted his $100,000 bond. In the months leading up to the shooting, Brown's social media posts showed an increasing interest in Black nationalist and pan-Africanist leaders,

A library in Iraq looted and badly burned by Islamic State militants has re-opened. Fighters burnt at least 10,000 books at Mosul University during the IS takeover of the city in 2014. In all, around 85 per cent of the library’s collection was lost. Founded in 1921, it had previously been the second richest library in Iraq, after the Central Library in Baghdad. The refurbished building, which was reopened by the United Nations Development Programme, will initially house 32,000 books with a view to eventually rebuilding a million-strong collection. The two-storey Library is next to the bustling Student Centre and recently reopened Theatre Hall.

Things like this turn students into the kind of mindless drones who think as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez does.
