🔥 Starbucks Sales Are Collapsing — But They Won’t Admit It’s the Boycott & More

Starbucks is in freefall. The coffee giant is bleeding profits, laying off workers, losing global market share — and quietly being dethroned. But instead of acknowledging the global boycott over Gaza, Starbucks is pretending nothing’s wrong. Here’s the truth behind their collapse.

📉 The Numbers Don’t Lie — But Starbucks Does

Starbucks just posted some of its worst financials in years:

• 🔻 U.S. sales fell 4% in the last quarter
• 🔻 Customer traffic dropped 8%
• 🔻 Operating income plummeted 22%
• 🔻 Over 1,100 layoffs just announced
• 🔻 $15.1M in losses in Malaysia — a direct result of the Palestine boycott

That last one? It’s not just a blip. Starbucks has now logged five consecutive quarterly losses in Malaysia alone. And similar trends are emerging globally.

But instead of facing the music, Starbucks is blaming... everything else:

• “Menu complexity”
• “Slow service”
• “Labor inefficiencies”
• Even the weather

Nowhere — not once — do they acknowledge the mass boycott movement that has been building since they sued their own union for tweeting “Solidarity with Palestine.”

🤐 Starbucks Still Won’t Say the “B” Word

The company’s denial is getting harder to maintain. In the Middle East, entire markets have turned away. In the U.S., protestors are confronting stores, organizing sit-ins, and mobilizing online.

In Saudi Arabia, the government’s Public Investment Fund slashed its stake in Starbucks by 42%, citing public backlash over U.S. support for Israel.

And yet, CEO Brian Niccol — freshly hired to “revive” the brand — keeps dodging the core issue. His fix? Layoffs, menu tweaks, and shorter wait times.

📢 Meanwhile, a New Challenger Is Rising

As Starbucks falters, competitors are swooping in. China’s Luckin Coffee is preparing a U.S. takeover with $2 lattes — undercutting Starbucks’ pricing and promising a brand untainted by war.

Back home, Starbucks baristas are still underpaid, overworked, and union-busted. Meanwhile, execs are raking in profits — or at least, what’s left of them.

💸 Oh, And They’re Dodging Taxes Too

Let’s not forget: a new report just revealed Starbucks funneled over $1.3 billion in profit through a Swiss subsidiary to avoid taxes. All while pretending to be a “socially responsible” company.

This tax dodge? Completely legal — and completely immoral.

🇵🇸 The Reality Starbucks Refuses to Face

Starbucks can cut jobs, simplify menus, and blame bad weather — but none of that explains the global collapse of public trust.

They chose to silence pro-Palestine voices. They sued their own workers. And now they’re paying the price.

👊 What You Can Do

📉 Starbucks is down 15% this month alone — because boycotts work.
🛑 If you’re still buying Starbucks, stop.
💥 If you run a business, ditch them — now.
🐾 Use tools like Boycat to find ethical coffee brands that don’t profit off silence.

This isn’t just a brand crisis. It’s a reckoning. And we’re not done yet.
