National retailer calls MLK holiday ‘Republicans are racists weekend’ in letter to customers

A national spice retail company sent out an email to its customers calling Republicans “racist” before the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday weekend.

The Wisconsin-based Penzeys Spices company sent out an email to all its customers the morning of Jan. 14 with the subject line “Republicans Are Racists Weekend,” Fox 6 Milwaukee reported.

“If you are a Republican voter you are now cheesed off. You were promised that there would never be any accountability for your support of the party of open ‘textbook’ racism,” Penzey CEO Bill Penzey reportedly said in the email.

“Sorry, but for the betterment of all Americans, you included, we’ve decided to end that rule. And I really don’t care what your race is or how many of your friends ‘happen to be’ whatever,” Penzey said, Fox 6 Milwaukee reported. “None of that excuses you,” Penzey added.

The company posted a copy of the email on its Facebook page, which drew backlash and criticism. One comment said “I just threw out my ‘Be Kind Penzeys’ magnet. What a hypocritical company,” Fox 6 Milwaukee reported. Penzey accused customers who supported former President Donald Trump of committing an act of “racism” by voting for Trump in 2016.

In a 2016 Facebook post titled “Cooking trumps racism,” Penzey wrote “You really are a good bunch, but you just committed the biggest act of racism in American history since Wallace stood in the schoolhouse doorway 53 years ago,” Fox 6 Milwaukee reported.

“Take ownership for what you have done and begin the pathway forward,” the post reportedly said.

Meanwhile, in 2019, the spice company spent almost $100,000 on Facebook ads calling for the then-president’s impeachment, according to Fox 6 Milwaukee.

Penzeys Spices did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

I quit going to Penzey's in Overland Park, KS last year when the county was no longer pushing any mask mandates, but Penzey's decided to keep it, and had people outside the door refusing entry to anybody. They've already lost my business..............FOREVER!

Never heard of Penzey's, and, hopefully, this is the last time I do.

I used to love walking into their store and smelling all the spices. That's where I first became acquainted with Vietnamese Cinnamon.......OH! There's nothing like it! The taste is WONDERFUL!

How retarded does a company have to be to PRESUME that at least HALF of their own customers, for cryin' out loud, are RACIST?

Yep.  The teeny bobbers are running the show, and the show's about to end.  We hope.

He's living off the back of the company his parents started in 1956 . Its what spoiled asshole children do that have never needed money to survive and live large off inheritance .
The gene pool on this one isn't looking too well either
