John Mackey, the founder of Whole Foods, is now sending out a dire warning about the danger posed to America by radical socialists.
As The Daily Wire reports:
Whole Foods founder John Mackey warned that socialists are “taking over” every facet of American society, and promised he’ll have much more to say when he steps down as CEO of the trailblazing supermarket chain.
Mackey, who founded the company in 1980 and stayed on to run it after selling it to Amazon for $13.7 billion in 2017, said freedom-hating fascists have seized control of companies, education, and even the military. The explosive comments came in an interview with Reason magazine.
“I feel like socialists are taking over,” @WholeFoods CEO John Mackey tells @reason. “I believe in liberty and capitalism. Those are my twin values. And I feel like…a lot of the liberties that I’ve taken for granted most of my life…are under threat.”https://t.co/M9VC9pOone

Even now, the younger generation that the supermarket industry relies on to unload trucks, stock shelves, and man the registers “don’t seem to want to work,” he said. The problem is most acute in Democrat-run big cities, he said.
“They only wanna work if it’s really purposeful, and [something] they feel aligned to,” he said. “You can’t hope to start with meaningful work. You’re going to have to earn it over time. Some of the younger generation doesn’t seem to be willing to pay that price, and I don’t know why.”
Mackey also said that he believes that some of America’s most precious freedoms, including freedom of speech, are now under threat due to the threat of radical socialism.
Make sure WF wont go “woke” then, Name names
Will WF Go “woke” or No
Makes me want to shop there but then I don’t want to help bloat Amazons purse & power.
Amen needs to told everywhere our country is going down when it does the people will be sorry you will own nothing and they will tell you to be happy
He’s 1000% right. This younger generation is killing everything and it’s gonna get worse.
Obviously, John Mackey doesn’t even know what socialism is, like conservatives in general in America . There are no “radical socialists” in the Democratic party . Alexandria Ocasio -Cortez is not a socialist, nor is the independent Bernie Sanders .
The real threats to freedom, progress, justice , equality and prosperity in America are the following : Trump and the entire Republican party with a few exceptions , greedy, ruthless. corporate. magnates ( not all of them are greedy and ruthless but too many are ) , and the Christian Taliban – the religious right .
These people are FASCISTS . And Trump attempted to make himself America’s fascist dictator rather than our president , which is why he had to be voted out of office in 2020 !
He has it right.. even understated.
