Coca-Cola Won’t Let You Personalize a Can With ‘Jesus’ But Allows ‘Satan’
A viral video showing a man’s attempt to personalize a can of Coca-Cola with the phrase “Jesus loves you” has sparked outrage online, with some Christians calling for a boycott of the beverage company.
Texas man Antwoine Hill was visiting the Coca-Cola store over a weekend, using a machine that allows customers to customize their canned soda.
Hill was able to write the words Allah, Buddha, and even Satan, but the machine refused to allow him to write the word Jesus.
Hill filmed the incident and posted the video to his Facebook account, where it went viral, sparking outrage among many Christians who are fed up with being discriminated against by major corporations concerned with maintaining a woke image.
In the viral recording, Hill types in phrases while recording the screen of the machine.
“You can put ‘Allah loves you’. Or you could even put, let me see……. ‘Buddha loves you’,” he explains.
“But you cannot even type in the word Jesus.”
An error message appears when he presses the final “s” in Jesus. “Sadly, we cannot automatically allow this text on the can!” it reads.
The machine offers the option of asking a store representative for assistance, with a button for “store override.”
Hill presses the back button and types in “Satan loves you,” which is allowed.
He attempts to write Jesus one more time and receives the same error message.
The video has spread to other virtual communication platforms, including X, where #BoycottCocaCola and #BoycottCoke are trending.
“Budlight Coca-Cola,” and “Go woke, Go broke,” are among the frequently posted phrases posted under the hashtag.
