@sinituulia Capitalism, the classic villain for 33% of America's sins, (the other 66% is split between racism and patriarchy) has dismantled a great deal of local stores and also made franchising locations even more common. I'm certain there's better research out there but one article I looked into holds that 78% of coffee shops in the US are corporate chain coffee shops

This is more than a personal failing but a systemic stemming one from capitalism killing off local

@sinituulia Hence why I'm all for the dismantling and abolition of capitalism and the investor class who are exploiting coffee farmers as well as the retail workers in those coffee shops. I may be a Cuban American, but I'm a Cuban American that doesn't drink coffee and favors anarchic collectivism

@Amimoregore Yes, to all of that. But they could have just made their coffee at home and circumvented multiple issues!
