... well that's kind of impressive

... apparently Tick Tock (major importer of rooibos/redbush tea to the UK), who also own Dragonfly, who were already established to be Racist As Fuck (they have got rid of the landing page showing a picture an entire family of old white men in cricket whites, but they still boast about the business having been in the family for four generations and they still literally have pictures of benevolent white overseers) are also associated with Eleven O'Clock Tea, which is really definite about spelling rooibos as "rooibosch".

you know.

JUST IN CASE YOU WEREN'T AWARE THAT THEY WERE ACTUALLY REALLY DUTCH. DUTCH DUTCH DUUUUUUUUUUTCH DUTCH DUTCH.

... I am so fucking impressed that Racism Tea has an Even More Racist Subsidiary, just in case you wanted more racism with your racism. WELL DONE CAPITALISM YOU DONE GOOD.

I first saw this early in the morning and my eyes tracked from "old white men in cricket whites" to the all caps, which I read as "BUTCH BUTCH BUTCH." The BDutch have a lot to answer for.

Provenance may explain why I haven't seen R tea lately.

Unfettered capitalism doesn't treat people well. And that seems to be a feature.
