From Breitbart: Coca-Cola is facing boycott calls after people on social media revealed that the company was not allowing “Trump 2024” or “Jesus” to be placed on the cans.
While people attempting to personalize cans with messages such as, “Trump 2024” or “Jesus loves you,” have received messages stating that the name is “not approved,” other messages such as “Harris Walz 2024,” “Satan” and “Allah” were reportedly allowed, according to the Daily Mail.
Messages supporting Vice President Kamala Harris, satan, and Allah were reportedly allowed prior to the company fixing a “glitch,” according to the outlet.
The X account for Libs of TikTok posted photos showing that “Harris Walz 2024” had been an approved message on a can, while the message “Trump 2024” was met with a warning that said, “The name you requested is not approved.”
According to the Daily Mail, after being hit with massive backlash, Coca Cola has responded by saying the “glitch” has now been fixed. The Daily Mail wrote:
The updated version now bans all monikers that are ‘trademarked, political in nature, names of countries, celebrities, religious figures, as well as anything that could be considered offensive for other reasons,’ the personalizer tool says.
The issue was first highlighted by Facebook user Antwoine Hill, who posted the following video and wrote, “This was weird at the Coke Store, you can type in any name but Jesus.”
Conservatives have reacted in outrage, and are calling for a boycott of Coca Cola.
🚨 BREAKING: The Coca Cola boycott is officially happening.
Their new custom website allows the use of “Harris 2024” but prohibits “Trump 2024” due to it being deemed “political in nature” or “offensive.”
This is election interference.

Can’t use Jesus either. What if your name IS Jesus or Donald Trump?
Can they make that can?
