Lake City Coffee, as you may know, is a coffee business. We try to keep our website’s content about coffee and not about politics or religion, except on the rare occasion when I just can’t resist poking fun at some woke idiot idea. Yet, I try to keep the conversation about coffee. I really do. The only reason that I’m even writing this blog post “Cancel Culture – Served Up Patriot Coffee Style” is because some of the changes that we’re making at Lake City Coffee affect you.
Old Fashion Business Culture

Why these changes? Good question. And I’m glad that you asked. In the old days your religion was your business; politics was your business; your sex was your business, your race was your business, your family and heritage was your business, your personal life was your business, and your business was your business. And no one seemed to care. America has an attitude and long history of “Just leave me alone”.
Today, there’s a very small, but sadly influential group of people who want to control you. They want to control everything about you, and if they can’t control you, then they attempt to “Cancel Culture”, (the politically correct word for boycott) you out of business. To that end, there are a slew of shortsighted Wokestani vendors/corporations who are either Kowards, Kommies or Kalifornia Kooks “KKKK” that are culling their customer base and their inventory of conservative leaning people and products. Companies like: Google, Facebook, Nike, Starbucks, Costco, Walmart, Amazon, and hundreds of others.
Patriot Coffee Style

As business owners and consumers, Alisha and I do a lot of business with a variety of companies. Much to our chagrin, a few of our vendors are bowing to and trembling in fear of the left’s “Cancel Culture”. Well, we’ve had enough. It’s time that we take a stand for traditional values.
Our country’s founding fathers didn’t quake in their boots when the British put the screws to American businesses, and as patriot coffee roasters, we aren’t either. Remember our founding father’s little tea party in Boston? That was just a subtle message to Great Britain of what was to come.
My message to our Cancel Culture, woke-vendors is this, “Fine, you want an economic war; we’ll gladly give you one; one in which you won’t survive.” We don’t play for fun. We play for keeps.
Conservative Economy

The left, Hollywood, MSM, politicians, and cowardly Wall Street businesses that are bowing to these anti-American demands are currently experiencing a rude awakening, with a “Cancel Culture” of our own. I prefer to call it, the creation of a conservative economy.
This may not be a surprise to you, but Alisha and I daily hear from new patriot coffee customers, that they’re practicing “Cancel Culture” themselves, against those companies considering us as “Deplorables”. They’re looking for small, Mon-n-Pop, patriot companies like ours. So, we’re not alone and neither are you.
Cancel Culture Company Replacements
Below is a list of companies that Lake City Coffee, Alisha, and I have replaced. WHEN…
Technology Replacements

- HostGator started deleting website hosting accounts, without notice, to gun dealers, we changed our hosting company to Epik (who hosts websites for companies like: Breitbart News, Gab, Parler, BitChute, Info Wars, Oath Keepers, Sean Hannity, etc.)
- PayPal started dropping conservative customers, without notice, including the “Re-elect Trump Campaign”; so we switched to Wholesale Processing Systems, owner of DBA 2nd Amendment Processing.
- Google started tracking our every move and selling our data to China, so we switched our internet searching to DuckDuckGo.com. Yes, I know that DuckDuckGo.com are commies too, but at least they’re not Google and they don’t shove their “wokeness” down our throat. I’m still looking for a “conservative” search engine, but haven’t found one.
- YouTube started censoring conservative and Christian videos, so we switched our video hosting to Rumble.
- Facebook started their censoring of conservative content, so we switched to Parler.
- Yelp asked us to donate to the LGBQ cause, I went ballistic and dumped those commie, SOB’s so fast they couldn’t believe my reason for leaving, so they kept calling me for a month to get my account back.
- Apple & Android (Google); both full-blown, hard-core anti-American and pro-China – Now this one, I haven’t cracked yet, but Alisha’s doing the research. The only viable option, as far as I can tell, are dumb phones like Nokia or Blackberry. I haven’t made that switch yet, but I’m close.
Retailer Replacements

- Costco started kicking out anyone carrying a gun, so we started shopping at Mom-n-Pop local businesses.
- Amazon jerked the plug on Parler’s servers and started dropping traditional, classical, and conservative books and authors, so we all but stopped using Amazon. You will notice that there are zero Amazon links on our website. When we shop, we try to buy directly from the vendor’s website. If possible, we buy from small Mom-n-Pop retailers and manufacturers.
- HomeDepot began requiring masks, so we switched to our locally owned Ace Hardware
- Walmart and Krogers went totally social warrior on us, so we now buy all of our groceries from Super 1, a locally owned grocer.
- Gillette (Proctor & Gamble) – started advertising their “Male Toxicity” commercials, I tossed out their POS plastic blades and purchased an 1800’s style straight razor, strop, shaving cream, brush, and bowl from ShaveNation.com. Guess what, over the next 20 years, I’ll probably save thousands of dollars on Gillette’s POS razors. As a result of this little change, my shaves are so close, that I only have to shave every other day.
Entertainment Replacements

- Spotify started expunging their customer base of conservative podcasters, so we dropped Spotify and went back to CD’s and for political analysis we go directly to the websites of our favorite conservatives. Sirus/XM is another alternative.
- Netflix went full bore LGBQ, Woke, Social Warrior, Anti-American, Anti-Christian, and promoted child pornography (Cuties). It took us 2 minutes to cancel our subscription to Netflix. I’m so mad at these commie SOB’s that we’ve barely turned on our TV.
- NFL & NBA started taking a knee, we switched to college ball and we will NEVER go back.
- Our local newspaper couldn’t produce a single edition without promoting LGBQ and BLM nonsense, so we switched to The Epoch Times, perhaps the best reporting newspaper of all time. The writing is exceptionally good and very Pro-USA.
- Hollywood couldn’t produce a move or TV show without including every kind of perversion imaginable, we canceled cable and began streaming (for free) whatever we wanted.
- Fox News went liberal on us too, so we switched to One America News Network and Newsmax.
Made In America
I hear people whining that America doesn’t make anything any more. WRONG! America still makes a lot of stuff. The more complex the product and the more skill required, you’ll usually find it Made In The USA.
What is very difficult to find is coffee equipment made in the USA. Damn near 100% of coffee stuff is made in China. I’m on a mission to find coffee equipment mad in the USA.
If you’ll go to our FAQ tab and click on the article “Best Coffee Equipment”, you’ll find my recommendations and you’ll find a few items Made by Free Americans In The USA.
The Battle For Your Mind
Make no mistake; we are at war. We’ve been at war for quite some time. This is a war for the soul of America. We are fighting for truth and against lies. Any honest student of history can tell you how this will end if we don’t fight back. If we do nothing, we loose. BUT if we fight, then our success is almost assured. All we need is a willingness to change our buying habits. Nothing changes Wall Street and main street faster than cash.
Obviously, we live in challenging times. It’s easy to get depressed about the horrible changes happening in our country. But remember this, there is nothing happening today that can’t be undone tomorrow. Sure, it’ll take work and sacrifice, but we can prevail.
Patriot Coffee or Industrial Coffee
I contend that, for a warrior, these are very exciting times. Come on! Who doesn’t like a good fight? Therefore, the list above is good news. We obviously have alternative technologies from which to choose and alternative places to spend our money. When we vote with our money, we win. Below are a few facts that you may find encouraging.
- Conservative patriots hold a majority of the wealth in America
- Conservatives own 90% of the guns and 99% of the ammo
- The per capita of true born-again Christians in America hasn’t changed in 200 years.
- Most liberals quit after their first failure. Conservatives don’t know when to quit.
- State legislators determine voting laws. Most states are run by Republican legislators.
- Coffee drinkers, on the average, live 4 years longer than non-coffee drinkers.
- Jesus is coming back and when he does, there’ll be hell to pay. I’m glad that I won’t be here to watch it.
Lake City Coffee
OK, I’ll admit, I just made up everything in that above list. But, I’ll bet that I’m right. In fact, I’ll give a free bag of coffee to anyone who can give to me documented proof that my above assertions are correct.
When all is said and done, people’s politics are their business. I really don’t care. I don’t care if they’re white, red, black, or yellow; just as long as when they’re cut, they bleed red, white, and blue.
Alisha and I are excited to be serving our patriot coffee to each and every one of you. If you don’t know us personally, then please send us an email and we’ll add you to our brood of patriot coffee lovers (Pun intended).
Russell, we (wife and I) just wanted to share our support for your patriotic stance on voting with our money. Although the media would have us believe patriotic, sane Americans are in the minority, we are convinced that it is the opposite. Glad to see you are doubling-down during this all-out-war the leftist commies started. I am going to do my best to point other patriots in your direction for all their coffee needs. We are looking forward to our first back of medium roast.
Mike, I couldn’t agree with you MORE. You’re spot on. We need to put our money where our mouth and our values lie.
I didn’t know about your coffee until I received this email from a friend.
As a 20 year LEO I took an oath to the constitution of the United States to protect and serve all people.
The destroyers of liberty (AKA communists) who want to cancel the protectors have no problem calling us whenever they have a problem.
As far as “wokeness” is concerned that’s what I do every morning at 0600 hours. The major contribution by every communist country that has ever existed is to kill its own population and then prey on other nations. Communism is the most evil and vile system that has ever been imposed on human beings.
I’m putting my coffee ☕️ order in shortly to help kick off the day at my department.
Geno, I couldn’t have said it better myself. I look forward to being part of your morning. I’m about to submit a new blogpost titled “America’s 2nd Coffee Revolution”. Let me know what you think.
Way to go. I didn’t know it at the time, but I picked the right place to support with my business. Peace, Joe Buczek.
Joe, Welcome aboard my friend.
Russel,
That was a terrific rambling and very true. I’m considering getting a local group of patriots together to make changes to our local government and local law enforcement leaders, that is , to vet them, and see which are patriots and which are looser lib-tard politicians. The best way to end the madness going on today, is to start with your local government.
Also, I think we as Americans, with, or with out children, need to put our local school board through the ringer and squeeze the sccoundrals out that are brain washing our children.
I enjoyed the read Russel, and I will be making some changes myself.
Thanks for the great coffee and thanks for being a true American Patriot.
I’ll continue to check in and read your ramblings.
Mike my friend, you and your emigrant brothers are the true patriots. You came to American to be PART of the solution. I applaud your parents for having the balls to take the great risk of getting here to American and once here to raise true patriots like you and your brothers. I salute you!!
Hi Russell & Alisha,
Firstly, kudos on a great product….I am for ever spoiled!
Secondly, great rant/article….I’m right there with ya! Switched to DuckDuckGo quite some time ago and wonder of wonders, the truth suddenly reappeared. Go figure. I do a LOT of researching because I’m sick of being lied to by the asswipes that were hired to protect our best interest. I’m quite surprised Failbook hasn’t banned my account. I look up stuff and follow the trail until I’m happy that I’ve found some truth…coffee helps.
Stick to your guns, we will prevail…lets put it this way….legal gun owners in the US have millions of weapons & trillions of rounds, if we were the problem, people would know it.
I’ll leave you with this sentiment; Most people will say the most washed body part in 2020 was the hands. I will disagree and say it was the brain.
Carry on!
Kind regards,
Wendy (George’s friend)
Hello Wendy. You’re married to one crazy son-of-a-gun. I love weirdos like George. You might not be able to take him out in public or to polite society, but you always can count on him for a laugh. Wait! You’re still on Failbook? How’d you manage that. Alisha and I got kicked off long ago. I guess speaking your mind with critical thinking isn’t usually allowed there. Amazing that you’ve lasted this long.
Interesting! One of your most important comments—we vote with our money. Hopefully this will inspire us to make some
Purchasing changes. The only disagreement I have is switching to Ace Hardware over wearing masks. A family member brought Remdesivir to the table for covid treatment. The pandemic is real and masks do protect others. The Bible tells us to “think of others more highly than ourselves.” I’m shopping at Ace Hardware because it’s locally owned. I will send you info about coffee extending life! I did email your wife about this when I made my first purchase! Great coffee!
Janet, thank you for your compliments on our article. I agree with you, shopping at Ace Hardware because it’s locally owned is reason enough for me. Thanks for your support. We enjoy serving our customers.
Great article, Russell. I’ve made some of those same changes and you’ve given me some great new ideas. Yep, it’s long past time for us Christians to put our money where our mouths are. The really hard part is to not become bitter and to keep being vessels of God’s love to an utterly lost culture.
Jim, I couldn’t agree more. Not only should we call a spade a spade, fight evil, and stand firm on what is right, we need to remember who wins this battle. Our Lord & Master!!!!
My husband and I, LOVE -LOVE -LOVE your article and agree 100%. We have gotten rid of most of the same things as you, I’m having a hard time giving up Amazon down here in the Keys, but I’m using it less and less. Hoping to sever that relationship soon. PS. Love your coffee. Love Jesus and the 2A
Patricia,
In the last 3 months, we’ve heard from our customers your same sentiment over and over and over again. I think that the rational part of America is starting to wake up and be willing to take a stand by using their dollar votes with their hearts instead of convenience. Let’s support American businesses. God bless you.
Thank you for the cancel culture article. I found your coffee because I am getting fed up with the large companies in the USA.
Your last bullet is true…Jesus is coming again. John 14:1-6
Tina, thanks for your positive comment. We’re getting a lot of email today from people that love the article. Of course there are a few, very few, who are hoping that we get “Cancel Cultured”. If so, I would take that as an honor.
