There is a huge degree of butthurt irony here. The people offended by these starbucks cups are the same people who complain about liberal PC people getting offended too easily.

Earlier this week, Starbucks began serving its seasonal holiday drinks in new green cups that were meant to promote a message of unity. But the cups are having the opposite effect, causing an uproar among some customers who are accusing the coffee chain of "political brainwashing."*

Thanks for ruining my childhood Starbucks.
