It might not work though, because the average NYT reporter probably thinks Cracker Barrel is for white trash, so they can’t use this one to lecture their wealthy liberal audience, which is the only reason the other Rufo plays were appealing to them

Rufo is the guy the NYT was afraid would “scoop them” a few weeks ago about Mamdani. This guy. Who is melting down over the Cracker Barrel logo. That’s who they were afraid of. How embarrassing.

They won't, I bet; it doesn't target any actual libs & thus isn't worth much to them. besides how many NYT readers give a fuck about Cracker Barrel?

Even chance he gets op-ed space for this soon. His hold over the Times is genuinely fascinating, do they have a guilt complex about there elite education and status that he exploits to push his shit into discourse?

It does seem to motivate people, I remember at the election posts saying that Trump's victory would bring back product mascots like Uncle Ben or the Land o' Lakes lady.

Pride @ Star Rail/FF9 @primas99.bsky.social

I honestly think 90% of right wing grievance can be boiled down to “things are different from how they were in my childhood and I don’t like it.” The statues being removed, new sexualities and gender identities, changes to how we talk about things; it’s all a fear of change top to bottom

He's not going to get Cracker Barrel to change policies almost certainly required by several legal settlements. Maybe he gets them to go back to the old logo though

NYT breaking a "HBO is going woke by redesigning their logo for the 8th time" news story because they are terrified Rufo will scoop them on it. So what are the odds we relitigate the Land o'Lakes butter fight just because they need a culture wars win?
