Annual report 2020

Geschäftsbericht 2020

Mohrenköpfe gone - one M bad. What a pity! As they have been removed from the range as a result of a simple tweet, I regret to inform Migros that the next annual report will close with a personal loss in sales of CHF 720 caused by me. I will be suspending one weekly purchase at Migros every month from July. This is in response to the disproportionate ban on "racist sweets".

I can only agree with you! I pay around 400 a month including cat food, cat litter etc. I will probably lose more than 50% - 60% of my income!!! This until the decision is made to end the discrimination against a traditional Swiss company and to put the Mohrenköpfe back in the range

And then at least in all Swiss branches, or again only in the two Migros Cooperative stores in Zurich where the Dubler earwigs have been sold to date?

I think so too, why weren't they available everywhere? I always took the Ammann ones at Denner...they're not as tasty.

I won't go for a few months either, Coop and Aldi are enough for me. Unless you finally get cumulus vouchers again like before, or that you stop this political correctness maybe then again. Unbelievable if a Swiss company has to believe in it just because an anonymous racist makes a little protest on twitter.

@Traberli The Dubler ear heads were sold in the MARINELLO stores. A few years ago, GMZ took over these stores, closed some or turned them into Migros branches (e.g. in ShopVille in Zurich main station). Because the Dublers were a successful product in the former Marinello stores, Migros continued to sell them here.

At least 1 M worse, would even say several M's gone. And suddenly, after a more than tragic incident in America, people are trying to find racist words that have nothing to do with racism at all. For example, if there was a lettuce on the market with the name paleface because it was lighter in color than all the other lettuces, would it occur to me to get angry about it and demand a name change? Even if someone of a different color called me paleface? As if there were no other problems in this world. Racism is and remains a big problem and we should try to do something about it. But aren't actions such as the boycott of the sale of Dubler's Moorish heads stirring up even more prejudice against one race? Let traditions, words etc. in Switzerland remain as they are, as long as they are not really racist, and encourage the population with sustainable suggestions for a good coexistence of people of all skin colors. I give Migros a bad report card. You could make a good case for selling it on. The best thing to do now is to scour the entire range for names that could discriminate against anyone. I'll just get my Dubler Mohrenköpfe from Mr. Dubler's factory with more CO2 emissions (they're cheaper there too!!!). I hope he doesn't let me get him down.

That's why... I'd like to have them in Migros too.

Now there's a second death... ↵The only question is why is this going viral now? Because the problem with racists and my right-wing extremist problems have always been there. And it's growing and growing.↵↵It's great to take it out on food. As if renaming them will change anything. It will always be the Mohrenkuss, Negerkuss even if it's called something else. ↵Raider is now called Twix exactly... ↵↵I still have the old name stuck in my head. ↵I can't do a reset with my thoughts.↵Dickmann 🥰
