This is why I don't drink Coca Cola products anymore.

Says a lot about YOU that you would boycott Coke over that, but NOT their 2015 Fanta ad,

He's just referring to an ad they pulled.   But they haven't apologized for their statement of being less white.

It was on talking fondly of how german coke executives invented Fanta because the ingredients need to make coke was unattainable due trade embargo by the US against the Nazis. 

So to summarize Pro-Nazi ad = no boycott.  Poorly worded diversity training = boycott.

In my opinion, that ad wasn't Pro-Nazi. Fanta wasn't pushing an agenda for or against Nazis. They were trying to sell their product and made an error in judgement, pulled the ad, and apologized for offending people that shouldn't have been offended to begin with.

Coke on the other hand is pushing an agenda regardless of the product sales. Anyhow, Nazis don't exist anymore for good reason and they're not coming back. Should white people not exist anymore?

No need for a boycott because I never drank Fanta to begin with.   Now they are on my boycott list as well as Dasani, Glaceiu Smartwater, and Simply Orange.  All of those are Coke products.   And if you can admit that the diversity training was poorly worded, then you can understand my position.  Plus they never publicly apologized for that shit.  Forced diversity needs to stop anyway as it is doing more harm than good.
