🍉 F1 PUMA MERCH BDS BOYCOTT AGAINST ISRAEL INFORMATION (*UPDATED*) 🍉
Brands include Ferrari and Mercedes!
———————————————————————
Hi everyone. This is an updated version of my original post now that Williams Racing have today announced a Puma partnership. I really appreciate and encourage any likes, shares and reblogs, I’m hoping this will get better reach then last time
———————————————————————
I wanted to make this post to bring awareness that the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) Movement has listed the brand PUMA as a key company for targeted boycotts against Israel. (Please find more info and a link to the BDS website below)
I wanted to especially bring attention to this on my F1 blog as the following F1 teams use Puma as a merch supplier and sponsor (there may be more I have missed, please let me know and I will update the post!)
*UPDATE* Williams Racing F1 Team has just posted today (23rd Jan) to unveil a partnership with Puma. I would therefore assume all merch from this year (2024) and beyond will be Puma branded.
Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team (current)
Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 team (some of their merch has an unclear brand origin but they are still partners with Puma and have many Puma merch items)
2022 Oracle Red Bull Racing (Merch from 2022 and years prior. They are now supplied by Castor for merchandise from 2023 & onwards)
⬇️ VITAL INFORMATION ⬇️
"Global sportswear manufacturer Puma is involved in violations of international law and human rights. Puma is the main sponsor of the Israel Football Association (IFA), which includes teams in Israel's illegal settlements on occupied Palestinian land.
In addition, Puma's current and past exclusive licensees in Israel have operations in illegal Israeli settlements.
Israel's military occupation expels Palestinian families, including children, from their homes to give way for these settlements. Israeli settlements are considered war crimes under international law."
Thank you from the bottom of my heart if you read this far. Remember there is so much brilliant unofficial merch and fan wear out there to buy instead if you would like! (while being mindful of global economic boycotts)
Hmmmm I feel like there’s a golf/onlyfans AU in there somewhere, thanks for the inspiration, Lando lmfao 🤣🤣
something like, Lando makes a living on OF (and studies digital art hoping to make a career out of it later on) and he’s not ashamed of it, he absolutely loves it. One day as a joke his friends gift him a golf lesson with a pro golfer Carlos, even though Lando’s never played and was never interested in it. He still goes though and has the time of his life with the hottest guy ever. Can’t decide if it’s better if Carlos recognizes him because he’s subscribed to him on onlyfans and tells him about it point blank, or he has no idea and learns about it later. Either way to Lando’s relief he’s totally cool with it. The point is, they start seeing each other, and while pro golfers are not, like, the most famous people around, it still makes news that Carlos has been frequently seen with a guy who has a pretty popular onlyfans account. Some kind of drama ensues (maybe with Carlos’ parents or with the golf community being judgy) but in the end they make it because they fell in loooooove BIG time hahaha oh my god I’m so obsessed, I want to read about them in every possible scenario 😭😭😭
Anon, I have been thinking about this too lmao I have such a problem when it comes to them...
I love the golf angle!! I was just thinking maybe driver Carlos but pro-golf Carlos is sooo good, because golf lessons, all day alone on the green?? Hello 👀👀
Big bonus if maybe Carlos recognizes Lando and isn't sure if he should say anything, because he's definitely subscribed but he doesn't want Lando to think he's a creep (especially if he's paid an embarrassing amount of money at some point) and he also doesn’t want Lando to think he's going to make any unwanted moves because of it.
And when it does come out, Lando is maybe a bit embarrassed because he's been drooling over Carlos, but he's mostly flattered and relieved.
Maybe they have such a good time that Carlos offers to give Lando a few more lessons, and then maybe later commandeers a private show while Lando is streaming, idk filthy ideas in my head.
Alternatively, Carlos DOESN'T know, and he sees a comment about Lando from a photo caught of them, or maybe a friend mentions it and then he can't not look Lando up. And it's awkward when he meets up with Lando again, but you know it works out.
Also I love the idea of Lando working on design stuff, maybe paying for his degree through OF and occasionally showing his projects to nicer subscribers.
There are so many ways to write this and they are all so good 😭 some angst potential with people judging them and maybe some family conflicts, but also they just make each other so genuinely happy that they can't not be together.
UGH
It's going in the list of AUs to write because I NEED it.
Probably going to take a bit for me to write it though...
Boycott F1 Puma merch in solidarity with Palestine.
Hi everyone. I wanted to make this post to bring awareness that the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) Movement has listed the brand PUMA as a key company for targeted boycotts against Israel.
From their website (linked above) ⬆️ -
“Global sportswear manufacturer Puma is involved in violations of international law and human rights. Puma is the main sponsor of the Israel Football Association (IFA), which includes teams in Israel’s illegal settlements on occupied Palestinian land.
In addition, Puma’s current and past exclusive licensees in Israel have operations in illegal Israeli settlements.
Israel’s military occupation expels Palestinian families, including children, from their homes to give way for these settlements. Israeli settlements are considered war crimes under international law.”
I wanted to especially bring attention to this on my F1 blog because these f1 teams listed use PUMA as a merch supplier (there may be more I have missed. Please let me know and I will update the post!)
Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team (current)
Oracle Red Bull Racing (Merch from 2022 and years prior. They are now supplied by CASTOR for current merchandise)
Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 team (unclear if current. They still sell PUMA merch on their websites and on the F1 Store)
I urge you all to not buy new PUMA merchandise from anywhere, particularly as I am pointing out, PUMA F1 Merchandise.
There is plenty of great unofficial merch suppliers that you can purchase from if you’d like merch for these teams.
Thank you for reading. Please do reblog and share to help bring more awareness to other fans.
