Original Note:
The post is implying Starbucks released a watermelon mug to show support for Palestine, due to slumping sales amid boycotts over their support of Israel. Watermelon imagery is a symbol of Palestinian solidarity. It was released May 2023, before the Israel-Hamas conflict. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cr2vJKzsqJf/?igsh=MW16M2c2cTd2ZWs0aA== https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSNKgmWyC/
