Coca-Cola is under fire across the United States after it was revealed that their personalized can campaign, which allows customers to add names or words of their choice, blocks the name “Jesus” but reportedly permits “Satan,” “Allah,” and other deities.
In a video circulating online, users attempted to personalize a can with the name “Jesus” but were met with an error message stating, “WHOOPS! Sadly, we cannot automatically allow this text on the can!” This restriction has sparked outrage among many, who are questioning why certain religious names are excluded.
The backlash is growing, with critics accusing Coca-Cola of disrespecting Christianity while appearing to allow names associated with other faiths and beliefs. As the controversy spreads, many are calling on the company to explain the rationale behind its automated filters and to address the perceived bias.
