Great. The paper towel dispensers in my building are now Koch Bros. brand.

Georgia-Pacific. Hundreds of these dispensers were replaced in the last week.

Can't escape those fuckers.

Don't buy these consumer side Koch/Georgia-Pacific brands:

Angel Soft, Quilted Northern, and Soft n Gentle toilet paper; Brawny paper towels; any of the Dixie plates, bowls and napkins; Sparkle, Vanity Fair and Zee napkins.

That's their policy, not mine.

You show em. Boycott. Just be sure not to dribble any on ya then you don't need to wash.

Choose your battles carefully.
