It has come to our attention one of our stores has been targeted with political messages and resulting images spread online.
We want to assure you our focus is providing you with the best service. Our company values diversity and wants everybody to feel welcome in our establishments. The sticker in question has since been removed and we’re launching an internal investigation to make sure vandalism can be prevented and offenders persecuted more effectively.

I think the person is referring to the state, but not the people or the environment.
The USA and the UK have strong patriotic currents which are entangled with their imperialist past and present.
I don’t think anybody here thinks you deserve to die or claim this would be acceptable, random internet stranger 💜

Important to keep in mind this is the talk page and literary people without even a Wikipedia account.
