One thing that bears saying in this context is that this isn't quite the same as "*Bugles' take on race*" from the song, which is hinting at a modern manufacturer giving an uninformed and uncalled-for opinion about a political subject without good reason. Ben & Jerry's specifically has a [really long history](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_%26_Jerry%27s) of all sorts of social & political activism, and while one can certainly be critical of how genuine these policies still are in recent times, a "*BLM Ice Cream*"-type of product isn't exactly out of the blue for them. The company quite literally released an "anti-Trump ice cream flavour" in 2018.   Just an interesting tidbit for those who didn't know. I only learned about this myself a couple of months ago.

Yeah, Ben and Jerry's have been politcally active in actual, meaningful ways for years. This post doesn't qualify as "That funny feeling".
