The signs, which appeared to say “we are an English speaking place of work” and “speak English,” were photographed by a customer, apparently behind the counter at a Henderson Highway restaurant.
“Corporate Social Justice Warriors”
Why Coca Cola caved
Brand new survey data suggest that corporations that cave to the left alienate more consumers than they attract — by a big margin. Glenn Reynolds’s slogan “Get woke, go broke” turns out to be very true.
The definitive list of left-wing companies that you should boycott
Once upon a time, the Cardinal rule of business was to never even discuss politics, yet nowadays, more and more large comporations are brazenly chosing to alienate half of the country by taking sides against Donald Trump, against Republicans, by attacking voting integrity laws, by pushing for censorship of conservative speech, and/or by reinforcing the Democrat’s toxic culture war, including pushing the false and racist narrative of systemic racism. These left-wing companies are like a “woke parallel government” that is a threat to our country and our freedoms.
Why do Ben & Jerry’s want to defund the police?
The radicalization of the Ben & Jerry’s PR department has been one of the stranger spectacles of recent years. After all, for all its hippyish origins and homespun shtick, Ben & Jerry’s is a corporate giant flogging expensive ice creams with wacky names like Cherry Garcia and Truffle Kerfuffle. And yet it has become remarkably preoccupied with virtue-signaling and moral hectoring. It is hard to tell whether this is a deliberate strategy for attention, or if someone’s pious nephew has simply seized control of the social-media accounts at head office.
Woke capitalism is a menace to democracy
Big businesses are aggressively interfering in politics – and liberals are egging them on.
Woke capital is on the offensive. This past week, CEOs of big corporations have aggressively inserted themselves into politics, threatening to use their economic power to override legislation. This is a serious menace to democracy.
Big Business Joins the Other Crumbling Pillars of Society
As with all the other pillars of traditional America, business has gone horribly wrong.
What a pitiful trajectory the woke leaders of large American corporations have traced as American business, once a pillar of American society and political science, has crumbled along with other pillars as if in a choreographed sequence.
The senior levels of national intelligence and the Justice Department were tainted in the nonsense about collusion between Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russia in 2016. Academia, apparently down to kindergarten, largely has been transformed into a massive brainwashing operation to convince the country’s youth that the United States is hateful and racist. The national political media have failed catastrophically and all surveys show that over 80 percent of Americans don’t believe a word they read or hear from that source. Any sector of American society which has done such savage violence to its own franchise will pay dearly for it commercially.
Sabrina Maddeaux: Canada’s 2021 Olympic outfits have one message — we’re a joke
In 2021, does Canada deserve better than uniforms that look like they were vandalized by angry teens with Sharpies? Not really
How Not to Sell Shampoo
Woke corporations like Procter & Gamble have turned trans ideology into a marketing tool.
A current TV ad for Pantene shampoo opens with a woman blow-drying the very long hair of a 12-year-old child. The following words are superimposed: “For LGBT kids, hair is more than how you look. It’s how you are seen.” Cut to the woman, Ashley, sitting on a couch with her lesbian spouse, Ellie. The child, Sawyer, she tells us, “happens to be a transgender girl.” The first time Sawyer went out in public in girl’s clothing and long hair, says Ashley, “she kind of was herself.” Then comes the key sentence. “And that,” she says, “was the first day where I saw her.” In other words, before Sawyer started wearing girl’s clothing and grew her hair long, he was invisible to Ashley. Which compels one to ask: did Sawyer feel unseen? Is that why he decided to grow his hair long and wear dresses?
Big Corporations Now Deploying Woke Ideology the Way Intelligence Agencies Do: As a Disguise
By draping itself in the finery of political activism, the corporatist class consolidates political power, corrupts democracy and distracts from its real functions.
The British spy agency GCHQ is so aggressive, extreme and unconstrained by law or ethics that the NSA — not exactly world renowned for its restraint — often farms out spying activities too scandalous or illegal for the NSA to their eager British counterparts. There is, as the Snowden reporting demonstrated, virtually nothing too deceitful or invasive for the GCHQ. They spy on entire populations, deliberately disseminate fake news, exploit psychological research to control behavior and manipulate public perception, and destroy the reputations, including through the use of sex traps, of anyone deemed adversarial to the British government.
Unilever, Whose Workers Raped and Killed, Calls for Police Defunding
“The murder of #DaunteWright is rooted in white supremacy and results from the intentional criminalization of Black and Brown communities. This system can’t be reformed. It must be dismantled and a real system of public safety rebuilt from the ground up. #DefundThePolice,” Ben and Jerry’s tweeted.
This was the corporate Twitter account of Ben & Jerry’s, rather than the personal account of its leftist founders, which is controlled by its parent company, Unilever.
Corporate Socialism on the Rise in US, Scholar Says
The collective effort by corporate CEOs to push their political views related to a growing number of public issues is putting the United States on a dangerous trajectory, experts say.
In the latest notable example, chief executives of some of America’s largest companies recently put out statements criticizing amendments to Georgia’s voting laws, which expand the state’s voter identification requirements to absentee voting, among other changes.
Woke Capitalism Revs Into High Gear: 90 CEOs Gather to Fight ‘Undemocratic’ Voter Integrity Laws
Roughly 100 of America’s top corporate leaders and CEOs gathered both in-person and virtually on Saturday to strategize ways to combat new election integrity laws like Georgia’s H.B. 531. Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, a Yale University management professor who helped organize the meeting, framed it as a response to threats of reprisals after Georgia-based companies like Delta Air Lines, Coca-Cola, and Aflac Insurance condemned the Georgia bill. He called election integrity measures “anti-undemocratic.”
Turned-Off Viewers Turn Off ‘The Falcon and The Winter Soldier’ After BLM Propaganda
Viewers are tired of woke politics seeping into every facet of entertainment media. Patience is running thin and most are simply tuning out.
The latest Marvel release called The Falcon and the Winter Soldier warranted a record breaking audience for its highly anticipated premiere episode, according to Disney+. The streaming service did not provide any numerics to corroborate this claim however the new show was proclaimed to be the most watched title for its opening weekend overall, even beating out The Mandalorian.
NBA In ‘Ongoing Business Discussions’ With Chinese Propaganda Network
The NBA is holding “ongoing business discussions” with China Central Television, the Chinese Communist Party’s chief propaganda network known for airing forced confessions of domestic dissidents.
The league told Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.) in a March 30 letter that it is exploring a renewed partnership with the regime’s television organ. While the NBA has yet to finalize a deal for the 2021 season, deputy commissioner Mark Tatum wrote, the two sides are in “ongoing business discussions.” Tatum also revealed that NBA China CEO Michael Ma—whose father served as a top executive for CCTV Sports—is taking an “active role” in the negotiations.
Major League Baseball’s Foul Ball
Another organization blinded by the Kultursmog.
Major League Baseball (MLB) is following Black Lives Matter (BLM) and taking a stand on the state of Georgia’s recent election legislation. MLB, under the direction of someone by the name of Rob Manfred, is pulling the 2021 All-Star Game out of suburban Atlanta along with the MLB draft. The New York Times in a front-page editorial (camouflaged as news) said the move by MLB was a “rebuke of a new Georgia voting law that critics have predicted would disenfranchise Black voters.”
