A Goodyear employee says the company has put out a new policy that has some calling it not equal for all.
A photo seen circulating on social media shows a slide that was presented during a diversity training showing what’s acceptable and what isn’t acceptable as part of Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company’s zero-tolerance policy.
Under acceptable: Black Lives Matter (BLM), Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Pride.
Listed as unacceptable: Blue Lives Matter, All Lives Matter, MAGA Attire, Political Affiliated Slogans or Material.

Firestone makes tires too.
Well, I guess it’s no more Goodyear tires for me.
Sue....every member of the Board of Directors and Senior Management personally.
Break them.
You GOTTA read their reply.
They basically said #### you that’s the way it is.
Issues dealing with “EQUITY” are allowed.
That’s how they cover their butts
Get it before the courts.
Starting to smell a lot like 1930s Germany around here
Do they have an "inclusion" policy that mirrors Goodyear's? And if not, will they soon?
That's the problem. Eventually all these companies surrender to the woke mob. It's just easier for them.
I was confused at first because I was thinking of a literal slide. I also wish for a time when people just went to work, did their job and then went home.
Melissa Monaco may need a polite visit from some patriots. Her slipshod university credentials are showing.
Guess who isn’t getting Goodyear tires ever again.
(I haven’t had them in a while. Their tires sucked.)
No Goodyear tires for me, ever. No tolerance, no forgiveness. And that applies to any and all corporations that do the same, even once.
I have Toyo tires on the truck. I am pretty sure the Japs don’t care about any of this stuff.
Yep. I was surprised. They didn't even try to sugarcoat it.
Firestone is now a division of Bridgestone, which is Japanese - just FYI.
Me, I’ve been underwhelmed by most of Goodyear’s tire offerings for years, so I’ve not been buying them anyway.
“Sue....every member of the Board of Directors and Senior Management personally.”
Yeah it should get personal. Unfortunately no one is fighting any of this.
Goodyear wants to kill their business, I guess.
Things are getting ugly in this country.
After a while, they will just begin ignoring any court decisions against them.
Or fire people for “other” reasons
bad.
Putrid.
How is “All Lives Matter” considered unacceptable? How about Straight Pride? If not why not? They should be asked to justify their stand.
I can understand the ban on political stuff.
Goodyear will be having a bad year, worse than the other tire manufacturers. Immedialely, Goodyear tires should be “not acceptable” on police cars. That’s a lot of tires.
The Koreans don’t care either - and they make some very good tires in Kumho and Hankook. The French don’t care much and their Michelin tires are often the very best street tires you can get.
Goodyear has been bleah tires for about forever.
