The wokeism is terrible for shareholders.

I really do not understand how the companies get away with it. Publicly traded companies have a fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders. Adopting policies that appeal to 2% of the population and telling the other 98% of the population to eff off is just weird. And should be actionable in court.

But no one wants to be offensive, so they just suffer massive business losses instead. Look at pro sports. It’s never coming back. But at least we have trannie cheerleaders now.

The Media support it. And tell them they are doing the "right" thing.

Well, I know “why” they do it.

Willie Sutton was asked why he robbed banks — “That’s where the money is”, he said.

“Why” is easy.

But the companies that do this woke stuff lose money for their shareholders. They shouldn’t be allowed to get away with it.

“..usage explodes around 2012, with the Washington Post and the New York Times leading the charge.”

2012 beginning of the 2nd Obama Administration, no more campaigns, damn the torpedoes full steam ahead. Valarie Jarrett was free to opens the flood gates on the Soros philosophy.

I am afraid we will never go back.

I don’t understand why a corporation has any political position at all.
What does faggotry have to do with data storage?…

That’s really the thing, isn’t it?

“We sell widgets”. Full stop. Who cares about anything else?

The reason their is more opposition in the USA, is the USA is founded and the government was created, to prevent this sort of tyranny.

In Europe, the Tyranny has always been there. Government has always been considered omnipotent.

Only in the USA have limits on government power had any real teeth.

Corporatism is NOT capitalism.

Our founding fathers had incredible foresight when they drafted our Constitution. They had a very narrow range of Federal Powers. Only those things that must be done on a national level were assigned to DC.

The rest was reserved for the States and the People to decide.

Now we are engaged in a huge war for control, using power not written or even suggested in our founding documents.

The nation is dying from complexity that technology made possible. Because it is possible, does not mean it is useful or valuable.

Large scale International Corporatism, funded a stolen election in the USA in 2020. It has it tentacles deeply embedded in DC and many State Capitals.

There is no pattern for the conflict we face. No where in the history of mankind is there an example of the Great Evil that seeks to control all nations under one computer driven monster.

Top Down control, never works well. No human has the wisdom to effectively use that power.

So, what is the solution? It is the solution that major corporations adopted long ago. Flatten the structure and downsize the bureaucracy. Hold the King and Prince want to be accountable for their actions.

Totalitarianism in all forms is Evil!

Fascist #Nazi's (Erdogan’s Turkey)

All Evil. All Fail.

Freedom Works.

It's TIME to DownSize DC!

Restore the Constitution!Size DC!

Why is it, then, that people in traditionally progressive countries—my native social-democratic Sweden being a prime example—can believe the same things, read the same books, and propound the same ideas as their American counterparts, without their societies experiencing the same sort of catastrophic polarization afflicting the United States?

Dunno... Maybe because those other countries don't have giant minority populations?

More conservatives should read James Burnham.

What he wrote about is “power”.

Power has its own rules—and they may appear crazy to people on the “outside”.

Power means doing insane stuff just to prove you can get away with it.

Power means daring people to stop you.

Power means demanding obedience even if today’s rules contradict yesterday’s rules.

George Orwell also “got it”:

“Power is not a means; it is an end.

One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.

The object of persecution is persecution.

The object of torture is torture.

The object of power is power.”


This applies not just to governments but to corporations and other institutions, large and small.

The sociopaths want to order you around and make you their slaves.

They want to humiliate you and make you denounce your ancestors and heritage and principles and integrity.

Great men are those who stand up and say “no”.

The Left thrives and profits from conflict.
Sweden is not yet "diverse" enough to ignite, except in a few areas.

Burnham is a favorite of the dissident right: Auron McIntyre, Charlemagne, The Distributist, Academic Agent, Mencius Moldbug, Nick Land, etc.

We're not supposed to notice that before the influx of migrants Sweden and the other Nordic countries were culturally and ethnically homogenous.

Welfare states can be tolerated in countries with lots of trust where freeriders are shamed.

Not so much in the multiculti US where our ethnic diversity leads to division and distrust.

I’m thinking as read this, are the so-called‘managerial’ class aware of this? Then I remember David Brooks call himself and his cohorts the ‘Expert Class’.
All the useless highly educated expert class cannot find their own Value creation so they engage in value capture. Which works until you run out of other peoples’ money. To What manner of force will they resort when they lose the consent of the governed?

Welfare states that allow massive illegal (and legal) immigration are burnt toast.

History will record this—and future generations will “get it”.

"The Corporation" is a documentary that shows how corporations misused the 14th Amendment to extend the concept of personhood to give them all manner of rights with few responsibilities.

The Supremes are not primarily chosen for being sufficiently left or right, but for being willing to kowtow to corporate control.

Historically, the answer to your question is grim. When consent is withdrawn and cannot be manufactured or coerced, the result is democide.

It depends on who writes the history and if the future generations will be capable of reading, let alone comprehending or acting on what they read.

We are following the path of Rome. Everyone who gets it is being attacked and punished.

It’s likely we will run out resources before we run out of recipients, at the rate it is progressing. Instead of managed looting from the top with some redistributive elements to keep the captured interests satisfied, the next stage is an actual sack.

After that, the deluge and it is over. Many will simply leave the US when that happens.
