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.

I don’t understand why a corporation has any political position at all.

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”.
