Bed, Bath, and Beyond is the latest example of “get woke, go broke”.

I good original business model, selling mid to upscale home products, things that people use, in a pleasant store atmosphere. I’ve bought a pan or two there myself. Then take that model and taint it by pushing an agenda that 95% of the people disagree with. Not just hiring someone who is gay - that’s not at issue. Its promoting that lifestyle, promoting the perverted mindset, making sure that the employees openly parade their gayness, their perversion, in everything they do. And downplaying all that is right at the same time.

If I go to BB&B, I go to buy something. Nothing else. Nothing dissuades me to visit the store as much as forcing the woke agenda on me.
