In the words of social and political philosopher Eric Hofer, “Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and turns into a racket.” So when I read this tweet by Andy Ngo, I was intrigued.

Get woke, go broke.
Pass the word on BRC on gun forums so that people stop buying.
Matt fell too much in love with his popularity, and has long forgotten who and what got him to where he is today. It's a sad story but so many fall into the hole of their own self-importance.
So they used an AR-15 as a logo, and the suckers from the right lined up like they were fixin' to get a Frankenstein Vaccine.
That is perhaps the best, smartest business advice of the new millennium. Too many companies seem to feel they need to get involved, make a statement.
No, you don't.
You need to focus on your product/service and market. Keep an eye on the competition, and provide a superior product/service (either in quantity/quality/cost, whatever). As soon as you buy into the whole social/political thing you are going to alienate a significant portion of your customer base. It doesn't matter which way your base leans, there are some from the other side(s). Alienate them and you give up a few percentage points, maybe even double-digits. Most businesses are not so dominant in their fields that they can afford to give up 5%, 10% or more to their competition.

They took venture capitalist money a few years ago and obviously dream of an IPO. They’re not going to get that from Wall Street without genuflecting to the progressive-corportist agenda.
Dittos to that.
Damn, I really liked the videos Matt Best made :-(
Anytime you see “Hannity involved” something fishy is going on - Sean is for Sean and no one else.
It’s hard to shun a company I don’t patronize in the first place.
The sporting goods store I work in has a large display of their product.
When this gets out I expect to see a lot less of it sold.
f them. I’ll just stick with my Dunkin’ Donuts coffee. I don’t need to make a statement with the brand of coffee I drink.
they keep landing in it, even for good deeds...

Need to post a picture of him with cheetos all over his face a long side of that
It’s overpriced garbage anyway.
