These corporations biting the hand that literally feeds them shouldn't be surprised to find that hand coming back hard for a retaliatory bitch slap.

There's never been a communist revolution that did not devour itself. Why should ours be different?
Before the Woke Wars began in earnest, I once naïvely thought that men's professional sports would remain a small redoubt from the insipid idiocy of "political correctness." Stadiums where rowdy fans cheer on strong men engaging in physical acts of confrontation — and sometimes bloody violence — seemed like sturdy cultural ramparts capable of keeping leftist indoctrination at bay. Alas, owner-imposed ideology across leagues and organized intimidation campaigns against individual players have combined with enough force to crash through the gates.
Now grown men who have spent their lives training for battle meekly embrace ever-changing Marxist planks before millions of spectators, who likewise are allowed to watch only if they implicitly accept the State's woke dogma. Will players and fans be forced to kneel during the National Anthem this week? To reject their religious faith as an expression of "hate"? To applaud child-grooming and predation? To cheer the World Health Organization's dictatorial control over their lives? Stay tuned. The sports leagues will let you know what to believe just as soon as the Marxist brigades lay down new marching orders. Even men with a surplus of testosterone will be expected to comply.
Just as the beer companies, fake conservative news networks, and so many iconic American companies before them, the sports leagues have turned their backs on generations of loyal fans in a display of repugnant pusillanimity. I wonder whether the Judases will one day regret it. I know that the ESG- and DIE-pushing communists are castrating corporate holdouts that resist the Woke Borg, but by bending to the Borg's will, these companies have destroyed any goodwill with lifelong allies. When the Marxists come for another pound of flesh from their corporate vassals...

J.B. Shurk has been writing a lot of great pieces lately. This is another one of them.

I agree. On a roll for sure.
“Our Descent into Clown World”
my first though upon reading the headline was that the article was going to be about the GOP presidential primary ...
The idiot masses allow it.
Bread and Circuses.
Correct the problem? Pull the trigger.
And the fans won’t stop watching and attending.
“we are being invaded by a multitude of foreign nationals”
Very few of them are woke. I much prefer them to the progressives born here.
This started twenty years ago when commies discovered NASCAR Dads... and realized there was a force they didn’t want to deal with.
So they did they’re usual and targeted one ‘small’ group - organized sports and took them over politically. The answer is to BudLIght them. Starting with the LA Dodgers...
I don’t watch television, but my wife does, and I glance at television as I walk by as a snapshot to figure out what the focus of the Left is at any given moment, and using a mosiac at those snapshots over a short time (a morning or a day) I get what is important to them. (Granted, I already know this)
This morning, every time I walked by, there was a homosexual of some form or another with “Pride” emblazoned across the bottom for the last few seconds of a segment of a person talking.
This is what it is going to be for the next month I suspect.
Shameful.
We have one day-ONE-to honor our war dead, who gave their lives for their country, and a solid MONTH to “honor” people who believe that unnatural sexual action is the overarching and primary definition of human existence.
Appalling.
My elderly mother still likes to watch television, mostly game and trivia shows. One of them is called Weakest Link.
This week’s show had all transvestites as contestants, called “Drag Extravaganza!”
My mother was quite upset about this, needless to say.
This is just awful. I can imagine how that bothers her.
But it is what we are being barraged with on a daily basis.
