Excellent questions posed here.

Why are some major companies willing to hurt their business, just to prove that they have bent over backwards to prove that they are liberal???

Why do they feel the need to take sides in social/political questions in the first place?

Are they afraid of being targeted by the liberal fascist elements in our culture??

But then look at Chick Fil A, which was targeted by the left because their founder has the audacity to believe that marriage is a man and a woman. Chick Fil A has actually seen their business increase after being targeted for destruction by the left.

So Chick Fil A has proven that you can survive and prosper being targeted by the left.

So are these major media and entertianment companies really afraid of being targeted by the left? Really?? If so, what consequences do they fear???

Because the class of people who are typically CEO’s don’t care about the bottom line of the businesses they pretend to run, they care about how their peers view them.

They would rather shed customers than appear to be doublebadthink by having Trump supporters like them. Look at Camping World. My neighbor works for a camper sales group that just got bought out by Camping World. After the CEO’s statements, he is worried about the local branch straying open.

I don't think it is a matter of surviving and prospering.

It is a fear of even being labeled. Being called names. Of people even remotely thinking they might not be "down with the struggle".

It is a disturbing form of craven and cowardly behavior that I find even more repellent. If a liberal believes it and puts all their money behind it, well they are stupid and wrong, but it doesn't bother me the same way as the ones who just want to make sure all the tickets get punched to avoid criticism.

Geez, just grow a spine if you have to, but cowardly caving is bad.

I swear they believe The Revolution is coming anyway, and they are trying to guarantee themselves a good seat among the leadership.

Maybe they should read up on the Cultural Revolution and its aftermath.

Nice that you mention Chick-fil-a because when the sick, degenerate, perverts of the left attacked them we drove to Cheyenne (400 miles one way) to have dinner and support them. Wish we could get one in Cody!!!
