Companies must fight back against wokeness: Now, Hyatt is taking flak for having hosted CPAC. This sort of madness isn't going to end anytime soon

Hyatt-Regency is under woke attack for sponsoring CPAC in Orlando, where adoring MAGA thousands expressed their affection for Donald Trump. Though Hyatt has hunkered down somewhat in the face of leftist screaming, the company doesn't really come across as all that cowed. Maybe it would buy into the following.

Remember the nationwide outpouring for Chick-fil-A a few years ago (before it, too, went woke)? Businesses that openly favor Trump's America need to take advantage of the simmering irritation going on outside the pages of the woke media. Once the unwoke public understand who's really in their corner and who holds them in contempt, the floodgates will open. Being ignored is one thing; being sneered at is quite another. The left doesn't realize that it's been lucky so far that the general public hasn't caught on to what's happening.

The idea here is, rather than hunker down from wokeness, go on the attack with unwoke themes. Advertise with such memes as "it's not racist to be white." "Some of my best friends are white." "We welcome everybody." While mouthing these lines, the actors drink the advertised soft drink or luxuriate in the beds of the motel chain or swim in its pool with multiracial guests.

It wouldn't be cheap, but the alternative of going out of business isn't cheap, either. Woke media would refuse to give airtime to such ads — unless large payments were made. Thirty years ago, Ross Perot bought two hours of expensive TV time for a rally not long before the '92 election. There are also other, very effective ways to get the message out. Billboards are one. Small-town newspapers and neighborhood newsletters are another.

The message need not be about just race.

This is what everyone deserved when they decide anything but Trump. Well you got what you asked for. Don’t whine to us.

If these companies were smart they should just shut up when the Woke’s attack. Play possum- soon the morons will move on to some other skin irritant to attack and the little tempest will be gone. That’s what the Washington Redskins owner should have done. Let them have their hissy fit and cry it out instead of being surrender monkeys.

We’ve seen this before and it can be a golden opportunity, and often a world changing opportunity, too.

Remember how the world was just before Fox News came into being? No options ... just three faces of the one-stream media telling us the news.

Then, all of a sudden ... one new company almost instantly became the ‘we report, you decide’ new source of information for half of America and beyond.

Well, here we are in 2021 and It’s another deja vu all over again morning in America, my friends, and those opportunities are everywhere!

To paraphrase Princess Leia, the more “they” tighten their grip, (and “they” are), the more opportunities will slip through their fingers ...

And into the waiting hands of the motivated, who will take advantage of the moment to the benefit of all!

That’s how the world changes and we’re on the edge of something big. Do you feel it, too?
