Actually, it is an example of Communism working perfectly as designed. When calamity occurs, jettison the workers who are no longer needed and save the rulers’ asses.
As in Animal Farm, the old work horse can be sent to the glue factory or to Alpo.

You are kidding me? No Evil Foods? And they are selling fake food? Really? No wonder they are failing.

Hey I will start the Non Poisonous Food Company.

“... was out of step with the company’s stated values.”

No company’s “stated values” mean anything.

Always remember that when you are hired by a company.

"...not meeting its socially conscious image..."

Unfortunately, being socially conscious doesn't create revenue.

I live 15 miles from Weaverville and do my weekly shopping there. I have NEVER heard of No Evil Foods.

As Dan Bongino says.

Socialism is 100% successful...at failure.

a purpose-driven food manufacturer, seeking to address “food insecurity, economic justice, and climate change” through plant-based options. Some of its products make cheeky nods to socialism, like the chicken-free Comrade Cluck.

Sometimes being a "woke" company is just plain stupid. Trying to behave like a Socialist company in a competitive market usually fails. Indeed, history is strewn with the wreckage of such Social experiments. Lesson learned...the hard way.

Reality is a pretty harsh mistress.

What is funny is that there was no “unicorn” money from investors. They love this type of crap

I'm always amused by vegetarians who are looking for a "meat-free" version of a product they tell us is bad for us.

For instance, a tofuburger is touted as tasting just like a hamburger.

Why would they want to even attempt that? I thought that hamburger was evil!

I worked for a Koch company.

You can say many things about the Koch’s, but they are VERY open about what they believe in, and what their values are. They were followed, sometimes to the detriment.

But that is the only company in 20 plus years where the values were anything but a poster in the break room.

Never trust the woke. Their whole wicked ideology is rooted in disingenuity.
