Is Woke Corporatism Peaking?
American Thinker ^ | May 28, 2022 | Christopher Skeet

Over the past decade or so, corporate America has incessantly barraged an annoyed citizenry with the preachiness, the condescension, and the weaponized guilt that form the basis of woke ideology. Spineless corporate boards, bending to the will of numerically insignificant but deafeningly shrill fanatics, have bent over backward to cleanse their products and their organizations of supposed bigotries which, upon examination, would be determined to be decidedly unbigoted by any rational being.

Only because their sales have.

I doubt it. A non woke business would start advertising to people who actually make this country run: white heterosexual Christian males. Try to find an ad that portrays a white male in a positive manner, i.e., not as some touchy-feely non-masculine freak.

These ‘effing corporations have the responsibility to maximize shareholder value. Fiduciary responsibility.

What right do they have to give away the shareholder’s money to communist groups like Black Lives Splatter and Antifart?

I’m surprised shareholders aren’t screaming bloody murder at the annual stockholder’s meeting.

Let the woke corporate types at these companies give their OWN money.

They may re-frame a bit for now, but the ruling class is still in a state of total war against us.

That's not just Democrat politicians or the official government. It's every institution including private foundations and big corporations.

Advertising for consumer products is generally aimed at two groups:

1. Women — because they make most purchasing decisions for these products.

2. Blacks — because they spend an enormous amount of time watching TV.

Advertising to most white males is a waste of money and effort. I don’t know any white men who have ever made a single purchasing decision based on an advertisement.

Case in point … I think Bob Seger’s “Like A Rock” ads for Chevrolet trucks may be the greatest series of advertisements ever made. And yet I have never bought a Chevy truck … or any GM product, for that matter.

Every parent I know, both D or R have had it with Mattel and the Tranny Barbie.

We lower taxes on these coprorations and the people who run them and look what happens. They become Democrats and libs! The only conservative things we accomplished was taking care of corporate needs when we should of been taking care of our own. They were never conservative in the first place. We need to raise taxes on these people and that is especially true if they are gong to spend the money now that they don’t pay their fair share.
