STURGIS, South Dakota — A growing online political movement is trying to enlist Sturgis Motorcycle Rally attendees into pressuring Harley-Davidson to fire its chief executive for supporting climate change policies and diversity and inclusive programs.
The movement is led by Robby Starbuck, a popular online conservative activist who targets companies over policies and practices he considers part of a diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) progressive agenda.
“Bikers @SturgisRally are going to be spreading the word about this,” Starbuck posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday. “Harley is hoping this all blows over. Are y’all ready to give up or make your voices heard?”

Well go woke go broke, and what is the % of dykes on bikes for Harley's sales?
This is the problem we face. The left is committed to their cause, without regard to the damage they cause in advancing the communist goals. The university system continues to churn out these communist idiots, and they have advanced to positions of influence throughout our society.
Can you define “Tone-Deaf”?
Wow. talk about shooting oneself in the foot
“Harley is hoping this all blows over”
Not with these guys.
The gay apologia posted here is not some Wyoming paper. This is the scribbler.
“Justin George is a journalist and editor who has worked for eight news organizations across four states & Washington, D.C., including the Washington Post, Baltimore Sun & Tampa Bay Times. Over nearly 25 years, he has covered public safety, transportation, education, the Department of Justice and local government. In 2015, George embedded with the Baltimore Police Department during the internal investigation of the death of Freddie Gray. His coverage contributed to the Baltimore Sun being named a 2016 Pulitzer Prize finalist. ”
And he pegs the gaydar.
“ Not with these guys.”
…correct! These guys are a huge majority conservative American!
Buy an Indian motorcycle!
Harley-Davidson might never recover if it tries to change its image to appeal to the LBGTQ community. There is no (I repeat, “NO”) group of consumers that would be more insulted by this than loyal Harley riders.

Gonna pull Woke on a HOG? Good luck with that!
Hate to say this to a few who will cry in anger but the HD crowd has always been a woke crowd, accepting of Dykes on Bikes and other crap. They have always been the anti-social types.
It’s really not about ‘harley’. It’s the image. Another company will make a bike, promote the image, and these guys will flock to them. They are not sissies. This is going to be worse than budlight.
You must not know any bikers. Being from Wisconsin, they’re all over. Just like in the news, the weird ones get the attention.
Wonder how many Nazi insignias will be at the rally this year? I was driving along route 7 in northern VA last month and saw a fat Harley rider with a big SS bolt sticker on his helmet. All these wanna-be losers can rot for all I care.
Motorcyle Hooligan ping
WAY worse than Bud Light. They even sponsored kids with drag queen events. Black Rock and Vanguard are big stock holders. You can bet they got that radical installed as CEO.
not always ... that started in maybe the late 70s or early 80s ...
Homo pedoes have control of HD.
I’ve been riding a Harley for 50 years. I am Female, Straight, Conservative, and Christian.
A number of years ago, I heard about a Run to raise money for Breast Cancer Research. I went, thinking it would be like other runs I have done for The Ronald McDonald House, MD, Rolling Thunder, etc.
Boy, was I mistaken. It was all lesbians on Japanese Bikes. I didn’t fit in at all and veered off early in the run.
(They were wearing COLORS too...I guess there are some les clubs, but they are NOT Harley riders.)
Now, Rolling Thunder was MOSTLY Harley Riders. Black, White, Liberal, Conservative, Male, Female(real ones), and so on. Attitudes were checked at the door to honor our Vets.
This is even more stupid than the BUD LITE fiasco. Talk about NOT knowing your core audience!
This should tell you everything you need to know.
