Very brave of the liberals to support a company that has 1 woman in their top 11 of pay.


I wouldn't know anything about that.

The ad is not just about equality for women. It's about racial equality as well. The is purposely released during Black History Month and shot in black and white.

I'm sure their 5 year old Chinese employees feel the same way.

Benson Towers in New Orleans has a banner covering the entire side of the building with Equality on it and the Nike symbol at the bottom.

All-Star game, P.C.

Being offended by an email....

And it would have been more offensive, had it been . . . .

over the phone?

in a newsletter?

on a advertisement?

at a stockholders meeting?

flown on a flag from a dorm window?

Or as a tweet?

or as an executive order from the CEO?


I mean, speech is speech, right?

I work at Nike. I get this social justice stuff all the time. I think the company is trying to show they care, but in the end, they care about their profit, more.

Nike is a large corporation, which is exactly what the SJWs abhor. In Oregon, the silent majority is more conservative than the very outspoken minority of SJWs, and Nike is trying to keep those people quiet - hopefully without getting the silent majority riled up.

The ad is about one thing, and one thing, only: $$$$

Nike is pissed off at Trump for abandoning the Trans-Pacific Partnership. It's going to cost Nike a hell of a lot more money to ship their shoes to the USA now.

Equality, my arse.
