Several players have spoken out against this now. They've even contacted the players union to have something done about it.

Explain to me how capitalism = liberalism? I would argue just the opposite. Companies are going to do wtf they wants bc this is America and we're not commies

Hence the targeted marketing to an audience. Baseball wants more fans.

That’s not going to get them the fans they want. It will alienate their core base. See Bud Light.

This is all about money. It has to be. The people that control the money are demanding esg bullshite. No trans, no lending. The economy is teetering on the edge and without access to cash the dominoes will fall. Theres no other logical explanation as to why all these major companies are parroting the exact same message.

Quite a leap there "moderate". I've stated repeatedly I'm atheist, and pedo priests should be put in jail. I get it though, you are trained to lie. Good job!

Of course not. Another item these groomers conveniently ignore when they make that argument is the fact that it is their groups that set up all this ESG/DIE garbage that corporations are touting.

Well, I say that.....that poster likely is smart enough to know this, he's just another trained liar.

Woudl the Dodgers really take a financial hit to the bottom line if the gays stopped attending or buying their merch?


They were probably under immense pressure from corporate sponsors to reverse their position. Corporate sponsors have to keep their ESG and CEI scores up so institutional lenders will continue to do business with them.

That's what is driving all of this bullshite.

When these companies start losing money they will change their tune, do you honestly believe companies in the US economy care about anything other than the bottom line? Should we regulate what companies promote based on your own personal morals and beliefs? That doesnt sound very American at all

I love how you keep conveniently ignoring the fact that this is exactly what is happening. As someone who is VERY socially liberal, I wish companies would just stick with selling a product and stay out of politics. Unfortunately, the modern day left (you and your ilk) won't allow that to happen.

Go ahead and keep dodging the ESG/DIE initiatives.

again, no one believes that you wouldn’t be crying and whining if the woke crap was being stripped of corporate marketing and products. but by all means, continue playing the disingenuous card.

Companies can operate (advertise) however they damn well please, and if some company chooses to appeal to something you dont agree with you bitch and cry about it while calling yourself an American

I, too, enjoy sports as an escape from the daily BS of life; however, if my team wants to have a gay night, im not going to lose any sleep over it or what a company does with its own money

No, they can't. The ESG scores and DEI initiatives say otherwise. They are being forced into this, but you know this already.

I have to hand it to you. Like every other leftist I know, you do a great job of completely dodging the obvious point while repeating the same bullshite narrative over and over.

Who is putting companies out of business based on the metrics you just mentioned?

What is the obvious point? That you believe companies should operate in a way that aligns with your personal beliefs?

Institutional lenders like Blackrock won't do business with companies if their social credit (ESG, CEI) metrics aren't high enough.

You must have lived under a rock for the last few years if you haven't noticed this stuff.

Blackrock is an extremely profitable company in the business of making money, no?

Kind of like how you dismiss the Catholic Church molesting kids instead you go with some asinine belief that gays are pedos?

Assuming all priests molest kids is equivalent to assuming that all teachers molest kids. The Catholic church doesn't molest kids

What's your take on why this board is completely obsessed with the trans movement under the guise that it's to protect the children while we virtually never talk about the massive issue with catholic priests raping kids and a huge issue with it being hidden by churches to allow it to continue?

If it's for the kids, why does the trans movement get about 10000000x more discussion here on this board?



Interested to hear your answer. But I'll go ahead and preemptively give the correct answer. Politics have broken people, and they are sheep and will spout the talking points that their politicians tell them to. And the trans movement is that talking point.

Again, if that above paragraph is crazy and dumb, then why did this board comparatively not care about 100s if not 1000s of kids being raped and conspiracies to hide and continue this disgusting acts were taken, and it's a blip on the OP radar...why?
