I work for a Fortune 50 employer that is always pushing a far left agenda.

These are the topics on the company home page today:
CEO attends DiversityInc event
Wuhan Virus vaccine propaganda
Stand with inclusion
Juneteenth
Celebrating pride month
2 links to industry-relevant topics

“Always eyes watching you and the voice enveloping you. Asleep or awake, indoors or out of doors, in the bath or bed—no escape. Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimeters in your skull.”

It's very strange the hoops these companies jump through for less than 20% of the population.

It’s because about half of the other 80% are 100% in favor of it.

Nah, it’s fear of the company being ruined by the woke mob and MSM if they don’t virtue signal.

Man, I had to hang on for 3 years in misery at a job which had been enjoyable for the previous 27 years. Hang in there and do what you have to do for your family, it’s gonna be worth it one day!

I work for a company where the upper level management has probably never seen an actual copy of Fortune magazine. Our intranet page is littered with the same type shite. Just finished my "diversity training" on how to not offend trannys and gays. It's everywhere, not just at big companies.

They jump through these hoops for $$$ not 20% of the population. It might only be 2%, really. Like it or not, lefty investors put their money where their mouth is and if your company ain't super woke, they don't invest.

The right SHOULD do the exact opposite. If your company is super woke, we don't invest. But, we aren't ruled by emotion so we look at the financials and invest. To our detriment... The result, super woke arse corporation pandering to the VERY SQUEEKY wheel of the far-left wing progressives and Marxists.

It's increasingly difficult to find a company that ISN'T pushing the leftist narrative.

It's at the hospital system I work for, as well.

Bari Weiss on Jordan Peterson’s podcast the other day, said something to the extent of, what if businesses began focusing on making good products and improving the bottom line.

What a breath of fresh air.

How much time and money are corporate cowards wasting on what largely amounts to a mythical problem?

Did they make any mention of Easter back in April? (I know what I'd bet on but asking)

I can't wait for the gays to get pissy that the blacks are hijacking their month with the juneteenth stuff. Isn't it becoming a national holiday? So can blacks continue to say they a oppressed when they have 2 race specific fed holidays? ...when no other race has one

I find it funny that companies like BK act one way on Twitter, but not in their advertising. Why aren't all their new chicken sammich commercials full of the gay flag? They should put it on all of their burger wrappers, bags, fries holders, etc. They should fly the flag in front of their stores.

I know why they don't do it, but people should call them out for it on their twitter or other things they use to promote their "pride."

and it is the 20% who don't have a great deal of spending power.
