do they not have access to the internet?

do they truly believe that it will financially benefit their brand?

They know their brand supremacy will carry them, while catering to sheep who watch TV slurping a coke.

The internet is a generally pretty woke place. And it doesn’t hurt them financially, but if it did, they would still thump their chests for the sacrifice they made to be on the right side of history or whatever other bullshite excuse they want to use.

We'll see how woke they want to get with this SCOTUS-packing effort. If they had any brains, this would be the line as wokeness has no logic, and the woke-zombie herd can turn and feed on whichever prey at any turn.

A woke SCOTUS will be designed to feed the will of its masters, and the First Amendment is Enemy No. 1 in its mind.

Because they think it will make them money. They’re often correct

It's highly likely a packed court will also be very anti-capitalist and anti-corporate.

Because the vast majority of these companies are owned/directed by the same people running in the same circles who have hitched their bandwagons to the globalist agenda.

I don't understand how pandering to blacks (13% of the population) and trannies who can't be too numerous is a winning business proposition. Are there that many whites who want to beat themselves up for the sin of being white that they will destroy the country?

1) They know conservatives won’t do anything about it and/or will just go on about their business
2) Most corporate leadership live in a bubble
3) It is the prevailing thought now among PR/Marketing groups, who are also in a bubble, that consumers want to see their organizations/brands be self-aware and political.
4) They think that by being woke, it will give them immunity when the mob inevitably comes for them

It is nothing but capitulation to extortion, aka corporate terror, aka cancel culture. They hope that this time negotiation with terrorists will have a happy ending.

When one party is for totalitarian government and the other party isn’t, you might as well back the totalitarian side. If they have control, they will enact policies favorable to your company. If the other party has control, nothing will happen.

Woke-ism Is a form of religiosity.

The democrat party has become a religion that worships not god but government.
They are fascinated with moral judgement and those that are not with them are evil and thus, need to be destroyed.

Because if they don't... they'll probably find themselves targeted by countless government agencies.

Corporations, big and small...are ants compared to the power our government has.

They get invaded by and forced to implement "diversity and inclusion" offices in their companies/orgs. either through HR or as an independent entity. These are the useless fricks who got degrees in African American Studies and Women's Studies, Cultural ______ Studies, etc.

But they're really just trained activists, and when they get in, they use race as a bludgeoning tool to get the organization to go left, to its detriment.
