Why is it that companies and businesses feel forced to make a statement?

On the current Floyd/BLM stuff. I don’t get why businesses thousands of miles away from Minn feel like they absolutely have to make a statement on these issues and the riots going on. I don’t remember all these businesses making statements when the Alton sterling mess was going on, or for Trayvon martin. Why now?

silence is being equated with complicit white supremacist guilt.

they want to get out in front and not get attacked themselves...

Two minutes hate, you better participate.

Domino effect and peer pressure.
Once a critical mass of them began issuing these stupid arse statements, at that point not issuing a statement made it look like you were making a statement.
It's always better to go along with the herd to be "safe"

Because cancel culture is at an all time high. Hell you have Obama himself trying to get rid of it.
The left and right bred a monster by constantly giving in, and now we have to deal with this shite.

Companies know its always best for them to stay politically neutral, but these days they’re labeled racist if they dont lick the boots of SJWs.

That’s my point. If a business has never “chosen sides” why feel the need to start now. And I’m not talking about national or international, hell im seeing local and regional businesses doing it

Had an online chat with Verizon wireless rep yesterday.....First was the autobot who sent a bunch of virtue signaling messages.
I requested a live rep and told her that Verizon is my phone provider.
I do not need to hear how you feel about viruses, racism, teachers or unemployment. No one else cares either.

Wait until they're required to do more than just say something. The do something part is coming.

....you can surrender and give the proestors everything they demand, won't change a thing........if you're a white conservative Christian they will still kill you.

I saw your OT thread with the references to Mao as the guiding force in all of that.
I find it remarkable that this is all being accomplished here without any need of a titular head. The ingrained tentacles are something else.
