ESG (environmental, social, governance) is basically a wokeness score used as an investing metric, by people who believe the opposite of us: "Refuse to go woke, go broke."
Adopt 'green' policies? Corporate investors will boost your stock price as a reward.
Promote your DIE initiative? Cash money.
Ban right-wingers from your platform, cease doing business with low-ESG-score companies, generally act like another extension of the collective leftist hivemind?
They'll boost your stock price with that sweet, free gubmint cash that keeps getting printed, to make it look like a good idea.
Institutional investing based on ESG scores completely offsets any potential fror individual investors to provide market feedback. With enough market penetration (large firms using it as a metric), they can arbitrarily set stock prices so there's not even a cost to the institution for using an objectively shit metric that ignores profitability.
So basically we're fucked because they removed the financial incentive to actually cater to a customer base that doesn't like this woke shit.
Termites in the bloody foundation of society, the lot of them.
