Hedge Funds like Blackrock subsidize woke through ESG investing, so that they interrupt the 'get Woke, go broke' cycle-- what do we do when the Fed itself is subsidizing a group like them to make Woke 'too big to fail?'
Yeah, people need to remember we have long since left a capitalist society. The moment a single one of these companies feels a real burn they will cut corners, abuse tax loopholes harder, and then get government money to stabilize them.
Even without that, they would just end up sold to a bigger corp and then survive anyway. Blizzard was nearly dead and worthless, then Microsoft bought them right up.
Exactly. Boycotts we're always fake and never worked, but now it's just insanely obvious. The Democrats would just hand Disney billions if we somehow boycotted them enough to cause losses. It's pointless.
I’d say yes and no. Remember how the left tried to boycott Chick-fil-A a few years back over their ceo donating to anti gay marriage causes? On the day of the protest the right essentially all ate act Chick-fil-A that day making them even more busy than normal. I guess what has to happen with boycotting now needs to be an obvious support for a companies competitor that is either neutral or right leaning.
Boycotts don't work. Disney getting their privileges pulled works.
I think not even that's going to work anymore.

I didn’t say you can keep trusting people after giving them support. Reward good behavior, punish bad
