Starve the Woke-corporation beast this holiday season.
Consumer Watchdog Lists 5 ‘Woke’ Companies to Avoid During Holiday Buying
Consumers’ Research issued a “Woke Alert” on Tuesday warning Americans not to buy from five prominent businesses in the country this holiday season.The consumer watchdog listed Best Buy, Activision, Target, Nordstrom, and Home Depot as the firms to avoid while shopping. “These five companies went Woke, and now they’re vying for your business on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Keep these companies’ woke antics in mind when you’re shopping for deals,” Consumers’ Research said. It advised people to “tell these companies to stop their woke ways.”
Follows, the naming of names, along with a brief summary of each PC retailer’s multiple offenses against decency, common sense, and Whypeepuh: Best Buy’s discriminatory restriction of its management-training program to non-caucasians only; Activision for same; Tarzhay you’ll doubtless be familiar with by now. The last two I hadn’t heard about before.
Nordstrom
Luxury store chain Nordstrom is affiliated with the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), which runs the “Welcoming School Program.”The program aims to “create LGBTQ+ and gender inclusive schools, prevent bias-based bullying, and support transgender and non-binary students.” HRC gives Nordstrom a 100/100 score for its promotion of LGBT policies at the workplace.
Over the past years, Nordstrom has donated almost $1 million to support LGBT activities. It has taken part in over 35 Pride festivals and parades across the nation.
Home Depot
Home Depot has also teamed up with HRC for the Welcoming Schools Program, which Consumers’ Research says is “specifically geared towards indoctrinating schools on how to promote LGBT ideology among vulnerable students under the guise of ‘inclusivity.’”
Sheesh. One wonders what, if anything, selling plywood sheets, 2x4s, hand tools, and assorted hardware has to do with LGBTQXR1369SKNXXX ideology. Which uncertainty, apparently, would reveal oneself as evil, unevolved, and not fit to walk around free amongst one’s ethical and intellectual betters.
Whatever happened to simply offering quality merchandise to interested customers at reasonable prices, your wares displayed in clean, well-organized stores staffed by courteous and competent personnel, pray tell? At what point did pimping the Progressivist ideological agenda become the most important part of your corporate mission? Do you malignant dickweeds actually believe your customers want you:
- Proselytizing bizarre psychosexual dementia to their children
- Officiously scolding them for their presumed racism, sexism, and/or homo-trans-Neegrow-Islamophobia
- Udermining their family’s values, religious faith, and their childrens’ respect for and loyalty to their parents?
- Deriding them for the deadly threat posed by their callous, unenlightened indifference to the climate, the culture, victimized minorities, world peace, “progress,” and general comity and civic well-being?
When did operating a chain of retail outlets become morally objectionable, the center of corporate focus shifted to political posturing rather than simply turning a profit for its shareholders? Has giving consumers value for their hard-earned money really become just très, très passé? Do you think your preaching, hectoring, and supercilious Woke-itude enhances the shopping experience for your customer base? Are you so deluded, so blissfully stoned-out on primo Leftist dope, that you seriously imagine the average customer has no choice but to buy from you and not your competitors?
Exactly what business do you shitheel CEOs think you’re in nowadays, anyway?
Update! Home Depot’s co-founder has to be quite displeased with the dark, dismal turn his former company has taken.
At 94, Home Depot Co-Founder Explains Why He’s ‘Never Been More Frightened for This Country’
“If you look at what’s going on around you, you know that we’re falling apart. Our economy is falling apart,” he told an audience in Palm Beach, Florida during an event for Job Creators Network, which he founded 10 years ago.“I get up every morning, I swear to God, and I say, ‘what the hell is [President Biden] going to do today to kill our country? And he never fails to disappoint me. Something always happens every day that makes this country weaker, not stronger,” Marcus added.
He explained how different America was when he started Home Depot. Of course it was challenging, but the world then allowed them to succeed. Now, small businesses are being crushed by inflation.
Marcus called on all those in attendance to do everything possible to save the free market from socialism—because under such a system, small businesses “will not survive.”
Marcus said going back to the “old America” is key, which is in line with his recent endorsement of former President Trump as the right man for the job.
“We have to go back. Trump was right,” he said. “We have to clean the place out. And we need someone who’s going to have a lot of cojones to do it.”
A lot of cojones—and Level IV body armor, and armed security teams, and constant head-on-a-swivel SA, among other things.
EDIT: I didn’t see the update, maybe Mike just updated as I was commenting or maybe I had the page open before it happened 🙂
Home Depots founder (1 of 2), Bernie Marcus has been pretty solid, a conservative supporter and Trump supporter early on.
“I’ve said this to all of my friends, anybody who would listen: if this election goes the way the last one went, this country will be a Third World country.”
Bernie Marcus says he’s ‘particularly pissed off
Marcus back Trump
I go to Lowes first however simply because it’s a NC company.
Same here, Barry, Lowes always has had a much better selection, particularly in the hardware department. A little bit pricier than HD, but it was worth it to be able to find what I needed. There was a Home Depot not far from the shop that me and Goose used to use for such things, and most times we’d end up having to go to Lowes anyway after coming up empty at HD.
Oh yeah, check out the update, I must’ve put it up right about the same time as you hit “Post comment.” Once again: great minds…
😉
Ha, yea Mike, the update wasn’t there when I started the comment, at least not in what I had opened.
I like HD OK, just never found it any better than Lowes which is NC owned. I do think the nuts and bolts at Lowes is better though, or it was at one time.
