Through and endless barrage of “diversity and inclusion” marketing over the past 10 years corporations have convinced people they care about marginalized people, underrepresented minorities, and every social cause in the world.
In reality they’ve turned human beings into quota. Some of these companies actually put their “diversity stats” in annual reports and on their websites, essentially showing off how many minorities they can collect.
Unfortunately minorities have become a tool woke corporations can parade around to make themselves “look good.”
It doesn’t make them look good. It’s dehumanizing. And it’s surprising how many people still support this charade.
Then since that is the case, it's quite clear how this is court case is going to end and for that someone, it will end in tears.
That someone is going to end up crying very badly and a bunch of their fans supporting them will scream in outrage whilst another person walks out the door free.
I believe the case is about defamation and there is a counter suit. It is not at all clear how the defamation verdict will go even if everyone believes everything plaintiff said. Believing Depp to be a victim of spousal abuse is much easier than thinking defamation (in the legal liability sense) occurred.
Rich people have this sort of "everybody who is not me is either evil or a slacker" mentality.
It's true for both sides, matter of fact it's true for every side and everywhere.
But the petulancy of rich Californians is unrivaled, they don't even pretend to put together a coherent argument to express why people should put them in charge of organizations. "Current thing" what the hell does it even mean?
At least John Kerry and Larry Fink, the Davos crowd and all the proponents of ESG go through the effort of producing some 1500 pages documents with figures and numbers as opposed to blurting into the ether stuff like: "The current thing is truth"
I disagree about the petulance of rich Californians. Their petulance -- along with the persecution complex many rich Californians exhibit -- is generally exceeded by working-class white conservative Christians, incels, and Reddit users who have just gotten downvoted.
Not to mention Madison Cawthorn (R-Narnia). His petulance in the wake of his primary defeat and being dragged out of the closet threatens to eclipse that of his entire constituency.
These kids will grow up remembering that a very specific group of people of a certain ideology kept them out of school, masked, and plugged into a zoom monitor for as long as possible.
Most of Musk's politics posting started after Business Insider contacted him about the $250K hush payment to the flight attendant he had harassed. He was setting the scene to portray the coming reputational firestorm as political ax grinding.
> But Tesla’s shares have declined more than 40 percent since April 4 — a much steeper fall than the broad market, vaporizing more than $400 billion in stock market value.
