Did you watch Chris Rock's Netflix special?
I could not agree more with his lines about Lululemon charging $100 plus for yoga pants and then lecturing us on politics. Who cares! He's right; they need to keep their politics out of the stores.
But, as we all know, everywhere you turn, there is another business lecturing us on political correctness and their views of equality. These companies should be worrying about their bottom lines and selling products, not lecturing us on social justice.
How many viewers have the NFL lost over kneeling during the National Anthem?ย Viewership is down as much as 20% since 2016. That's a business in decline!
The Walt Disney Company is paying a hefty price for putting politics ahead of parks, movies and streaming. Not only is their stock down close to 50%, but they are now going to be forced to pay property taxes. Yikes! Their corporate board might want to rethink canceling Splash Mountain and their belief that schools know better than parents how to educate their children. I am still waiting for someone to specify where the racism was in Splash Mountain.
Hershey is the latest company to get into the โgo woke go broke' mode. They cast a transgender activist in their International Woman's Day promotion.ย I guess they don't understand the definition of a woman!ย I have three words for Hershey โ just make chocolate.

Target got a ton of pushback for their transgender family bathroom policy.
It happens at local stores. I have walked out of stores that post โBlack lives matterโ signs.ย They don't get my business because all lives matter, and the protection of life should be color-blind! I am not for the cancel culture, but when I hear of a company going woke, I walk away.ย Shouldn't we all?
