When last you heard about Black Lives Matter founder Patrisse Cullors, it was because news broke that she’s not just a “trained Marxist,” she’s also a real estate maven, owning four high-end properties in predominantly White neighborhoods. But did you know that she’s also an “Electric Slide line dance” queen? And that the fuzzy, ugly UGG shoes you wear during the winter are her dance partners in this terpsichorean effort? The alliance between BLM and American corporations is strong.
By now, you know all about Cullors. You still need to learn a little more about UGG to appreciate this story. UGG was an Australian shoe company that specialized in ugly but comfortable sheepskin boots and slippers. What many may not realize is that a California-based corporation called Deckers Outdoor Corporation (aka “Deckers Brands”), with $1.9 billion in worldwide revenue, bought UGG Holdings in 1995.
UGG now has a decidedly American leftist tilt. In addition to its parent company supporting leftist causes, last year, UGG pledged $500,000 to BLM and related Marxist-racialist organizations. That wasn’t enough, though. Earlier this month, it proudly sent out an announcement about a partnership, not with BLM, but directly with Cullors:
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California-based global lifestyle brand UGG® (a division of Deckers Brands [NYSE: DECK]) is proud to support Patrisse Cullors, Nobel Prize-nominee, New York Times Bestselling author, artist, and cofounder of Black Lives Matter,

Pathetic. I sure hope they don’t ID people who may try to get into this hate-fest.
The world has many places where there are basically no white people at all (Detroit is an example). There will be many more of such places in the coming years. These malcontents should go to such places so we can’t persecute them. Without black and brown people around to torture and kill, we will learn our lesson as our existence will lose all meaning. Their lives will all improve from being away from White Supreemacy. THIS should be the stated goal of BLM.
Commie thug... female version.
It’s really very simple......Corporations have always been much more fearful of the left as their animosity is more acute their boycotts are more effective, their vitriol more damaging and their propaganda is more more widespread as it is propagated by the vast majority in the media.
Bottom line, corporations are vastly more concerned with profit than all other considerations combined and their going to follow the path of least resistance to that end. Granted, their are a few “true believers” in the corporate world but they are vastly outnumbered by execs who simply want the safest easiest way to generate profit.
A very poorly written article.
Let Andrea know.
And just when I thought I couldn’t feel more contempt for her BLM minions. Apparently they are all fine with this.
BLM is a fraud. She’s doing what they all aspire to. Getting rich without having to earn it.
There’s a certain irony, because she is a “trained Marxist”, and as a proud Marxist, she should not be aspiring to all this material wealth.
Since under communism we theoretically would all be equally living at a subsistence level, she is a living contradiction to the theories of Marx and Engels she supposedly supports.
No ‘dacha’ for you!
Theoretically true. However in practice every commie country is divided into the wealthy, the apparatchiks and the poor. Marxism is just a con game.
Vid was utter CRINGE.
LOL! I had a feeling and avoided the train wreck.
The Electric Slide is still a thing? I hate it almost as much as Billy Ray Cyrus’ music.
A smallish thing in some country bars. Saw it recently actually. May see it tonight at the Red Dog Saloon in Virginia City with me and a couple friends providing music. LOL! (No billy ray stuff though)
She is a mafia Donette running a shakedown protection racket.
If blacks were intellectually superior, then I suspect black supremacy would reign.
