I have to think that even as fagophilic an organization as Wells Fargo (whose headquarters in the US is in San Francisco ... need I say more?) would discourage its employees from cultural advocacy when interacting with customers. Probably the only thing Wells cherishes more than butt-humpers is money, and offending customers might cost them a nickel or two.
The PC disease has infected many “Enlightened” CEOs,Ivy-League Professors, and the NPR crowd. Unless this Country returns to its Founder's ideals, I fear we are lost.
Sexual orientation should be is just as personal as bathroom habits.
As long its solo or with two consenting adults, keep that "stuff" private.
As soon as he mentioned the incident with the tie, I knew the story that followed sounded more like an account of a circus than of a bank.
Hoo boy.
If Wells is on the naughty list, who’s on the nice? Wells is kinder to people with bruised credit than a lot of other banks are. That’s why I picked it, years ago. And I can fairly say, they’ve never mailed me a “gay” ad or popped one in my face. But I don’t watch commercial TV either.
Maybe Adams could have finessed this by saying yes he’s anti-bullying. He doesn’t want the bank lending its stature to the bullying of bakeries, churches, etc. If the bank wants to see fewer of these “objectionable religious protection laws” then maybe it can withdraw from lending support to the causes that provoke their need.
I’ve been thinking of changing banks and this may be a good reason, but what bank is *NOT* in support of all this LGBTRDwhatever crap anymore?
Can anyone tell me with any degree of certainty? In ethics, it’s morally permissible to “cooperate with evil” as long as your cooperation is sufficiently remote. Given that it doesn’t seem I have anywhere to put my money other than under my mattress, to avoid this type of crap, I’d say I’m sufficiently removed from the evil.
But I’d like to know if I’m wrong. So anyone please tell me if any financial institution isn’t engaging in this stuff. Even just not taking a stand for it (not necessarily against it). I’m sure they all are, not because they really do “support” the effort, but because they see it as a good advertising/PR tool.
No surprise here as Wells Fargo ran a TV ad featuring two “Mommies” adopting a little girl.
They just dropped their credit score for loans to 601, that is how we melted down last time. They are feeling sorry for the homosexuals, they must be getting some sweet rates when they say they are an oppressed homosexual.
Any bank that starts getting too politically correct, spells doom. Time to pull your money, Bank of America and Chase too. They are the snakes of banks,(hey I like it a snake bank) I did loans with all of them, poor customer service, shysters.
Just this morning I found myself humorously wondering if some other group than homosexuals were so aggressively positioned on TV as gays have been, or even in webcomics, out of all proportion to their population?
Ignore the moral issues of homosexuality for a moment as I beat this horse.
Imagine if every sitcom, cop show or webcomic featured one or more wacky affable and thickly accented (just so you know that they are) Germans? If, as a comparative percentage of population, black characters were so pushed they might make all channels seem like BET. Why aren’t the indigenous Americans or Koreans thick as ants on a picnic in all entertainment media?
Whites have been over represented you say? Well, maybe ... but they also made up a large percentage of the whole American population /market and not some tiny group. I’m sure that Asians are pretty dominant in Chinese TV too.
Nothing really compares in entertainment to the homopositioning we see. It’s like it’s been determined that you just cannot be socially relevant in entertainment without the gays.
The last time I went to a Wells Fargo, I was greeted by a security person at the door and escorted to the teller line. The tellers were behind thick glass.
I don’t live in a ghetto. I don’t want to be treated like I do, or like somebody is worried I might steal something.
I do not bank at Wells Fargo.
Our credit union, founded by members of our local churches, is over 50 years old now. I am recognized and greeted with a smile, a cup of coffee, no bullet-proof glass, and no security guard asking me why I am here. Why would I bank anywhere else?
Brilliant!
Spot on.
Mike Adams hits another homerun.
Also, we dumped Wells Fargo the end of last year.
Excellent, as always.
I closed my account with Wells Fargo because of their anti Christian stance...Thrivent is an excellent Christian based investment firm. I moved some there and some elsewhere.
I have had accounts with several banks over the years, never had issues except with Wells Fargo...dealing with them was a nightmare. They have not had to worry about me being a customer for many years.
I love that man.
