No coincidence that Mulvaney visited the White House ahead of this break-out.
I was thinking he had a copy of Maxwell’s Epstein list. I’m sure there were a lot of these corporate big shots on it.
It’s extortion. “Nice little business you have here. It would be ashamed should something happen to it after the mob of activists start protesting in front of corporate headquarters. I hope you have excellent security for your employees and assets”.
I know everyone likes fearporn and Soros and Blackrock are the conservatives' boogiemen, like how Halliburton was to liberals during the Dubya era. I also understand it's fashionable to blame wokeness for everything, and to be sure it is a caustic element in society.
But please...Anheiser-Busch was acquired by InBev years ago, and InBev is majority controlled by families. Blackrock could short their stock, and the families could care less.
Further, Kate Spade is a sub of Tapestry, Inc., which is about 7% owned by Blackrock. Nike is also about 7% owned by Blackrock. Does this mean Blackrock can influence these firms? Yes. Does it control them? No, especially if the other 93% of the owners think going woke is stupid.
The reality, is that the overwhelming majority of FReepers are simply not in these firms' target demographic. They don't care about us. The current and future buyers of their sneakers, women's value-priced glasses frames and pocketbooks, and low-priced beer, are basically GenZers and maybe Millenials. That's where the money are.
The geniuses at these firms have made a decision, MAYBE based on research, that making their spokesman the current day equivalent of Divine will appeal to their curstomers AND capture new buyers. Parenthetically, at least Divine was funny and Glen knew Divine was an act.
Maybe some ESG stockholder is asking questions. But stockholders love one thing - increased stock price. Sure, they are also interested in social things, but if the stock price doesn't rise, these firms are possible takeover targets OR management gets fired.
In short, the perception seems to be, that people under 35 (i.e. Their customers) are all-in on this nonsense. It's a fair question, to ask what person in marketing didn't examine the possible blowback on this strategy. It's like when Balenciaga ran that creepy child porn-like advertising campaign. And for what it's worth, most of the folks I know under 35 aren't creeped out by gays but the trans stuff IS very much at WTF kid of thing.
What people on this side of the fence need to ask, is what is the compelling alternative to Divine circa 2023 as a spokesman? What campaign would WE run to sell bad beer, overpriced sneakers, and women's stuff to folks under 35? Because we should have destroyed the Dems in the midterms, and we barely took the House. It's not enough to say "we aren't Bidet or Merrick Garland or Pelosi, and we're not weird."
We need messaging that invigorates, leads, and captivates people. Until then, it's the left that is driving the truck, and keeping us on defense. Stop being a bunch of pantywaists. Stand FOR something.
That should definitely be watched. I just saw Alex Soros visited the White House 14 times (that we know of officially) during Biden’s term. Evil is brewing at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
And yet, Dylan Mulvaney was invited to the White House by the Burdens.
The Rapidly Expanding Transgender Cult Is the Product Of Cultural MarxismM
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4144056/posts https://thefederalist.com/2023/04/06/the-rapidly-expanding-transgender-cult-is-the-product-of-cultural-marxism/
Briefly, we must reject the premises of the cultural Marxist because cultural Marxism itself cannot live peaceably with federal republicanism or individual autonomy. In fact, it demands the opposite: All things are constrained by the state and its desires. Rules must be universal. Governing individuals is like herding cats, whereas ruling over a collective molded by both state pressures (law, force) and social forces (shame, shunning) is a more gratifying task, especially because the molding, if done well, creates a populace that reflects back the will of the state to itself. The state is now God, and its citizens, made in the state’s image, are its supplicants.
It’s already happening.
Nike fought back against extortion by Avenetti by going public...(although I do think the FBI helped Nike nail him) so why don’t these corporations Just Say No....and let their customers know what is going on?
The Arcus Foundation practices the same MO and has an army of lawyers.
“”Jessie Jackson should get royalties””
As I have said, with no conscience or soul, DemoKKKrats are capable of anything. Jessie Jackson ‘made’ so much money with his shakedowns he even has a large ranch with expensive horses.
When Billy Boy Clinton was having more of his ‘troubles’ Jackson was said to be ‘ministering’ to him, as if the right reverend could guide Billy Boy anywhere. The reason I mention this is the now famous (infamous?) photo of Jackson and Clinton by the swimming pool. Next to Jackson was a very pregnant woman, a woman pregnant with Jackson’s offspring. The woman was not Jackson’s wife. Drive-By Media could care less, as long as the DemoKKKrats remain in power.
Audrey Hepburn’s mummy.
Nuke ‘em,from orbit.😝
That's called extortion. Extortion is a crime. Get the lawyers to work.
VERY nicely referenced, impact likely underappreciated.
Right on target with Dane-geld.

What is a gender neutral dress code? Something from THX1138?
