Dear Friends,
It seems to me, the reason most big businesses are openly leftist, is because they’re terrified of being targeted by the leftists. It used to be that corporations kept a strictly neutral stance on politics and especially social issues… but not today. Our corporations are often at the cutting edge of societal revolutions. Like sterilizing children, alienating customers, and driving DEI down the throats of their employees. The reaction has been the gutting of Budweiser as a brand, with Harley Davidson and Disney right behind. Why did they destroy brands that took decades to build? Because of their fear of the globalist progressives. A fear that’s well founded I might add. Since the glee with which progressives burn institutions to the ground for political purposes, is as astounding, as it is terrifying.
We all know how the globalist progressive faction reacted the first time Trump was elected. Their wrath, gaslighting and lawfare was on full display. As was the lack of accountability for perverting their positions of authority after. From the Steele dossier and a special prosecutor awaiting Trump, to an impeachment for a protest, the progressive faction went “full retard.” Moreover, there have been zero consequences for them. Bolstered by Biden’s pardons of unindicted people. The insanity went on, after they swindled the American people in 2020, to include open lawfare. With a gusto that was only matched by their lack of self awareness. Using law to interfere with an election, by charging Trump with election interference, for asking people to follow the law. Showing their gaslighting and wrath.
Not only are the executives at our corporations afraid of crossing the globalist progressives, in many cases, the corporation itself is largely run by globalist progressives like Black Rock. Knowing most stock holders don’t bother to look into the background of candidates for executive positions, outfits like Black Rock put people on boards, who actively sabotage the companies. Destroying shareholder wealth in the process. As they did in Anhieser Bush, Harley Davidson and Disney. These are but a few of the many corporations the progressive faction has usurped, and put to their purposes, instead of providing value to customers and making money for shareholders. Because the progressive faction perverts everything it touches. Unlike Midas they have a touch of rot.
The reaction by the public has been loud and undeniable. People who drink Bud light are now subject to ridicule. Because of Bud Light’s commercials promoting the trans lifestyle. As are Harley riders. It’s like those companies didn’t know who their customers are? Try calling a biker gang a bunch of gays… and see what happens. Talk about not reading the audience. Did those executives planted by Black Rock and the others cowed into acceding, think driving woke down the throats of red blooded American men would go well? How about Disney executives pushing trans on kids? Such executives can be counted as some of the stupidest people to ever draw a breath. Yet their six figure incomes belay the fact. Confounded by their destroying brands in weeks that took decades to build.
Firms are starting to realize they have as much to fear from their customers, as from the progressive globalist faction, and even their rulers, Black Rock. While Black Rock may control the board and the rest of the executives rightly fear them, the collapse of Bud light, Harley and Disney are also strong motivators. Add shareholder revolts and legal entanglements, to the backlash from customers, and executives may think twice before throwing themselves on the sword of DEI. Which may be signaling a shift in the tide. While most executives couldn’t care less about shareholders or customers, but fear their progressive masters, they also fear losing their cushy jobs. So, I wonder if the days of Black Rock sabotaging corporations to forward progressivism, are numbered? I hope and pray so…
Sincerely,
John Pepin
