    I mean come on, do we actually expect any billionaire CEO to not bend down and suck off Trump? It’s not like they actually believed in DEI to begin with, it just aligned with the current political climate that was beneficial to stock prices at the time.

      Only one I’ve seen so far, but Costco’s board just overwhelmingly reinforced their support for DEI.

      But they’re clearly the exception… No, I don’t expect anything more from these scumbags.

      It’s shorter to list all the companies that aren’t preemptively complying with the fascist regime:

      1. Costco

      Edit several days later:

      1. Delta Airlines

      2. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA team

      3. JP Morgan

      4. Apple

        In a “broken clock is right twice a day but clock running backwards is right 4 times a time a day” kind of way, financial institutions seem to be mostly ignoring them. I don’t know if being just evil instead of evil and stupid is much of an improvement, but there’s that.

          and so a clock running backwards a 2x speed is right 8 times a day and then if it runs backwards at infinite speed it’s right alwayds(this is not a comment on politics i’m just thinking abt clocks)

            Nah you’re talking about politics.

            The clock has been broken for the past 20 years or so (congressional deadlock).

            Now it’s running backwards at 2x speed and gaining momentum.
