The Annals of Corporate Cringe and Woke Marketing

Surprised we didn't have something covering this yet so... here comes another thread of hot take reactions to craven Corporations and how they grovel before Social Media mobs, SJW's and engage in vapid Woke Marketing.


Not only did Nike (and Coca-Cola and Apple etc) lobby against bills in Congress meant to crack down on the importation of goods created by Xinjiang Slave Labor... but now they're doubling down on being CCP shills and advocates as revealed in an Investors Conference Call.

Breitbart said:
“We are concerned about reports of forced labor in, and connected to, the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR),” the company said in a statement. “Nike does not source products from the XUAR, and we have confirmed with our contract suppliers that they are not using textiles or spun yarn from the region.”

Despite its proclamation that it has worked to make sure its products are not made with slave labor, Nike also lobbied against a bill in Congress that would place a ban on goods produced by the slave labor in camps in China’s Xinjiang region.

Right after the company’s March statement, Chinese state media outlets, the nation’s Foreign Ministry, and Communist Party-controlled social media launched a multi-faceted campaign against Nike. For instance, social media posts showing Chinese citizens burning their Nike gear flooded the country’s government-controlled social media sites.

In another case, Chinese state media operative Hu Xijin of the Global Times, warned Nike and others, saying, “all multinational enterprises should stay away from geopolitics.”

Nike CEO John Donahoe rushed to reassure China’s communist rulers that his sportswear company is all about working with them, saying that, “Nike is a brand that is of China and for China.”

CCP knows how to put their... I'm sorry... our corporations in their place apparently.

Looks like the Wikipedia Foundation is filled with Progressive Ally/Labor Abusers as well...

Oh Wikipedia was lost to the progressives more than a decade ago.

Coke may be in even more trouble. Seems they can be hit with a 'Truth in Advertising' item given they claim their product is not changed from one bottling plant to another....when in fact the ingredients and their amounts can vary depending on where you purchase it from. Also Coke is the worlds largest plastic pollution creator easily beating out Nestle. They should just go back to cheap reusable glass bottles.

The current crop of Nissan ads are one of the reasons I will never ever by any Nissan product. Hyundai and Kia are way better IMO.
Korean cars are cheaper and better then a lot of Japanese cars IMO. A buddy got a brand new Hyundai for 23K, and it is pretty good, with the exception it seems to have a limiter on it speed wise. That is about it, dude gets 35 MPG. Dallas and back on one tank and still didn't need gas.

My Hyundai Sonata Hybrid gets 41 MPG everyday for me. I can literally drive 50 miles with the gas tank near E (Had to do that one time 2 years back) and not run out of gas. Add in the fact for a mid sized car it has plenty of leg room for a tall guy like me. I just love that car.

>Labour commissioned
That's it, its a great picture for representing that party, it would be a great idea for any local opposition to add it to any Labour materials, advertisements and mentions whenever possible. Make them proud of it, whether they want to be or not.

Shame. But you know the saying, go woke, go broke.

For the record, Rittenhouse was absolutely in the right to defend himself at every point he used his gun.

So basically they are saying we are waiting to see if he is innocent or guilty.
