[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of you assume Costco, Walmart, Target etc aren't also bending the knee.....

I'm more amused than anything else. I had to watch corporate America bend the knee to BLM and Floyd and Biden four years ago and now they're bending the knee to the opposite. At this point I really don't care and will continue using Prime because it's fantastic and love the discounts at Whole Foods and otherwise works great for me and I don't make up grievances because no one else is better.[/quote]
Good for you. It’s tough to imagine something more gross than using the phrase “bend the knee” in relation to George Floyd.

Don’t listen to this person. They are trying to discourage you from taking action. Americans have largely forgotten how to strike, boycott, and protest. It’s time to wake up. Costco has announced they will continue DEI practices. Earlier in this thread an app was posted that allows you to see where corporations spend your money. Do what you can do and then do a little more! Don’t listen to the other side telling you that you don’t have any power and agency. Your wallet is probably the most powerful weapon you have right now.

It's clear you have an agenda and are partisan and righteous. I don't, I'm not partisan and I don't see myself as consumed with righteous zeal, which is why I see the hypocrisy everywhere. Including among those who bent the knee in 2020 in the face of destructive riots that they called civil disobedience and hailed the BLM (which turned out to be a deeply corrupt organization, but what have you). Corporate America everywhere is getting rid of DEI, removing mandates and all that. Do you know why? Because they're tired of the "righteous" people. Singling out Amazon is only hypocrisy. You can do what you want but trying to claim the pathetic mantle of righteousness is still only just that - hypocrisy. [/quote]
