Go Woke…

Dick’s Sporting Goods blames equity … SORRY … ‘organized retail crime’ for MASSIVE drop in profits [More]

Funny, they didn’t say a word about this the other day… About those new locations– I wonder if they’ve put them in areas where DEI is “underrepresented.”

I also wonder if they had similar floor loss problems when gun owner business was a thing for them…

Ride the Gravy Train to Equityland

ABC television network devoting two prime time hours to 1619 Project ‘documentary’ arguing for slavery reparations – There seems to be no end to the destructive propaganda emanating from the Walt Disney Company. [More]

It’s what they do.

And this does not bode well for the state of public sentiment and the likelihood of ’24 heralding a return to national senses…

Now Comes Miller Time

Gunmaker Heckler & Koch inserted themselves into the “woke beer wars” by showing support for Miller Lite’s cringeworthy feminist campaign against the use of “sexy women” in product promotions. HK praised Miller Lite for their decision not to employ sexy “bunnies” in their beer advertisements. The gunmaker took it a step further the following day, issuing a second tweet denouncing such “objectifying” advertising campaigns as “trash marketing.” [More]

I don’t have anything to do with either company except to note Miller has made its market choices and H&K always struck me as pricey disarmer armers.

That said, the use of tit girls in gun ads always struck me as disingenuous, pandering, and more than anything, existentially trivializing.

And forgive me if I also find the term “gentlemen’s club” oxymoronically absurd.

I’d Say ‘Good for the Goose, Good for the Gander,’ But I Hear That’s Offensively Binary

This game lets you play as a trans character and go around killing people who aren’t on board with the trans agenda like Priests and “TERFs” (Trans exclusionary radical feminists) like J.K. Rowling. [More]

So if I post a game where the object is to slaughter virtual trans characters nobody will try to destroy me in meat space…?

No ‘Almost’ About It

America’s latest threat, “the woke,” almost as bad as communism [More]

They either are communists or they’re willing useful idiot sympathizers.

I recall a book from years ago (Winter’s Tale?)that said something to the effect of communists are people whose insides are twisted up because they want to change the world but they can’t even get their letters to the editor published.

The communists ARE the editors and have been for some time.

Rope-GIVING ‘Capitalists’

REPORT: The Black Lives Matter Movement Has Received a Stunning $82 Billion From Corporations [More]

Paid for by end customers through higher prices, of course.

I wonder how many give because they’re truly “woke” fools, how many submit to extortion out of cowardice, and how many believe it will buy their way out of the tumbrels.

How to Make a Monster

Teacher confiscates student’s Nintendo Switch during class. Student then attacks her, kicking and punching her, leaving her unconscious. [More]

Take a wholly undisciplined mental defective and drill into him from the start that he’s a systemic victim and that anyone not immediately surrendering whatever he feels entitled to is disrespecting him, and what other result does anyone expect?

I don’t suppose suggesting that being immersed for their formative years in unnatural woke school indoctrination could have an impact on weak minds that snap and go on killing sprees would be received well by the folks who say the answer is citizen disarmament…?

Or would anyone inquiring be wished dead?

I Beg to Differ

Unfettered democracy and markets cannot be controlled by a tiny, self-serving elite. [More]

Sure they can. What does this guy think “two wolves and a sheep” and woke corporate struggle session cancel culture abrogating rights government isn’t ready to take on yet are all about?

Freedom is Slavery

Harris Teeter responded by thanking the customer and telling her they would be discontinuing the “Freedom Series” items. [More]

I’ve been over to their Twitter feed and seen plenty of PO’d “Get woke go broke” posts, but not the one that set this in motion. It’d be nice to know who the cowardly “customer” that deleted her “complaint” was,  the company she keeps, and other “progressive” nonsense she routinely spews.

Ah, here we go: Doing the job the Faux News “real reporter” didn’t do. She deleted her account but that’s enough of a thread to pull to find out she’s “NC State Twitter Lead for @momsdemand.” And more, but I don’t dox.

Looks like Harris Teeter has picked its side. Not that there’s much incentive to change. Parent corporation Kroger asking Congress to enact more customer disarmament hasn’t seemed to hurt the bottom line.
