I was once into rockcrawing and off-roading in a big way. There's a lot of camping involved so lots of camping gear is needed. I used to go to REI for camping gear and supplies until they announced that they contrubuted some of their income to The Roadless Initiative which is dedicated to shutting down off-road trails. It's like buying a gun then give to to someone along with the ammo to shoot you with. Of course I never darkened their door again and forbade my wife to ever shop there as well. To this day they remain on my shit list and they'll likly never get off of it. Not that I'm doing much camping these days.

Growing up in *the* Camping business, we got good exposure to these new "wonder fabrics", rip-stop & super insulators - all of them Petroleum based.  Tents, Jackets, sleeping bags you could just wring the water out of and they regained 90% of their insulating (hint, it's not goose down).  REI, North Face, Frostline, they all jumped all over the high-tech, petroleum based materials.

But, now that they've made their money, polluting the earth in the name of recreation... as they would call it, and their *recreational* stuff is choking the landfills like newspapers and diapers...,

what was that you wanted to say, North Face?  We're talking about unnecessary, luxury, recreational items, not essential, must-have-to-live stuff, right? 
Why are you biting the hand that fed & enriched you...?  Are you turning MARXIST too?

I just figured that if they didn't like me or how I lived then they probably wanted nothing to do with my filthy luker either.

I just don't understand what the end game for all these companies is. Why are they pushing this woke BS when they know the majority of people don't agree with it. :sad:

I explained it in another thread.

The CCP told them to do it, or they'll quit making their blades.
That's really what this is all about, supply chain. The CCP has managed to monopolize the supply chain, even Polaris, a company that claimed to be American made, assembled in Mexico, with CCP parts, pulled the same damn shit.
Trump tried to warn them, but they didn't listen, and Burger Queen is no different, there is a huge CCP connection they're afraid of losing.
They'd rather run the risk of pissing off Americans that a bunch of commies in China.

That's what this is all about. This chic fila issue has been dead for years, and Burger Queen was told to resurrect it from the dead.

Oh, that makes complete sense! So this is just another symptom of out sourcing entire industries. Wow. :sad:

BINGO!
Every woke corporation is under the thumb of the CCP. So when you boycott them, you're not only sending these corporations a message, you're cutting profit to the commie scum.

I think I need to write an article on this.

Solar has some good thoughts on this and I will add another. They are hiring too many Ivy League and Northwestern educate graduates.

Yep, they're trying to squeeze us out. This has been part of the plan for decades, but we didn't know it until just recently, last decade or two.
Reverse engineering what they've accomplished, (their plan) exposes just what they are, communists. I remember applying to the Sacramento fire dept, about 5 years after I got out of the army, they straight up told me, unless I change my last name to something Latino, I won't be hired. Affirmative Action, didn't mean to help people, but crush those who built this great nation.

Looking back? It is sooo obvious what was being plotted. It had absolutely nothing to do with fairness as they claimed, it was all about squeezing out the white man.
Pretty ingenious really and with a willing GOP, the commie plan was in the bag.

The entire university system is a scam. At one point in our history, it really was about higher learning, doctors, engineers etc.
But once they figured out a way to create useless paper, and create the illusion business wanted these kids, kids that had zero skill, in essence, stupid, they had a ready made mkt for Stockholm syndrome lemmings who will believe anything they're told.

Now they're attacking the very core of Americanism by forcing diversity on the very aspects that made our university system the envy of the world, by forcing the airlines and medical industry to accept people "Of Color" who couldn't pass the tests for commercial pilots license, to doctors.

Here we are witnessing their Brown Shirt army in action, Antifa, and BLM, are in fact the mentally ill, and paid by communists to disrupt society.
Like Trump said via Q, it had to happen this way, people needed to wake up and feel the steal themselves, they needed to witness what their future held.

And where is the GOP?

Sorry for the rant, just working through ideas for the article.

Ya those libtards get on the boards at these companies and convince them all that the MSM is right and that the country is moving left, is majority left wing, and that traditional america is on the wrong side of history and can be ignored.

This is not new. It began in the 60's.

Back then people of my generation had a decision to make. We could either choose the traditional life route or become a "flower child". Many of those flower children have now risen to positions of influence and we are seeing the havoc they can wreak.
