Here we go. The BIG test. Can be sure our govt will reimburse them for any losses, since they’ve been working together for decades. (Yes, we all know about the ‘tunnels’, etc.)
I’m sure there are a number of people here who will tell us they’re self-sufficient and don’t need Walmart but the majority of the population is not like you.
All of this for less than 1% of the population, globally and on No. American continent. It certainly isn’t being done to increase profits.
without price manipulation and free money, all these trans national zombie corporations will disappear quickly.
Walmart is a gold member for Pittsburgh’s pride march 6/3/23 plus a lot more other corps. There were a lot of participants bussed in for the event to give the illusion that there are a lot of Pittsburgh supporters.
@ExternalObserver Agree
@Sal2lee I have a cousin in Pittsburg and she reflects it.
Notice the first link below doesn’t even mention Walmart and the 2nd link is a bald-faced lie.
I went to Walmart before work at 11am today (across the street from work) and can tell you the parking lot was less than 1/2 full and the store was as well, when it’s usually jammed at that time. The parking lot was the same 1/2 full coming home at 5pm.
There were NO Pride displays and some clothing intermingled in the general clothing racks; in children’s (toddlers) and teens but, not in adult sections. Most the people with kids were Hispanic and breezed by not even noticing Pride, nor were there any such items in their baskets. I think they feel very secure in their culture. (Macho Baby!)
The sparse workforce looked exhausted and a bit on edge. Guess the bosses told them people were going to kick their asses but they appeared to know better.
See LGBTQxyz lie below, still no mention of Walmart. Used to have a little girl in my neighborhood who couldn’t say ‘WALmart’; it came out ‘MARmart’. I loved it and still call it Marmart to this day!
Someone’s rant on FB and the store is in Allegheny County, PA
“ Potentially offensive rant:
This has gone too far. I have no problem with an adult living their life the way they want. What you do in your bedroom is your business, but this in your face approach to get everyone to affirm this lifestyle is just too much.
This display is in my local Walmart as soon as you walk in the door. So now I have to explain to my 8 and 5 year old what this means.
And anyone who thinks it’s necessary to push this agenda on children is sick and twisted. Period.”
I agree. Don’t care if they’re xyz or straight. GET A ROOM! Leave the public (esp. kids) alone.
Marmart is supporting it. The email they sent me with ‘weekly specials’ was over-the-top.
The question I have is: Are they doing this to keep their Environmental, Social, and Governance (“ESG”) score high enough to please Blackrock or whoever keeps score? Or to keep up with the corporate Joneses, so to speak? Or out of fear of bad press from the lamestream media if they refuse?
They’re sure not doing their shareholders – or, for that matter, any of the groups in that alphabet soup acronym – any good. I don’t see how this is going to help anyone.
@FiatLux My thought on this is that money to them (the corporate elites) is no object for them. They are all saved by their god for their good deeds. Who ever owns the most shares makes the last decision. Why and how the lower players on the totem pole are not in an uproar about their shares going down, I don’t get that. Corporatocracy is fascism’s best friend.
So now we boycott these woke corporations whilst hurting the everyday workers (customer service, retail employees, office, supply train drivers, etc… The company folds and everyone is out of work. This step of theirs adds to the two class system. The unemployed depending on government along with the lower class worker bees against the minority upper class. It is so diabolical that it’s hard to wrap my mind around this. I’m not an evil thinker but I feel I must try to understand the enemy.
@Sal2lee I think you’re right about money not being the main goal for the elites at or near the very top of the pyramid. I’ve always thought their main concerns were control, social engineering, and influencing the course of world events. I’m just not sure they (whoever it is) chose to use the woke brigade as their useful idiots this time around. When the elite’s revolution is complete, they’ll throw the woke, Antifa, and their other foot soldiers under the bus. Just like Hitler did with the Brownshirts, once they’d served their purpose.
It’s even harder for me to imagine why so many companies go along with it, so I assume there must be a lot of pressure coming from the big guys at the top. Either that or Western civilization is literally going insane – or both.
Has anybody been to look at the People of Walmart website? What a hoot!
If you mean the people in the ads, they’re AI.
I think most, if not all of it is A.I.
Lots of websites I wonder about.
