I go on pretty much any website, in my Instagram feed, on my TV every company is saying stuff like "we stand with black lives matter" etc. They were not saying that last week. How long do you think this will last this time? It's pride month right now so I'm guessing it will taper off midway thru the month till the major corporations that use slave labor switch up an put rainbows on everything. Maybe they will incorporate both together in a virtue signalling extravaganza this year.

Right now many companies want to stay out of it. But it's just easier to post 1 thing than have to continue to address why you are not. What a lot of people who are getting upset about companies not doing is that they do not understand that making people/companies feel bad about not getting involved actually makes them care less. It becomes something that they are forced to do & you don't make friends when you're forced to do things.

To me there is a serious issue going on but I almost feel some people are looking to gain power from this.

Not suprised. It simply promotes victimhood/divisiveness. Vile Media wins again

Imo no you are very wrong. All large corporations very much want in on the action. Type in any major brand or retailer in your search bar and go to their main website an it's BLM stuff on the main banner on the front page. They are not being forced to do this but if they are who is forcing them?

What are you saying? The companies that say they support the anti-cop, anti-white BLM are donating to their cause? Thanks. I’ll know whom to steer clear of.

Any company that takes a side with such a controversial organization needs its head examined.
