In the article you posted, the narrative was that RedBull was taking a stand against “woke” culture. The firings were, in fact, for the opposite reason. RedBull fired the execs for not being sensitive to employee concerns on the culture.
Total gaslighting and you fell for it, again.
They zapped the entire project.
Again...
From your linked article...
Three weeks after the leak, Red Bull's corporate leadership in Austria fired Kozak, Taylor, and global head of music, entertainment, and culture marketing Florian Klaas, whose team was said to have chosen the slide. It also dissolved the teams that organize sponsored music festivals and other cultural events. Insiders called the firings acts of retaliation. "We reject racism in every form," Red Bull's board wrote in an all-staff memo.
They zapped all cultural events. Even insiders saw it as retaliation - not as choosing a different approach to advancing a woke corporate culture.
Coke went woke and sales declined 28%
McDonalds went woke and has declining customer traffic.
Listerine came out with multicolored gay pride mouthwash in June and the stock didn't move in the stores.
The corporates thought the vocal minority ruled so they bowed to them.
In reality the consumer rules and proved them wrong.
Red Bull just reminded their ‘wokest’ employees who calls the shots in a total massacre of “social justice warrior” employees.
Not only were the top two North American executives fired, but so were entire marketing teams and “culture” teams that were dedicated to pushing the lie of systemic racism.
Red Bull has just shown the way forward for all who want to prevent a total Marxist-style takeover of business and government in America. There is no appeasing these people, the only way forward is to fire them as quickly as possible, and with no mercy. Err on the side of firing everyone, if need be.
Somebodies woke ~

You are confusing correlation and causation. Health trends are a much more likely culprit for Coke’s sales declines. Same with McDonald’s.
I love this. Anytime anyone stands up the the crazy, that is now, I applaud!!!!!! This is great news. Biden you and your woke brainwashed followers suck. Take that!
This is not about Biden.
and it didn’t even happen like the OP suggested.
just more proof you guys will believe anything posted as long as it has woke or “leftist marxist commies” in the OP

Yep. They canceled the events that were planned by the guys who had circulated the racist slides. Tell me how that is being “anti-woke” again.

Of course it had nothing whatsoever to do with "going woke" in advertising and product appearance.
Just coincidence it happened after they initiated woke policies/products.
Just like 11K dying after getting vaccinated doesn't mean the vaccine killed them.

It’s good to know that one of us has studied consumer trends in the Carbonated Soft Drink industry. There are some great case studies from Harvard Business School on the subject if you ever find yourself interested in learning something new.
Curious how you explain Nike’s YoY revenue growth? I know “woke” and “broke” rhyme, but I have a hard time find any other connection.
Nike is like gold to the minorities. And that goes back way before any woke.
I didn't mention Nike because no matter what they do they still sell their sneakers as the majority of that consumer base wants their bling.
I've seen outright brawls in HS hallway because someone stepped on another person's white Nikes.
