Yup. I also hate self checkout. I get why they want me to do the work so they don't have to pay someone to do it, but that same logic could extend to lots of things. Will I be expected to stock the shelves next? What they don't seem to grasp is that every cashier they let go is one more person who can't afford to buy anything from them. Given enough time they wont even need the self checkout lanes anymore.

Yes, because there are so many other choices now. The pandemic is the best thing to ever happen to Walmart and Amazon.

No it apparently is another right wing website referencing the same source first quoted by the OP as gospel. This is not what Walmart documents say. This is what right wing loonies are saying they say.

It's the same with people that watch Fox News. The average Fox News viewer is over 68 years old.

Half of Fox News' Viewers Are 68 and Older

People are constantly in their own bubbles and think that bubble represents reality.

It doesn't.
The message board seems far to the right because the American Mainstream is so far to the left it's become unrecognizable. Maybe that's the way they do things in China, but we shouldn't have state run media.

Yet all the dopes watching it are so clueless about that, they eat it up with a spoon.

It would be funny in the place I work at now. We're mostly other ethnicities! I think there's a total of five palefaces working there. I wonder how long we would get along with so much harmony if they were to indoctrinate us with this CRT crap?


Can you enlighten us as to what they did say? (I would sincerely hope they did not say what they're beeing accused of saying!)
I can't enlighten you because what they did say is not being quoted anywhere. All that is available is this clickbait right wind nonsense claiming what they said, without any corroboration. More BS for the gullible fools who buy into it. One of the websites actually claims that Walmart documents say .. and then has a link pointing back to the same idiot the OP is quoting. Oh boy. How many fools are buying this nonsense, for how many years? FEMA death camps, and tracking chips in covid vaccines, and the commies are coming to take away our liberties while people are sitting in their retirement club houses playing bingo. The sky is falling!

I've taken a look at the 53-page "Racial Equity Workshop" document and it checks out. The document has links that are working, including this at the bottom: https://www.walmartethics.com/conten...ics/en_us.html, which states "Our expectation is you will put fairness, equity, justice, and integrity at the heart of everything you do." That sentence indicates that Walmart is fully aligned with this kind of thing.

Appears real and legit.

The left wants to create resentment between the races. The smart blacks don't buy it.. of course those who want to be told they are oppressed and a loser in life because they have dark pigment is such a damn lie...but they eat it up..they have been trained by the lefty elite to do just that. They are the real racists.


Many know they are free.. they are no longer slaves. No longer under the control of the damn lie.. they are free. Liberated to know they are equal and can do anything and achieve anything and their skin color has nothing to do with achievement.



This CEO is fueling this lie. He should be ashamed . It is him who is a racist. And then telling white folks they have to learn that they are the racists.. what!! No common sense. This is poison and Walmart has made a terrible mistake.

Anyone with half a brain is aligned with this kind of thinking. Nowhere does it say white people need to feel guilty or inferior. It acknowledges people do have racial stereotypes, duh, and Walmart treats people fairly regardless of race. Double duh.
