Autocraticus 06/06/20 3:33:24 PM #15:	I'm not really considering this get woke, go broke. More like they feel the need to pander or else they will be slammed. Look at Nintendo. A company which, under Reggie, consistently decided not to wade into political or social waters, felt pressed to issue some statement. Even as their own Nintendo store was looted. They are all the same format. Black screen, white text. They just needed to push something out there to satiate the cancel crowd. <cite>Autocraticus posted [p:940277316] in Get Woke, ...

creativerealms 06/06/20 3:38:38 PM #17:	All the cancel crowd does is tell people not to watch or buy stuff. They have no power. What has a celebrity telling calling for cancellation of a person or company actually lead to that cancelation? Never. I mean liberals have been "canceling" Chick Fil A for years and it's one of the most popular racist food places.

Evening_Dragon 06/06/20 3:38:42 PM #18:	Yall act like this cynicism is somehow worthy of mention, as if it isn't as obvious as the sky being blue on a clear day. This is still a good side effect, however. It's not that industry cares about people, but it cares about perception, and now the popular go-to perception is to hate on racists. That means the message is working, overall. --- "A guy talking into the camera about politics?

What? I'm saying either way you are faced with stupid people. If you want to promote something virtuous, the right "boycotts" for a week and promotes get woke go broke. If you don't promote something virtuous, the left will go out of it's way to shout you down until you can only hear their voice about why you're wrong. Cancel you. These companies are in a bind.
