Major Corporations and their feel good garbage,.............
Is anyone besides me getting sick of the constant puke coming out of major companies press releases? This is just the latest that is being sent my Walmart to anyone, and everyone that has ever bought anything from them online I guess. Yea,....we need a more inclusive society. How the heck could you possibly make things more 'inclusive' than they already are?
I think inclusive is not really the word they are looking for.
| "Changing the future, together We know it takes more than talk—it takes action The events surrounding the tragic, senseless death of George Floyd in Minneapolis have put a spotlight on the injustice that exists in our country. We know many of you are hurting, exhausted, angry, and discouraged right now—we are, too. What is taking place is further proof we must stand together, push for change, and help build a more inclusive society. It’s not only what we believe, it’s also at the core of the most basic principles of human rights and justice. We know that Walmart has a role to play in changing the future by making a positive impact on racial equity. We also know it takes more than talk—it takes action. Inside the company, our work to recruit, develop, and support African Americans and other people of color will be even more of a priority. To influence and lead change in society more broadly, we are going to invest resources and develop plans to increase fairness, equity, and justice in aspects of everyday life. Specifically, we’re going to focus the power of Walmart on our nation’s financial, healthcare, education, and criminal justice systems. Building on what our business can do, Walmart and the Walmart Foundation are also committing $100 million over five years through a new center for racial equity. The goal of the center will be to address racism in society head-on and accelerate change. The doors of Walmart have always been open to everyone, and they always will be. A Walmart store isn’t just a place that’s in a community, it’s part of a community. It is representative of all America—and of all Americans. Our stores and clubs should be a place where every individual can feel welcome and know they will be treated with respect as they work or shop. What our country is experiencing right now reminds us of the need for us to support each other and to come together. Until we, as a nation, address the hard realities of racial discrimination and injustice, we will never achieve the best of what we can be." | |

Fact is these people (DEMOCRATs) despise capitalism. Corporate America can NEVER appease these people. The magnanimous amount of charity these corps donate is rarely reported and considered as merely placation by Corporate media and their DEMOCRAT sponsors. Take a look at the property destruction going on during the Floyd protests. Change to these people means Marxism and socialism.
As far as coming together, not a chance as long as corporate and social media spread fear, propaganda, and hate. These people are so obsessed with getting rid of Donald Trump, they could care less what happens to the country.
Luckily I had recorded the show and it only took about 10 seconds.
That said, Walmart is taking the locks off of the Afro sheen shelf because, apparently in today's environment, locking up prolifically pilfered products is politically impolite.
