    Met people that say these “woke” companies shouldn’t get political but they will happily buy from companies like this. Isn’t surprising at all.

      Of course. It’s not political if it’s just The Way Things Should Be™

      • The two Races: White and Political
      • The two Genders: Male and Political
      • The two Sexualities: Straight and Political

      Their views are never “political” because theirs is the “natural state” of things. They’re on top because they deserve to be, and they deserve to be on top because they are. It’s anything that deviates from that so-called natural state that’s being political.

        Spot on. And notably if there’s anything “political” about the person, it is the first thing they mention about them in a conversation. Even if it’s not to say anything bad - it’s just how their brain works.

      Something that conforms to or supports my views: not political.

      Something that contradicts my views: political.

      Because they feel affronted and so this is “perfectly acceptable” revenge/payback. They do it with everything… It’s also why they’re ok with dictator Trump. When he says in plain English that he is seeking revenge they feel the same way and want the same thing because revenge implies that they were initially “wronged.”

      They always play the victim, it’s so absurd…

      People: “Don’t be a raging racist asshole, just treat all people with respect.”

      The right: “WAHHHHH! THE LEFT ARE AUTHORITARIANS WHO HATE US!”
