Summary
U.S. corporations like Walmart and Meta are scaling back diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts amid political backlash, rising lawsuits, and the impending return of Donald Trump, who has pledged to eliminate federal DEI programs.
Critics argue these rollbacks could harm innovation, morale, and brand reputation.
While some companies rebrand DEI efforts under terms like “belonging,” experts worry reduced transparency and resources may undermine progress.
Anti-DEI lawsuits, fueled by Supreme Court rulings and conservative activists, are expected to grow under Trump’s administration, further challenging corporate DEI strategies.

Corporations only have one goal. To make as much money as possible.
There is nothing else. There is no moral obligation. There is no social contract. There is nothing but making as much profit as possible at all costs.
This is why capitalist democracy will always devolve. If I’m a large corporation that is powerful enough for meaningful political influence- I will always try to manipulate the system into a) eroding the free market so I have less competition and b) influencing the government to enact policies that subsidizes my operations. Eventually you end up with a system like 1930s Germany or modern China- where the state picks and chooses some favored corporations and allow them to dominate the market in exchange for cooperation and subservience. Like Volkswagen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen#/media/File:Bundesarchiv_Bild_183-H06734,_Grundsteinlegung_für_Werk_des_KdF-Wagens.jpg
So when a company says something about how much they love X or Y or Z and inclusion and diversity and whatever other buzz word of the month- they are saying it in order to maximize profits and they will stop saying it the moment the calculus changes.
Corporations will never be on the side of the people, neoliberals cozing up to them will never result in change.
They’ll always prioritize profit over everything. So when we have a chance to reign them in, we need to capitalize on it.
Kiss the ring, you greedy fucks
If that country keeps going backwards they should have racial segregation again by Christmas.
