This is what I don't understand. Yes, corporations pander to marginalised demographics, but I have not once seen them lose significant income or have been boycotted. Fascist corporations, meanwhile, lost customers and stocks like Target and Tesla.
Like really, who's going broke? Methinks this is projection from the right, or disinformation from state or non-state actors alike to keep the population divided.
What are you talking about? Tesla's stock price is coming back up in line with everyone else. They're actually doing much better than more woke companies like Apple.
Its planning on getting a massive welfare infusion for a fake missile defense system it will never be able to make work while the government it now half owns is planning on tariffing most of the leading brands of cars. Meanwhile the only inherently profitable thing it actually does which is to say make cars its doing very poorly at.
Apple is doing incredibly well at selling phones and computers but the Trump administration is not only threatening to tariff stuff made overseas they specifically threatened to tariff iPhones specifically.
So in brief Apple stock is going down despite being great at its business whilst Tesla is on its way back up even as people won't buy their cars. Its just corruption.
You can put any meaning you want into the situation. But some people are making profits and you're making excuses.
Defrauding the government for things you cannot possibly provide isn't really showing your companies quality. Apple actually makes things people use and makes a ton of money doing it. Elon makes bad cars and spaceships that blow up a LOT. Neither of these is actually profitable without welfare. He is good at high stakes welfare fraud whilst Apple is good at actually earning money.
