Why are big corps going woke?

Reading Vivek’s latest book now. Not sure if I have any juicy excerpts, but it is all about this, plus, I don’t want to spam.

The claim that it’s just about capitalism has been disproved many times from case studies and examples involving movies, companies, etc. I have heard the argument that it’s more of an investment in “futures” and I am open to the possibility. Also, I am open to all your points.

However, there comes a time when we see movies bomb and companies fold, where you must ask yourself if Larry Fink and Alex Soros and others are motivated by ethnic hatred. We already see this claim of “forced behaviors,” which invalidates any claim that we need to “save our democracy.” We also see mandated gender and race quotas and percentages. We do not see these mandates in government, media, banking or military.

So, one must wonder if Larry Fink, Alex Soros, Pritzker, Victoria Nuland, Samantha Power and others are  simply hateful of ethnicity. Are they motivated by racial hatred?

This is not in the book at all though. Want to make that very clear. I have nothing to do with Vivek, but he has that energy that I like from a leader and he’s super young.

 

A Wall Street cartel has quietly seized control of the American economy, and they are forcing governments and businesses to bow down to their political agenda—using your money to do it.

Three Wall Street firms have quietly amassed more money than Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Andrew Carnegie, and John Rockefeller combined. But the money isn’t even theirs. These asset managers have accumulated all their power through “passive funds,” as most investors no longer believe anyone can reliably pick stocks. Yet the Big Three have decided that they can reliably pick the right social policies instead.

As entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy reveals, the results are all bad—and working their way into every corner of the economy. They force US companies to adopt “racial equity audits” and “emissions caps” while supporting human rights atrocities in China. They coerce Western companies to produce less oil while shifting production to dirtier places like Russia. They allow companies like FTX to take victory laps on good management while collapsing like a house of cards. They charge high fees to mom-and-pop investors for so-called sustainable funds that are effectively identical to lower-fee index funds.

Worst of all, they’re celebrated as heroes—at least so far. Capitalist Punishment lifts the veil on the largest fiduciary breaches, antitrust abuses, and First Amendment violations of the twenty-first century, misdeeds that are hiding in plain sight.

This isn’t just a threat to capitalism. It’s a threat to democratic self-governance itself.
