Apparently, Google is the queen of woke.
I know I should be angry, but honestly the copywriting on this is cracking my shit up. “So woke they never sleep” these bigots are comedy gold.
It’s simply amazing to consider YouTube an enemy when YouTube is basically the soul reason right wing propaganda has spread to the level that it has today. YouTube is the breeding ground for the alt right. Their complaint is literally the opposite of reality, and as I type that I realize I’ve typed that a lot before haven’t I? Same old shit I guess.
But what other company can I rely on to give me a megaphone to tell people how much I’m being silenced?
I think more that they mean that alphabet has a massive dei programs. Special teams for minorities, required reporting on dei compliance for orgs, and official recognition of minority holidays etc for their employee base.
DEI is woke. I guess I should’ve realized this sooner.
Treating everyone with basic human decency = “woke”
This is absolutely true, but not in the sense this is trying to portray. They censor me hard, and I’m not even that political, just anti-spyware. They censor anything they don’t like, so if you slight them for being a mass-data collection organization that shit all over their own old slogan, they put you on their shit list actively keeping you from being able to speak. Really, Google isn’t “woke” more so just a bunch of pandering opportunist capitalist predators in sheep’s wool. The word “woke” itself has devolved.
It’s annoying that these big, evil corporations that woke people hate are considered “woke” by conservatives.
It’s annoying
I find it hilarious that Google is getting hate from both sides. It’s not like they don’t deserve it, DEI aside.
Fellas, is it woke for YouTube to funnel viewers towards pro-fascist videos?
That’s actually how I feel like many are arguing. I don’t like it, because it’s woke. And it’s woke, because I don’t like it
Looks like Taco Bell is woke free
I’d much rather have woke IADS than sleepy IADS tbh
They don’t even have ratings for Nestlé or Coca-Cola. What the fuck is this
Nestle isn’t woke. It’s evil. That’s why it’s not listed.
I’ll never buy a Lockheed Martin product again.
I had to throw away my brand new F-35 Lightning II. I hate SJWs so much for this!!!
As a joke I was looking for general everyday items they might’ve sold but now I feel like I’m on a new list.
I did find cool Hawaiian satellite shits that I kinda want now
No lie, I want that shirt
Hoellee shit. I need that
They launched that whole fucken fashion line as a pr stunt, it pains me that they’re actually pretty snazzy clothes
I wonder if the Rights theory of “go woke, go broke” will stand up to Lockheed Martins profit margin during two wars…
Fun Fact: Novelist John Ringo is usually given credit for inventing that slogan.
John Ringo currently has trouble getting his novels published under his own name because he started going mask off and now has to post his racist shit to Substack.
…
(Okay I’d still buy an actual end to the Aldenata and Looking Glass series, but still)
Is there a military scifi writer that is not an altright shit bag?
David Weber is a conservative and a monarchist, but not alt right. Kind of gives Tolkien vibes sometimes, honestly, in that you’re pretty sure he supports the Divine Right of Kings but wouldn’t be okay with war crimes. I’m pretty sure he doesn’t like gay people but he doesn’t go out of his way to beef with them either.
John Scalzi doesn’t have any damage I know of.
Dennis E Taylor literally has some characters talking about “both sides” in a recent entry with a plot about shape shifting lizard people controlling the government, but the Bobiverse made me think more classical liberal than ancap wingnut. Bobiverse is great regardless.
There are others. I think. Helldivers by Nicholas Sansbury Smith seemed fine but I wasn’t interested in reading past the first one.
Edit: Craig Alanson! My current favorite, ExForce is great. Mileage may vary later in the series, Skippy can get a little annoying/abusive.
I read a few of his books and really disliked his elementary Economics understanding. He really lays it on thick towards a Libertarian utopia of selfishness.
Yeah, he’s not subtle in his politics, but he only started getting in trouble when the white supremacy angle started to become undeniable.
It’s one thing to have the Rayndian Ubermensch solve everything with capitalism and bootstraps while that dang guvment tries to get in the way, it’s another to spend a whole book mansplaining that Latino culture will never amount to anything while it’s “obsessed with machismo” while being a sexist prick with a clear rape fetish.
https://buywokefree.com/brand-profile/general-mills/
I’m looking at their page for General Mills and I’m like “which part of this is so disagreeable that you’d boycott them?” 😂
Looked at the main homepage… the “not woke” companies seem to be mostly “natural health/holistic” bullshit like you’d hear Alex Jones scream about.
The seem pretty run of the mill to me.
Run of of the… general mill? 👀
Damn those homosexuals, they ruined warmongering!
Alright Nixon’s head, let’s get you to bed.
guess ill be buying my civilian murder tools elsewhere!
They ranked Raytheon as on Woke instead of EXTREMELY WOKE. Didn’t see any non-woke defense companies though ☹️☹️☹️
Is this an app, a website? I need to start finding those woke businesses so I can be sure to buy from them.
Here you go!
Sorry guys, Pfizer is woke too.
I mean, that was obvious to anybody paying attention in 2021.
There’s a link at the bottom labeled, “Our Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Program”, and it was exactly what I expected.
It’s crazy that Tesla is on the front page of here, but when I type in Tesla, there are no results. So broke of a website.
Boeing is also woke according to them lol. I know someone who interned at boeing. They made him watch a mandatory anti-racism video where they weirdly focused on racism against white people.
Boeing is the opposite of woke.
Do you have a portrait of Hitler hanging above your bed? No? Woke!
A hail a day keeps the woke away
Mandatory training always covers things some idiot once did, and now everyone has to suffer through dumb videos.
Rofl reminds me of an acquaintance saying how anyone can be discriminated against (true), “like me,” they went on, “for being tall and blonde” (that’s not really…)
Lol, I don’t recognise a single brand from the “woke free” list
Their DEI link is to Rick Astley. (bottom of the page) Hardee har motherfuckers
They handily provide a link that ONLY shows you the woke brands - I will be moving as many of my purchases as possible to those brands. Thanks buywokefree.com!
This has to be an Elwood’s Organic Dog Meat situation, right? Surely they’re making fun of the kind of people who would look for a website to tell them what brands are woke
The Rickroll at the DEI link does make me wonder if I’m being too credulous.
Goldman Sachs? Pfizer? These people are so braindead
I will be moving as many of my purchases as possible to those brands.
Time to give Jeff Bezos all my money to own the republicans.
Thanks, finally we can easily avoid “woke free” companies
“Liberate yourself from the corporate wokehold.”
Thank you. I haven’t even looked up any companies yet and it’s already hilarious!
They’re turning the bombs gay.
The bombs change your pronouns to “was/collateral damage” 🥰
was/were
Bombs have been gay since the 90s: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_bomb
I heard they’re developing a bomb that makes people gay.
Don’t need bombs for that
Well, they did look into it.
I would say that would solve a lot of problems, but there are a lot of closeted self-hating conservatives.
Their methodology is basically this :
- Find news articles about the company
- If it’s a positive article about the company’s environmental work, inclusion statements or supports any Biden policies then BAM woke.
- If it’s an article about the company donations to election denying politicians, about the company being accused of racism or about Republican donations then it gets stamped non woke.
- Average the results and profit!
I’m not sure how many articles they “find” or how they decide which ones to include but this website is as hilarious as it is sad. Imagine being so afraid of the word “woke” that you feel the need curate a list of companies to avoid.
I sort of want every company imaginable to be marked as “extremely woke”. Get the alt right out of the marketplace. Let them create secondary and underground stores.
My family DIED because of how woke they were being >:(
Did you have a nice… wake for them?
A website dedicated to telling you whether it’s woke or not. From a marketing perspective, that’s bloody brilliant.
(From any other perspective it’s a bloody shame.)
