There are indications that wokeism has begun to retreat across a broad front.
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investing, one of the evils of our time, seeks to force publicly-traded companies to take left-wing policy positions. The number one force behind ESG has been BlackRock, Inc., the world’s largest asset manager with $10 trillion under management. Now, in a significant u-turn, BlackRock will vote against green activism.
“…an “anti-woke” investment fund that will urge companies to focus on making money rather than championing political causes”.
You don’t say! A company making money - what a brilliant concept!! I guess it took a genius to figure that out…
“Storm over banker’s anti-climate change tirade: HSBC faces calls to sack financier over speech saying ‘who cares if Miami is underwater’ and ‘nutjobs are always warning about end of world’”
Such a glaring example of the hypocrisy of the left, who pretended to champion the cause of “free speech” back in the 60’s to advance their totalitarian agenda.
I don’t think they have swallowed it at all, I think it was always a tool of control - both political and financial control. The plot does appear to be coming unstuck to some extent though, as we’re seeing Fink appears to be somewhat rolling back on the ESG front.
It’s still utter insanity. What’s the point of getting financial control, or profiting off of, a scam that is driving the entire world into oblivion?
