Walmart to phase out the term DEI and drop transgender items online

[pornmafia]

I guess they saw the light from all the backlash after Target, Bud Light and jaguar



""Like many companies all across the United States, we've been on a journey and we continue to be on a journey. And what we're trying to do is to ensure that every customer, every associate feels welcome here to shop. And to feel like they belong," Furner said in response to questions about the DEI policy decision in an exclusive interview Tuesday with "CBS Mornings."

The changes, confirmed by Walmart on Monday after Wall Street Journal earlier reported on them, represent the end of a five-year commitment for an equity racial center set up after the police killing of George Floyd, as well as the retailer's decision to phase out the term DEI. Walmart will also no longer give priority treatment to suppliers based on race or gender diversity and will halt sellers from listing some transgender-related or themed items on the website."

Smart move you are a business to make profits not preach others your social values or agenda. Respect everyone treat then equally and fairly without making it piss off others. I have not believed in the man in the sky since I was around 15 or 16 years old, I stlil wish people who celebrate a merry Christmas and happy Hanukkah, not because I believe in it, because I believe you should respect the choices others have not push your opinion on them.

Heck you come to my home I still get excited do the whole Christmas tree, decorate the home and Christmas day dinner. I really enjoy it too.

Peace

What do you think made them make this change now, any chance the backlash from the latest ad campaign by jaguar cars have anything to do with it?

No idea but I will hazard a guess someone or some people in management realized they were on a course of self destruction and put the woke go broke brakes on.

When you go too far in any direction you can end up hurting your own agenda.

After Jaguar released their ad I am not surprised.

It came too soon after they might have been working on it for longer.

They smartened up in time and avoided another Target,Bud Light moment.

About time common sense prevailed in corporations. Sell your goods stop playing at social engineering.
