  I think it is definitely the case that, wherever they go, they want to be noticed.

  Suddenly, they don't like it anymore..?!

    One big reason that companies started taking "moral stances" is that they had studies that showed that 72% of Millennials are more likely to buy from a company that takes them and shares them with customers.

    These sort of people are the people who asked for this, specifically. They wanted companies to be expressing moral stances instead of just serving pizza. The rest of us are trying to beg them not to do that, but they insisted and now they complain that they have to care about the moral stances of companies serving them pizza.

      This is a great point.

      And this is also how whole systems based around this sort of thing begin to fall.

      It's just not sustainable to have even financial institutions to begin polarizing the country from the top down.

        There's two choices for the conservatives when they take overwhelming power soon: they can choose to take these forbidden powers and use them for themselves making things worse, or they can try to stop the practice because it is going to end civilization if we keep allowing it.
