  2. True. And whenever they are upset about something, it is because they want to distract you from something else that is much more important.

  4. The woke distraction may be one of the biggest. I have a strong suspicion that e.g. Disney has been hired to stoke the "culture wars", by making over-the-top ultra "woke" movies that are openly hostile to white males and "straight" relationships. Because the push to make these movies comes from the top, the board of directors, which is under the control of two huge financial corporations. I believe they purposefully stoke the "culture wars" to cause people to vote conservative (Republican), so these corporations can get away with paying very little in taxes and no oversight. It is clear that these movies are hurting Disney profits, so normal shareholders would have changed course about two years ago. It seems Disney shareholders think stoking the culture wars is so important it doesn't matter if it loses them money. I might believe that these companies are simply "progressive". But they message they proclaim is not progressive, it is aggressive to the extent that it is hurting the progressive movement. That is why I believe their goal is not to help progressives, but the opposite. That is the effect their efforts are having, and as they double down on their course (as they are currently doing), that seems to be the effect they want.
