Walmart backs BLM

Rick, while you’re over at Walmart.com check out all the Blue Lives Matter merchandise.
I don’t know if it’s true or not but it looks like they’re just in the business of selling stuff.
I’m deeply skeptical of people like that.

Come on David, this is pretty general stuff. what are you are really trying to say? I don't believe for one minute these massive corporations just sell stuff.

They sell that stuff too, no question about it.
They also sell Blue Lives Matter.
One stop shopping no matter who you are.
Unfettered mercenary capitalism right there.
Maybe there should be a law against it.

Walmart is contributing corporate efforts and corporate cash to promote racial equity.

https://corporate.walmart.com/newsroom/2020/06/05/making-a-difference-in-racial-equity

Pandering to the masses for corporate profit.
The first paragraph proves it.
"In our 50-plus years as a company, it rings true more each year that the world’s challenges are our challenges. The global health crisis has tested all of us in recent months, and the racial violence in the U.S. – in particular, the murder of George Floyd – is tragic, painful and unacceptable."
Floyd was a felon under the influence of drugs, screaming I can't breathe while no knee was on his neck while in restraints in the back of the cruiser.
Did he deserve to die? It appears he died by his own choice to use drugs.
I see zero reason to admire walmart for this statement and their attempt to "promote racial equality" is strictly pandering. FUK walmart.
Has anybody ever seen a person of any color being turned away from shopping at walmart? Step up if you have.........What? Nobody?
How is this POS retailer that has driven small businesses into the ground going to be a leader in "promoting racial equality"?
They just want your bucks and don't have any qualms about pandering to get them.

Whatever you say Stich.

He's not wrong.

Maybe Facebook isn’t their highest priority on Sunday, or maybe the people who maintain the page are observing the Sabath. Don’t give up Rick. Call them on the phone and talk to a flack catcher.

Except of course for the before mentioned replies to other people in the thread I started asking about it.
