Get Woke, Go Broke: Boy Scouts "On Verge of Bankruptcy" After Insane Decision to Allow Female Scouts
I have nothing against girls -- seriously. They smell nice and I like it when they wore skirts and dresses.
But the name on the sign is "BOY SCOUTS." The idea, which I know is #ToxicMasculinity, is that boys have interests and needs, really -- men like playing with gadgets and tools and stuff, trying to figure it out without instructions, because, like cats, they like performing the tasks their brains are hardwired to enjoy performing, in this case mechanical reasoning -- and that if they wanted to learn stuff in the company of girls they could just... go to school.
Anyway, great move, Boy Scouts executives. Your need to virtue signal on Twitter has bankrupted another company. Make sure to give yourselves all huge bonuses on your way out the door.
The Boy Scouts of America is considering declaring bankruptcy, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
The Wednesday report comes in the wake of sinking membership and multiple controversies surrounding the 108-year-old organization, including sex abuse allegations and its controversial decision to change its program name from Boy Scouts to Scouts BSA and allow girls into that program.
Chicago law firm Sidley Austin has reportedly been hired to assist in what would be a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing.
As the organization has made decisions deemed to be more inclusive, such as allowing openly gay scouts in 2013 and scoutmasters in 2015 as well as the 2018 decision to allow girls, membership has continued to decline sharply, from over 4 million members at its peak to a claimed 2.3 million members at present.
The bizarre thing is: This changes nothing. The next corporation looking to virtue signal will still pursue a WOKE/BROKE strategy. They all think that, as with socialism, it just hasn't been implemented correctly just yet.
So a 100+ year institution is now dead.
Swell.
I really think we have to stop looking at the corporate "leadership" class as Our Finest Republicans and start seeing them for what they are: Rich Democrats.
