Robby Starbuck: Walmart Will End or Modify Some DEI/Woke/Transinsanity Policies (While Doubling Down on Others)

This isn't the win that Starbuck suggests it is, but it is moving things in the right direction.

It could be that corporations are going to suddenly revert back to (partial) sanity. Not only is the public extremely hostile to these policies -- and that can no longer be denied, as America elected a president who vows an end to DEI/CRT/trannies in the military -- but also, these policies require the government to provide cover for them.

These policies are illegal and discriminatory on their face. The only way a corporation can implement them and not be bankrupted is by having the political establishment running cover for them.

That cover is now gone.

But I don't want to take away anything from Robby Starbuck, either. He keeps telling these woke corporations that he's preparing to make them infamous, and they keep backing down.

Somewhat. As you'll see, this is mixed bag, and the "commitments" Walmart makes are mostly of the "review" or "evaluate" or Endeavor to Persevere kind.

MASSIVE news: Walmart is ending their woke policies. I can now exclusively tell you what's changing and how it happened.

Last week I told execs at @Walmart that I was doing a story on wokeness there. Instead we had productive conversations to find solutions.

Below are the changes Walmart committed to. I have to give their executives major credit because this will send shockwaves throughout corporate America. This is the biggest win yet for our movement to end wokeness in corporate America.

Here are the changes Walmart committed to:

* Surveys: Walmart will no longer participate in the HRC's woke Corporate Equality Index.

This is a bigger move than it seems. The HRC is the main enforcer of gay/trans insanity in corporations. By refusing to participate in their "index" -- which is a checklist of woke policies corporations must implement to get their approval -- Walmart is taking away power and credibility from the HRC, and also working to normalize non-compliance with their lunatic demands.

* Products: Monitor the Walmart marketplace to identify and remove inappropriate sexual and / or transgender products marketed to children.

* Funding of Grants: Review all funding of Pride, and other events, to avoid funding inappropriate sexualized content targeting kids.

"Review" is a weasel word. Both of these "commitments" are very weaselly.

* Equity: We will not extend the Racial Equity Center which was established in 2020 as a special five-year initiative.

* Supplier Diversity: We will evaluate supplier diversity programs and ensure they do not provide preferential treatment and benefits to suppliers based on diversity. We don't have quotas and won't going forward. Financing eligibility will no longer be predicated on providing certain demographic data.

"Evaluate" is another weasel word, but at least they say they won't have quotas going forward.

* LatinX: Walmart will no longer use the term in official communications.

This is nothing. This is the one thing the Woke Left has agreed they will stop doing. It's the one concession they're willing to make. And actually, they agreed that "LatinX" was a big problem for them back in 2021.

* Trainings: Walmart will discontinue racial equity training through the Racial Equity Institute.

Good. Starve the Woke Grifter Racists of corporate money.

* DEI: Walmart will discontinue the use of DEI as a term while ensuring a respectful and supportive environment. Our focus is on Belonging for ALL associates and customers.

This is less than nothing. They're only agreeing to stop using DEI as a term. They will not stop DEI. They'll just call it Heightened Inclusiveness and Aggressive Belongingness or whatever.

Remember, Walmart is the #1 employer in America with over 1.6 Million Employees and they have a market cap of nearly $800B. This won't just have a massive effect for their employees who will have a neutral workplace without feeling that divisive issues are being injected but it will also extend to their many suppliers.

We've now changed policy at companies worth over $2 Trillion dollars, with many millions of employees who have better workplace environments as a result. I'm happy to have secured these changes before Christmas when shoppers have very few large retail brands they can spend money with who aren't pushing woke policies. Companies like Amazon and Target should be very nervous that their top competitor dropped woke policies first. I think Target specifically will suffer serious sales problems as a result and Walmart will benefit.

Our campaigns are now so effective that we're getting the biggest companies on earth to change their policies without me even posting a story outlining their woke policies. Companies can clearly see that America wants normalcy back. The era of wokeness is dying right in front of our eyes. The landscape of corporate America is quickly shifting to sanity and neutrality. We are now the trend, not the anomaly.

We are winning and one by one we WILL bring sanity back to corporate America.

So far you've helped me change corporate policy at Tractor Supply, John Deere, Harley Davidson, Polaris, Indian Motorcycle, Lowe's, Ford, Coors, Stanley Black & Decker, Jack Daniels, DeWalt tools, Craftsman, Caterpillar, Boeing, Toyota and now WALMART! We are a force to be reckoned with and we won't stop until wokeness is extinct.

Share to make sure everyone knows this is happening so that we keep this movement growing. Also, feel free to download this video and spread on all platforms.

They won't learn until we boycott them and begin signing up racially-disfavored employees into class action lawsuits. The corporate class is captured by the far left, and are enemies of liberty, justice, and prosperity.
