Given that giant corps like Disney, etc. keep doubling down on this ideology even when it costs them millions, I think it's clear these companies are legitimately infiltrated by True Believers (regardless of whatever the reason was for putting them into positions of power/creating new departments and initiatives for them in the first place).

Calling them Woke is accurate, the entire thing is about signaling/supporting the "right thing," regardless of the motivation.

And regardless if we're talking about individuals or corps, it's usually for selfish reasons.

You are a sleepy sheep. Fighting against the reality of discrimination and hiding in your own fantasy world. Being 'Woke' means believing that there is injustice in our society whether it be towards women, LGBTQ+, or ethnicities other than white.

Corporations pandering with rainbows, and support of the LGBTQ+ community is great regardless of intention because it continues to make people like you upset and uncomfortable. The more you're uncomfortable the more you'll realize this shit isn't going anywhere, the LGBTQ+ community isn't going anywhere.
