One of the things you can always count on is that the left never learns from its mistakes. Thus we see that they are using any tool they can to disrupt and undermine the election results of Donald Trump. Now if this were to remain within the bounds of the machinery of politics that would not be such a problem. We expect that in a democratic system we are going to have debates over policy and philosophy.
But the left never knows when to stop and invariably they push too far. Since so many corporate boards are now dominated, or at least influenced by the leftists in their midst, it now comes to pass that those leftists are using those businesses to push their political agenda. The latest example of this being Kellogg’s.
Kellogg’s has loudly and publicly announced that they will no longer be providing ads to conservative websites such as Breitbart. Typical of leftists is their desire to force others to their will rather than engage in debate. Ace of Spades sounds the call for conservatives to fight fire with fire and respond with a boycott of their own.
If you want to change corporate behavior, you have to change the incentives as far as picking sides in the culture war.
You have to stop giving corporations a free pass to hurt you merely because they’ve added up the plusses and minuses and the math says It’s a smart business play to treat you like garbage.
You have to start using the same tactics and making the same demands that the left does.
Well, not the same demands — what we’d really like is for corporations to declare themselves neutral in these things like Nissan has.
Not to make them partisans of the right. Just to keep the fuck out of it.
But we should use the same tactic — if you defy us, we will punish you economically.
We will change the incentive scheme: It will no longer the case that you can give in to every leftist demand without negative consequence.
We will start imposing consequences on you for doing so.
The left has demanded Kellogg’s stop advertising on Breitbart, and Kellogg’s has eagerly joined the leftist army.
How long are we going to play this game where we accept that left can organize boycotts against corporations to forcibly (or even not-so-forcibly) enlist them in the leftist army in the Culture War, but we are to act “principled” and do nothing as the left continues organizing every institution, media group, and corporation as bases of operation to destroy us?
Kellogg’s wants to be a part of their army — fine. They are now Enemies and to be treated as such.
