This makes it sound like woke culture by itself isn't the source of all these grievances...corporate elites coopting it for purpose is. And the problem with that is: how does it make woke culture different than literally anything else on earth?The “woke” activists have immense power and influence because the “woke” activists are the powerful corporations. They are meaning to create a culture that levels their competition and hide their massive wealth privilege.
...and you say...It's just fucking corporations reacting to a major cultural change event in the silliest, most clueless way possible.
...we are crediting these cancellations to the same group of people.The elites aren't reacting to woke mob bullying or attempting to profit off of organically changing culture. They are instigating the cultural shift themselves, in a way that benefits them.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/ob ... story.htmlTheodor Geisel’s then-wife, children’s author Helen Palmer, committed suicide in 1967. The next year, Audrey Dimond married Geisel, and her ex-husband raised their two daughters.
“They wouldn’t have been happy with Ted, and Ted wouldn’t have been happy with them. He’s the man who said of children, ‘You have ’em and I’ll entertain ’em,’ ” she told the New York Times in 2000.
“Ted’s a hard man to break down, but this is who he was,” she added. “He lived his whole life without children and he was very happy without children. I’ve never been very maternal. There were too many other things I wanted to do. My life with him was what I wanted my life to be.”
Survivors include her daughters, Leagrey Dimond and Lark Grey Dimond-Cates.
