They can say they're sorry all they want after the fact, but it doesn't change the fact what so ever. Salvation Army, Disney, several others... and now this...

Once you go woke, your image is tarnished... even if you apologize afterwards... your reputation has been damaged. And a simple apology is no where near enough!!!

It’s so easy. All they have to do is ignore the pressure and no tinge as they have. They are in business to deliver a product or service. Stick to business.

Either a majority of decision makers believe in it or they pick the side least likely to cost them money or reputation.  They picked wrong.

Regardless of why they made the decision... they made it... and it was not in the best interest of their company... and now they're paying for it... regardless of reason.

And restoring customer confidence in their decision is going to be a hard battle going forward as they've scarred their own selves quite badly.

It depends how much people like the product. Disney will eventually survive because it’s Disney. People love them in spite of everything.

Not for the next 4 ~ 6 months at least.

Not until a recession ends or prices drop. Who wants to spend $500 for a family day at Disneyland.  2 adults, 2 kids = too much money.

New Calvin Klein Ad Features ‘Pregnant Man’

Published May 14, 2022 at 2:00pm

Calvin Klein featured a ‘pregnant man’ to celebrate Mother’s Day.
 
“Today, in support of women and mothers all over the world, we’re spotlighting the realities of new families,” Calvin Klein wrote on Instagram.
 
“Erika Fernandes and Roberto Bete are expecting parents from Brazil. Roberto is due to give birth to his and Erika’s son Noah any day now,” the caption said.
 
“We can reproduce biologically or from the heart…our place is to love and be loved,” the couple says in the ad.
 
Calvin Klein received backlash over its transgender ‘pregnant man’ ad campaign so they removed all ‘intolerant’ commentary.
 
“We embrace this platform as an inclusive and respectful environment for individualism and self-expression,” the statement read. “At Calvin Klein, we tolerate everything except intolerance — any intolerant commentary will be removed, and any accounts issuing hateful statements may be blocked.”
