According to studies, businesses, educational institutions, theme parks, and sporting organizations that embraced “woke” values and implemented practices promoting diversity, equality, and inclusiveness have experienced a decline in revenue due to alienating a significant number of consumers.
Impact on Woke Businesses
Terry Jones, a researcher for the news and commentary website Issues & Insights, explains that the most recent Issues & Answers/TIPP Poll supports this trend. The poll shows that a majority of Americans reject such political action rather than support it.
Jones adds:
“Recently, organizations as diverse as Anheuser-Busch, Disney, Target, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and other significant institutions have experienced both reputational and financial harm by pushing contentious social and cultural issues on consumers, supporters, and pupils.”
Overall, only 17% of Americans supported the increasing trend towards corporate social involvement, while 46% disapproved. However, a significant portion (29%) expressed indifference, according to Jones.
