This may happen in some jobs, but it seems like most large corporations have the opposite problem. The HR departments are being taken over by far left extremists. Diversity hiring is just the tip of the iceburg. They are forcing reeducation classes to indoctrinate as many people as possible with propaganda that is completely irrelevant to the position. They are putting out propaganda posters, staging "events", and encouraging political activism against the company.

It is destroying these companies.

Thank Blackrock and their ESG initiatives for that. Once they get a majority position on the board, they start pushing this crap. I think the object IS to destroy these companies. Maybe they want the stock price to tank so they can buy more? I dunno, it doesn't make sense.

I don't think ESG is a major vector for this compared to the HR blitz. They got control of the certification system and made it so most of the pool of candidates for HR positions are trained antagonists. I haven't seen anything in the way of evidence for why they are doing this, but I suspect they target the competition while insulating their own investments.

Vanguard has recently announced that they are abandoning the ESG strategy. I consuder vanguard and blackrock to be owned by the same group.

The thing is, once the shareholders want to push stuff, the CEO and the C suite can order HR management to hire X, Y and Z. Remember the golden rule: Those who own the gold make the rules.

Also about Vanguard and all news stories: you don't know what's true and what they're really going to do. Believe nothing.

It's not that simple. These are trained antagonists who know how to use spcific language to blackmail the companies into doing a lot of things against their will. The courts have already established precedent in ruling on behalf of the antagonists. The HR plants are not just ideological morons, they are agents of a well organized, rugged, highly specialized, well researched and competent strategy. That strategy includes conditioning everyone to avoid confronting woke actions out of fear and confusion. It includes establishing a culture where injustice framed in the language of "inclusion and diversity" is allowed. It is very difficult to unfuck a company from the woke agenda.

So, governments are literally dictating what the company does, and who they hire? Then why does Walmart have a poor ESG rating as a company?

Your words, not mine. You obviously chose those words because they are extreme and you can use that to claim it's not true because the government does not hand pick employees. But afirmative action laws exist and they do constitute the government "dictating" whom you are hiring.

There are a lot of laws like that which can be wielded like weapons by bad actors. Not to mention economic attacks using cancel culture, or other assets like sanctions by banks, investors, and suppliers controlled by the adversarial party.

Absolutely. But ESG is another Trojan horse from the inside to enforce woke ideology, and it's obvious. That's not coming from government directly as far as we know, but I'm sure the DNC is all over it, and by virtue of that, the federal government and blue states.

So if anything, it's a proxy for the DNC.

Even so HR still need to do their job and they are the ones who are going to have to deal with these crazies when the shit goes down.

Likely a lot of the woke in HR departments will just become Highlander type queen bees clearing out the other special snowflakes so they can be the only one.

One need only look as far as Disney.
