    I disagree. I think these people mistake having an audience for an indication that they have something to say, or that anyone is listening
    The sad thing is that there are a sizeable number of folks out there who ARE listening to them and giving them credence simply because they're famous or rich.

    Just can not figure how these silly woman think they hold sway over so many.
    Wake up people. Live “Your” life and let these selfie important nimrods fade away.

    Could somebody direct me to Dr Kevin Roberts support for his comment, as a "policy mapping guy" and a "fifth generation educator" where he said "we are as so many people have said including abraham lincoln we are the last best hope for the world"?

    I would like to see where lincoln made that statement.

    How does he want to "inculcate" that into "our" kids?

    I would also like to understand his comments regarding reading "portions" of the Declaration of Independence on Independence Day without "white washing it".

    Well hell, if you're only going to read "portions" aren't you already watering it down?

    What the **** ?

    Perhaps I am wrong, but seems like a putz.

    Guess they should just rename themselves "Rage Against the Constitution" then and go become citizens of Venezuela or somewhere socialist like that.
    Arent they a little old to be so rage-y and pie in the sky?
    Or are they afraid the'll get stuck with their groupie's babies?

    Netflix went from $700.99 a share to $170.03 in the last 52 weeks.
    Now,they are looking to put in an add tier to try and recover lost subscribers.

    "Netflix, which was historically against an ad tier, is now looking to introduce ads to its service for the first time after posting a significant subscriber loss in the first quarter."

    Can't help but notice that there is no reference as to why or how this financial slide began to a seemingly thriving company?

    Are they similar to NASCAR, in they they just keep doubling down on the woke-ness vs addressing that their customers bailed because of it?

    I suspect they are coming down from stupid increases during lockdowns. I don mind giving cosumers choices, even ones I don’t want…

    Subscribers have been declining since "Cuties" world wide. They have doubled and tripled down on wokeness until the last few months. The have started to clean house though.

    It will be interesting to see what is uncovered in the coming days. What was he hiding/distraught over? What will be found?

    I cant imagine him jumping just because the company is tanking. Guys like him still end up with golden parachutes and go on to other jobs.

    As to them tanking, I agree its probably not due to conservative backlash/boycotts. But I am sure that is part of it. Probably another casualty of ecommerce + Covid + inflation.

    It is more like Hostess. A company that was profitable,then loaded with debt and destroyed.
    He had used share buybacks based on loans at a set share price(ie artificially propping up the share price),when the share price dropped below that value margin calls happened and the hundreds of millions Bed bath and beyond had in cash evaporated in an instant. It then could not keep making the payments on the loans it had used to prop up the share price or any other debts it had.
    Debtors are of course lined up in court already.
