Woke corporations that habitually virtue signal to gain the left’s approval are readily profiting off of the 2022 winter Olympics even though the games’ host communist China has a running list of human rights abuses.
A number of U.S. companies that claim to care about human rights are slated to be official partners with the International Olympic Committee for the 2022 Winter Games in Beijing. The corporations boycotted Georgia over its election laws, backed Black Lives Matter, and often speak out in favor of “oppressed” groups, such as through pro-LGBT statements, but will not penalize communist China for its human rights abuses.
Communist China’s role in hosting the 2022 games is already controversial due to the regime’s ongoing practice of abusing its power to oppress its citizens. While President Joe Biden promised a diplomatic boycott of the Olympics in protest of the CCP’s ongoing genocide against the Uyghurs, among other human rights violations, it’s clear that U.S.-controlled companies have no problems fraternizing with authoritarian enemies. Already, the CCP is using the influence it was awarded by the International Olympic Committee to spy on , record, and even censor people ahead of the fast-approaching games.
Coca-Cola, the “longest-standing partner of the Olympic Movement” and the world’s most polluting brand in 2019 , often brags that it is an environmentally conscious company with a social justice streak. It even has a human rights division that regularly releases statements supporting social movements, often leftist-led, in the United States.
When it comes to condemning China for committing genocide against the Uyghurs, a minority religious group in the Xinjiang province, Coca-Cola is silent.
“We do not make decisions on these host locations. We support and follow the athletes wherever they compete,” Paul Lalli, Coca-Cola’s global vice president for human rights, said last summer.
Coca-Cola’s unwillingness to denounce communist China does […]
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
