Nah, we're not thinking in terms of race with that accusation, we're

But race doesn't exist. Or does it? The liberals are fine with giving a
group of people special privileges based on race.

 
The Woke seem confused on that issue. Of course the Woke aren't having a
very good time right now, so they may a little constipated. Ford, McDonald's
and Walmart are the latest to drop (or curtail) the DEI BS.

I was just talking about Ford with my wife yesterday. If I remember
correctly, they were the _only_ American automotive company strong
enough in 2008 not to require a bailout from the government. Since then,
they have jumped on the electric vehicle train which has cost them a
fortune since nobody wants those cars, at least not from them. Even
worse, their F-150 has just gotten a recall affecting several hundred
thousand vehicle, exacerbating the damage. I imagine that they'll be
requiring government assistance very soon.

They *were* the strongest... until they bought into the EV crap. Hopefully
they'll back out of that stupidity. How big is the "carbon footprint" that
is required to provide the electricity that these "climate conscience" cars
require? And what kid of "carbon footprint" cost is there in the batteries?
— (and they wear out in a few years and are too expensive to replace so the
car usually ends up in the junk yard). This "green products" push is just
another scam. Not to mention that most of the EV vehicles are about
worthless if you need to drive more than 120 miles.
