Continuing our safari tour of leopards eating faces, let's take a quick look at how collaborating with the fascist Trump regime and its white nationalist agenda has worked out for multinational corporations.

This 10 minute video by Mike Figueredo of The Humanist Report looks at a pretty broad swathe of the ways collaborating with fascism and the Trump regime is harming some of the largest corporations on Earth, including a little bit about the effect of tariffs on their bottom lines. Most of this discussion however is right in our wheelhouse; including segments about Target putting itself in a catch-22 by capitulating to fascist outrage and openly embracing Trump's war on "woke" despite depending on a variety of marginalized communities to generate profit, and McDonald's catching a double whammy after their shameless support for both Trump and the Israeli army is tanking their bottom line.

The overarching message here is both that boycott strategies work, and Trump returning to office does not mean a large percentage of American consumers want the companies they purchase things from to become fascist collaborating ideological outposts for Trumpism. Given that these corporations were warned that this was so while they were doing all this winger signaling and abandoning the people who actually buy their goods and services, I don't imagine anyone watching Mike's presentation is going to be all that broke up about learning these folks fucked around and found out.

The only thing I'd really add here that Figueredo only alludes to is the reality that none of the consequences these corporations are facing were difficult to predict, which means companies like Target, Walmart, McDonald's, Starbucks, and more choose to do this of their own volition. They were hoping to trade the customers who paid their fat bonuses every year, for a smaller, pro-Trump, pro-genocide, right wing customer base because an election gave them an excuse to do so. As such not only do I not care about their demise, I'm happy to actively hope for it. Collaborators get the wall mate; good luck with your new fundie nazi right wing podcaster customers who I'm sure will help you keep the lights on when Trump crashes the global economy again soon.

The Humanist Report: Corporations Who Pandered to Trump Cry HARD About Declining Profits From Boycotts

"Multinational corporations apparently jumped the gun by trying to appease Donald Trump given how severe consumer backlash has been. To make matters worse, corporations like Target, Walmart, and Home Depot are warning investors about additional boycotts to come. However, consumer backlash isn’t the only thing they have to worry about because declining consumer confidence (due to Trump’s tariffs) and the United States’ deteriorating reputation on the global stage is also costing them greatly. In this video we’ll discuss the crises greedy corporations are facing."
