Deep insight? It was completely obvious that it was performative. Why would huge companies like suddently care about black people or women if it was not to seek popular approval and get closer to power?

Minimization of regulatory risk and lawsuits. Compliance was _always_ about that - if leadership truly valued human dignity you’d see Gaza get a few orders of magnitude as much attention as BLM in corporate America, rather than a few orders of magnitude less.

You're conflating Gaza with Hamas. The vast majority of both Gaza and BLM have taken zero hostages and done zero raping.

The vast majority of Nazis rounded up zero Jews and killed no one.

And as a result, we didn’t put most of Germany to death. We fed them, helped rebuild, and they’re now a close ally.

Glad we're not putting most of Gaza to death either. Maybe after the dust settles, we'll feed, help rebuild, and they'll be a close ally.
