All I can say is people evidently either love Costco or they appreciate a DEI supporting company....maybe both! 😉😊

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Can't even start to figure out how a country with history like USA, and demographics like USA would even consider backing away from diversity training, etc.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social I'd love to know just how much value these shareholders think that diversity is costing them, and what sort of hard evidence they have that isn't based in racist suppositions.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Whoa! Fantastic news.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social this renews my commitment to #costco as a brand.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social “…also we are making an absolute shit-ton of money selling about a quarter of the products to people that pay us money to shop here…we literally sell out of actual gold bars…go sit back down and don’t rock the boat.”

@Bellison22@mastodon.social We're Costco guys, of course we like representation and inclusivity.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social At the risk of throwing gasoline onto a fire: It's not hard to imagine volk who are focused on short-term profit and tacit supporters of [fascist political organization] saying the exact opposite of that.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Thank you for this!

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Yep. When I look at a board of directors & don't see a mix of people that reflects US population, I know they can't understand the broader market's needs. Cold-blooded financial sense.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social .... need to know more. Will they try to replace the Board at the next election? Should we start a movement now to rally smaller shareholders against assigning their proxy votes to anti-DEI shareholders?

@Bellison22@mastodon.social do you have a link? I’d love to see the whole thing.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Shareholders: stop valuing your workers and treating them fairly Costco:

@Bellison22@mastodon.social I just drove to Billings (2 hrs) to make a Costco run. They are awesome; and the fact they haven’t raised the price of their hotdog lunch in 20+ years isn’t a bad thing either.
-
@WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online 2024-12-26 23:21
@Bellison22@mastodon.social And that’s saying something, since a Costco Board of Directors is at least 15 times the size of the usual BOD.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Costco based as always

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Good for Costco. Which I need to brave tomorrow. Wish me luck.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Just today, earlier, I kept thinking "I SEE you Corporations who backed down to MAGA, I SEE you News Media who backed down to MAGA, I SEE you GOP legislators who backed down to MAGA, I SEE you University Presidents who backed down to MAGA..." My list went on an on. And I stopped when I got to "AND I WON'T FORGET".

@kevinrns@mstdn.social 2024-12-27 01:32
@Bellison22@mastodon.social And Costco pays well too.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social this is your friendly reminder that being against DEI is mask off racist. This should not be an issue in the first place and is actively killing the image America has been trying to foster for generations

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Costco also knows that; IF they kowtowed to MAGA and "activist investors/shareholders", loyal customers will take their $ elsewhere. Especially customers of color.
