    Now I’m getting solidarity emails from them all.

    They’re all against racism and police brutality, apparently.

        I got one from work from our company president. Apparently he's saddened by the recent events, and he believes now is not a time to act, but to listen. And to acknowledge the frustrations many are feeling right now. Also, he too is listening, and learning, and is eager to find a way to meaningfully engage with the challenges ahead.

        Total fucking wanker.

        Please love yourself.

          Almost on the same day most CEOs of corporations, NFPs, academic etc... sent out a similar message to all their employees. It’s as if a memo went out with talking points to frantically get the note out. Timing and message is too close for this to be a coincidence. Granted it’s good optics but the Simultaneous. virtue signaling almost feels like a check the box.

            My favorite so far was “[Town name] Public Library Addresses Systemic Racism”

            The was literally the subject line of an email today.

              Unless it’s against the Irish, right? I mean nobody likes those soulless leprechauns.

                      The presidents of the college I attended and the high school I attended both are unhappy with the riots.

                      They both sent me email today letting me know this.

                      Neither likes racism.

                      I believe this is good.

                          These businesses (and friends of mine on social media)...I’m glad they’re against racial injustice. Were they not before?
