Insane how quickly the racist regression is happening in this country. Decades of progress being undone in weeks, without even any laws having to be passed. Just sheer intimidation from Trump and the right, and sheer cowardice from the corporations.

I am pissed, especially about renaming the Gulf. Does anyone know of a GPS app besides google? I tried a couple and both needed google maps to function.
I agree! They lie! Tell them thousands of times
They the “other” any other is getting special treatment? They are Less qualified and get your Job!
Lies! Air Traffic tajes 18-36 months to pass all the Tests! Train on systems. Then watch certified Air Traffic controller.
Then you do some then!
You get it no lower scores etc!
A Diverse group works better and is happier in their work!
Private Companies with DEI make more Profits! Proven facts! Also happier workforce.
The lies in courts will fail! Numbers do not Lie!
Pam should be Disbarred!
They didn't even have to intimidate that hard for Google to completely cave.
Google will be the new SS, turning us all in for now compliance. I did not see that coming.
Insane. But where is the outrage? Laws are being ignored by trump and musk and not enforced. This is not only chaos but it anarchy. We are watching the fall of America. Infuriating!!!
The judges,lawyers or the law will not stop them. The laws he is breaking have not been enforced. This started with subpoenas being ignored with no real consequence. No one has enforced any illegal act that they have transgressed. The law is irrelevant to them. It is anarchy.
America has always been racist AF. The only difference now is that it's out in the open with zero repercussions. There is an open war now against black Africans to make them all pay for South Africa ending de jure white supremacy, a movement led by KKKetamineFuror Sissy SpaceX.
Maga bullies will enslave EVERYONE that isn't rich, straight, white, Christian (the cherry-picking Bible quoting kind) male. The opposite of love isn't hate, it's apathy. To beat this bully we must stand up to them. We cannot let them win or we will live in a Handmaiden/Orwellian nightmare.
Imagine what trump could do about obliging tech companies to share details of hate, misogyny, racism and child abuse to enforcement and justice... I wonder why he doesn't 🤔
Wow, Google and most of corporate America have proven themselves to be cowards of the highest order. Seems like they are only interested in making money. Who knew?
WHAT OTHER RECOURSE DO WE HAVE NOW OTHER THAN A JUNTA GOVT TO JAIL TRUMP AND HIS CABINET OF TRAITORS? WHAT OTHER CHOICE DO WE HAVE? IN THIS CASE A WRONG WILL MAKE A RIGHT. HISTORY WILL FORGIVE US FOR THIS, BUT AT THIS POINT IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY IN ORDER TO TAKE BACK OUR GOVT FROM FASCISTS!!!!!
America and Americans have plenty of racism to go around, only now they can let it show.
Musk enjoys his pernicious virtual lynchings, next they will construct a gallows on the white house lawn......for tic tok natch
Here's this asshole from Google Sundar Pichai hanging off dangerous Nazi saluting car salesboy Musk & sucking up to a rapist Trump who has at least 26 women publicly accusing him of rape, kissing, groping without consent; looking under women's skirts; & walking in on naked teen pageant contestants
The feckless opposition in Washington is showing us all why every last one of them needs to be primaried and removed. Absolute cowardice and incompetence
I say we don’t recognize Trump on Presidents’ Day (next Monday). Not only is he a felon and adjudicated rapist, let’s face it, Musk is running the country! We know who is really in charge.
Dems should seriously just run on a “we Will string up and gut corpora ate executives and wealthy people in the public square every other Friday” platform.
Let's see if they continue Google Doodles for these events! I know it sounds trivial but they are created and take time! If Google are surrendering to donOLD, they would have to get rid of the doodles! If they are just streamlining process, as they suggest, the Doodles will continue!
I looked at Senator James Lankford's website today.
I couldn't find a reference to Black History Month.
He seems to have mentioned it during the Biden Administration. 😉
A Russian wet dream to make us hate each other. There is not enough security willing to be human shields to counter the citizens who know who is responsible for this hate.
Google is full of 🐈s. I tried Googling "Trump gets booed at the Super Bowl" and they gave all pro Donny Dump things. Even the one that said he was geared ended up saying the opposite once I played the video.
The Trump/Musk administration is a coup attempt. DOGE is a Trojan horse with no legitimate purpose. We must unite before their plan can succeed. Spread this message far and wide.
Corporations bend the knee to government power. The Democrats will surely celebrate bringing back Black History month when they eventually regain power. A living minimum wage and universal health care will have to wait…
it's always about the money for these large companies.. and government officials.. once you understand this, you'll realize the moral aspect is basically a hat trick misdirection, akin to focusing on social issues like abortion instead of the real issues of class warfare and workers rights
It only goes to show everyone that progressivity is merely a veneer for corporations to make you think they share your values. They do not. Their values are only about money and nothing more. NEVER forget that.
Ain't it so. Shocking. And, when this madness is over, we are going to have to pick up the pieces again. But we will. We will never stop making arguments for justice, equity, and fairness.💪🏽💪
Without pressure from the government and the people, corporations will always put their interests first. This is exactly what Musk and Trump want—unchecked power. None of these changes benefit the people. Not a single one! 😡
#TrumpMustGo #MuskRatMustGo
History will remember. When Trump dies in a rogue Big Mac or Melania incident (she must be over the stench of his bullshit, surely💨🦨😩) or the Democrats get back in, every arse kissing company will be erasing their history faster than Trudeau could say "it was the 80's"
I think it shows that corporate and institutional support was never emblematic of anything tangible except their perception of riding whichever wave leads to the most profitability for them. They are allies of money, and only money.
Most of the corps never wanted equality and diversity, but they complied because they thought they had to, legally-or public pressure. Now they see no legal obstacle to go back to the way it used to be, so they are doing just that.
Should folks be filing bar complaints against every government lawyer helping trump advance his unconstitutional/illegal orders!??? - They swore an oath to uphold the constitution and the law and are subject to professional ethics are they not? Trump is not their client the US Government is!
I work for what WAS a very stuffy bank in Oz. We’re having many events for the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras, to the point where it’s a given. Our sector boss has recently denounced Trump’s nonsense having previously spoken positively about him due to the financial benefits. Leave us out of it.
I am convinced that latent racism has long been an important strain in US politics. The US may become a white nationalist state -- but to its detriment. I foresee many of the best and brightest leaving for other countries.
I guess it goes to show it wasn't that important to them in the first place. Corporations never cared, let this be a reminder they exist to sell products, we should stop expecting more of them and we won't be disappointed
What progress. Supporting radical Islamic jihad. Supporting Hamas. Houthis in Yemen kidnapped 8 UN officials and humanitarian aid is stopped but when Hamas kidnapped 251 hostages, yeah…Let Arabs live in Jaffa free of Gaza and their bombs. You do not understand
It’s as if we have always been racist and the progress was theater. White women, racism is not good for you either (biggest beneficiary of DEI) White supremacy only benefits white cis men and these “bros” are hogs at the trough getting fat.
It is very very sad.
and the reason for the quick or pre compliance
access to contracts and also an unending series of investigations from DOJ, FEC, Labor. because of a bad faith reading of laws designed to help protect consumers as well as minority groups.
Google does nothing without careful analysis. It would not make such changes for a four year term. Google has concluded that Trump is permanent. There will be no further democratic elections in the US.
Given Google Inc's unbeleivably quick capitulation to the demands of this government and their attempts to gain favor of Trump, can I trust them with my personal data. How quickly will they provide access to that?
Racist (often violent) backlash against the “progress” of Black people is a feature of the USA. The standard order of operations is to lead with violence and intimidation. Enacting repressive policies and laws comes later.
Absolutely, pure sniveling cowardice from the corporations is exactly what I would expect. Many helped Hitler.
I was in an international trade union when the gangsters in charge decided business agents who handed out the work at the local level would be appointed instead of voted on by members.
This basically transferred our union from a democracy to a dictatorship and I tried to organize a revolt but no one was interested for it might interfere with their income short term.
People are gutless self-serving morons; I'm really not surprised; humanity sucks.
What’s so disheartening is that these companies absolutely have the ability and resources to do something meaningful to push back against the administration, but they’re lead by such craven and feckless ghouls, that they capitulate without any resistance.
I think everyone knew that their messages on diversity, equity, and inclusion was all bullshit, but it’s remarkable how quickly they are showcasing that they have no morals, and no principles. All they have is greed.
It's a calendar. It was a simple way to bring awareness. It was helpful. It's nice when calendars do this. Google's reasoning for removing the acknowledgements is weak and sad. What are some alternative search engines we can use?
Not *sustainable* for their business model & bottom line—if they don't bend their knees, capitulating to trump to avoid his wrath and the entire federal government under his command.
"Company says listed holidays were not ‘sustainable’ for its model in latest move to roll back diversity efforts"
It's how they've always felt. It's who they really are. No more politeness and soft racism. Remember what that kid who works for Elon Musk said 'It's cool to be racist again'.
These corporations were never your friends to begun with. They are not poor victims "bowing down" reluctantly to power, they have always and will always be on the side of power. Their activism was fake to begin with. They will always side with what makes them more money.

Entities.
They worship money.
They will put on chameleon clothes, but are happy to do business with murderous genocidal dictatorships, and will always obey and comply.

So all those times I hear someone say "this is not who America is" I roll my eyes with "bitch, it's who it always has been!"

They’re not cowards, they’re doing exactly what they want to do.

Sorry, but they ALWAYS were like this
Before they were just making some pink money, black money and so on and so forth
There's no such thing as HUMAN BEING to any corporation out there, only customers and/or profits
That's why marxists say that liberalism is an open door for fascism
Doesn’t make it better. At all.

These are spineless greedy cowards. Fight back!
#TrumpMustGo #MuskRatMustGo
But we'll remember.
If you got the balls I invite you to a open debate just me and you live on here or on X?
You’re up for it?
It is bad enough that this is coming from the top of government, but why are these corporations so quick to comply?
Just sad.

Greed
Racism, &
Misogyny
So I don’t think this stuff comes as a great surprise, it was always just a veneer, PR to make Americans feel good about themselves
Privat and professional.
"Company says listed holidays were not ‘sustainable’ for its model in latest move to roll back diversity efforts"
no bohls
It's disconcerting to say the least, but this is the path the Republicans have very stubbornly insisted on for all of us.
