      Which is a principled distinction. Much of the behavior of woke capitalism is a matter of corporate managers misusing the assets entrusted to them for purposes other than benefitting the shareholders.https://twitter.com/jbarro/status/1384217004488335365 …

      The GOP says it's mad at corporations even as it protects shareholders from taxes. But that's the thing: Firms aren't their shareholders. The GOP's "woke capital" beef isn't with capital, it's with *managers* & the workers and customers who influence them. https://www.businessinsider.com/woke-capital-isnt-about-capital-republicans-taxes-corporations-managers-2021-4 …

      Attracting superior talent to a company doesn't benefit shareholders?

      Aggressive partisanship & stifling ideological conformity drive away at least as many people as they attract.

          Because American politics are sorted so strongly by education, 'woke' politics will attract many more degreed professionals to the talent pool than it will drive away.

          Right, if you run a law firm and are dependent on hiring a bunch of Harvard Law School grads every year there is simply a right answer to the question of which side of, say, a marriage equality case you want to be filing pro bono amicus briefs on.

          "Superior talent." Companies would be far better off exchanging 1/6 supporters for BLM supporters.

          I don't think you've perceived how much the views of the workforce have changed since 1988. Corporations, even in traditionally Republican industries, are behaving as if they believe the equation very much favors diversity and inclusion over older values.

          The number of qualified workers driven away by an inclusive and progressive work environment is far lower than the number lost by an old boys' club promoting traditional Republican initiatives. It's the invisible hand at work.

          Is there data to support this hypothesis? I’d have to think CEOs and HR departments have done that analysis and believe that the talent they bring in by being woke is worth the risk of alienating certain customer segments.
