The last week or so has seen some epic SJW-led meltdowns that serve as rather useful reminders of how not to run a business. For those who have not been keeping track of such things – and, to be very honest, I have not, except in a fairly tangential way – the fact that various SJWs keep torpedoing once-successful businesses, franchises, and ventures, is both heartening and sobering.

It is heartening, because it is always good fun to watch the idiot minions of the Evil One devour each other. (If you’ve ever read The Screwtape Letters, you will realise very quickly that the servants of evil are ravenously hungry for the souls of their own kind. And, yes, I am well aware that the book is a work of fiction – that does not change the fact that it is well-informed by the truth of Scripture.)

But it is also sobering, because you can see very quickly just how much damage these cretins can do to an organisation, if they are left to roam unchecked through the halls (whether figuratively or literally) and cause mischief.

Let’s take a look at a few very recent case studies to understand just how bad things can get.

Deep-Fried Alpha-Bat Soup

Y’all remember that AWFUL show on The CW involving a lipstick lesbian named Ruby Rose, called Batwahmen or something equally stupid? And do you remember how I told y’all, about 18 months ago, just how bad and stupid the show was, and how it was alienating even its own SJW-plagued fanbase?

How did that alpha-bat soup taste?

As it happens, The CW Network wasn’t actually making any money on all of this SJW-friendly nonsense. And now, it’s up for sale:

Indeed, The CW Network was so badly mismanaged, and so poor at creating shows that people actually wanted to watch, that apparently it NEVER MADE MONEY, ever, throughout its entire history. (I am unable to confirm this independently, as The CW Network is a privately held company that is jointly owned by two public companies, ViacomCBS and AT&T via its WarnerMedia division. That latter division will be sold off to The Discovery Network later this year. So who knows what’s going on?)

Attack of the Snaggle-Show

Readers of a certain vintage (i.e. Ye Olde Phartes, especially those even Olde-er and Phartier than me) will remember the existence of a cable and satellite channel called G4, back in the early, um, Noughties, stretching to the middle of the last decade. (Good God, but this makes me feel old…) That network hosted a couple of shows – specifically, Attack of the Show! and Xplay, starring pre-Wall incarnations of Olivia Munn and Morgan Webb, and celebrated video games and geek culture. They met with considerable success (for a niche channel), before they kind of forgot their purpose and essentially started alienating their fanbase.

The channel folded at the end of 2014, and stayed quite dead for roughly 7 years after that. But then it was resurrected at the end of 2021, and now has a full YOOTOOBZ channel and streaming connections that allow them to go live across multiple platforms. The new Xplay airs with an OG host named Adam Sessler, and a slate of new hosts, including one Indiana “Froskurinn” Black, who was apparently some sort of e-sports colour commentator. (Whatever the heck that means.)

“Frosk” recently decided that she didn’t like the comments in the chat about her presenting style, and – rather inevitably, given her clear SJW look – went on an epic, and very ridiculous, rant about sexism among the horny nerds within the Xplay fanbase.

This went down about as well as you can imagine:

Missing the Point

Frosk did get one thing right in her entire unhinged rant – she certainly isn’t anywhere near as hot as the previous hosts of the original version of the show.

Since I’m an arse, and since many of my readers are quite proud arseholes, let’s do the appropriately arse-faced thing and quickly compare the three.

Olivia Munn:

Morgan Webb:

Indiana Black:

Welp… she’s right about the fact that “she” is nowhere near as hot as her predecessors, that’s for damned sure.

But she’s wrong about virtually everything else.

The original channel succeeded because the sexiness of the hosts simply complemented the existing programming. They understood their target market – horny nerds – and RESPECTED them. Olivia and Morgan succeeded because they didn’t pander to nerds, and they didn’t talk down to them or make fun of them either. They were always up for a funny gag, they didn’t take themselves overly seriously, and they didn’t mind doing stupid shit on camera for “teh lulz”.

Gamers and nerds everywhere saw them acting in genuine and funny ways, and respected them for it. That is why the original channel did well, at least for a while, until it lost its way.

But with her rant, Frosk has essentially ensured the destruction of her own employer.

The WAHMENZ-Bomb

Pretty much no one who reads my work has the first clue about The 355, which apparently is a movie about a cadre of all-female, all-awesome, all-ass-kicking spies who go out there and foil a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad, awful, dreadful, chilling, evil, nasty, ugly plot to TAKE OVER TEH WURRRRRLD!!! by some nameless villain (a man, natch).

That is because most of us have better things to do than to pay attention to a film that is plainly about scoring duh-ver-suh-teeeee!!! points. Honestly, I had no clue that this movie even existed until I saw an advertisement for it on the side of a bus in the city centre.

Apparently, the totally awesome female leads didn’t do the movie any favours, because it bombed. HARD. The production budget for this turkey was something on the order of about US$75M. The rule of thumb with Hollyweird films is that, when you account for marketing and advertising, you need to make back at least double the production budget just to break even.

This movie, featuring an all-female lead cast, made back less than 10% of its original budget. And this is far from the first example of a woke, all-female spy flick crashing and burning. The reboot of Charlie’s Angels, directed by the ultra-Leftist pint-sized Pinko actress, Elizabeth Banks, completely tanked as well, a couple of years ago:

And whom did the STRAWNG INDEPEDENT WAHMENZ who don’t need no man blame for the ensuing catastrophe?

Men, of course. Apparently they need us more than they realise.

Lessons Learned

I’ve been writing for YEARS about the dangers of letting SJWs into your organisations. The route of their attack is ALWAYS exactly the same. They start by appealing to your better nature, by seducing you with arguments about the power of the “Inclusion & Diversity” or “Equity” agenda. And inevitably, they end up corrupting and destroying every organisation that they infiltrate.

You need to understand two things very clearly here.

First, what happens when you take the first letter of each of the words, “Diversity”, “Inclusion”, and “Equity” (or “Equality”) and put them together in one word?

You get: “DIE”.

That pretty much sums up what SJWs want you to do, especially if you are a straight White male.

Second, all of those arguments about the need for diversity always hinge on the same blatantly false argument. That is to say, diverse organisations are more productive, and thereby perform better, than companies that are more homogeneous in terms of the composition of their workforce.

This is nonsense. There is NO discernible, statistically significant benefit in terms of actual stock performance for publicly traded companies from greater diversity – nor any discernible, statistically significant tax.

But that is BEFORE we count the actual cost of implementing these idiotic policies. Nobody accounts for these, and nobody bothers to think of them. These must be accounted for VERY carefully. In reality, when you displace men – especially straight, and really especially White – in favour of a DIE agenda, you are imposing costs on the organisation that you have to account for.

Furthermore, when you implement those policies, you think that you are breaking up cliques and introducing diversity of opinion and race. This simply does not happen in practice.

I used to work in two Big Bad Globobanks, in the capital markets divisions, as part of their Finance teams. Big Bad Globobanks are some of the absolute worst offenders when it comes to the DIE agenda. And it doesn’t do one single damned thing to stop people from forming cliques.

Chinese and Indian men absolutely dominate the front-line P&L and risk teams. Male Jews, Chinese, and Indians dominate the trading teams. Women and Blacks dominate the accounting groups that put together the balance sheets – because those functions require far less quantitative skill and knowledge than the risk and P&L jobs. Homos and weirdos dominate the HR function.

You want to know where straight White men end up? Usually in the back office, settling stuff and doing drudge work.

And, in the end, everyone loses out.

The core lesson to take away here is that you must take every possible action to inoculate yourself against woke stupidity. You can only do this by setting up your own platforms and organisations that actively police against entryists.

You can go a LONG way toward protecting yourself by doing some basic reading. Here is a selection of readings – the third is probably the best and most useful – to use to educate yourself.

The hard, harsh reality is that, if you do not actively stamp out the cockroaches before they infiltrate your organisation, you WILL find yourself in deep trouble – whether that is 6 months or 6 years later, if you get woke, YOU GO BROKE.

So don’t. It’s just that simple.
