jordan understood something that most
people today don't
people need to get away from all the
politics and division
whether it's with sports comedy music or
whatever the majority of us just want a
diversion to turn off all the noise but
when large companies start fighting the
culture wars and ignoring the mission
which is business
people start looking for alternatives
it's that simple
and good leaders understand that
they know it's not worth sinking into
the woke muck just to make a handful of
people happy no one's ever happy
and no one ever respects people that
cave
today
the streaming service netflix took a
stand
putting out a memo to its employees 11
000 of them
saying they aren't going to take tiny
little stands over every single piece of
content they put out
they're not going to cave to the left
who complain about this comedian or this
actor they're just gonna go about their
business
and if you're not happy with it well
maybe you should find yourself a new job
quote
not everyone will like or agree with
everything on our service while every
title is different we approach them
based on the same set of principles we
program for a diversity of audiences and
tastes and we let viewers decide what's
appropriate for them versus having
netflix sensor specific artists or
voices if you'd find it hard to support
our content netflix may not be the best
place for you
what an amazing idea
letting the viewers decide
thank you
it's about time companies started
treating
us like adults
this memo was a direct response to some
whiny employees who just a few months
ago were protesting and crying over the
company airing a dave chappelle special
all because he made some jokes they
didn't like
cancel people that are more powerful
than me
he canceled jk rowling my god j.k
rowling wrote all the harry potter books
by
herself she sold so many books the bible
worries about her
and it canceled her because she said in
an interview and this is not exactly
what she said but effectually she said
gender was a fact
and then the trans community got mad
they started calling her a turf i didn't
even know what that was
but i know that
trans people make up words to win
arguments
some of these netflix employees were
offended
it's okay to laugh but you're sparking
hate conversations the problem is that
as trans people we have very limited
rights all right we have a whole
piece of content on netflix called
disclosure
that is you know for trans people by
trans people that explains how comedy
and content such as dave chappelle's is
harmful
you don't have a right in this country
to not be offended if you don't want to
work for a company find a new job
these people were trying to twist the
boss's arms into getting their way
and they didn't care if the company
ended up having a worse product or less
revenue all they cared about was forcing
their lack of sense of humor on the rest
of us but netflix they couldn't care
less they're telling their employees
we're not picking sides you can go out
and fight in the culture war if you want
but if it keeps you from doing your job
go work somewhere else
if you don't want to watch dave
chappelle watch something else
you don't have to keep me from watching
it
it's smart corporate business we put it
out there and then you can watch
whatever remember when major league
baseball wanted to make a political
statement last year by moving their
all-star game out of georgia all because
of a fake news story about a voting bill
well they ended up moving to colorado
where voting laws are actually stricter
but that didn't matter it was just for
show
and atlanta georgia lost out on millions
in revenue and major league baseball
lost out on the ratings recording their
second worst rating number of all time
when politics gets into america's
favorite pastime it's way past time to
turn the channel
hey look at disney
they stuck their neck out for
kindergarten teachers to talk to
six-year-olds about sex and transsexuals
huge mistake not only is it
inappropriate but it was a horrific
business decision and now florida's
stripping disney of all the special
treatment they get in orlando
netflix isn't making the same mistake
and neither did spotify remember the mob
went after spotify's most popular
podcast guy joe rogan spotify got a
whole lot of heat
to fire their biggest revenue driver but
the head of spotify stood his ground and
told his employees he wasn't caving
saying this
while i strongly condemn what joe rogan
has said and i agree with his decision
to remove past episodes from our
platform i realize some will want more
and i want to make one point very clear
i don't believe that silencing joe is
the answer
good leaders don't cave they pause they
reflect
and then they do what's best after
careful consideration
but these corporate leaders are stuck
with a younger generation that just
feels so entitled to getting their way
if one thing goes wrong or if one thing
makes the slightest person a bit
uncomfortable they launch a corporate
jihad
joe rogan actually put it
on his podcast this way this week watch
a friend of mine who's an employer
she employs people and she was saying
that like some of her employees are
saying i need a mental health day today
she's like you're not sick get the to
work what are you talking you want to
get paid for this mental health day show
the up you we're not talking about
your your parents just died in a car
accident no you're just you have a high
level of anxiety today you know it's
this roe versus way thing i i saw it in
the news and i need a mental health day
you show up at work show up at work
and work harder you can get a mental
health day if someone dies not if
hillary loses
the chinese who are trying to take over
the world don't take mental health days
because they use the wrong pronoun
this is a competitive world americans
can't afford to go soft here's elon musk
on that
i think there will be some very strong
companies uh coming out of china
um
there's just a lot of
super talented hard-working people in
china that are um
strongly believe in in manufacturing and
and they will
figure they'll
they won't just be burning the midnight
oil they'll be burning the three am oil
so
um they won't even leave the leave the
factory type of thing whereas in america
people are trying to avoid going to work
at all
we're in an economic war with the
chinese this lazy corporate culture war
is going to make us lose this economic
war
so we hope more companies follow in
netflix's footsteps as calvin coolidge
once said the business of america is
business
so let's all go to work stop complaining
and then go home
have a drink
and watch jesse waters prime time
