the Jow Forums boycott was successful.
Procter & Gamble Loses $5 Billion Dollars Following ‘Woke’ Gillette Ad Campaign
Checked. But for them it's pocket change.
still, so much for the faggots on here who said that nothing would change anyway because only a bunch of nerds on Jow Forums would care about it.
guess not.
It's probably fake news written by journalists who don't understand a fucking thing about accounting.
True but have you seen how hard (((they))) fight for a quarter?
5 billy is not pocket change even to a company this size. I'm glad they took a hit from that ridiculous campaign.
Safety razors are cheaper and give better results anyway. You need to buy them off the net though. Blades are really expensive in stores
Loosing a penny is a shoah
>5 Billion is pocket change
It literally says the authors name right there. Its PJW.
They literally stated that they expected to lose that money, if not more as they released the commercial. They knew their ad was going to take a financial hit, but would overall be a success. In a year or so, they'll be that "we/they were first" company and rake in the wealth because they "didn't care about money".
You confused million for billion.
Even black women in the ad comment section were complaying about how hateful the ad was towards white males. People are so sick of the feminist hate speech that even lefty politicians are not using feminism as a talking point anymore, they just say "women issues", they want the women vote but dont want to be seen as a feminist.
That is one beautiful set Finny.
This.
It probably hasn't gotten to the people ACTUALLY responsible yet, but it will, and in the meantime, a lot of people are getting fired over this.
>"a net loss of about $5.24 billion, or $2.12 per share..."
So how much were the share going for before the lost?
Thats not how it works, i dont time to run an accounting class but they're doing this write down because of currency rates to pay less tax in more profitable businesses elsewhere, their sales were fairly stable with a 1% downturn in revenues on shaving products, their share price continued to rise after the news.
good
someone edit the meme with the black guy stopping the guy being P&G and on the left - money/profits
That might have been somebody's plan, but it's not really a strategy, it's more like just a wish, and I don't see the genie that's going to make it come true anywhere, but you keep hoping he pops up.
get the real article - not some soi boy red cap wearing outlet.
The actual reason for the write down is rather nuanced. But hey don't let that get in the way of some masturbations friends
HAHAHAHAOH SHIT-------- I just saw - PJW wrote this.
abandon thread - this is nonsense.
sage
Friendly reminder that despite vigorous denial, P&G really are Satanists.
No, that's bullshit especially from a publicly traded company.
Jow Forums heckles, lose shekels
Except that won't actually happen.
$5 billion loss is big enough to sack people. Very likely the people who made ads would've been sacked.
you're insane
Paul Dildo Watson is too much of a chicken shit to write that it was anti WHITE male, not just anti-male.
It's not about the money. It's about sending a message.
>In a year or so, they'll be that "we/they were first" company and rake in the wealth because they "didn't care about money"
It’s far more likely that they’ll lose another 10-20 billion over the next year
is PJW gay?
in a recent interview he said he had a gf.
5 billion is pretty woke
We'll see. I'm still doubtful of the whole get-woke-go-broke meme at the moment.
Then check what happened with the Marvel comics when they went feminist or what happened to the feminist ghost busters or with a country when it goes in the 3rd wave feminist path
Yes, individual projects can fail. That's not unique to getting woke though. And the Marvel comics side failure was predictable anyways, the percentages of actual comic buyers is absurdly male.
If you think about it, 5 billion is nothing for getting the sentiment of a nation of a particular topic.
The thing is sucessful things fail when they go woke. Feminist mentality not only cant create their own things, but also make already sucessful things fail. Nornal oeople dont like angry lesbian mentality, this should stay in tumbler not in the mainstream or in the Goverment.
>this should stay in tumbler
Harder to contain now that Tumbler banned porn. And I would agree that woke products tend to do poorly, I guess my point is whether the parent company actually takes a sizable enough hit. Does it actually ruin a company that decides to get woke, or does it just marginally harm their bottom line? There are plenty ideologues, especially in big tech, that will likely see the failure of their wokeness as a sign that they need to push harder.
Oh now i understood your point. In one hand marketing is usually to make the sellings go higher, so not only a fail but a weak sucess is seen as a bad move, marketing cost millions and if done wrong can destroy the company image. But then theres what you said, if the company got hijacked by ideologues, then the company its not anymire about making money but for social enginering. Even in this case you still have stock holders who will probably get angry, but yeah i guess in this case they dont see a failure as a failure, because the ideologues dont really care about the company so making it lose money or damaging its image its not a big deal for them.
he's not gay... his girlfriend is friends with someone i know
I think, if anything, the go broke part may come, but it will likely be a ways down the line. It will be something that takes a concerted effort over time. We probably aren't going to break, say, Disney by boycotting a couple of woke movies for a couple of years. A giant company like that has money to burn, and then light a whole new fire and keep on burning. As far as investors go that's true, however how many super rich, ultra wealthy people have drunk the koolaid? They don't even have to ultra wealthy really. There's plenty of rich people that donate to the Dems, or progressive movements and projects. If a more neutral or conservative minded investor decides to pull out over lower profits due to wokeness, then theres likely someone with more of an affinity for the woke message to step in and keep the giant companies affloat. Now I don't know exact numbers about the wealthy elites, but I would argue there has been a trend recently of many industries monoplizing, Hollywood again as a major example. If there's really only one or two investment options then it's going to be even easier for wealthier progressives to get in on the action.
I'll add that I would certainly like to see a lot of the companies and corporations go broke. So broke that don't ever see them again. I'm just highly skeptical.
I stopped buying Gillette, I mean it’s not a lot of money but 30-50 dollars a year they would get from me it’s going to other brands so losing the business is bad but people going to your competitor is INFINITELY worse. It goes from a $50 hit to $100 hit to a compounded $150 hit so it all adds up in the long run.
Stock exchange course on an all time high, can’t be that bad
I tend to agree. But you are forgeting about something important: considering that the final goal is social enginering, the fact that people see how the company lost money will send a message that most people dont like the message. One of the weapons of the progressives is to pretend that most normal people agree with them, and the only ones that disagree are a small hand of racists or sexists that does that because they are crazy and angry. Now look at that, a big loss in value just because one ad show that most normal people dispise the mysandric message against men, so they loose this narrative. Losing this narrative give courage to the silent majority that also dont like the progressives but were in silence till now because the progressives were able to convince people that only sexists and racists were against the feminist hate speech ideas. So now they cant talk about it whitout the fear of being called racists or sexists, and they are against the progressives because its only logical to be against their madness, not because they are racists or sexists. Before, convinced that pondered people agreed with those ideas, even people that didnt agreed with them, pretended to agree in the fesr of being rotuled as sexist or racist. So it is a great victory, even if the bilionaries behind this dont care about losing 5 bilion.
You say something this stupid at a shareholder meeting and expect to get voted out.
I see your point. I suppose I just think it's going to take longer than most others seem to think. A small victory is still a victory.
Cope harder faggot
This! Do this!
Get ready for more Marvel failures, particularly MCU. Captain Fungus already was a huge loss. Now they're replacing Thor with a woman. They're killing their own billion dollar franchise.
I know, and Thor was really the only interest I still had after Endgame.
Based. I'm actively boycotting all of these company's who push this shit
>implying this expected loss isn't being sponsored by gods chosen people
I think we are already in a foward spot in the culture war. Even lefty politicians dont say feminism anymore not like in 2014 atleast. They still talk about women issues because they want the women vote, but they dont want to be seens as feminists, the misandric movement lost alot of power already. Even in 2016 the staff working in the Hillary campagne said that one of the main reasons of their defeat to Trump was because they were not able to take Hilary image away from the SJWs, in the mind of the common men her image was together with the angry lesbians that see all men as mindless animals and rapists. So you fastfoward to 2019 and politicians are not even calling themselvs feminists anymore, they learned the leson, normal people dont like the hateful harpies. I think we are way closer to define feminism as a terrorist group than you seen to believe. The gillet ad was a big victory in this sens, you saw even black women talking against it, and black women should be a granted vote for the left ideals.
user, they lost a lot for their talcum powder giving cunts cancer
>we intentionally damaged the shareholders' property
Grounds for a lawsuit.
go woko go broko
haha, keep of the pressure lads
That's like, 500 million razors. You're mistaking pocket change with a Scrooge McDuck sized vault of shekels.
>we/they were first
Ahh of course. That totally will make men buy their product, right?
P&G posts strong sales, takes $8 billion Gillette writedown
reuters.com
Are you sure?
>boycott p&g
>buy feather blades and a classic Merkur safety razor
>multiple times cheaper
>less skinburn
Very nice, would boycott again
Yes, all our other brands are killing it, razors is a drag on the company.
Procter and Gable is not only Gillette brainlet.
Get woke go broke
Remember the 5 billion!
TALK ABOUT SHAVING YOUR PROFITS!
I switched after it and never looked back
I just applied to work for them. If I'm successful how can I rot them from the inside?

COPE HARDER FAGGOT
