The woke agenda is flooding our society and the architects are not even hiding it anymore. Yesterday at the Clinton Global Initiative conference, powerful leaders admitted to their work agenda and threatened those who choose to fight against it.

They’re not even hiding it anymore.

According to The Daily Caller. Unilever CEO Alan Jope declared his company would “not back down” on Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) issues during a Tuesday forum at the Clinton Global Initiative. As a framework, ESG helps stakeholders understand how an organization manages risks and opportunities related to environmental, social, and governance aspects.

The United States began considering the use of regulation to manage or reduce pollution (and other negative externalities) produced in the pursuit of economic growth in the 1980s. They sought to also improve employee labor and safety standards, although much progress remains to be made even today.

ESG has now evolved into a framework that includes Diversity and Equity inclusion and that many critics say is a woke agenda being pushed by governments

Unilever CEO Alan Jope said the anti-woke backlash is dangerous. Take a listen to his statements.

Jope spoke as part of a panel that included Clinton, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, and Sustainable Energy for All CEO Damilola Ogunbiyi. In addition to BlackRock’s investments, Fink has called for changes to the charters of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank to support ESG.

According to Investopedia, ESG integrates social and environmental factors into investment considerations rather than just considering profitability. As reasons to oppose ESG and other “woke” agenda items, critics have pointed to blackouts in Ghana and an agricultural crisis in Sri Lanka.

Unilever CEO Alan Jope also called to make ESG ratings mandatory:

During the panel, Clinton and Fink labeled ESG opponents as “climate change deniers,”

The woke agenda is here and the pushers are not backing down anytime soon. They claim to be supporting the environment but really they are pushing their liberal agenda down our throats. Enough is enough.
