Looking at the websites of The World Economic Forum and the United Nations, one might think that earth was inhabited only by women. Empowering women. Women of the future. The Gender Gap. Women’s Healthcare. Women inventors. It is nauseating. In Palestine these ‘women’ are murdered daily. In America they are raped by illegals every day. And McKenzie Scott’s ‘charitable donations’ are targeting baby deaths, ie abortions, and trans, ie men who want to be fake women. While Bill Gates wants to sterilize all women. YEAhhhh….
The women on these WEF and UN websites are all powerful. Wonder Women who are going to save planet earth from humanity. Pictures of smiling African women wearing brand new designer clothes working the fields in Africa… Or board room styled executive women sitting in ivory towers wearing Hillaryesque pant suits. YUCH!
But then I open a fashion magazine online and all I see are fat women. I have absolutely no idea what that outfit would look like on me – so I simply shut it down. Other retailers seem to be under the impression that blacks make up 75% of the US population. Who are they appealing to? Their base of maybe 4% blacks? Europe remains the least diversified country – with roughly .5% to 3% black populations. Are these stores forced to comply with black and fat mandates?
Victoria Secrets: A thin black woman with a triple A bust is jump roping to prove the bra she’s wearing is ‘bounce proof’. An obese black woman wants me to stretch with her while she ‘moves very slowly’ on video camera. And plump toneless ‘runners’ video themselves errr ‘running’ to get me to buy their jogging tights. And then there’s the ‘ask a black stylist’ what to wear… only she’s wearing a Captain Kangaroo jacket….
I’m not sure whether to be offended or to laugh!
Before I get the hate mail, I do understand the stigma of the Auschwitz skinny models that represent 1% of the total population. But Retailers are losing. People don’t go to the physical stores because their inventory is pitiful. Their inventory is pitiful because volume is curbed due to the high cost of rent. Commercial property is in a never ending spiral. It is tanking and its debt is growing – estimated to be $2.2 trillion – coming due by 2027.
The yield on commercial bond debt is now 11% – which sounds great until you watch the bond value plummet by 20%. It isn’t just the Pandemic Shutdown, it isn’t the Supply Chain, and it isn’t just the mortgage rates hiked into oblivion by our Jerome Powell – Bank of International Settlements – sponge, like homeowners, it is the property insurance, utilities and property taxes that are making commercial real estate worthless. The same ‘utility’ cost that will triple as more people buy the ridiculous EV’s.
While many are moving to red states like Florida and Texas to escape state income tax, the property tax rates and insurance costs are destroying ‘ownership’. But the exposure is not just about the retail industry, it is about the banks sitting on dead loans. The five banks with the highest exposures range from commercial portfolios representing 57% to 68% of outstanding loans. The bank with the highest debt is New York Community Bancorp holding roughly $111 billion in commercial loans.
This is why Trump can’t get a Bond on his commercial real estate – the industry is about to implode.
The effect is NOT just on the US, four countries are poised to find themselves invested in sand: Germany, South Korea, Canada and Singapore. While housing bubbles have come and gone, they hit hard and strong, and recouped relatively nicely within a five to 10 year time frame. But they had a market. By contrast, the commercial market is dead as a whorehouse in Amish country. What lives? Warehouses. Warehouses for Amazon, for retailers, for pot growers, and inventory. The era of buying a beautiful skyscraper to house worker bees is dead. It is just too expensive – and the cost is now devoted to employee wages and benefits instead.
FOR EXAMPLE; In Colorado, survival income is now topping $100,000. In one year, the average price of a new home went up $100,000 while wages rose 10%, food rose 98%, and energy rose 24.7%… at the same time the federal government reported inflation of 3.4%.
And anyone who disagrees that the economy is its most stellar in history is a damn liar… according to state democrats who seem to now speak for every person in America when asked to compare Brandon to Trump’s presidency. No one simply speaks for themselves – including fashion stores – they speak for the DEI Police.
According to the ACLU, “anti-DEI efforts are the latest attack on racial equality and free speech”. And – of course – it is all Donald Trump’s fault:
“First, Donald Trump and right-wing extremists attacked government trainings on racism and sexism. Then the far right tried to censor classroom instruction on racism and sexism. Next, they banned books about BIPOC and LGBTQ lives. Today, the extreme right’s latest attack is aimed at dismantling diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs.” ~ it is difficult for me to print this without background music on my tiny violin…
In response, states are now eliminating the need for Law Exams because blacks can’t pass them – that kind of DEI. Employees of the largest construction firms were required to take DEI classes before they could build buildings – because buildings are racist. Retailers were required to have stipulated percentages of black and obese models. To represent and embrace the volume of fat – like you are getting 30 sq ft of a woman for the price of a 5 sq ft woman… VOLUME.
Suddenly, these far left CEO’s are realizing that DEI is costing them – not just in their competitive retail ability, but in their hiring cost of the DEI trenchant of VP’s and assigned plebes. But the damage is done. Fat women and blacks are NOT going to save America. DEI has about as much impact as electric automobiles. The economy/pollution is worse, the quality is worse, the value is worse, and the money spent is Blowin’ in The WIND…
