Nickelodeon, MTV and CBS are owned by Viacom which also has Comedy Central, VH1, BET, CMT, and TV Land, so they're in the left camp. Gillette went woke as did Goodyear, so they are on the left too. I know Burger King has also made some advertisements about the pink tax and their UK division made a public statement that they would keep selling milkshakes during the whole milkshake thing. Of course, Ben and Jerrys, Papa John's, and Dove are another few companies that also went woke.

As for on the right, I would add Bitchute, Minds, Gab, pretty much every gun company and merchant, Dominos, YUM! Brands which includes Taco Bell and KFC, Chick Fil A, Koch Industries, and hardware stores like Ace and Menards. I would also consider putting Tesla and SpaceX in the right category as Elon Musk, while still a liberal minded person, is getting more and more redpilled by the day. NASCAR is stereotypically right wing so they can go in the right category too.

Nascar had the BLM on cars and people left in droves because of the Wallace fake claim and calling the fans racists. They also banned the confederate flag ... so they lean left in my book. For media I would add the Blaze.

For real? That sucks they went woke with the BLM stuff. Blaze is definitely to the right, they got Crowder after all.

Don't forget Target. Any store that says men can use the women's dressing rooms and restrooms anytime they want is a lefty. As I understand, Frito-Lay is also a big left leaner. As far as right wing, you gotta put Black Rifle Coffee on the list!

I know Lowe’s leans left, didn’t know Home Depot did too. I prefer Ace anyway though.

I'm already doing a very good job not patronizing these pathetic woke companies. It's a damn shame, but I'm protesting with my wallet instead of by destroying other people's livelihoods (wallets). Amazon is a tough one for me, as it is the only streaming service I use and I truly love it. Anyone know any really good alternatives to Amazon and Netflix, and that aren't woke?

It so sad they seem to all lean left. I like Patriot mobile for cell phones. I have not used Amazon for over 8 years so I usually by direct or off ebay which is mostly individuals. I generally go to local businesses for most purchases.

Thank for the input, and that's what I thought. I hear they did a black national anthem (?) last night before the first NFL game. I did not watch, and will not watch, because they've lost their f**king minds. That truly was suicide on live TV. I think the NFL is in for a harsh reckoning. I'm gonna look into Patriot Mobile for cell phone/service. I'd be more into buying at brick and mortar stores if these stupid mask mandates were lifted. I will wear the mask in the grocery store, but anything beyond that is just too much for me. I choose to avoid the wearing of a mask that is barely effective.

Thanks!

I am not watching the NFL either. I am not sure what they did or did not do. I know some people were booing for some reason because they had some people in the stadium.

What I know about the kickoff of the 2020 NFL season is from news articles I read on various websites. I don't think I'll ever watch again.

I don’t think there are any. As far as online shopping is concerned, Ebay is the only true competitor Amazon has, and I believe they lean left themselves. Only way around that is to buy straight from the manufacturer if you can or go to a brick and mortar store. For streaming, they all lean left. There’s no getting around it unless you just watch videos on Bitchute.

He's right you know

Thanks! I will check out Bitchute. I am also checking out Patriot Mobile, per who_am_i's recommendation. F**k this racist, socialist coup attempt! I would so love to see a coup d'etat if the radical left controls all three branches...and I don;t think it's out of the question. The military could be our last line of defense. It's comforting to know that we have, by leaps and bounds, the most powerful military in the world. I don;t think socialism can happen, simply because I believe our military will stand up for America! I hope this is a moot point, though. Trump 2020 win and hold the Senate and I think he will be able to get a lot done in his last four years. Please dear God let this man, Donald Trump, defeat evil once again!!!!

Respect for all lives lost on 9/11. USA, USA!!!!

Cheers!

Personally, I think these two stereotypes and how they've been sorted are BS. That said, I completely agree with the general concept of voting with dollars.

I agree. I am not looking for what the left does in boycotts but to personally choose who you do business with.

I would prefer companies stay out of politics too. However, with everything as politically polarized as it is now, I don’t know how much longer that can be a viable option.

I also wish sports would stay out of politics too. Makes it hard to watch. Seems like everything has to be political these days.

MeWe for conservative social media.
Patriot Mobile is one of the rare conservative phone companies.
Tom's of Maine is actually no good. They pay for halal certification which funds the world's most evil liberal demonic religion, so I don't give a cent to them.

There's a Dutch idiom: "Wie betaalt die bepaalt" which translates to "Whoever pays decides".

I said it before, it's not the 2nd amendment why guns still aren't outlawed in the U.S. It's the NRA paying political campaigns, and you can't expect them to keep paying for a ban that will put a damper on their business or rather the business of the manufacturers they represent. I also know that president Bush sr. once vetoed aninternational climate bill that could have saved us a lot of trouble we are in now when it comes to climate change, just because oil companies threatened to boycott his next election campaign (of course, back then he couldn't know that Bill Clinton would beat him in the elections keeping him from a second term). And so the list is endless. Now it's not relevant what your opinion is on the examples I named, all I'm saying it's very clear that money decided their outcome, not the opinion of the politicians themselves and not the opinion of the people either, but the money flows of companies who have important interests.

Now it surprises me to see a few monopolists in the "lean left" bar... Since we know that U.S. politics is entirely based on commercial parties funding one party or another, and although it only seems logical to boycott "right right" parties if you wanna vote for Biden or boycott "lean left" if you wanna vote for Trump, but remember these parties rather have interests in these politicians regarding their own business and not your interest.

I am therefore not very fond of commercial companies backing political parties, to be honest.

I am not on board with the climate change train. I know the propaganda is so strong on this but when I do my own research I do not agree with how paying more taxes will cool the earth. Also the NRA is an organization created to stop the gun grabs from the left. It is paid to do this by membership by gun owners. The antigun people are paid by large corporations and billionaires (who are progressive leftists, not rich republicans) which is hard for the small guy to fight against. I have yet to meet a rich republican who values life and family values. All rich people I have known personally are democrats and progressive.

You missed the point. You see the topics I mentioned and you go on onto their content, but not the point behind this entire discussion. My point was not the examples in content, the point was how money makes the political agenda on these topics and whatever that be in the direction for the good or the bad, that's not relevant in this particular post.

By the way the people you name leftists are the least likely to sail a leftist course... Not in their interest, unless you have a picture to left politics that has nothing to do with left politics. Both on democrat and republican side commercial interests of the backers play a role (already ruling the democrats out as a leftist party also, as it goes against everything left politics stands for).

But that is not relevant either. You made a point about brands backing parties, and brings us to the point how money rules the USA and not politicians and also not the people. And commercial parties backing political parties can threaten politicians to stop their funding as soon as they do something they don't like and thus politicians follow. And when it comes to this particular point both the democrats and the republicans are equally guilty.

Who pays decides. That's the way it has been for as long as humanity exists, actually, but due to U.S. politics being funded by commercial parties with loads of money, you see it there even more, and a conflict of interests is therefore inevitable. The two topics I named are merely examples of how money decides how politicians decide and not the public interest.

And that's why I am against commercial parties funding political campaigns. Even when sometimes something good for the public can come out of it, but that is mostly rather a coincidence than goodness from those companies side. Be honest, if you were owner of a large commercial imperium would you fund a candidate whose agenda might be a threat to your business? And what would you do if they promise to remove that particular point from their agendas in order to get you on their side? That's how it goes.

I think it would be better if companies just minded their business and kept themselves out of politics, completely.

How about gun companies, or the military-industrial complex?

I assume, maybe incorrectly, that the users of this site are in north america or europe. I don't think the military-industrial complex is interested in destroying us, more the people in the middle east region. I think gun companies are like alcohol companies: they prefer people purchase their product legally and use it responsibly.

They are destroying someone though, even if we are technically at war with them. A human life is a human life as far as I'm concerned. We shouldn't be the world police, and I blame the power of the military-industrial complex as well as warhawk politicians. The military-industrial complex, while not always actively seeking your destruction certainly has no problem with "collateral damage" as long as they make a profit.
