I mean, even HARLEY DAVIDSON is having to pull back their DEI efforts (Now that they have been outed)….Who would have thought HD would go DEI/Woke?
I mean, it isn’t like your average biker is a weasley, faggoty, queen. I mean, yeah, you have “Dykes on Bikes”, but they are just posturing….and a VERY small minority of the heavy cruiser market. Most HD customers are anything but Woke.
Why would a CEO want to anger an already shrinking and aging customer base?
It has to , again, have been a teacher or teachers at the business schools that infected all these people, the CEO’s and HR directors about 35 years ago.
harley left its base years ago in search of the next gen of buyers but they couldn’t give a crap about an overpriced version of americana. they still live in mom’s basement for lord’s sake. harley’s, or was it davidson’s, daughter took over marketing and went straight to china for signature clothing but still charged made in us prices. i still have my bike but i don’t see many youngsters on one these days. its about too dangerous to ride these days, what with stupid drivers and crumbling roads.
