The North Face pulls ads from Facebook

I know where I'm not buying any future outdoor stuff from.

As tech companies are the ones hosting much of the dissent, maybe these actions could be beneficial.

Well, I agree sort of, except what North Face wants is Facebook, et al to censor MORE, in particular they want Trump censored.

Agreed Bartlett, at first I said hmmm maybe a company with some balls...but no, they want to virtue signal to their millennials.

I'll never buy North Face.

North Face is just acting upon its internal market research. Nothing more, nothing less. Same thing every company does.

What is north face?



I jest, but that shows how much of their stuff I own.

Columbia is the same stuff but cheaper

They stuff is pretty useless here in FL

Hurricanes excepted... I'm actually moving to St John's County this Fall. I'll get a chance to wear a few jackets sitting in my closet here in South Pinellas County.

They don't me regulate, they mean CENSOR. Free speech is dead in America, if you speak against the collective you'll pay a HIGH economic price.

North Face. Patagonia. If you’re buying that crap you’re a millennial anyway. Just pandering to their base. Won’t get any money from me and for that matter never have.

Don't worry I help raise property values, pays taxes and require little in services.

St. Augustine and Nocatee are super hot growth areas right now

Internal market research went out with the turn of the century. There are some companies who's ecommerce and ad divisions are run by extremely demented social justice workers who shoot from the hip and act stupidly in a very public way, to the point its difficult for the higher ups to correct.


And thats the problem. The SJW's are reacting emotionally to how they think something should be, without giving any regard to the livelihood of everyone else at the company. They think of themselves as strategic thinkers, when they are the opposite. They are emotional reactors.

I think this is more accurate. And also, those departments lack diversity. They are group think.

Problem is the infrastructure and schools cant grow as fast. Nocatee is cool, just thought their price per square foot was out of whack for this area at the time.

Might be out of whack but the place is loaded with amenities. The values are holding up and they are still selling plenty of homes. Record sales in May and June despite Covid-19
