I'm hoping this will break liberal fantasies about trusting certain corporations, but it probably won't. It'll push more suburban white liberals into the maw of being reactionary.
Is it accelerationist of me to want comfortable suburban liberals to just become conservatives already? They're already most of the way there and it would help more properly delineate where the political divides really are.
I have worked for companies that have rules stating no logos/brand names could be noticeable. So a black pair of shoes that had a Nike check on it would be considered unacceptable. I always worried the dickies emblem on my work pants might cause issue. White socks were an issue which since you are wearing long pants and shoes... shouldn't even be noticeable. All tattoos had to be covered, no facial hair allowed, and no piercings. Hair color must be a natural color.
I think the concept behind BLM is good, but I would have never thought wearing a mask with their logo on it would be allowable work attire.
