Let’s start with a question. If you’re a woke stock market index that tracks the performance of 500 large companies on listed exchanges, and the CEO of one of those companies turns out to be less wokified than acceptable — by your standards — even though his company is the leading manufacturer of “environmentally-friendly” electric vehicles, what do you do? Simple answer:
Standard & Poor’s will take the company off their S&P ESG — Environmental, Society and Governance — 500 Index and place it in a company that abides by the line of wokification.
The world’s leading maker of electric vehicles has been cut from S&P’s index for environmentally conscious investors due to flaws in its business conduct and, ironically, low-carbon strategy. https://t.co/vF470Tj3A7

Forbes reported that Tesla was removed from the ESG 500 Index of environmentally conscious investors because of “flaws” in its business conduct and “aspects concerning the company’s low carbon strategy.” This is completely transparent nonsense. Elon Tesla was rightly scolded by Forbes for his bizarre move declaring that ESG is fraud. ”
Exxon is rated top ten best in world for environment, social & governance (ESG) by S&P 500, while Tesla didn’t make the list!
ESG is a scam. It has been weaponized by phony social justice warriors.

Margaret Dorn, the North American head of S&P ESG 500 Indices, just spoke out and, as Forbes has transcribed it, said the obvious.
While Tesla is working to reduce the number of fuel-powered vehicles on the roads, it still falls short when viewed through an ESG lens.
Dorn’s statement is as absurd as it can be in terms of prioritization. It was revealed by the brain of a former Certified financial planner. Tesla is not eligible for the ESG 500 Index because of Elon Musk’s efforts to end censorship, suppression, and censorship against conservative thought.
Forbes considers the following absurd:
Since the inception of Tesla, Musk has been a leader in clean transportation. Tesla has been the most active manufacturer in encouraging electric vehicles to replace their fossil-fuelled trucks and cars.
Musk took the opportunity to poke fun at S&P with a Twitter meme:

It’s not surprising that Musk is critical of left-wing censorship, the Democrat Party in particular, but he also predicted that he would vote Republican because he was dissatisfied with the narrative and tactics of the Democrat Party.
I voted Democrat in the past because they were (mostly) the kindness party.
They are now the party that hates and divides. I can’t support them anymore. Instead, I’ll vote Republican.
See their dirty tricks against you now
The Musk vs. Leftists tale continues. Now the question is: Are there enough popcorns?
In the past I voted Democrat, because they were (mostly) the kindness party.
But they have become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican.
Now, watch their dirty tricks campaign against me unfold … 🍿
