A new report spotlights businesses at risk “woke” Americans can take preventive action against companies that promote ideologies and not profit and revenue by pushing ideologies.
The “Corporate Bias Ranking” Report 1792 Exchange is a non-profit organization that evaluated policies, practices and other relevant criteria from more than 1000 companies in order to determine whether a firm would cancel a client contract or refuse services to customers because of a difference of ideological beliefs.
The 1792 Exchange determined that 12 per cent of the companies included in its analysis were at “high risk” Some big names, including Google, Best Buy and Amazon, are known for going woke. Three quarters of all firms were found to have a “medium risk” Of going woke, and 58% of businesses were rated as “lower risk.”

“We recommend that folks … find the companies that they patronize, print off the report, walk into the office, the local branch, and if it’s a high-risk company, asked [sic] politely to calmly speak with the manager and say, ‘Why are you doing this? Are you going to cancel me?’ And if you’re a business or a nonprofit, ask to have the terms of your agreement changed,” He stated.
“If it’s a low-risk company, go into that office, thank them, encourage your friends to shop there, and we believe that market forces will work … If we change behavior, our behavior, the companies will change their behavior.”
Scoring Criteria, Protection of Freedom of Speech
The 1792 Exchange report ranks companies based upon six criteria. These include whether the firm has denied customers or vendors services in the past due to their religious or political beliefs, whether their employment policies do not protect against discrimination based only on religious or political ideologies, and whether they support hateful causes with their corporate reputation.
The group points out that there are ideological cancellations at an “alarming rate.” As an example, it cites the chief executive of software firm Tripwire, who wrote in a tweet that he supported Texas’s abortion restrictions as he was a “pro-life gamer.”
The company was then threatened by suppliers and partners, who warned them that they would terminate their contracts if the CEO continued to work for them. Tripwire soon fired its CEO.
“While powerful public and private companies continue their cancellation campaigns against those who dissent from secular progressive ideology, we remain committed to protecting the freedoms we cherish and need,” The organization .
“We must fix and protect our economic system, which has lifted millions out of poverty and created unprecedented prosperity, and restore viewpoint neutrality.”
Woke, ESG Discrimination
Fitzpatrick identifies environmental, social and governance policies (ESG) as one tool that can be used to transform a company to a woke corporate culture.
Numerous Republican states are passing laws to protect businesses from the infiltration by woke ESG ideas. The Texas Legislature passed in 2021 a law prohibiting public contracts with public companies that discriminate against firearms.
Recently, Citigroup was removed as a potential underwriter of $3.4 billion worth of municipal bonds in the state because of the bank’s opposition to firearms businesses.
U.S. citizens also don’t want businesses to mix politics with their operations. A poll conducted by the Trafalgar Group, and the Convention of States Action (COSA), revealed that nearly 80 percent of likely voter respondents said they are more likely to purchase from a company with a neutral political affiliation if given the choice. This number includes more that 75 percent of both Republican and Democratic voters.
“This is a blowback that’s coming,” Mark Meckler (COSA president) Telled The Epoch Times. “It’s coming big time against all this woke politics in business. It’s not even that folks want their companies to reflect their politics; they want their companies, the people they buy from, to just ignore politics.”
