Netflix Goes Scorched Earth on Woke Employees
By Bonchie | May 13, 2022 8:00 AM ET

When you go woke, you run the risk of going broke, and apparently, Netflix is pulling the ripcord before the streaming giant good and fully faceplants.

Following a financial report that saw its stock price plummet 37 percent in late April, Netflix is now moving to adjust its culture and reengage its frustrated audience. A new “culture memo” dealing with “artistic expression” has been sent out, and it’s clearly a shot at the woke staffers who have been sandbagging the company.

Excerpts come via The Daily Wire.

Quote
    “If you’d find it hard to support our content breadth, Netflix may not be the best place for you,” the memo states, later adding that employees may be required to work on projects that they “perceive to be harmful” and that if they have a hard time accepting their work assignment, they might want to consider working somewhere else.

    “Entertaining the world is an amazing opportunity and also a challenge because viewers have very different tastes and points of view. So we offer a wide variety of TV shows and movies, some of which can be provocative,” the new section reads, later adding, “we support the artistic expression of the creators we choose to work with” and that “we let viewers decide what’s appropriate for them, versus having Netflix censor specific artists or voices.”

It's a little disappointing to see what passes for a backbone these days, but at least Netflix is showing something more than supine, spineless submission to the woke-fascists.

Yeah their content has still sucked for the last couple of years as far as I'm concerned, of course your mileage may vary. All I'm waiting for is the new season of Stranger Things and then it's adios to Netflix. Somehow I think that this scorched Earth release of theirs will end up all show and now go unless more than bottom feeder employees are shown the exit.

Everyone in my house has been waiting endlessly for the next season of Stranger Things.

It is quite literally the only subscription I pay for, and I hardly even go there anymore except to be disappointed.

But I do not see this memo as being against the woke - Not necessarily anyway - It works just as logically that it would be attacking people rebelling against the woke direction Netfilx has taken.

That makes so much sense it almost baffles me and makes me think it is some sort of trick.

Did they get a new board of directors?
