Man Gets Rich by Shorting the Stock of Every Company That Goes Woke Before Pride Month

A man from New York has made a fortune by shorting the stock of every company that goes woke before Pride Month. He claims that he has a foolproof strategy to predict which companies will suffer a backlash from their customers and investors for virtue signaling.

"I call it the 'woke-o-meter'," he said. "It's a simple formula that measures how much a company is pandering to the LGBTQ+ community and other social justice causes. The more they do, the more likely their stock will tank."

He explained that he uses a variety of indicators to calculate the woke-o-meter score for each company, such as:

- The number and frequency of rainbow-themed logos, products, and ads

- The amount and percentage of donations to LGBTQ+ organizations and charities

- The diversity and inclusion policies and initiatives

- The public statements and endorsements of LGBTQ+ celebrities and activists

- The level of backlash and criticism from conservative media and groups

He said that he then borrows shares of the companies with the highest woke-o-meter scores from his broker and sells them on the open market, hoping to buy them back at a lower price later. This is known as shorting a stock, a bearish stock position that bets on a stock's price decline.

He claims that his strategy has been very successful so far, as he has made millions of dollars by shorting the stock of companies such as:

- Starbucks, which changed its logo to a rainbow-colored mermaid and offered free coffee to anyone wearing a Pride pin

- Nike, which launched a collection of sneakers and apparel featuring the LGBTQ+ flag and slogans

- Disney, which featured its first openly gay character in a Marvel movie and hosted a Pride parade at its theme parks

- Coca-Cola, which released a limited-edition can with the words "Love is Love" and sponsored several Pride events

- Netflix, which added hundreds of LGBTQ+ movies and shows to its catalog and created a dedicated section called "Pride Month"

He said that he plans to continue his short-selling spree until the end of June, when Pride Month ends. He expects that many companies will revert to their normal logos, products, and ads, and that their stock prices will recover.

"I'm not against LGBTQ+ rights or anything," he said. "I'm just taking advantage of a market inefficiency. It's nothing personal, it's just business."

To Protect Last Political Allies from Trump, Biden Pardons Pilate, the Sanhedrin

Critics Say Presidential Clemency 2,000 Years Too Late In a shocking twist of historical revisionism, President Biden has issued a last-minute presidential pardon for Pontius Pilate and the Sanhedrin, effectively settling a 2,000-year-old legal dispute. The unprecedented move comes as Biden clears his presidential desk, seemingly determined to resolve theological legal matters that have been pending since the first century. "Sometimes, you've got to wash your hands of ancient history—literally," Biden reportedly quipped, making a clear reference to Pilate's infamous hand-washing gesture. The pardon documents hilariously cite "administrative oversight" and "bureaucratic complications" as primary reasons for the belated legal clemency. Religious scholars and historians are bewildered, with one anonymous theologian remarking, "Well, that's one way to end a presidency—by retroactively solving a crucifixion controversy." The White House pr...

Pride: Remembering Sodom & Gomorrah

Sodom and Gomorrah: The Original Pride Parade Gone Wrong As the calendar turns to June, rainbow flags and glitter will soon blanket city streets worldwide to celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride Month. But before you head out to party, let's take a moment to reflect on the very first recorded Pride parade that didn't go quite as planned - the ill-fated cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. For those rusty on their biblical history, Sodom and Gomorrah were neighboring municipalities around the Dead Sea renowned for their hospitality and...other proclivities. When two angels visited the cities incognito, the residents rolled out the welcome mat in a manner that would make modern swingers blush. Lot, a seemingly chill dude who just wanted to mind his own business, tried to protect the angels from the amorous townsfolk. But despite his pleas to "not act wickedly," the cities' citizens continued to pursue their unconventional interests with gusto befitting their reputation as the original ...
