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."

Christian Pacifists Reinterpret Romans 13 After Tragic Animal Incidents

Fred and Peanut Become Latest Mascots for Justice In a surprising twist, Christian pacifists have taken a page from the revolutionary Presbyterians' book by reinterpreting Romans 13, following the tragic demise of Fred the squirrel and Peanut the raccoon at the hands of government officials. These furry martyrs have sparked a theological debate, as pacifists now argue that Romans 13 supports civil disobedience against unjust state actions. Fred and Peanut, beloved local mascots, were allegedly "neutralized" for causing minor disruptions in a public park. Their untimely deaths have become a rallying cry for pacifists, who argue that the state's actions were neither just nor necessary. In response, pacifists assert that Romans 13, traditionally seen as a call to obey governing authorities, actually mandates resistance when the state acts contrary to God's will. They emphasize Paul's call to "overcome evil with good" (Romans 12:21) as a directive to ch...

Men Named "David" More Likely to Suffer Identity Crisis

Matt Chandler, the lead pastor of Southern Village Church in Flower Mound, Texas, has shot to the evangelical spotlight in after preaching a sermon in which he proclaims that "You're not David!" to an unsuspecting captive audience. In doing so, however, he inadvertently caused a mass identity crisis among an unlikely, oddly-specific demographic: people who actually are named "David." One person, who commented on the condition of anonymity, said: "I've been called David my whole life. Now that I've been told I'm not David, I don't even know who I am anymore. I've started going by my middle name, but nobody's ever called me "Matthew" before and it's really taking some getting used to. My children look at me like I'm a stranger. My wife says she feels like she's sleeping with another man. I feel like a stranger in my own skin. I'm having an identity crisis. What do I do? We reached out to a local counselor for ...
