When will companies learn that if they go woke, they will go broke?
People are sick and tired of being told how to think or feel about any particular subject by companies that are supposed to provide a service to the public.
Oh, and then on top of it all, they want their employees to believe precisely the same way, or they face retaliation.
Now, does that sound very tolerant of them? No, it doesn’t, and it goes completely against everything that this country was founded on, but that is an article for a different day.
Thankfully, people are standing up and pushing back against these bullying tactics, and we are seeing some major wins being scored for Americans.
The latest win to add to the column is for a former flight attendant who sued her former employer, Southwest Airlines and was awarded $5 million from a federal jury in Texas.
The claim stemmed from when the airline fired the flight attendant over her stance on abortion in a lawsuit dating back to 2017.
Charlene Carter says Southwest fired her over social media posts regarding abortion that dissented from a union.
“Carter criticized her union’s President, Audrey Stone, for attending the Women’s March in Washington, D.C. – The Women’s March received funding from Planned Parenthood,” The Gateway Pundit noted.
Carter posted on Facebook at the time:
“This is what you supported during your paid leave with others at the Women’s March in D.C.,” Carter wrote in one Facebook message to Stone, according to the lawsuit. “… You truly are despicable in so many ways.”
Carter also sent messages to the union leader expressing intent to support a recall effort against Stone.
Southwest managers told Carter she had to attend a meeting regarding her Facebook posts, and the airline questioned why she posted messages regarding her pro-life stance.
According to the lawsuit, stone claimed to have been “harassed” by Carter online, and Southwest fired her a week later.
Carter sued after her firing and won.
A federal judge has ordered that fired @SouthwestAir flight attendant Charlene Carter’s religious discrimination lawsuit against the company and its union would proceed to trial, after the judge denied a request to dismiss the lawsuit. https://t.co/UvkZeN2VHx

“Today is a victory for freedom of speech and religious beliefs. Flight attendants should have a voice, and nobody should be able to retaliate against a flight attendant for engaging in a protected speech against her union,” Carter told FOX Business in a Friday statement.
“I am so humbled and thankful for today’s decision and for everyone who’s supported me these past five years, including the National Right to Work Foundation.”
