Shameless Shell Releases Advertisement on International Women’s Day For Brand Promotion
This is corporate feminism.
The world’s biggest corporations and wealthiest oligarchs have taken up the cause of ‘women’s empowerment’ to advance their own interests, seeking to distract shallow cultural liberals from their impact on society at large with empty virtue signaling.
A new advertisement from global fossil fuel company Shell takes woke capitalism to a whole new level, using the incidence of International Women’s Day on Sunday to promote their image-challenged brand.
The ad features the faces of various women, accompanied by vague platitudes. It seems as if the commercial could be something from an NGO or perhaps the United Nations, but it becomes clear it’s a shameless plug for a corporate agenda when the contraction ‘she’ll’ in merged into ‘Shell.’
Watch here:
Shell is taking the empty gesture a step further, actually “changing the name” of their company to ‘She’ll’ for the event of International Women’s Day. The multi-billion dollar petrochemical company apparently believes that “small gestures can motivate and deliver big gestures.”
Twitter users reacted to the ad with dismay and cynicism, some apparently believing that the ad was so vacuous and shallow that it had to be a parody of woke capitalism. A British comedy group even falsely claimed that they staged the ad campaign as a prank. But it is in fact a real advertisement, commissioned for Shell by corporate ad agency Wunderman Thompson.
For those who care, The Yes Men are lying. This is a real campaign from Shell and agency Wunderman Thompson. I just spoke to the ad agency to confirm.

Royal Dutch Shell continues to land in the top 10 of greatest annual carbon polluters, every year. A study of 2017 emissions revealed the global British-Dutch company to be the ninth largest polluter in the world.
Perhaps one day the progressive activists of the neoliberal era will realize that the social causes they’ve fought tooth and nail for are orchestrated and organized from the top of western societies by the global elite and massive corporations.

Denver Judge Refuses to Lower Bond on NBC Leftist Shooter Matthew Dolloff
Dolloff is staying in jail.
A Denver, Colorado judge declined to reduce a bail bond on an unlicensed security guard who shot and killed a conservative demonstrator in the city in the employ of an NBC News affiliate channel.
A judge overseeing Matthew Dolloff is citing the extensive film and photo evidence capturing Dolloff’s shooting of Patriot Prayer activist Lee Keltner in Denver’s Civic Center. He’s citing the evidence as cause to keep Dolloff’s bond at $500,000.
“The evidence of which the Court is presently aware appears to show that, at the time of the shooting, there was no danger from the victim that placed the Defendant or anyone else in imminent risk of death or great bodily injury, and that the victim was backing away from the Defendant holding a can of mace,” wrote District Court Judge John Madden IV in a six-page order.
“The interaction between the Defendant and the victim, and the shooting itself, are captured by a series of clear, detailed, still-frame photographs mostly separated by fractions of a second. The precision with which the moment of the charged homicide is captured is unprecedented in the Court’s experience,” declared Judge Madden in a ruling likely to dampen Dolloff’s legal claim that he acted in self-defense when he shot Lee Keltner in the head. Dolloff had engaged in a brief scuffle with the Keltner, in which the latter slapped him in the face with an open hand before stepping back.
Judge Madden’s citation of the strong evidence against Dolloff’s claims of self-defense indicates that the likelihood of a conviction in a case is strong. He was formally charged with second-degree murder earlier this month, with Denver Police holding him in county jail
Big League Politics has revealed that Dolloff is a staunch ideological leftist, posting often on social media about his contemptuous views of Donald Trump supporters.
