A slide has leaked from a Goodyear diversity training which brands “Blue Lives Matter,” “All Lives Matter” and “MAGA” attire “unacceptable,” while deeming Black Lives Matter and LGBT slogans to be “acceptable.”The leaked slide is of their “zero tolerance” policy towards support for police or conservative values.According to a report from WIBW, the person who took the photo of the slide said that it was presented at a Topeka plant by an area manager and says it came from their corporate office out of Akron, Ohio.

Maybe it's time to say "the life of Goodyear doesn't matter". We the people can determine what happens here.
I can't call for a boycott here but I can suggest that there are a whole lot of other tire makers than Goodyear !!!!

We've always thought they were overpriced and overrated. We've been buying Cooper Tires for decades.

In 40 years of driving, I only remember one set of Goodyear tires on my car(s), and that because the tires came with the vehicle at the time of purchase. When it was time to replace them, it was sayonara. Their tires are not that great. Like their diversity policy.

The best tires I ever owned (along with the worst) carried the Goodyear name. So buying the brand was a bit of a crap-shoot that required a fair amount of research before laying out the cash. Now they've made it a bit easier by taking themselves out of contention for my dollars.

Their board of directors is going to be facing some really bad numbers next quarter.

Three out of the last four sets of tires I've gotten have been Goodyear. No more. Too bad, too -- they're pretty good tires for a pretty good price. Maybe it's time to go back to Cooper.

Banning all political slogans and logos in the workplace is entirely appropriate (and desired, to my mind). But singling out some and allowing others is not. We buy Thomason tires anyway. Excellent tires at a great price.

Our family actually does buy Goodyear tires, and have for years.
But, as I just informed them, never again as long as this blatant discrimination exists in their company.
Like other posters, I agree that banning all mottos is actually a very good idea. But just banning some, and allowing others, based solely on a political agenda, is purely evil!!!!!

I understand Goodyear has since tried to tapdance their way out of the issue.

All police forces should tell the auto manufacturers who supply their new vehicles "No Goodyear (owned by Sumitomo of Japan) tires", and stop purchasing replacements made by Goodyear. Ditto all government agencies. Remember - Black Tires Matter!
