On Monday morning, as Streiff reported, an organization called Consumers First published information regarding a partnership between State Farm and The GenderCool Project to “have ‘550 agents and employees’ nationwide donate a 3-book bundle about Being Transgender, Inclusive and Non-Binary to their ‘local teacher, community center or library of their choice.'” (snip) Understandably, the news upset many of State Farm’s customers, and they made their feelings known. The insurance giant has now ended their partnership with The GenderCool Project

The article says that Soto who entered into this program was a mid-to-lower level employee in Florida - far removed from the headquarters in Illinois. Explain how an employee this low on the totem pole was able to engineer a nationwide program??? I am calling BS on this.

Our response must be more serious than just calling/emailing State Farm to express displeasure. They should suffer financially by losing actual customers else they're likely to try some other end around to promote perversion. Other businesses need to see real monetary harm as a certainty if they try any such shenanigans and say 'No' to the Alphabet crowd.

Can’t any of these people read the room? Where do they have their heads (rhetorical question)?

That was quick. I too was going to talk with our SF agent. Very serious conversation planned.
I imagine Jose Soto will go poof! As in Gone.

If in fact they do not end this insanity, I will personally call State Farm and change companies.

What sort of a badly run mess lets a "mid-to-lower level employee" destroy the company's entire stock of good will built up over many decades?

whoever says the "people" are powerless in our country should just take a look at this item because this demonstrates how powerful the "people" can really be, when they get involved in an issue they believe in, keep it up, everyone, and make Thomas Jefferson proud

I vividly remember the era when Phil Donahue would cry his little crocodile tears over gaybashing. The homos have had a good 50 year run but it’s all about to collapse. Acceptance of phaggotry has been forced upon society but it never stopped being an abomination. Fox News is as gay as it gets but pay no price for their phaggotry. Even the Great MAGA King loves his phaggotry. Who are these conservatives who suddenly don’t love their 24/7 homosexual propaganda? They seem to love watching it on Fox News.

Poster # 5, And a side of ranch. Never had State Farm but had Progressive and they sucked so they got dropped. I did like the old Jake from State Farm commercial where the husband was up late at night talking to the White Jake and his wife thinking he was talking to a girlfriend. It's rare that you see a commercial where the wife is the fool but it was funny nonetheless. State Farm is another company that found out too late that going woke is not a good business model.

Be aware, though. They’re still going to ‘explore other opportunities’. They just got caught this time.
And somebody please, please tell me the business purpose of a Chief Diversity Officer? Not the wokety-woke purpose, but how a CDO lines up with the actual mission of a company?

After 40 years as an independent agent( representing many different companies) I can tell you that if an insurance carrier is big enough to advertise nationally, it is too large and too cumbersome to be of value. Better to find a regional company for better service and better rates. Independent agencies generally represent these.

Same here, #19. 43 years in the business. We had a fine group of regional companies and I still have my personal insurance with one of them. Great people.
