Who knew "owning the libs" was a bad business plan?

My well-meaning parents asked me what 'woke' meant a few months back and I said "I can tell you what it used to mean but I can't tell you what it currently means".
It truly has lost all meaning.

It means antifa, or if you prefer, death panels or critical race theory. It means boogieman to Republicans, because they are all spiteful children.
I'm not sure I understand, but what even would be a 'woke' bank? I genuinely am not sure.
Like what exactly is a bank that shares 'conservative' values? I mean it's just a bank.

Wall Street? Liberal? Bahahahahahaha
They're always saying "Go woke, go broke". Yet the opposite continues happening.

They literally had a debit card made out of recycled bullets. But it didn't go so well.

"The app was aimed at people who saw Wall Street as too liberal"
LMAO. I wonder why it tanked...
That's like saying "The app was aimed at people who thought the sky was too yellow"

It was started by people who thought BlackRock — BlackRock — was too liberal for even paying lip service to diversity or environmental concerns, instead of just focusing on making money.
So yes.
Culture war brain rot is a thing.
There's a zero percent chance that antisemitism isn't part of why this exists.
Maybe I missed it, but did they say how many funds they had, and what happens to those funds? Surely due to the regulations most people wouldn't actually lose their money they may have deposited, right? I'm so used to seeing crypto bankruptcies where it's basically "lol your money is gone" that I don't know what happens for a more "traditional" bank like this.
With a little bit of googling, Glorifi is "a financial technology company, not a bank." Its banking stuff is with TransPecos Banks, which appears to be FDIC insured as far as I can tell.
It's insane that to make money off of these people just look around your house for common items and then think how you could tie it to guns.
"Oh you use a broom with a wooden handle. Well my Patriot Broom's handle isn't just red white and blue striped but it's made with the same rubberized grip that I'm used to on an AK 47." Sure it might have cost 69.99 but did I mention it's designed with colors I like in mind and it makes me think of a gun?"
What winning concept will these innovators come up with next?
Anti-woke toilet paper that's attached to a stick so that you don't have to make physical contact with your asshole and catch the gay? An anti-woke lumberyard where only women are allowed to interact with the product so that you never have to touch another man's wood? Oh shit, no, anti-woke glasses that are actually just two solid slabs placed in front of your eyes so that you don't need to see minorities and deal with forced diversity.

A lot of people have made bank that way. I think an actual bank was a step too far, though.
If wall street is too liberal, I wonder what is considered conservative for them? Full on the handmaid tale?
Wall Street being seen as too woke is definitely some alternate reality shit.
But yeah, saw this coming the moment it was announced.
