Companies backtrack on DEI — NOT COSTCO. Over the past year, huge corporations like Toyota, Meta, Molson Coors, John Deere, Walmart, Ford, Lowe’s and, most recently, McDonald’s, announced they would roll back diversity efforts. Last week, social media behemoth Meta — which owns Facebook and Instagram — announced it would reverse its content moderation strategy to align more with the will of Trump and of Elon Musk’s X.

These moves are expected to particularly harm transgender people and immigrants. The company also announced it — like Amazon — would drop many of its DEI efforts.
