Okay, for our last subject of the episode, I wanted to return us to BizPakReview, the land of ads and more ads.
For this article, I saw bikers feel used after Harley Davidson goes totally woke.
Quote, it's branding suicide.
This is something that was brought to my attention on Facebook and I've seen it elsewhere.
They're mad at Harley Davidson again, Tony.
Harley Davidson went woke again.
I didn't know it was possible to get even more woke than Harley Davidson already was, but they did it.
Yeah, you know, where I saw this first, and I think that's why it's, it's, it says a lot about why the government was so ready to get rid of TikTok.
Cause I saw this on where the real bikers hang out, where the real, where the real hogs are, where they're really speaking to them.
I saw this on TikTok.
Yeah.
You know, with the real heads.
So what did you see on TikTok?
What's funny about it is I couldn't find what they were mad about.
I just saw them getting mad.
And a lot of them doing like petitioning other motorcycle companies for like a good bike and bragging about how much money they spent on their Harleys.
Hey, listen, Indian motorcycle.
This one guy was like, listen, Indian, this guy right here, I had overnighted to me.
You go ahead and get to me and I'm going to buy a motorcycle from you.
I'm not going to ride this anymore.
Why do you have to make a TikTok to buy a motorcycle?
Is that part of it now?
Do the dealerships have so much power now that they force you to do that?
I think, yeah, I think you have to do a public proclamation for the, for the motorcycle brand you're looking at.
Yeah.
And then a couple of days later I was in front of this guy at the grocery store and he was wearing a shirt that said, it said, like I said, black Harley Davidson owners.
And me and him are laughing about it because I, again, I didn't, I still didn't, I still don't even know what they did to make him mad.
I have no idea.
I'm excited to find out.
And he was like, he's like, man, I'm already seeing him on sale for like good prices and I'm loving it.
Oh shit.
Like let, let, let him sell their bikes to me.
Yeah.
Keep going.
Whoa.
Yeah.
I love it.
It's fucking hilarious to buy a Harley David, have a new Harley Davidson and complain about anything.
Right?
Should not be allowed to complain about anything.
No, no.
This is another great example of like... Triggered much?
A new Harley Davidson is what?
$30,000?
Easily.
If you're still buying them, you are the sucker.
If you're still buying new Harley Davidsons... Yes.
You don't have real problems.
No sympathy.
Um...
Pretty fucking funny to spend $30,000, $40,000, $60,000 on a motorcycle and then read on Twitter that actually a Harvey Davidson branch sponsored a drag show at a library or whatever.
And now you have to be mad about that.
Like you, you already gave them $40,000.
They're laughing at you.
I don't, I don't know what you, what leverage You think you have over them?
Yeah, you already paid them.
Exactly.
They don't get that.
They have no idea how anything works.
It's so funny.
I mean, I bet a lot of these fuckers do buy a new bike every five or ten years.
But if, you know, if Harley Davidson goes out of business for it, I'm OK with that.
I think they should die on their principles.
I think Harley Davidson should die on their feet.
Sponsoring drag shows.
Let me read here.
Harley-Davidson is reportedly facing growing backlash over the motorcycle manufacturer's decision to go quote woke.
Aren't Harley-Davidson, isn't Harley-Davidson like owned by a German company now anyway?
I think they're owned by a European company because I remember us covering backlash over Harley-Davidson Years and years ago.
Yeah.
I think maybe the owner made an anti-Trump statement at some point as well.
They've gone woke several times.
I thought maybe they were going to stop making gas motorcycles.
I would understand them being upset about that.
I thought that's what was happening here.
Yeah, I think they, like, changed the engine to make them quieter, too, or something, and that was going woke.
The company's decision to go, quote, woke became apparent in a Twitter slash X post published last month by conservative activist Robbie Starbuck.
In the tweet, Starbuck highlighted multiple ways in which the company embraced, quote, woke politics.
And I have that tweet right here.
It's time to expose Harley-Davidson.
Ad Harley-Davidson has been one of the most beloved brands in America, but recently on CEO Jochen Zeit's watch, they've gone totally woke.
Here's some of what we found.
Openly supports the Equality Act, which would allow men into girls' bathrooms, sports, and locker rooms.
Also tampons.
I heard they're going to allow, Harley-Davidson is going to allow tampons in all bathrooms.
I heard Harley-Davidson is going to put a little, a little tampon carrier on other bikes that you can't take off.
HD funded an all ages pride event that featured a quote rage room next to drag queen story time.
This I loved.
Okay.
You know what a rage room is, Tony?
Yeah.
I think this is, I think that this is smart.
I think that every drag show should have a rage room next door.
I think that's the way we can maybe send the people who are so mad about drag queens to the rage room.
Um, I saw something else, them getting mad about rage rooms.
But I was like multitasking and I didn't stop to investigate.
I was wondering why they would be mad about Rage Rooms, because it's such like a Spike TV style business venture, like next to the axe throwing bar, you got your Rage Room.
You know, like why would the right ever be mad about this?
Well, I figured it out now.
Do you know why?
Okay, this is my guess.
Yeah.
A rage room is like a safe space.
Okay, good guess.
That's not what I was going to say.
I think it's a reference to the Trans Day of Rage.
Oh, okay.
Remember that?
Yeah.
Like, there was like a Trans Day of Rage to, you know, protest anti-trans violence.
And the right wing Took that and combined that with that one shooter who may or may not have been a trans man.
I don't remember what the final verdict was on that one.
The shooter who shot up the Christian school, shot the kids and stuff.
They tried to say tie that to like trans rage.
Yeah, that makes sense.
It's like, it's one of the things, oh, I'm surprised they know about it at all, because it was like a positive, but because of the way it was, the wording is, I'm sure they're going to latch onto it and be like, how was rage anything but violent?
Right.
Yeah.
That was like the social media campaign was Trans Day of Rage.
I mean, there's probably several.
I don't know.
I don't know enough about it to, like, speak authoritatively on it.
There was probably, like, several versions of whatever, you know, whatever they were trying to do with that organizing.
But yeah, a lot of people are trying to tie that to like, you know, they'll say like every every mass shooters trans now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No matter what, that's the way to go.
That's part of the same meme.
That's part of the same meme is that like trans people are too angry to be allowed to have guns or whatever.
I think that's what they think a rage room is.
I think they think a rage room is like a trans, like a safe space, maybe Tony, but like a, like let your rage, they probably have like cis effigies up that you could smash a microwave on their head.
