Feel-Good Friday: "Erased" - A message to woke corporate America edition

I watched an ad produced by a watch company this morning and it is everything that effective pushback on woke corporations supporting transgender athletes in women’s sports competitions should be. It is called ERASED – A message to woke corporate America (Nike and Budweiser). It’s good.

I stumbled across it as I was watching the Chicks on the Right this morning on their YouTube broadcast. They, like me, are disgusted that more people are not speaking up for women in sports. In my case, I am especially angry that other women are not speaking up. Riley Gaines is a strong voice but she is only one person. She shouldn’t be expected to fight the good fight alone.

One thing that will help is for companies to speak out against canceling women in sports by producing ads that deliver a bit of reality to their woke counterparts. This ad is narrated by a young woman who was raised by a father who supported her love of running wholeheartedly. It’s done by a watch company, Egard. Doing a little research into the company, I found its CEO is Ilan Muallem Srulovicz, an actor and director. He is known for Walking Dead and the movie Deepwater Horizon. And, he’s in to martial arts.

A quick look at his Twitter account shows that he isn’t new to speaking up for what is right. He goes into the lion’s den (progressive Young Turks, for example) as well as Fox News.

In this video, Ilan is tackling police reform:

And, here he talks about speaking out in general after the “What is a woman?” controversy.

From that interview, we learn he spoke out against Gillette’s toxic masculinity campaign.

Isn’t his attitude refreshing? We need more businessmen and women to do the same. He sounds like a conservative. What’s not to like?

As I wrote about yesterday, in Biden’s America, the progressives have gotten so out of control that if someone dares to speak up and defend biological women in sports, then they are bullying transgenders. That’s absurd. Women and men (and companies) have to be willing to speak up and say enough is enough. If not, it is the end of women’s sports. Women cannot compete with men. Men deny a place for a biological woman on a team or a scholarship for school. It’s just not right. I don’t want to deny a transgender athlete the opportunity to compete, but not against women. Transgenders should compete against other transgenders. That is sportsmanship.

What was Title IX for, if not to protect a female opportunity to play sports? Where are Billie Jean King and Chrissie Evert? What about women golfers and gymnasts? Soccer star, now retiring, Megan Rapinoe has come out in support of transgender inclusion in women’s sports. Easy for her when she’s retiring and already had her career. How would she feel if a man was brought on to play against her team? What about the biological woman who would deny a spot on the team? They should all be supporting women and that begins with saying no to transgender women in women’s sports.

Kudos to Mr. Srulovicz. He should be thanked for fighting the good fight.
