ESG has become the latest bugaboo of the Batshit Right. A few corporations have figured out that some folks; ie Blue State Liberal types, are more inclined to do business with them if they market themselves as environmentally conscious. If a company invests some money in alternative energy, it’s not a bad thing even if it isn’t that big a deal. Well, out in Conservo-land, it is a bad thing; a real Bad Thing. In certain circles, Big Corporations that provide spouses benefits for same sex couple, include abortion and birth control in their Insurance coverage, and now support alternative energy are Bad. Obviously, if they pander to the dreaded Liberals, they don’t respect us. Actually, unlike garden variety Republicans, populist types seem to really hate Big Corporations.

While this seems crazy, a lot of politicians have picked up on it. De Santini has declared himself “enemy of woke businesses”. Now the folks of Louisiana are doing him one better.
