Why is Harley-Davidson dropping diversity initiatives after the right-wing anti-DEI campaign?

This…is not a healthy company with a bright future ahead.

Whenever they try to get new customers, they risk pissing off the dudes who were born to ride Donald Trump, or at least fellate him.

Big noisy eyewateringly expensive machines that make senior citizens feel like it’s still 1962.

Why do we exist, and why are we conscious?

All their existing customers shake their canes and whine about them “selling out.”

They sell obnoxiously, stupendously overpriced bikes to old white men who wear Donald Trump jackets.

What is their lifestyle?

Does any unofficial Roman Catholic card exist in the world to play? In Italy, Rome & the Vatican City, can practising Catholics get any discounts as a tourist, & / or privileged admission to certain sights, with different rules for non Catholics?

If Toyota were facing demographics that grim, they’d, you know, change their lineup and try to appeal to new customers.

My grandmother deeded me her house before she passed last year. Her son still lives there refusing to move. What steps should I take to have him removed?

They’re terrified to abandon these guys because they know these guys buy their bikes, at least until they go broke buying Trump shoes and NFTs.

The Geezer Brigade starts flinging their walkers about and posting angry diatribes on AOL.

Which is a better option, a love marriage or an arranged marriage in India?

Conservative old men who haven’t seen a movie since Dennis Hopper stopped being a leading Hollywood draw.

Harley-Davidson is facing some rather unfortunate demographic realities. If you look at their sales since the 1990s, they’re looking pretty grim:
