CV NEWS FEED // Conservative filmmaker Robby Starbuck on Thursday revealed that automobile giant Nissan had decided to ditch its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies.
“Big news,” Starbuck wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “Nissan is ending a number of woke policies today. I can now exclusively tell you what’s changing and how it happened.”
Starbuck explained in a video how he had reached out to Nissan executives to discuss their policies and propose changes in order to develop a better work environment. According to Starbuck, Nissan executives responded favorably to his inquiry.
“Weeks ago I informed execs at @NissanUSA @nissan that I was doing a story on wokeness there. Instead, we had productive conversations about how to fix this,” Starbuck wrote.

“Below are the changes they committed to,” he continued:
• Surveys: Nissan will no longer participate in the HRC’s woke Corporate Equality Index nor will they participate in any 3rd party survey that has a political activism angle.
• Funding for events: Nissan will review future funding of events to ensure that sponsorships align with brand standards and business priorities. This means no more funding for Pride events that expose kids to sexually inappropriate content like the San Francisco Pride event they sponsored recently which exposed kids to extremely inappropriate content.
• Supplier diversity and hiring: No quotas for hiring, promotions, or diverse suppliers. Focus is now on merit and performance.
• Trainings: Nissan will only require training related to the core business going forward. This means no more forced DEI or LGBTQ trainings.

According to Starbuck, Nissan was “not as far gone as other companies.” Starbuck has previously been involved in decisions to change DEI policies in numerous other major companies, including Ford, John Deere, Harley-Davidson, Lowe’s, and Tractor Supply.
The effects of changing DEI in the workplace are far-reaching. Starbuck noted that his team had effectively changed policies at companies worth over two trillion dollars.
“Our campaigns are now so effective that we’re getting the biggest companies on earth to change their policies without me even posting a story outlining their woke policies,” Starbuck explained. “Companies can clearly see that America wants normalcy back. The era of wokeness is dying right in front of our eyes. The landscape of corporate America is quickly shifting to sanity and neutrality. We are the trend, not the anomaly anymore. “
