In a Dec. 19 X post, Starbuck outlined how "Nissan is ending a number of woke policies today." He indicated that the car company agreed to make changes after the conservative activist told the business of his intention to do a report on "wokeness" there.

"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," he announced. "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."

Starbuck also highlighted how Nissan was planning to abandon "quotas for hiring, promotions or diverse suppliers," meaning that "Focus is now on merit and performance." He also reported that the company would no longer subject employees to DEI or LGBT-related trainings.
