Not analogous.
They didn’t cut off  his access to banking.

They just said you can’t use this brand, you have to use the common brand.

Oh, the indignity!!!
What's the difference - bloody picky tonight. So the power company didn't cut off his access to power - just from their "brand" of power. 

Same

No, being cut off, means you have no power.
That’s a significant issue.
He still has access to the same banking products, just without élite branding.
Pride is the only issue.

You do realise their are companies that just market power contracts - just like there are banks that just market banking services.

There is a massive distinction between having your power cutoff, to having your electricity account transferred to a less salubrious brand.
Which, if you look back, was pretty much my point about NF’s banking downgrade…

Dont blame the power company for not wanting that dangerous nutbag associated with their brand.

Bit like corporate sponsors dumping RA and being forced to be associated with the comments of Folau. Other sponsors out there willing to take the risk that RA could sign up to.

Where was your outrage at Disney, BudLight Target getting cancelled by RWNJ MAGA fools because of social stances?

DeSantis now trying to argue his war on woke isn't the reason Americans are asking who this nutter is and abandoning him in huge numbers.

PT sometimes I feel this relentless push for "wokeness" even trips you up occasionally. LOL

Been lots of casualties. For instance, the old Fiddler would never had gone into bat behind Rustys nutbaggery like he did last night.

Coutts is a private bank for the wealthy. They can do what they like. If you or I, maybe not BobBig smile, tried to open an account we wouldn't get in the front door.

Lets get one thing straight here, I have NEVER been right wing in the slightest, I may have been baiting and trolling whale in the past, it was fun and too easy, but I have never been right wing period.

"relentless push for wokeness"

Most people and that means the majority, couldn't really care less about some of the things you righty's think we go on about. Most normal progressives are just getting on with life and keeping themselves very informed, wokeness is something the right is more obsessed about.

Wokeness is just a word for scared rightards to channel their fears and insecurities through, saying something like "the world is going to woke" on whatever the issue is just a cover for "this scares me".

After such abuse there’s usually the feeble denial of what they really meant. No balls to own it and then they’ll trot out the old line “I was only joking “LOL

It's the double standards and hypocrisy that get me. If they practised what they preached they'd apologise and stop using certain words/ stereotypes etc etc. But no, that would take some integrity.
