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

But Harley is trapped. They’re a lifestyle brand, not a motorcycle company. When you look at them as a lifestyle brand rather than a motorcycle company, a lot of things start to make sense.

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

Harley geezers love spreading contempt for smaller, lighter Japanese “rice burners,” after they’ve taken their Geritol and used their walkers to hobble to the front porch for another rousing afternoon of “hey you kids get off my lawn.”

Why did my ex-narcissist move so fast with his new supply marriage engagement moving in, etc.?

What is their lifestyle?

What happens if they build new bikes?

So what do you do if your existing customer base of geezers and sycophants hates the idea of you selling to a new demographic? If you’re Harley, you keep selling to the old demographic and hope for a miracle.

It’s been over a month since I stopped taking sertraline but why do I still feel side effects like brain zaps and anxiety mood changes? The root cause of anxiety it’s your thinking and I perfectly master that better than before so it’s hard lately.

Next year, things will turn around. Next year for sure. We just have to hang on until then. Next year.

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. Millennials think Harley Davidson is a joke, mainly because Harley Davidson is a joke. Gen Z is like “Harley who? You mean the Joker’s girlfriend? Margot Robbie? Yeah, she’s hot.”

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.

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

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.

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

They need new customers or they’re done. Their existing customer base is aging out and, well, dying. Millennials don’t like their motorcycles, but Harley has long been a company that flat-out refuses to change their products to match what people want; they’ve long believed they should make whatever they want to make and people should just buy that.

How would you feel about your husband allowing a mutual friend to see you naked and exposed to show off your pussy?

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

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

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

If a guy is attracting a bunch of what he believes to be "ugly" women, is he crushing the dating game?

What is their product?

The demographics for Harley-Davidson are just as grim as their sales figures: the average Harley customer is over 50, and the average age of a registered Harley motorcycle is about 10 years.

What happens if they try to attract new customers?

According to the Gita, how do I abandon fruits of my karma? Should I donate my whole salary and stay hungry?
