Companies have always thought of bad PR as "one day events" and "people will forget about it so it's fine to keep doing it" has long been how they behave that resulted in the situations we are in today.
Divest.WTF is about giving stakeholders in our society like you and I a voice, because stakeholder capitalism would not work when stakeholders don't have a platform raise our concerns and make our votes count.
The site is very simple right now. You can tag a tweet as a reason why someone should want to divest from a company and a page like this will be created for you to share and raise awareness.
I'm hoping to add the ability to see trending divest calls and a company specific page so by the time earning calls come we can find find the issues again and trend the issues them via social media since since that's when most people are following individual companies.
Would love any feedback, questions and advice on how we can make this better!
