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

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.

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

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.

Do very hot men ever feel attracted to an ugly woman? Why?

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.

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.

What is the difference between "eher" and " lieber" in German? Are the two synonyms? If yes, then which one is the most used?

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

What happens if they build new bikes?

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.”

How did the use of cows change in Indian culture over time? Is the value of cattle still important in modern times?

What is their product?

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

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

Why can't NASA just bite the bullet and launch a plainly simple mission, audited by flat earther peers start to finish that definitively proves to even the smallest minds that the earth is an oblong spheroid, and not flat?

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.”

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.

Typical Harley-Davidson customer

What are some mind-blowing facts that sound unreal but are actually true?

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

All their existing customers shake their canes and whine about them “selling out.”

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

The International Boxing Association said that Khelif and Lin competing in Paris Olympics were disqualified from the tournament for testing positive for XY chromosomes which give an unfair advantage in the women’s division. What do you think?

What happens if they try to attract new customers?

What is their lifestyle?

They sell obnoxiously, stupendously overpriced bikes to old white men who wear Donald Trump jackets.
