They didn't capitulate. They were mostly faking it all along, friend. It made for good profit at the time and to get good Blackrock or Vanguard investment money. This is why despite putting rainbows in X, or FB, or YT, or LinkedIn profiles in the USA or in some Western countries, no company ever did that in any profile outside the West. It was all for show... and money. If they actually believe it they would have done so across the board. Yet they didn't. They were just hoping most people wouldn't notice. Many did. There was a meme RE: this floating around from years ago, too.
