I find it odd that excluding religious groups is now considered good ethics.

- thundergolfer 8y agoCan you explain what you're referring to with "excluding religious groups"?
- javagram 8y agoThe tweet in the article states that Patagonia is now excluding religious groups https://twitter.com/binnaskim/status/1112731360244961283 https://twitter.com/binnaskim/status/1112731360244961283
- thundergolfer 8y agoOh thanks for the heads up. Seems entirely reasonable to exclude religious groups who promote anti-environmentalism. They're not blanket excluding religious groups.
- adamparsons 8y agoReligion and conservatism do tend to be pretty aligned, and this seems to be about being a more progressive brand or something
- craftyguy 8y agoI don't.
- sonnyblarney 8y agoI don't think it's 'ethics' - rather than they are just trying to avoid any kind of controversy. Let's get real folks: it's just a totally synthetic fleece in a totally commodity package. There's nothing really special about Patagonia. It's just a brand. I'd buy it because I like the design, possibly, not because of their corporate positioning / PR spin.
