"WOKE" Silicon Valley Bank was far more interested in running LGBT programs than working to minimize exposure risk, and when word began to circulate that SVB was being run by woke idiots, depositors demanded their money back, leading to a bank collapse. As Zero Hedge reports, "the bank's head of risk management for Europe, Africa and the Middle East devoted a chunk of her time to various LGBTQ+ programs."

While risk warning signs should have been obvious, the left-leaning bank was apparently far more interested in appeasing gays, lesbians and transgenders than in actually running a bank that wouldn't collapse. The bank brags in its own documents, "We have a Chief Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Officer, an executive-led DEI Steering Committee and Employee Resource Groups with executive sponsors focused on these objectives."

Get woke. Go broke.
