You won't find a large corporation that isn't doing this shit. The entirety of our culture has been infected by it, thanks to the prodigious propaganda machine.

The propaganda pressure would not exist without the State, these corporations would only have their customers to answer to; not the potential threat of investigations/hearings/regulations etc... when they piss off the wrong suit.

You vastly underestimate how much the people running these companies believe in this stuff. I'm in tech, most people in the C-suite would happily give up profit for activism. And, because the average person doesn't care (or even agrees) the market doesn't punish them for it.

How do we change that? How do we influence the culture to bend to us? We are babes in the woods to this activism stuff. We need guidance.
