Hey quit with all the conspiracy theories the answer is really simple. The advertising sections of the marketing departments of all companies are staffed with young 20 something FEMALE graduates from Universities. ( the bachelors of business administration with a marketing major is almost all female these days, as are the degrees in psychology) They do the add buying for the corporation. The ads that they buy are the one that appeal to them. You see the answer is really simple.

I think the assumption is that old people lean right, young lean left, and those young people have more years ahead of them as consumers, so it makes more sense to market to that demographic. If these big companies can get the hard-left leaning young demographic to believe that they are both on the same side and that these companies have their best interests at heart, with nothing more than a silly superbowl ad that costs a few million, then they might have customers for life at a relatively low acquisition cost.

Dig and meme all the perpetrators.
I'm sure Audi will have gender inequality somewhere. Dealership mechanics?
Coca Cola will probably pay immigrants less. Do they have all immigrant workers all working below median wages etc?
They're all virtue signalling and pushing an ideal that they don't even live up to. Pull them up on it!
