So, I figure there are a few possible takes here...

  1. They didn't really care about diversity before
  2. They don't care about being anti-woke
  3. They've only ever cared about making money and they've made these changes to appease who they perceived to be the majority
  4. They are afraid of trump

I say it's a combination of all of them.
