Minecraft’s “Hive of Harmony” Targets Kids with Activist Messaging
July 29, 20261792 Exchange Executive Vice President Greg Scott spoke with the Daily Caller News Foundation about “Hive of Harmony,” a free Minecraft Marketplace add-on released to coincide with Stockholm Pride. The download gives players rainbow-themed hives that grow twice as fast, an “Ally Queen” bee, and multiple pride flag variants, including the transgender flag. Ideological propaganda has no place in games targeted at children. Unfortunately, many companies have not gotten the message that Americans are fed up with corporate activism on behalf of radical and dangerous causes. What’s even worse than the messaging itself is that online gaming is the new playground for predators, and with this new feature, Minecraft is making it easier to identify and target the most vulnerable children. As a company infamous for its viruses, Microsoft should be more sensitive to what it is purposely infecting its products with. Every parent should know just what these companies are up to and be vigilant about what their children are doing with their screen time. Read the full story at the Daily Caller
Comment of 1792 Exchange in Support of the Proposed Rule, “Rescinding the Equity Assistance Center Program Regulations
July 23, 2026Dear Assistant Secretary Baesler: 1792 Exchange writes in support of the Department’s proposal to remove the Equity Assistance Center Program regulations, and we strongly urge the Department to complete this process. 1792 Exchange is a nonprofit corporate accountability organization. We document ideological capture across American companies and institutions and work to return them to neutrality by upholding free speech, free exercise, and free enterprise. That work gives us a clear view of this program, because we sit at the far end of the pipeline it feeds. The drift this rule corrects begins at the schoolhouse. We document where it ends. Congress created this program in the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for one purpose: to help school districts desegregate. Congress even defined the word “desegregation” so no official could bend it. “Desegregation” means assigning students without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. And in the same sentence, Congress said what desegregation is not: moving children around to hit racial targets. The rule runs in one direction only. Race is not to be used, not even for approved causes. The Supreme Court says the same thing in plain words: “Eliminating racial discrimination means eliminating all of it.” That …

ESG Rating Inconsistencies and Their Ideological Ends
July 7, 2026Allen Mendenhall’s recent piece on MSCI ranking SpaceX in the same ESG tier as Russia asks a fair question: how does a rocket company advancing American innovation get scored the same as a state waging war? Unbeknownst to many, inconsistencies are common when it comes to ESG portfolios and ratings. In 2022, S&P dropped Tesla from its S&P 500 ESG Index while ExxonMobil landed in the top ten. The EV maker scored worse on an “Environmental, Social, Governance” rating than a major oil company. In fact, according to MIT Sloan’s Aggregate Confusion Project, ESG ratings from major agencies correlate at only about 0.61. Compare that to credit ratings from Moody’s and S&P, which agree 99% of the time. Companies often receive vastly different ESG rating scores from ratings providers, even ones that share a pro-ESG bias. These are the kinds of inconsistencies that led Elon Musk, CEO of the second-largest electric vehicle manufacturer in the world, to declare that ESG is a scam. Mendenhall concludes himself: the SpaceX rating shows ESG functioning less as “socially conscious investing” and more as “a mechanism for advancing ideological ends.”
