"but was an unspoken acknowledgment that all the inclusivity and diversity of the past decade just wasn't profitable enough"
I think not re: D&I, considering the ambassador cuts were just part of the first wave of cuts, and they happened to very vocal people (that was their job basically, being loud), so we all knew about it quickly. But the cuts are going deep into all aspects of those brands, it seems.
I'd say it's definitely an acknowledgment that aiming the money gun at the "vain and corroded soul" of "influencers" was not profitable.
