These ideals are being implemented in almost every workplace through DEI training and ESG scores. That doesn't fall out of the sky. It's not an organic movement. You say it isn't governments responsibility to monitor that, but the same people who have bought our politicians to roll out these policies are simultaneously funding a media complex that regurgitates the proper talking points. This is all in the name of utopia. Not for us, mind you (even though that's what they claim), but for the stakeholders. 

The Great Reset is a book by Klaus Schwab. You think it's a conspiracy, because you aren't actually well informed (like you believe yourself to be). He runs the WEF. He was a student of Kissinger, who believed strongly in the idea of a new world order. These are based on utopian ideals, and what do we have to show for it? Rising prices, less freedom of mobility in the form of higher rent and housing costs, and a war-torn turbulent world. 

How do they do this? Glad you asked... just kidding, you're too stone headed to ask the right questions and your cognitive bias keeps you from actually integrating new information into your world view, but I'll tell you anyways. The WEF is pushing DEI and ESG on governments worldwide:

The diversity backlash is underway. Here’s how to resist it | World Economic Forum (weforum.org) (and they say there's no they)

They control MSM by making GARM, which punishes any mainstream outlet that speaks on off topic subjects. They control 90% of the ad revenue dollars, meaning that media companies are competing for their dollars. There's no such thing as independent, mainstream journalism or they would go bankrupt. 

They groom and support politicians who push their agendas. Do you have any idea how many politicians have attended WEF training? These people go to this training specifically to gain WEF support and connections, and come out often preaching the same message as the organization wants to present. These people get extra airtime, huge donations, and are expedited up the political ladder in every country the WEF has influence. Does this mean they are all puppets? Not necessarily. It does increase the likelihood they share the same narrative, though. That's how they get to the top.

I could literally spend hours on this, but it's a waste of time. The average moderate on this board (which, imo, is reflective of the US as a whole), is too comfortable and naive to address these issues and see what they are going to do for Americans. Hint: it's nothing. These policies are killing everything that made us successful. They are going to funnel our money up to people who will never have to change their lifestyle, while we become consumers if we're lucking and producers if we're not. American independence will be brought to its knees. Central digital currency is next. 

Unelected elites, promising the world a new future, while they take their resources, stay fat and happy, and destroy our way of life. Great job, Stone Head.

DEI? Oh no! Not diversity! Not inclusion! 
ESG? Sustainable? Please no! Make the future anything but sustainable and inclusive!
You are ascribing God like powers to these people.  Just like you don't know the future, neither do they.
If these policies fail to deliver prosperity for the common man, the common man won't vote for them.  If they fail to deliver value to shareholders, the shareholders will divest and seek value elsewhere.

Do you try to be this dense? We were literally just having a conversation about utopianism at the root of many of the American ills. You said there is none. I showed there is. Can you not see that democrats fall lock step in line with this ideology? I do not ascribe godlike powers to these people. I ascribe the powers that powerful men have always held except for when the masses prevent them from holding it. Oh, btw, no one is voting for corporate policies, but these people are the ones funding our politicians. So your plan is for us just not to vote for them? Third party, eh? Lol. What a joke of a thinker you can be sometimes, bro.
