ESG investing – Fad or future?

i am betting FAD , BECAUSE two of the necessary factors are Sustainability , GOVERNANCE .
now i could dismiss 'governance ' by just mentioning the Hayne Royal Commission ( which trashed the reputation of 25% of our top 20 stocks , AMP was a top 20 stock back then ) but i won't , governance is now also endangered by 'diversity ' and 'board refresh-mania '
now Sustainability sounds fine until you add in 'regulatory risk' ( normally the whim of some government official BUT now can be as a result of 'Cancel Culture ' )

there is no point having these fund managers using MY money to act against my best interests
now sure do it with their own cash .. but no they won't they will leverage the unit-holders cash to push their own agendas

( mind you they might be replaced with ETFs that just focus in managing portfolios )
