This is on the pedestrian end of things. Every day at my work, I get an email with vital information. And one thing that gets in is a diversity flavor of the month nugget.

Every day. I just skip over it, to be honest. I don’t think the Didn’t Earn It crew see it as a problem. I think my manager sees it as like Havel’s Greengrocer placing “Workers of the World, Unite!” in his shop window. Just a way to get along in the bureaucracy.

American Marxism differs from the European version in two ways.

1. In America, the Marxist’s took control of the cultural superstructure in order to gain control of the economic substructure.

2. in America, the Marxists divided society by race rather than class when setting people at each others throats.

What they both have in common are hatred and a lust for power for its own sake.

O/T, but it appears the newest affinity group friends of the college campus Diversity Zampolit, aka Hamas has started lobbing mortars at the site of the new Gaza pier our betters in D.C. expended so much time, effort, and money in order to provide the grateful Gazans with succor.

Two thoughts...

- there's a high achieving organization testing their physical limitations on a one mile walk.

- these are the type of organizations who exist to brainwash our nieve youth that the only democratic government in the middle east is evil and an oppressor and the 7th century thinking barbarians with Hamas are the oppressed. These fools don't realize that they would be thrown off the roof of the nearest building if they were protesting in the same fashion in Gaza.

Multi pronged attack.. Intersectionality = the biggest loser, the more victim points based on "their" terminology, the better. The greater victimhood industry includes grant grifters for the homeless and a whole homeless industrial complex on the west coast. Today it was exposed that the State of Washington would give preferential treatment in obtaining marijuana shop licensing to POC's. Everything geared towards tearing down those who earned their success and putting it on a silver platter handed to those who not only don't often merit it but potentially are incapable, incompetent or otherwise unqualified to have whatever. Truly the word Balkanize fits what is going on to a T. It started on college campuses that train teachers and then they began their dirty work with our kids a few generations ago and now we see the results. It's all tied into the same caustic pandering substance of the article referenced. They say you can't polish a turd.. but you can put glitter on it.

DEI = Didn’t Earn It.

"We can form a single united body, while the enemy must split up into fractions. Hence there will be a whole pitted against separate parts of a whole, which means that we shall be many to the enemy's few. And if we are able thus to attack an inferior force with a superior one, our opponents will be in dire straits." https://suntzusaid.com/book/6/14

Today's topic was finely crafted, CDR. Great wordsmithing, skewers like you were channeling Vlad the Impaler.

I'm sorry, but after 43 years of service both in uniform and as civilian I wasn't aware of the need for "Black Faculty and Staff Employee Resource Group". We're getting to the point where we may need a "White Faculty and Staff Employee Resource Group" due to having the cancer called DEI shoved down our throats.

I make a deliberate effort to promote diversity in the most diversity city in the USA because I want it to stay that way. I am active in the Asian, Black, Hispanic and white communities, and sometimes in the Samoan community - particularly as a singer. This is perhaps easier for me than most because I "joint the Navy" and "saw the world" - preferring to pick up languages and meet people at historical sites to spending my time in bars. Growing up English only, until I elected to study German in high school, I can sing in many languages, usually without an accent (because, if you do what they do exactly, there is no accent). I do not understand why one would NOT want to live in a civil community such as Anchorage? We hold the record for languages taught in public schools, and only a city like New York has more languages spoken in homes. Civility is so normal that, if someone violates the norms, the SOP is for total strangers to intervene. My favorite example is when I saw a disturbance in our largest mall. A rare gang of skinheads was harassing an elderly Black woman. I called security. Before I finished the call, so before I could intervene myself, some giant, bearded white man waded through them, put his arm around her and bellowed "leave my mother alone!" [He probably knew that it is a custom in the Black community to call an older woman a "mother" - as in mother of the community - even if you don't know that]. If you get in trouble in rural Alaska, virtually everyone on the road will stop to help - until such time as a solution is found. It used to be the law. After a court struck that down, it remained our general practice anyway.
