    America is listening. Will the cultists stop? No. But We The People can cut off funding and facility use now being utilized to indoctrinate in this hateful ideology of revenge.

    'I REMEMBER WHEN ELIMINATIONIST RACIAL RHETORIC WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BAD': ‘To abolish Whiteness is to abolish White people’ lecture goes viral.

    [​IMG]
    Racist Hack, Berkeley Prof.

    During the lecture, he argued that since White people "depend" on "Whiteness," if the latter is undercut or abolished, then the entire concept of "White people" is erased.

    This racist clown's Whiteness Studies course claims 'that “white people are born human” and that they have to be “abused” into becoming White.'

    This racist crapturd claims parents are the abusers.

    'Recommended reading from the professor of education at Berkeley includes concepts such as “white people are not born white”. White people are “born human” and then “white parents physically and psychologically ABUSE them” into becoming “white people”.'

    I have an idea for a drinking game. We can call it the "DuhSantis Woke Game".
    '
    Listen to a speech. Take a drink every time he says "woke". You'll soon be inebriated!

    THEY SAY THAT LIKE IT’S A BAD THING: Colleges Could Be Flooded with Citizen Lawsuits Under Proposed DEI Legislation.

    [​IMG]

    'ban or limit diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI programs, Arizona, Arkansas, Iowa, and Texas have gone as far as allowing people to sue schools that they think violate the proposed laws.'

    Then don't violate the law.

    'Arizona’s bill, SB 1694, would ban universities from adopting policies “to influence the composition of its work force based on race, sex or color,” and prohibit the adoption or promotion of ideas including unconscious or implicit bias, cultural appropriation, allyship, structural racism, and disparate impact among other prohibited stances. It also allows employees to sue the university for making DEI training mandatory.'

    Then don't make it mandatory and don't pretend that you can read minds and hearts and on the basis of such 'reading' declare that innocent people are guilty of 'bias'.

    'Arkansas’ bill would end explicit efforts to recruit employees of color in public colleges and allow those who believe they have been denied employment because of their identity to sue the college.'

    Good. Quit judging people by their skin color.

    'In Iowa, SF 81 prohibits training related to “racism/scapegoating” and allows students’ parents and faculty members to sue institutions that offer such training.'

    They are actually angry that they will be held accountable for racist scapegoating.

    'In effect, the series of bills would deputize regular citizens in the fight against DEI.' Good. Citizen-dupties are the best deputies.

    EMPOWERING INSTITUTIONAL STAKEHOLDERS

    “Courts are often stingy regarding the standing that plaintiffs have to bring civil-rights cases, so we thought we would ensure that plenty of institutional stakeholders had standing to sue over universities’ violations of this law,”

    'DEI offices were created to assist with conversations on race, gender, and sexual orientation when those talks become confrontational, or when a climate emerges on campus where marginalized groups don’t feel safe or welcome.'

    Except that they don't engage in conversations, you are supposed to shut up except when you have permission to grovel and declare your guilt over pretend offenses.

    F.I.R.E. IS WORTH LISTENING TO:

    'FIRE is worried that DEI efforts can silence opposing views within the faculty and on campus, which it views as a violation of free speech. But it also sees the broad bans on DEI work that’s pursued by conservatives as an attack on the free-speech rights of students, faculty, and administrators who want to engage in conversations about identity and race.'

    That captures the balance that sensible folks are seeking.

    'FIRE has not taken a position on the model legislation, but it is concerned that university diversity statements, a practice where a candidate for a job or promotion is asked how they have contributed to diversity in their academic careers, hold the potential to act like a screen for faculty seeking employment or tenure. Some academics have called the statements “an ideological litmus test that violates academic freedom.” Lawmakers in seven states are considering bans on diversity statements. Meanwhile, the University of North Carolina and Texas A&M and Texas State university systems no longer use diversity statements in hiring or promotion decisions.'

    GOOD

    I think you have to be conservative to understand it. Conservatives view the term as referring to lefist actions they view as harmful to the country. Those are things like preferred pronouns, drag shows in schools, allowing men to compete in women's sports, pushing children into transgenderism, equity instead of equality, police defunding, putting the rights of criminals ahead of the rights of the public etc. That sort of thing.
