Corporate actors could expect bonuses for increasing minority participation; financial gatekeepers anticipated losses on investments in minorities. ...

This is why DEI will triumph over innovation and productivity. And its just a shift downward as far as quality of life, etc.

Just look at how they have attacked the ACT and SAT for college admissions in order to give an advantage to unqualified demographic groups.

And its getting to point that it is enough comfortably entrenched that they don't have to promote propaganda that diversity leads to greater service and products and ultimately more profit.

DEI is all about "normalizing lower achievement and standards".

Claire Kyle” eventually deleted her account but not before reminding us that she will for sure not be fired because she’s a good teacher and the school board has her back.

It's not that they can't be fired. It is just that it is bureaucratically (and often legally) a royal bitch to do so. Therefore, someone has to do something that equates to an even bigger headache in the eyes of Administration than all the shit they will get from firing her.

And clearly, she did just that. I suspect her union rep or legal counsel told her to nuke the social media account because they at least know all that I just wrote on the above.

But by then it was too late.

Nice to know that the Administration at that school/district had enough brains to not shirk at throwing her under the bus ASAP. Smart move on their part.

Too much opposition to her as she got fired; there was not enough white liberal and militant Woke support for her Claire Kyle.

My question is this becoming more the norm ? Or are we at the worst point as far as this type of behavior or culture ? I pray we are past the worst point.

Equity requires measuring the “ratio between the number of black and Asian individuals per 1,000 arrested by the Dallas Police Department.“

Dallas cops had better arrest the same ratio of black and Asian criminals. And that may be a problem as black people are being arrested 11 times more often than Asians. Either the Dallas PD needs to find reasons to arrest a lot more Asians or arrest fewer black criminals. And what equity really translates into is much less law enforcement because fighting crime is racist.

While the Dallas Equity Plan proposed going easy on criminals if they were the right race, Johnson was conducting a victory tour claiming that he had defeated crime. That would come as news to the city’s crime victims. By the end of July, 150 people had been murdered.

Very, very rare moment of truth...

This is a real video used for HR training that compares white people to mosquitoes to explain why black violence is justified

We need a kind of ADL for white people, who are defamed every day in horrible ways in the mainstream media, HR, and academia.

The parasites in power pushing this agenda don't actually hate white people. They just hate that we still hold some amount of cohesiveness and power which is a threat to their rule. The goal is to divide and weaken the largest power groups by pitting numerous smaller ones against them.

If No One’s Hiring White Guys, What Are They Doing With Themselves?

Thoughts on the recent Bloomberg report that only 6% of the S&P 100's new hires are White. ...

A few days ago Bloomberg published a report that should put an end to whatever internal debate you’ve been having over whether or not you’re really being discriminated against: Corporate America Promised to Hire a Lot More People of Color. It Actually Did. They analyzed hiring data from 2020 through 2021 for 88 Standard & Poor’s 100 companies, and found that during the Year of the Blessed Floyd’s Coronation, those companies hired 323,094 people ... of whom just 6% were White.




... Of course, since diversity certainly does mean ‘no Whites’, non-Hispanic Whites are under-represented among new hires by a factor of 10 relative to their 60% of the population.

Whites are disfavoured at every level of the hiring process, comprising far less than their 60% share of the population in new hires across the board: 27% of professionals, 22% of managers, and 42% of executives. ...




Deaths from car accidents have been relatively constant since 1999 or so, aside from a small drop around 2006. Opiods surpassed car accidents as the most significant cause of death around 2008 entirely due to the increase in overdoses. A couple of years later more American adults were dying of drug ODs than from all other accidental causes combined. In 2020 something like 80,000 people OD’d. That number has only increased since: to over 106,000 in 2021, an annual rate that seems to have held fairly constant although hard numbers for 2022 and 2023 are hard to come by.

Blaming fentanyl is a bit out of date, by the way. Just as fentanyl replaced oxycontin, it has apparently been replaced in turn with xylazine, which provides a stronger hit and is therefore much more popular with the junkies, with the only downside being that it causes tissue necrosis.

It’s a literal zombie apocalypse, brought to you by the infernal symbiosis between Mexican cartels and the simpering HR covens whose cherished diversity initiatives push more new customers into the cartel’s sales funnel every day.

We usually think of affirmative action as being something primarily targeted at well-paying, prestigious positions, but the Bloomberg study shows, I think, that this is absolutely not the case anymore, assuming it ever was. Remember, White employment at the bottom of the S&P 100 corporate ladder – which comprised 60% of the hiring performed by those companies – decreased by almost 19 thousand jobs. If Whites had been hired proportionately to their population, 117 thousand White people would have gotten low-level jobs with these companies. Remember, these are generally going to be people without university educations or professional training, maybe only with high school diplomas, from working-class backgrounds, probably without a lot of savings or strong social safety nets, and already living in communities ravaged by drugs ... exactly the people who are most at risk of developing an unshakable enthusiasm for the white powder that takes the pain of existence away.

Studies have shown that these deaths of despair are predominantly a White male phenomenon. Like American Indians trapped on reservations after the buffalo herds had been slaughtered and left with nothing but time and firewater on their hands, a lot of White guys are simply hitting the exit button.

The analogy between what is currently being done to White people, and what was done to the Red man, is a close one. The Red man’s traditional way of life was hunting, fishing, gathering, and a bit of farming, activities for which he needed land; when that land was taken away, he could no longer live as he had, and as a result, mostly he just died. Over the last century the ‘traditional’ mode of life for White men became employment with a large corporation, whether as a blue-collar factory worker or a white-collar symbol manipulator. Those institutions are, from an economic perspective, the equivalent of a hunter-gatherer’s or farmer’s land: they’re the environment within which most White people have made their living for over a century. The factories were largely sent overseas decades ago, leading to the economic and social devastation of the rust belt and the lumpenproletarianization of the working class; now, diversity hiring initiatives mean that White men are being steadily pushed out of the administrative positions with which some were able to maintain a reasonable standard of living during the offshoring era.

Yeah, I've been experiencing this myself on the job market. That and I moved onto management, where there a lot less jobs.

Finally, in more good news from the counter-revolution, the New York Times ran an op-ed last week headlined, “’Antiracism’ Was Never the Right Answer.”

Who knew? The opinion piece focused on the recent meltdown of Ibram X. Kendi’s ‘Center for Antiracist Research’ at Boston University. More than half its staff was laid off and half its budget was cut amidst difficult questions over what it did with nearly $55 million dollars raised.

But it’s not about the money. It’s never about the money.

Despite a mediocre academic record, ‘professor’ Ibram X. Kendi rose to national prominence after writing a book popularizing the concept of “anti-racism,” which holds that it is not enough to be race-neutral anymore. According to Kendi, to avoid being racist, you have to be a pro-black activist, or “anti-racist.”

Kendi isn’t interested in half-measures. He infamously wrote, “The only remedy to racist discrimination is antiracist discrimination.”

As a result, Kendi was feted by big corporations and fawned over by scads of race baiting activists. His bizarre slogan minted an entire anti-racism industry. For example, employees at Penguin Random House were required to read his book as the publishing house’s first “true companywide read,” to begin “antiracism training mandatory for all employees.” The bizarre ideology metastasized, as exemplified by this kids’ book found in nearly all U.S. public school libraries:




Last month, the Washington Post reported, “No longer a mere ambassador for academic antiracism, Kendi became a brand.” But now, after Kendi’s money scandal, the anti-racism ‘brand’ may be becoming passé.

After many mind-numbing paragraphs of hand-wringing and grievance-based word salad, the op-ed concluded that maybe — just maybe — Kendi went a little too far:

"In short, a person can oppose racism on firm ethical or philosophical or pragmatic grounds without embracing Kendi’s conception of antiracism. No organization can expect all employees or students to adhere to a single view on how to combat racism."

How about that? More progress. Keep the faith, it’s working.

“One of the greatest conspiracy theories of all time is that hidden racism pervades our entire society - predicting every single life outcome for Blacks and Hispanics while being so subtle you need a professional Sociologist to see it...and not affecting Asians, Nigerians, or Indians at all.” — Political scientist Wilfred Reilly.

Either race is important or it’s not. You can’t encourage one race to have absurd inflated egos about their skin color, while demeaning the skin color of another race, and punishing them if they attempt the mildest defense. Some races are not more equal than others. This isn’t Animal Farm. We should all be assessed by the content of our character, as Martin Luther King (who’d be attacked as a White Supremacist today) once said. I hate talking about race. But it’s their favorite subject. And because none of us wanted to talk about it, we stand on the brink of extinction. That’s something we should all be concerned about, and not afraid to combat. Some species never had this chance. Let’s not be wooly mammoths or dodo birds.

I quote that all the time "Four legs good, two legs bad." That's what this crap is, pure Marxist/Communist.

Yesterday, James O’Keefe and OMG Media released another probably-illegal DEI quota video, adding to last week’s IBM exposé. This one was from pharmaceutical giant Sanofi.

“We make it very clear so every hiring manager knows,” stressed Sanofi’s senior vice-president, probably not fully realizing she would later be going viral. Sanofi requires one in five of its employees to be black, and one in ten must be hispanic. I’m not sure which is more troubling, the potential Title VII violations, or the fact that merit seems not to be the highest priority anymore at the nation’s largest corporations that make important things like medicines.

In a landmark June decision, the Supreme Court found university diversity quotas unconstitutional. Because most corporate hiring policies aiming at “diversity” goals have been justified because colleges do it, many commenters expected lawsuits against corporations to follow the Court decision even though its decision didn’t reach private businesses.

As private entities, corporations are not subject to Constitutional limits on government.

But corporations are limited by Title VII, which bars racial discrimination in hiring, even so-called “reverse discrimination.” And in fact, the lawsuits have begun. All the momentum seems to be running against DEI right now.
