As for international pronoun day; They, Them, Those and It can kiss my hetero female [BLEEP]. I don't care how anyone identifies, I don't care who people sleep with as long as it's consensual, I don't care who does what as long as it's not hurting others or infringing on the rights of others. Truly. I. Don't. Care.

What I do care about is being preached at and told what to think. I don't like being influenced. I don't like being told what I have isn't good enough so I need to buy the latest and greatest. We stream from several platforms and pay extra to have ZERO ads on Hulu and others that offer the choice between that or limited ads. If they don't offer a choice we don't subscribe. During football games I mute the sound during commercial breaks.

Bottom line: I DON'T LIKE BEING TOLD HOW & WHAT TO THINK.

I am perfectly capable of making up my own mind about something. It must be sad to live in the mind of someone who needs others to tell them what to think and say. To not have critical thinking skills and be able to make a decision or choose something has got to be a sad existence. I almost feel sorry for liberal progressives who lead these sad lives. On the other hand I want to [BLEEP] slap them into the reality that not every single thing is about them.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

It teaches to me how to feel inferior by being a heterosexual white male.  

Although I am in a 'protected class' at work because I'm over 65 and still in the workforce.  They aren't allowed to offend me either.  And there are HR classes on how to relate to and not 'offend' old people like me.    Laughing

If I was your age (not far behind) I would seriously consider hanging it up.  We haven't had to have any of that "training"... yet.  The military has started up this kind of "woke" training indoctrination so as a contractor working for the military I'm sure it's going to eventually filter to us as well.  If that happens I may just walk away and take some mundane job somewhere in my small town.  It would save me a 45 mile commute each way and give me some peace of mind.

We just started that BS here at the FRB.  I am counting the days until I can hang it up.
It appears a county school superintendent and a school board in Virginia were willfully covering up serial sexual assaults against girls committed by a student because he was transgendered.

It looks like McAuliffe's people are getting ready for an election dispute in Virginia. 

Team McAuliffe emails reveal effort to 'kill this' Fox News story | Fox News

Virginia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe's campaign raised eyebrows by spending nearly $60,000 to hire a high-profile attorney known for masterminding election-related legal challenges. When Fox News sent the campaign a request for comment, the McAuliffe campaign scrambled to "kill" the story, according to emails mistakenly sent to Fox News.

Less than a month before Election Day, McAuliffe's campaign spent $53,680 on the services of the Elias Law Group, a firm that Marc Elias started earlier this year, Fox News previously reported. Elias had formerly worked as a partner at the law firm Perkins Coie, which the Hillary Clinton campaign hired in 2016 in order to conduct opposition research on Donald Trump – research that included the infamous Christopher Steele dossier. Republicans have accused Elias of lying to hide the Clinton campaign's role in funding the dossier...

New Jersey professor on White people: 'I want to say ... we got to take these motherf---kers out' | Fox News

A Rutgers University professor said, "We got to take these motherf---kers out," when discussing White people in September.

Brittney Cooper, an associate professor in the Rutgers University Department of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies, made the comment during an event titled, "Unpacking the Attacks on Critical Race Theory," hosted by The Root.

"Like, the thing I want to say to you is we got to take these motherf---kers out. But, like, we can't say that, right? We can't say, like, I don't believe in a project of violence. I truly don't," Cooper said.

Cooper was responding to a question posed by Michael Harriot, senior writer for The Root, who asked Cooper what can be expected out of White people from Black Americans.

Cooper also said that she believes that "White folks" are not "eternal."

"But I do fundamentally believe that things that have a beginning have an ending. All things that begin end. White folks are not infinite and eternal, right?" Cooper said. "They ain't going to go on for infinity and infinity. And that's super important to remember that white colonialism and imperialism has a beginning. And in my way of thinking about the world, that means it has an end."

She added that "Whiteness is going to have an end date, because despite what White people think of themselves, they do not defy the laws of eternity."

"But Whiteness is largely an, you know, an inconvenient interruption," Cooper said...

I can't wait to hear the hew and cry when Biden starts handing out fat stacks to illegal immigrants while reparations goes unaddressed. Just another warm steaming pile of a leftist conundrum of their own making they're stepping in.
What the heck was she even saying? A bunch of gibberish. No one is eternal you dumb cow.

Honestly, what did these idiots think would be the outcome? And to think they want to take this emotionally spastic and irresponsible style of government to a national level. 

'Where are we headed?' Portland's record-setting year for murder fuels search for answers (yahoo.com)


...Crime is up all over the country, and has been since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020. But there is a a certain sad irony in Portland, long considered a safe, desirable place to live. Already, the city has tallied 67 homicides for 2021, breaking a 34-year-old record of 66. Last year, 55 homicides was a 26-year high in the city.

The numbers alone are troubling, but even more worrisome when compared with other similarly sized cities, where violent crime numbers are considerably less, including Seattle and Boston. In Portland, long considered a liberal stronghold in America, some community leaders and officers feel that police defunding efforts in summer 2020 may have backfired, at least somewhat. With fewer officers on the street, violence has escalated significantly...
