The Week In Woke

Companies that touted their DEI programs in the first part of this decade have largely gone dark on the issue--at least publicly.
In the first few years of the 2020s, companies used earnings calls, annual reports, proxy filings, and ESG reports to broadcast their stance on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), a term that shot into the mainstream after 2020's mass protests over George Floyd's death.
In 2020 and 2021 alone,Comcast Corp. pledged $100 million to fight racial injustice and other forms of discrimination. Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. set targets for diversity in top leadership, and Mastercard Inc. became one of many companies to tie executive compensation to environmental, social, and governance metrics.
But when President Donald Trump took office for the second time, he endorsed pushback to the corporate world's DEI focus that had been building among conservatives for years. His January pledge to investigate the private sector for "illegal DEI" preceded abrupt slashes to diversity chatter at companies like Target Corp.
But Target wasn't the only one either rolling back DEI or downplaying ongoing efforts. The use of the "DEI" acronym has dropped 68% year-over-year in S&P 100 companies, according to a recent report from business think tank The Conference Board.

Of course, this doesn't mean DEI is dead -- we've seen colleges simply use other words to continue actually-outlawed DEI discrimination. We won't know how much corporations have abandoned DEI until we learn what exciting new euphemisms they're using for anti-male and anti-white-and-asian racial discrimination.

A black female Hatian writer for The New Yorker attacked Sydney Sweeney as an "Aryan princess."

You'll never guess -- it turns out she is a virulent anti-white racist but that's okay because apparently there's one race you're allowed, nay encouraged, to hate.

But everyone else must continue walking on eggshells around Precious Protected Classes.

A staffer for the New Yorker who denounced Sydney Sweeney as an "Aryan princess" has spouted anti-white and antisemitic rhetoric in social media posts -- before scrubbing her account after being called out on Friday.
Doreen St. Felix, 33, had written several racist posts on X, the site formerly known as Twitter, including that "whiteness fills me with a lot of hate" and that "the holocaust is the worst thing to happen to black people."

I think she probably means that those tricksy Jews are using their own history of oppression to compete with black foreigners' own demands for infinite victimhood points. Black racists dwell on this a lot. They just reject the Holocaust as being a big deal, as Whoopie Goldberg can tell you. (She claimed the Holocaust wasn't "racist" because Germans and Jews were the same race, which would come as a surprise to the Nazis who wrote Germany's racial codes.)

The unearthed inflammatory tweets date back to 2014 -- three years before the Haitian-American journalist was hired by the left-leaning magazine run by longtime editor David Remnick.
St. Felix deleted her X account after her comments resurfaced following her recent article for the Conde Nast-owned publication in which she criticized Sweeney's American Eagle campaign.
In the 1,040-word piece that ran Aug. 2, she accused Sweeney's fans of wanting to "recruit her as a kind of Aryan princess" and declared there were "plenty of reasons" to dislike the ad.
...

In one tweet targeting white men dated in December 2014, St. Felix wrote: "You all are the worst. Go nurse your f--king Oedipal complexes and leave the earth to the browns and the women."
Another simply said: "I hate white men."
The resurfaced messages revealed a pattern of racially charged commentary spanning multiple years.
In one post, St. Felix admitted she "writes like no white is watching."
Another declared that she "would be heartbroken if I had kids with a white guy."
Her antipathy extended to broader cultural claims, including assertions that white people's poor hygiene "literally started the bubonic plague, lice, syphilis."

White people started lice? By the way, Very Well-Informed Elite Writer, the bubonic plague originated in Central Asia and China.

She also suggested that "we lived in perfect harmony w/ the earth pre whiteness" and blamed environmental destruction specifically on "white capitalism."

You lived in fucking mud-huts. You're welcome.

Her posts also contained tone-deaf references to the Nazi slaughter of six million Jews.
In one tweet, she described what she called "the holocaust gesture," writing that "it's tricknological, when white people invoke the holocaust" because it "allows them to step out of their whiteness and slip on fake oppression."
She also wrote that "the holocaust birthed trauma studies" and claimed it "explains a lot about why we get so many things wrong about how trauma comes."
In another post, she claimed "the tolerability of racism is linked to how its acted out on brown bodies. The holocaust was not tolerable bc of white victims so it ended."
...
The Post has sought comment from both Conde Nast and The New Yorker.
..
A Dec. 5, 2014, tweet referenced The Post. She wrote: "there's a slow, second holocaust against brown people in this country and the nypost 'Supports the NYPD' so they are terrorists as well."

So much Holocaust envy. Princess is so angry that white guys don't dig her and Jews compete with her for victim points.

Social media users noted the apparent contradiction between St. Felix's past statements denouncing capitalism and her living conditions.
Her listed address corresponds to a $1.3 million home in a gated Brooklyn community overlooking a marina.

Another black racist of zero talent who is nevertheless infinitely rewarded for her racism and zero talent is Joy Reid, who recently declared that white men are all "mediocre" because they just have their careers handed to them -- the pot here calls the kettle black -- and have never invented anything.

Of course, the only examples of inventions she can think of are styles of music, which, in her mind, are the only inventions that count because black people have some success in music. So those are the only inventions that count.

Who invented the computers and cameras she's recording herself on? Who knows. Probably some black genius scientist like you see in Marvel movies who had his patents stolen by the White Devils.

Former MSNBC anchor Joy Reid condemned President Donald Trump, Elvis Presley and others on Friday as some of history's many "mediocre White men" whose achievements are stolen or counterfeit.
Reid criticized Trump's review of the Smithsonian during an interview with Wajahat Ali for his "The Left Hook" substack, in an episode titled, "How Mediocre White Men and Their Fragility Are Destroying America."
They argued that across America's institutions, there is a phenomenon of "mediocre White men" with no actual culture of their own who co-opt the achievements of Black people to aggrandize themselves.
Ali opened the episode by talking about Trump reforming the Kennedy Center in what his critics call a hostile takeover. The institution, which in recent years had featured drag queen performances, is now being reformed to show decidedly more conservative and pro-American content. Trump announced this year's Kennedy Center awards last week, which he will also be hosting.
Joy Reid was one of MSNBC's most controversial anchors for her rhetoric on race, and since her firing, she has continued her same line of incendiary racial commentary.
"These people cannot create culture on their own," Ali said. "Without Black people, Brown people, the DEIs, there's no culture in America. We make the food better. We make the economy better. We make the music better. Right? MAGA can't create culture. They got Cracker Barrel and Kid Rock."
Reid and Ali claimed that White conservatives practice their own variant of outrage culture where they complain about what they say. "They don't have the intellectual rigor to actually argue or debate with us, right? And what they do is they tattle and tell. They run and tell teacher that 'the Black lady or the Brown man was mean to me.' And that's what they always do," Reid said.
Reid, who initially wore a hat dedicated to the historically debatable 1619 Project, then changed to one with the letters "FDT," took special umbrage at Trump's efforts to review the Smithsonian's historical exhibits ahead of America's 250th anniversary.
"They can't fix the history they did. Their ancestors made this country into a slave -- a slave hell, but they can clean it up now because they got the Smithsonian. They can get rid of all the slavery stuff," she said. "They got PragerU that can lie about the history to the children. They can't originally invent anything more than they ever were able to invent good music.
"We Black folk gave y'all country music, hip-hop, R&B, jazz, rock and roll. They couldn't even invent that, but they have to call a White man 'The King.' Because they couldn't make rock and roll, so they have to stamp 'The King' on a man whose main song was stolen from an overweight Black woman," Reid continued.

So if we're talking about historical wrongs, can we talk about current evils, like the absolutely vile levels of black criminality and victimization of members of other races? No? Why not?

These people gin up less-socialized blacks to go wilding on whites. They instil absolute hatred of white people in some blacks, and then whites pay the consequences.

But yes, let's ignore that and talk forever about slavery (which the White Devils stamped out, at least in the western world, at great expense).

CNN's own mediocre black female racist, Abby Philip, is now going on black podcasts to attack her guests for supposedly downplaying slavery, and being racist. She is calling out Scott Jennings -- the only reason people bother watching her very low-rated (91,000 people! In total!) show, as well as Jillian Michael.

We'll see if Scott Jennings remains on the show or just quits.

Highly fatiguing.

Disturbing footage captured the moment a massive melee broke out on a Carnival Cruise ship among fuming passengers seemingly upset over "chicken tenders."
The violence among about two dozen brawlers erupted aboard the Sunshine at about 2 a.m. Monday -- the last day of its voyage -- as the ship was heading back to Miami, according to a passenger who filmed the mayhem.
A large group of people fighting in a building; a security guard approaches.The violence erupted among about a dozen cruisers who were captured trading blows and slamming each other to the floor. Mike Terra/Instagram
"Where the f--k is security?!" one bystander could be heard yelling in the footage as passengers trade blows and slam each other to the floor.
Multiple security guards could be seen trying to break up the fight, with one overwhelmed officer fleeing the chaos and reaching for his radio as shoes went flying.

At one point, Bronx content creator Mike Terra -- who filmed the uproar and shared it on his social media channels -- flipped the camera to record his own reaction.
"Over chicken tenders is crazy," Terra said in the video.
The content creator who captured the wild melee said it happened on a Carnival Cruise ship at 2 a.m. The content creator who captured the wild melee said it happened on a Carnival Cruise ship at 2 a.m. AP
The avid cruiser later responded to intrigued commenters, calling the ruckus an "isolated incident" that escalated over "more" than just food around 2 a.m. after the ship set sail from Miami.
And when reached by The Post on Wednesday, Terra admitted: "We weren't close enough to know why [the fight] really started, we just knew they were in line for food."

It must be Because Slavery and Because White Supremacy.

An "academic" journal just fired an editor for daring to publish an article skeptical of the theory of runaway global warming.

Well, it is official, Marty Rowland PhD has been fired from his position as Special Issue Editor at the American Journal of Economics and Sociology (AJES). The reason he was given for being fired was his publication of our paper, Carbon Dioxide and a Warming Climate are not problems. The paper has been cited 23 times according to google scholar. It was first published online May 29, 2024, and is already in the top 1% of all 29 million papers followed by Wiley's Altmetric tracker. It is the #2 paper published in the 83-year history of the AJES.

...
Dr. Rowland calls his firing "Orwellian," and we totally agree. The challenge [rebuttal article] by Tinus Pulles in an article somewhat offensively titled "Climate Denialism" cites two articles that directly compare "climate deniers" to holocaust deniers, see here for our critique of this paper. May & Crok has withstood all scrutiny to date.
The offensive and wildly inaccurate Tinus Pulles critique is the one cited by AJES board most when they explain why they fired Dr. Rowland. In addition, other board members were pressured by Wiley to write critiques of our paper, these are Cobb, 2024 and Gwartney & Lough. Both papers make the same argument that the "consensus" says climate change is dangerous so it must be so.
Pulles' critique relies on flawed climate models (also see here and here) projections of the future. Models are not evidence:
As to so-called modeling "evidence," it is the models that we are testing; the model results should not be confused with evidence. (Lindzen, 2012)
...

It appears that firing Dr. Rowland was a purely political act and not based on any legitimate problem with our paper, which is solid as far as anyone knows at this time.

From last week: Another mentally-ill AWFL (is there any other kind?) advances menacingly on a man and threatens to have him arrested for stalking her, all because he has, this mentally-ill moron believes, a pure bred dog rather than one adopted from a shelter.

We join the mental breakdown of this self-entitled vegan (we find out later) on Monday, August 11 (was there a full moon or something?) as she completely loses her mind at a "racist" man for walking what she believes are pure-bred dogs. And because he owns these "pure-bred" dogs, he's a Trump voter who supports ICE.
But, wait, there's so much more. As you'll see in the video, she attempts to get passersby to come to her "aid," feigning that it is he who won't leave her alone and all that implies.

The woman has been ID'd. Of course she has a government job, specifically at the Oregon Health Sciences University.

By the way: Many, many dogs abandoned and now in shelters are, in fact, pure bred. Rocky Kanaka, who runs the wonderful YouTube channel Sitting With Dogs (where he goes into shelters to just comfort dogs), points out that German shepherds are among the most numerous dogs in the shelters. (And, obviously, pit bulls -- a lot of dogs are used for backyard breeding and then abandoned when they get sick or can no longer carry puppies.)

15 DEI will be with us for a long, long time. These corporations didn't just portray a message to curry favor. They allowed the concept to seep into their entire workforce. They gave the DEI Human Resources cows full reign so that they could saturate the companies in their own image.

That's why Disney's animations are so sub-par these days (not even considering the message or the story). They canned most of the established, top of the industry animators because they were straight white older males. There are articles available about this. And, not so remarkably, you can see the decrease in quality. How'd those CGI dwarves in Snow White look to everyone? Nightmares. There's a reason for that.

I got interested in that -- the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis (which is looking more and likely, despite everything) and all that, and then got to looking at climate.

Our current period, which started after the Younger Dryas and the megafauna extinction is dubbed the Holocene (whole new world). There was a period there, from about 9000 to 6500 years BP (~7000 - 4500 BC) dubbed the Holocene Climate Optimum.

It was warmer then than now. They have to lie about this. The infamous "hockey stick" was all about showing a vertical increase in temperature to make the recent mean greater than that.

It's all lies. And they know it's a lie.

I'm amused by Neoconfederates (who denounce Lincoln as a tyrant of course) who are completely unaware that the planter aristocracy was the original globalist class. They wanted to import slave labor, sell the raw material abroad and then use that import capital equipment free of tariffs.

They had zero interest in phasing out slavery, but were looking forward to slave-run factories.

This crushed wages on the Old South, which is why Southerners migrated to the Upper Midwest.

The Republicans, by contrast, wanted to build up domestic industry, support agriculture by free people, and of course use tariffs to boost wages and protect against foreign dumping.

Trump's platform is basically Lincoln's from 1860.

I think Trump timed the DC crackdown for when the Europeans were around to show them that politics is the art of the possible (Bismarck) and law and order is possible.
The Presidents and PMs won't see it, but their staff and media from EU will see it and I would not be surprised if it leaks down to the public and they start asking, "why not here, too?" And I think that was Trump's plan.

Hear me out, what if we put a brig in the cruise ships and some exercise equipment for them to pass the time. And we could motivate them to using the equipment by withholding food.

Here's the great part: we can hook the equipment into an auxiliary engine system to power the ship! Renewable energy!

145 It’s difficult to convey, but in broad general terms what is happening at our universities looks similar in a lot of ways to what happened in Germany and Europe in general when anti-semitism became formalized. They ran off all the physicists, for example. One scientist was asked in the 1930s what the state of mathematics was in Germany. “It doesn’t exist any longer.”

I saw the nonsense decades ago at the universities. Where I seriously miscalculated, I was somehow convinced the madness would not, could not, extend to mathematics, science, engineering. I thought they were immune.

American dominance in science and engineering, math and chemistry is being destroyed by incompetent socialists. This is not a new phenomenon, but a very dangerous one. It is definitely a national security issue. These culture destroyers know exactly what they are doing and why.

In a bizarre twist to an ongoing scandal surrounding New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ administration, former adviser Winnie Greco has claimed that a potato chip bag filled with $300 in cash, which she handed to a local reporter, was merely a “birthday gift” rooted in Chinese cultural traditions.

The problem, aside from it being in a shady sour cream and onion potato chip bag, is that the reporter’s birthday is not until November.

I can't believe anyone is still "calling on" universities and scientists to "interrogate their racism" and "break down privilege" and all that crap. It's ANCIENT. The system you have NOW is a result of all that. People acting like they just discovered it and it's time to get started, do you know anything about the recent past? I wonder what they'd think if they saw how universities were, say, back in the 1980s, just a smattering of gay+lesbian support groups, feminist clubs, and nascent affirmative action already full of failures.

I've been pretty skeptical of the AIDS numbers in Africa because there was no huge die off I remember and it was the crooked foreign aid industry that was reporting the numbers. Today even the crooked UN and Aid industry throws up 10 times as much begging for Gaza.

He wasn't on the Nile either. But the Congo has a cataract near the coast, and the water level upriver changes massively so even upriver traffic is chancy. You might get stuck upriver until the next rains.

330 I work for a pretty big corporation. The corporate email spam has completely stopped spouting any of the DEI crap.

A friend of mine had a supervisors meeting in January 2025: the C-Suite suits admitted that employees were sick of DEI, and it was adversely-affecting morale.

I'd like to think that I had a little part to play in my employer stopping DEI. I kept informing them in the Employee Satisfaction Surveys that what the company was doing could potentially be seen as Civil Rights violations.

334 The Dr. Rowland affair is so much worse than you think.

Rowland specifically asked the climate skeptics to write a paper that would explain their "dumb" ideas. They did. Surprisingly it was extremely well thought out and complete and utilized a great many papers and well sourced evidence.

He then allowed other scientists to publish responses - which were mostly unscientific rants.

he then allowed the climate deniers to respond, which they did with additional information, clarification, and detailed references.

And that was when he got fired.

336 "I read that a Jewish coach invented basketball in order for short people to have a game in which they could compete."

I hate basketball, probably because I can't dunk. But if the most noteworthy moments of a game are when you DONT score, maybe you're playing a self-esteem sport. Most games are decided in the final minute, 105-103. 99-88. Replay the same game that night and the score would be same, but with the winner/loser reversed.

101-100. That's an average of 50 goals per team. Name any other "sport" where teams score 50 goals per game. Most players would be like "I've really enjoyed perfecting my trademark Super Strike double back flip with super-hero landing, but could we look at making the goal smaller?"
