Guy Live Tweets His Stupid Diversity Training

Pretty funny.






Thought for the day: A critical part of the freedom of thought and expression is the freedom not to care about someone else's bugaboos and fever dream fears -- which is the very thing under assault by the Social Justice Warriors.

They are attempting to criminalize not giving a shit about their myriad mental problems and body dysmorphias.

Silence is acceptance. Oh how I have always always always always hated that.

Note also that there is the destruction of the notion that people at least try to interact with one another in good faith. Take the talking to the deaf co-worker. That could be someone being an ass or it could be someone who is legitimately trying to be nice. Nope. Can't be that. Has to be bigotry, seriously, you guys.

This is why I save time and just hate humanity, as a group and on an individual basis.

Speaking of idiotic diversity, I just heard on Fox News that Hillary Clinton will be at an event tomorrow in Florida with dead Traytable Martin's mother.

Fox News, as I suspect other outlets will mention, pointed out the juxtaposition of Trump's big speech today for the NRA (happening right now) and Hillary's meeting with Traycon Martin's mother tomorrow.

You see, a gun killed Trailer Martin, and Trump likes guns.

26 In my diversity class they started picking on the entire industry as not being "diverse". Lot's of hyperbole, propaganda, supposition and fictional examples. Problem being this was really a hypothesis and not back up by fact.

When I related that in my 30 years experience we were the first industry to put women in various positions, African-Americans, homosexuals, etc. because our job was to make money, we needed to pick the best person, period, and we didn't give a shit about their demographics there was about a 30 second uneasy silence.

33 Heh...when I worked at a prog-infested University, all I got out of diversity training was a new joke, which was presented as an example of insensitive and inappropriate humor:

"Name three theological truths:

1) Jews don't recognize the divinity of Jesus
2) Protestants don't recognize the authority of the pope
3) Baptists don't recognize each other at the liquor store."

Back in the day, we all remember, text books all used the male (and universal) pronoun 'he.'

For a while, school text books used 'she/he.'

Today, text books go out of their way to mostly use 'she' and occasionally 'he.' And if text books use hypothetical names, it's nearly always either a male latino name or a anglo female name. Diversity. Like it fucking matters.

Had a run-in with a young homeless guy (seemed crazy) on a city bus with my son. Guy kept trying to engage us in conversation while also making comments about it to himself (yep, weird). Was polite, but got off at the next stop. My son was horrified that I was "mean" to him and "hurt his feelings," so I explained that we were not required to participate in the dude's crazytrain, that *our* comfort came first. Aaaand what are these stupid diversity (and admit it, sexual harassment) classes but participating in someone else's crazytrain of PC BS?

There was A kilgore trout there, he was one of the enforcers that purged the place if I remember correctly.

Kilgore Trout though, might just be a reference to the book slaughterhouse 5 or something.

Um, no. Not to Spanish-speakers.
Cholo is mestizo or indio, someone who obviously has Amerindian blood.
It's what Marco Rubio would call the average Mexican, if he were naughty.

Now, if you live in an area where 90%+ of "Hispanics" happen to be cholos, you might identify "Hispanic" with "cholo." But they aren't the same.

They has CNN on and a GOP spokesman facing off against a female member of the CBC.
She was ranting how Trump lied about Hillary wanted to do away with the 2nd amend.
Claimed Hillary has never said that, is for sensible laws, and politifact has rated what Trump said was a lie.
She did the usual leftist tactic of trying to use up all of the talk time, and when that didn't work she talked over the GOP guy.

I would compare "cholo" to "redneck."
It depends on who is using it.

You can bet it's a put-down when a very-white Mexican snob calls a mestizo a "cholo," just as it's a put-down when a Yankee SJW calls someone a "redneck."

But amongst themselves, it's a term of solidarity and endearment.

302 As a diversity-aware subject of this racist dictatorship, I resent the application that use of the traffic light suggests. Are we expected to associate the color red with stopping? What does this say to the native American population? Are we to associate the color yellow with caution? How does this make oriental peeples feel? Are we to infer green means "go"? How does that impact Martian-Americans? I suggest whoever composed this color-phobic "test" be immediately reeducated to understand that ALL colors are equal and need to be treated the same. That is why, when driving, I come to a stop at green lights and speed thru red ones. It is just my private moral narcissim diveristy-friendly campaign to make all colors feel welcome at traffic intersections.

Just jumping in here to clear it up for anyone interested: I'm not the same guy. No idea that guy existed & I have never even clicked by LGF in passing. That site was before my time. First I was aware anyone else had used the name was reading through the comments here. If you're not sure whether I'm the account in question, reach out to me on Twitter at @beer__wolf & I'll confirm. Ace is correct: name is from several Vonnegut works.
