My Gazette: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is Suicide

Diversity without accomplishment is philosophy without form and incompetence without consequence.

By Rich Kozlovich

What in the world is wrong with these people's minds?  They're destroying the very fabric of civilization by destroying the Judaic/Christian ethics and values that made western civilization the envy of the world.  Why?  Let's try and get this right ....once... please, just once.  This isn't incompetence or stupidity.  It's a deliberate, organized, and planned effort to destroy America and western civilization in order to impose a tyrannical system of world governance, all the while screaming about saving "our" democracy.  Only it's "their' democracy they're wanting to save, and "their" democracy means destroying "our" republic.

The cry for civil rights back in the 60's was a valid cry, and most Americans, including me, agreed something needed to be done to bring equality to all Americans.  We didn't get equality, we got equity.  Not equal rights, but equal outcomes, and in order to do that meritocracy had to be destroyed in order for the incompetent, uneducated, lazy, and stupid to prosper.

  • The core purpose of DEI is theft January 11, 2024 By Lewis Dovland - The recent Claudine Gay debacle at Harvard should once and for all open everyone's eyes to the destructive nature of the DEI movement and its place in the Big Picture. After she completely flubbed an easy answer (for a sane person) about calling for the killing of Jews, it took the discovery of a series of over 40 separate examples of plagiarism to force Harvard to fire (actually, demote) her at full pay. It's easy to understand the emotional appeal of DEI, which is that it is only fair to promote a few unqualified people into positions they haven’t earned and do not deserve to bring about equality. This view holds that the only necessary qualification under a DEI appointment is the person’s continued compliance with and support of DEI as they manage their position. No matter any other skills or lack thereof, the Marxist lie is that only this type of hiring will force equality on institutions..............

We started attempting to grease a few squeaks. Squeaks that needed greased.  We ended up with an unending number of squeaks that couldn't be greased enough.  What started out as a valid moral issue has morphed into a corrupt destructive force in America, and western civilization.   

We're being forced to accept mentally disturbed views as rational, we're expected to accept ridiculous and destructive restrictions over a false pandemic as an effort to save humanity, and we being forced to believe incompetence is good for the nation and constructive to society.  That murdering the unborn is health care and any who won't play along must be punished. We have an overwhelming bureaucracy that is actively sowing division with their subsidizes madness.

Why should a man in makeup and a dress be given extra legal rights to sue anyone who sees through his delusions?  Why should rational men be expected to allow mentally unstable men to use public restrooms with their wives and daughters?  Why should parents be expected to entrust their children’s welfare with psychologically troubled men who have sought out jobs at schools, amusement parks, and daycares?  Why would government agents intervene to support the fantasies of people inclined to mutilate their bodies and traumatize others with their deceptions?  How can any government maintain its legitimacy for long when it embraces insanity as reality and condemns reality as imaginary?

For a long time, psychologically balanced people have done their best to ignore the government’s increasingly psychotic behavior.  When pressed, they have even reluctantly played along: You need me to wear this filthy paper mask that does nothing to prevent the transmission of viral particles floating in the air, so that you know that I know that this is somehow all Trump’s fault?  Fine, don’t break down in tears or start screaming or call the cops.  I’ll play along.  

Playing along, however, has gotten psychologically healthy people nowhere.  For every insane concession they make to government authorities, those authorities invent half a dozen new insane demands of society.   

In the name of food justice, social justice, ocean justice, racial justice, and climate justice, just to name a few, any insanity must be accepted.....or else! And every branch of the federal government is in collusion with this corruption. 

What If DIE Dies? - January 19, 2024 By Robert Weissberg - The widespread pro-Hamas demonstrations, particularly at elite universities, has, ironically, had a positive impact by alerting Americans to the ideological rot infecting higher education. They now realize that the slogan “Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity” (DIE) is not just the latest black civil rights campaign; rather, it is a race-based ideology that demonizes white civilization.  Abolishing whiteness means ending the colorblind rule of law, abolishing the merit principle, eliminating constitutionally-protected rights together with limited government and one-person-one-vote democracy, and the economic freedom and all the rest that has made America, America.  Champions of DIE envision a race-based utopia of group, not individual rights, where costs and benefits are decided by all-powerful officials based on one’s status as a member of an oppressed group.

As the diversity office at Johns Hopkins hospital put it, “White people, able-bodied people, heterosexuals, cisgender people, males, Christians, middle or owning class people, middle-aged people, and English-speaking people,” all enjoy privilege.  In this utopia, a disabled black trans lesbian would go to the head of the line for admission to MIT, and white males from an affluent family to the back. This is a transformational revolution that redefines family, what is “normal” sex, crime, how laws are enforced, and the values that guide civilized life..............

In Major Win For Diversity, Airline Hires Blind Pilot - Spirit Airlines has hammered yet another nail into the coffin of ableism by hiring the world's first blind commercial airline pilot. Flight 2047 from Orlando to Saint Louis is set to be the first vision-impaired flight. The co-pilot will reportedly wear a blindfold for the duration of the flight out of solidarity with its blind captain.

According to sources, Isaac "Fuselage" Bartimaeus dreamed of being a pilot ever since someone described to him what planes look like. The rookie pilot, who has been blind since birth, earned a pilot's license after spending two years studying theoretical flight. Due to his condition, he was not permitted to fly a plane as part of his schooling. Spirit Airlines waived the requisite 1,500 hours of flight time as a way of accommodating his disability....................

FAA Recruiting Workers with Psychiatric Problems to Be More Diverse and Inclusive - January 15, 2024 Amy Furr - The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is working to hire people with psychiatric problems and other concerning issues in order to be more diverse and inclusive, Fox News reported Sunday. On the FAA’s Diversity and Inclusion webpage, the agency claimed, “Diversity is integral to achieving FAA’s mission of ensuring safe and efficient travel across our nation and beyond,” adding diversity is “critical.”......

The vision of the FAAJanuary 17, 2024 By Bill Hansmann - Quite a few years ago, as a young dentist and constant observer of the absurd, I was intrigued by a government grant of substantial tax dollars gifted to a lucky, adventurous, and likely demented scientist to study the sex life of the African tsetse fly. Being young and curious, I had wondered about a vast and varied collection of subjects. However, my curiosity had never gone so far afield as to wonder about the amorous activities of that little bug. However, having a humorous as well as curious nature, I flippantly proposed a federal grant for the creation of a dental school for the blind. Dentistry was both financially and socially appealing, so why should those unfortunate individuals, lacking only sight, be deprived of the ability to become a member of my noble profession? The grant would necessarily be enlarged to accommodate the training of seeing tooth dogs, an absolute necessity if my venture was going to be realized...........

Elon Musk Criticized by Civil Rights Groups Over Claim That Diversity Efforts Make Flying Less Safe -  David Ingram, NBC, January 10, 2024 - Tech billionaire Elon Musk drew a swift rebuke from two of the nation’s best known civil rights organizations Wednesday, after he criticized efforts by United Airlines and Boeing to hire nonwhite pilots and factory workers. The criticism came after Musk claimed in a series of posts on X that efforts to diversify workforces at those companies have made air travel less safe. He offered no evidence for the claim, and one of his replies directed attention to a post by someone else speculating about the IQ of Black airline employees. Marc Morial, president and CEO of the National Urban League, said Musk’s statements were “abhorrent and pathetic.” He noted that Tesla, where Musk is CEO, is being sued by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for alleged abuse of Black employees, including claims of racial slurs and nooses found in the workplace. “Musk’s company not only refused to investigate complaints or take any steps to end the abuse, it viciously retaliated against employees who complained or opposed the abuse,” Morial said in a statement to NBC News, citing allegations from the suit.....................
 
The DEI double down January 18, 2024 By Alison Tempestilli - Don’t think for a minute that the Left feels any shame after being called out or criticized for the outcomes of their big DEI push on our culture. In fact, their reaction to any type of pushback to the promotion of race or “underrepresentation” over merit is to double down. We have all witnessed the painful performances of the DEI privileged, including such all-stars as White House press secretary Karine Jean- Pierre, Energy secretary Jennifer Granholm, Vice President Kamala Harris, Transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg, and the DOD’s head escapee of competent thought, Lloyd Austin. Day after day, these and other DEI installees lower the bar while they endanger and embarrass us at the same time...............   

DEI on campus: students are waking--not woking--up - January 7, 2024 By Mike McDaniel - Incredible! A sociology professor(?!) who doesn’t buy into DEI? He won’t last long: One of the seldom discussed aspects of the ongoing revolution in contemporary higher education is the problem institutions are having filling courses that are designed to impart the DEI message to students. In the mediasphere, the conversation on DEI in higher ed is mostly about, e.g., the fear that conservative “politicization” will drive enrollments down. Students, it is claimed, just won’t stand for conservative reforms of the type instituted by Florida’s Ron DeSantis. This, of course, overlooks all the work that higher-education institutions have been doing for decades to politicize curricula and drive enrollments downward via their own politicized mechanisms..........
 
Higher Education: DEI and Cargo Cultism - January 7, 2024 By Clarice Feldman - “Cargo cult” is the term used to explain how primitives imitate technological symbols in the belief that doing so will allow them to reap the benefits not otherwise available to them. The most famous examples are the balsa wood airplanes and boats created in Melanesia with the thought that real planes and ships would once again supply them with the developed world’s gifts that were dropped on these islands during World War II. The notion that everyone should get a college education and the related ideology of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are just as foolish. The underlying idea is that if you give everyone a college diploma, they will reap the benefits of what used to take high-level natural talents and hard work. Their adoption has diminished the value of higher education, substantially raised its cost, saddled thousands of students with large college loans they will not be likely to repay because the course of study they chose will never result in the high salaries they imagined the receipt of a diploma would yield. Until these ludicrous notions took hold, the average IQ to perform at college level was 115 to 130. At the present time, the mean IQ of college students is the same as the general population -- 102..........

College and politics: the smart thing to do is shut up  - January 7, 2024 By Mike McDaniel -The smartest thing to do is probably nothing. Colleges would be wisest to simply shut up about political issues. Focus on education, let individual professors stick their secondary sexual characteristics into the defamation and reputation meat grinder. If the temptation is irresistible, opine on the side of civilization and good rather than evil, but as the old saying goes: “no good deed goes unpunished,” particularly when the Mummified Meat Puppet Administration (MMPA) is in charge:............
 
Billionaire Bill Ackman renounces 2024 Dems over DEI efforts, plans think tank to probe higher ed - By Melissa Koenig Jan. 12, 2024 - Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman said he can no longer be “associated with” the Democratic Party over its support of “racist” diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. In an interview on CNBC Friday, the Pershing Square Capital Management founder said that the Dems had “morphed” into woke martyrs. “I was a Bill Clinton Democrat and what the party has morphed into is not something I want to be associated with,” he said on “Squawk Box.” The 57-year-old Ackman announced he is planning to form a think tank to probe higher education in the US following his success in forcing ousted Harvard president Claudine Gay to resign......
 
‘Diversity is a strength’ is just something stupid people say  - January 17, 2024 By Selwyn Duke - What has so often struck me, and irked me, about the embrace of “diversity” dogma is how profoundly unintellectual it is. A wiseguy might say it’s really a simple IQ test, though a wise guy understands it’s a soul and sagacity test. To wit: To the extent that a person accepts as imperative diversity, DEI, CRT, wokeness in general — or whatever the latest shiny anti-Truth thing is — he is a vacuous know-nothing, not just unqualified, but dangerously ignorant. Two recent examples are disgraced ex-Harvard president Claudine Gay and Johns Hopkins Hospital’s chief diversity officer Sherita Hill Golden, now infamous for disseminating a “privilege hit list.” Affirmative-action hires both, each one is the kind of woman about whom ex-radio giant and now podcaster Michael Savage would say, “In my day, the highest she would’ve gone is owning a brassiere store on Queens Blvd. — and after 19 years, she’d have had two brassiere stores.”...............
 
DIE Training at University of Washington Forces White Staff to Answer How They Are Working ‘Every Day to Stop the Killing of Black People’  -  American News Jan 15, 2024  -  University of Washington Health in Seattle, Wash. has mandated its white employees to undergo extensive diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) training that forces them to yield positions of power to non-whites to atone for the racism that they were allegedly naturally born with, per documents obtained by End Wokeness and shared to X.  The DEI Training also requires white employees to learn how to be “antiracist” and forces them to provide examples of their so-called white privilege and fragility. It also instructs employees to take courses on unlearning the systemic racism that they were inherently born with, according to documents.................
 
Civil Rights Laws Killed the Constitution - The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was supposed to be temporary. Instead, the law paved the way for progressives to conquer the United States. It needs to go. A minor panic has broken out among the chattering class after a few conservative commentators showed an interest in questioning the civil rights revolution and its accompanying legal framework. Liberal and conservative publications alike have expressed grave concern that anyone might question the need for an oppressive bureaucracy that has spent trillions of dollars and wielded unprecedented state power to detect the slightest amount of wrongthink in the public and private sectors. While the ideological core of wokeness may have involved a heavy dose of cultural Marxism, the juridical and moral vehicle used to advance the ideology was clearly civil rights law. The fear of being called mean names has driven conservatives away from many critical battles, but if the right cannot face the fact that civil rights law has played a central role in the destruction of the nation, then the movement simply has no future.............
