Where are we right now? What are we doing? I'm reading a news and content aggregation system known as Lemmy which pulls the current world to my fingertips. It separates everything into digestible categories so that you can separate based on topic of interest. This can then be used to grasp the context of what society has done with their day, and recap recent events, or just show you a funny comic if you need to be cheered up. I can even browse a community of nothing but cat pictures.
It sounds like an amazing service, so imagine my surprise when I find out that the world around me is just....ya know.....batshit insane.
We're discussing the current ruling government who's PUNISHING people for having empathy, and basic common courtesy towards other people. DEI has been in the news the past few days as being some controversial concept. So I looked it up, and find out it means "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion".
What the hell is so controversial about that??? "Hey Tom, wanna go bowling with us later?" "What?" "We're going bowling after work. Would you like to join us?" "Join you? HOW DARE YOU INCLUDE ME! WE ARE DIFFERENT RACES YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!" "What.....what just happened?" "I WILL NOT BE PART OF YOUR DEI PROPAGANDIST BULLSHIT!!! NEXT YOU'LL TELL ME YOU WANT ME TO TALK TO A TRANS PERSON!!!" "Tom....your daughter is trans...." "HEEEEEE IS A HEEEEEE!!!!" "Tom......ok, ya know what? Fuck you." "That's more LIKE it!"
I do not understand the world we live in today, where being different and getting along is somehow a bad thing.
They don't know or care what DEI is. They just know that white men like themselves now have to compete with non-white non-men for jobs.
So now they have to make themselves marketable, or shut that whole thing down so they can go back to living in the boys club. And since self-improvement is "woke", they choose the latter.
They get it fed to them during their 2 Minutes Hate and that's all that matters.
It used to be Antifa. They were staunchly against antifa. You know what you call someone who is anti-antifa? Fa. You call them fa.
If you need to improve to be able to compete, you're not good enough. That's never a pleasant thought. Preventing competition is one way to avoid the possibility of having to face it.
