slicknick I ran across this one today



Though I dont blame the "rich" per say, there are many people just seemingly being led around like cattle to the next feed trough.

When I first looked at your post, I misread it and actually thought you had posted... "there are many people just seemingly being led around like cattle to the next feud trough." It made perfect sense!

The shoe does fit!

Feuds, controversey, they sell. They distract.

This conversation simplifies some of the simple basics of this perceived mess quite well in places, including alot of key words and talking points that get tossed around these days. Especially in light of the other posts in this thread.
DE&I...CRT...Whiteness...Diversity...Stereotype

From Description:
Chloé Valdary and Jordan Peterson discuss her personal brand of compassionate anti-racism. Chloé has been featured in Psychology Today and the NY Times.

Apparently companies are calling her saying things like: "we messed up our business by embracing DE&I initiatives, can you help"?

I hope the powers that be (and all the people who dont know they have power) realize the destruction this whole racist DE&I thing they are forcing is causing, and how wrong it is and see that it doesnt work before it cripples us or causes much more division and strife.
(I expect it from at least the ones that don't WANT that as the final outcome.)



I also hope that Chloé Valdary's technique isnt also messed up, and doesnt also promote treating people differently based on race or other "category".

People call others racist for pointing out who is gifted by gov as being a minority. I guess it's supposed to be like the N word, and never mentioned by some of us no matter the context.

And the left calls White people fragile.

But yes, all people groups can be classified as racially discriminatory, but "racist" as a word is a farce these days.
