University DEI training. Which four people do you leave to die?

https://twitchy.com/brettt-3136/2023/03/15/dei-training-forces-professors-to-choose-which-intersectional-identities-theyd-leave-to-die/

Also, I'm definitely taking the racist, armed police officer with me. We're going to another planet, and he's armed. He'll be the most useful person. Also Short Round will likely be useful.



Leave behind:

The druggie accountant
The university administrator
The gay, vegan athlete
The disabled novelist

The old & disabled (me) stay behind.  Don't need a strung out mess dealing with a lack of drugs.  And they're going to be trying to increase the population - I don't see a gay guy being much help with that.

Everybody else can get over any problems they might have & deal with surviving.

Actually, the 12 y.o. makes sense IF its a female.  When a little bit older (15-16), she could be helpful by adding to the population.  And, being a younger starter, if she survives the pregnancies, could add quite a few more people to the total.  It might be necessary for her to have one pregnancy a year however.  ;/

Can you imagine the shitstorm if that was a predominantly white demonstration protesting for anything?
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

With San Fran raising expectations among the left for reparations I fear we're going a lot more of that across the country and that it could get ugly.

Here's at least one "trans" guy that has retained a modicum of sense. The question was, "why aren't kids in the hood going trans?" His answer:

Quote
Well because the typical demographic is upper middle class white kids of progressive parents. for two reasons. They have time and money to worry about such things, and have been conditioned to believe through Critical Theory that they are an oppressor and there is no way they can ever escape that status, so they see this as a way to join an oppressed class for which they are celebrated for instead of condemned.

If I were 18 again and applying for scholarships, you can better damned well bet I'm checking the box that would most likely get me a scholarship, even if it's nothing remotely close to what I actually am.

What? You say I'm straight but I checked LGBTIQZKG@!!!~EIEIO on the application?

Yeah, prove it. If you try to deny/pull my scholarship, I'll have you know that I identify as 250 genders, 100 of them LGBTIQZKG@!!!~EIEIO, 75 of them straight, and the rest of them fluid. Prove which one filled out the application.

Again, prove that I'm not while I go lawyer shopping AND publicity shopping.

"Native American" was a preferred choice on scholarship applications when I was going to college. There were also a couple of very fair-skinned immigrant students from South Africa or Rhodesia who identified as "African-American." (Don't remember if they were born OUS or if it was only their parents.)

And claiming to be part Indian is the one thing I really don't hold against Elizabeth Warren. I see nothing wrong with someone gaming the system if the system is wrong and racially (or now, alphabet people) biased.

Ah, the Elizabeth Warren approach.


"There were also a couple of very fair-skinned immigrant students from South Africa or Rhodesia who identified as "African-American." (Don't remember if they were born OUS or if it was only their parents.)"

I've mentioned that a number of times in the context of an old neighbor from South Africa. When she immigrated she couldn't understand why she couldn't check African American and didn't understand why the big hoops HR people were getting pissed with her. As she understood it, she was an African, and she was now in America...
