All I am saying is no one gets rage boners about critical race theory (CRT) anymore.
It's not as trendy anymore. DEI is the current flavor.

Remember how quickly the CRT panic came and went? The same people who scream NPC at anyone who disagrees with them sure do act in unison.Step 1: Look out for the trendy thing conservatives are getting rage boners about
Step 2: Find the trendy rage boner inducing thing in your personal life- reaching to find an example is encouraged!
Step 3: Concoct an anecdote about the rage boner inducing thing and post about it on a karate forum
Step 4: Take a bath in all the rage boners you have created among the people posting in your thread
Back when Bush was president, the trendy thing was gay marriage
Obama: still gay marriage for a bit, but then the Tea Party was created to oppose anything he thought about or did (tan suit, grey poupon, etc.)
Trump: find anything you don't like and/or identify with, call it woke
I'm willing to bet 5 years ago most people didn't know what DEI stands for.. but now that it's the trendy thing to hate, everyone does.
The most recent story I heard last week from my admin assist whose husband is a miner was that he was asked by his supervisor to go change a flat tire on a female miner's equipment, which is a task the person operating said equipment must be able to perform. He refused as he should. Her job, not his.Do you? The website links that come up when I put that in show:
1st: A site talking about getting more women into the role
2: A site talking about a discrimination lawsuit over hiring practices
3.-end of first page: more sites trying to attract women into the role.
Where is the site that says "women in mining positions incapable of doing job?" Its sure not reflecting in my search, even with more targeted phrasing, nothing comes up.
The guy provided his source, I'll take him at his word as I think based off the subject of the articles there are labor shortages and it sure seems like theyd rather have women in those roles than nobody, but I can imagine for the men working those jobs theyre pissed when someone gets in who cant do it and gets special treatment.
I was just being cheeky as it sounded exactly like a story I remember seeing for years.

Just because it is not in the headlines does not mean it is gone. Did Florida stop actually starting to represent the views of the general public in higher ed?Remember how quickly the CRT panic came and went? The same people who scream NPC at anyone who disagrees with them sure do act in unison.
Those are them fighting words me no likeThat sounds like commie-gobbledogook. We don't like your kind round hurr! Get out!

Nah, guys like that are ok with diversity as long as a couple of things happen:
-It's small. So if 20-30% are nonwhite, it's fine. I mean, it's not 1950 anymore.
-They're at the bottom. It's cool if the oil change guy, or the hotel housekeepers, or the bar backs are nonwhite. But seeing too many them in upper management or a "corporate group" will make them feel uneasy.
"I don't mind diversity at all, my lawn guy is Mexican and he's awesome. Always on time and does the job cheap!!"
*After Mexican lane guy buys the house nextdoor:
"I wonder if he's here legally!"
The main reason I get a rage boner over it is that I see my company lay off good people because we can't afford them anymore, yet a week later they announce a newly created position, chief DEI officer. I know that salary is being paid for with the layoffs.
I don't mind if they talk about dei or have events celebrating diversity, but stop pretending it's a critical part of a business that needs it's own highly paid leaders and staff. Especially if it costs me staff who are actually critical.
DEI should just be part of HR's existing responsibilities.

LOLLook closer, my av is not what you think it is
Nice. I forgot the "as long as they live far from me" factor.
I can't remember where I saw it but it's been found that white flight takes hold despite social class similarity. So even when blacks, Latinos and even Asians (yes, Asians) of the same social class move in, whites start moving out.
What’s your point? Even black people try to move out of black neighborhoods.Nice. I forgot the "as long as they live far from me" factor.
