Continuation of DEI from airline thread. I thought this was timely.

Ok Rachel Maddow

Classic article attributed to Hanoi Jane? I’m doubtful she penned it, but it might be the only time I’ve even partially agreed with anything she’s said or written. I guess even Hollywood elites have their hot buttons (DEI and bad chocolate). “Hershey, You Owe Us an Apology Jane Fonda March 2, 2023 I know I’m being highly presumptuous in speaking for the women of the world, but I’m old and I can handle the heat. Shame on you Hershey for slapping half of the worlds population in the face with your latest HerShe campaign. Your misguided decision to highlight a man posing as a woman as your symbol of female empowerment on National Woman’s day is offensive to all of us. With approximately 3.5 billion real women roaming this earth, you decided as a company that Herman Munster in drag best represents the incredible strength, empathy, brilliance, grace, and beauty of us women. In all fairness, I’m guessing that 3 or 4 of your recent DEI hires got together and with their academically rigorous gender studies, women’s studies, queer studies, and/or lesbian dance theory majors (for accuracy’s sake I’m hoping they are Bachelor of Science rather than Bachelor of Arts degrees) decided that a man somehow makes a better woman than a true woman. Then, these seriously confused employees, convinced a group of seemingly rational and mentally stable executives into signing off on the insanity. I’m sure they convinced you of the value of the large green check-mark the company would earn on the annual DEI scorecard. The only positive thing this decision to champion a man as a symbol for woman’s empowerment did, was highlight how unnecessary and divisive the DEI influence on companies is. Truthfully, while it allows the aforementioned worthless degree holders to obtain a lucrative job inciting mistrust and division within companies, DEI makes no positive contribution to the workplace. The DEI label might sound good, but the execution results in decisions like this by otherwise intelligent executives. I’m still hoping you’ll do the right thing as a company and apologize to all of the women of the world for insulting us, but I won’t hold my breath. My final advice for you as a company is to focus on making decent chocolate. Your time would be better spent buying Milka’s or UK Cadbury’s chocolate recipe instead of business as usual selling the brown paraffin wax bars you call chocolate. If you can’t obtain a good recipe, at least let Cadburys North America use the recipe from England so we can enjoy good chocolate on this side of the world.”

He def doesn’t, but then again he has serious mental/psychological issues that just might be clouding his thinking. Why are we letting the lunatics run this asylum?

When we (DOD) don’t even try to secure information/data. https://techcrunch.com/2023/02/21/sensitive-united-states-military-emails-spill-online/

This incident was a local government (state backed though). https://www.military.com/history/time-world-war-ii-veterans-overthrew-corrupt-local-government-tennessee.html

All right, which one of you clowns just had to make it home?

Bidens been lying about his accomplishments since he was a jr senator and way before Santos was a twinkle in his dads eye. Bidens been scum for 40 plus years and a great example how to lie constantly and get away with it

Ben and Jerry’s founders used to help coordinate anti nuke events and demonstrations in Burlington and Pburgh in the late 1980s and then the next week they’d have reps at the Plattsburgh BX selling all of us 1/2 price ice cream. It’s owned by Unilever now but that was back when they were smaller and privately owned.

it sounds like she was a diesel, so you might not want to see it.

An interesting discussion about current events (including Ukraine war) and the impact on inflation, monetary policy, energy policy and what's headed our way. It's long but pretty comprehensive.

I'm shocked we are even having a conversation if this rump ranger's actions were acceptable (commander or not). He's got serious mental health issues and needs to go.

I completely agree, but your ridicule of GA's 1.7 million who voted correctly given 2 shitty choices, was misguided. The GOP def screwed the pooch, but lets be honest, even a good candidate would have struggled given the fervor the leftist have for tanking this nation.

Another wtf ... I'm hoping but not expecting (with our current military insanity) ole Christopher gets a boot up the arse. https://www.gadgetany.com/news/lt-col-christopher-schilling-military-officer-calls-cops-on-mom-for-objecting-to-polysexual-posters-at-childs-school/

No, 1.7 million saw the numbnuts warnock and thought, no way in hell, and then said I'd rather have someone brighter than POTUS but still not all there.

It appears that Tulsi is just maturing and gaining wisdom as she ages. The left’s ideology is shown hollow and without foundation as you gain wisdom and experience. When you abandon any absolute truth, there is nothing left…it becomes all about feelings. I’m glad she’s continuing to grow. I like her and would guess that we’d agree on things and disagree on things, just like any two people would. I’d take her as a leader over most anybody else in current political leadership in our country.

Be fair Pooter, they’re wearing strong virtue signaling armbands and even changed their logos in the team room. Strong signal sent🤨

Another Bee classic.

That was crazy. The called back goals must have really put Argentina off their game. I'm shocked. I'm not a fan of any SouthAmerican team since they all, along with the Spaniards and Portuguese, dive like mofos, but I'd still hate to see saudi advance.

The congressman should have simply responded with the ever popular “your an idiot” reply used by all of us linguistically gifted internet warriors. What a rookie.

A little mean .... but still spot on and funny.

If it were only libs we’d be OK. With the numerous leftist serving and miraculously re-elected, it’s not looking good for the nation. I’m not sure we can survive intact with too many years of Build back Better

Saddened we don’t hold our elected officials more accountable. We get what we deserve when we keep electing into office the same douchebags. The abusive and totalitarian handling of Covid (mandates/demands/punishments) should have elicited a strong response from all of us.
