  • Please stop. I literally made this thread a while back

    I believe in people getting opportunities. What I don’t like are thought police, or thought correction officers.

    Left authoritarianism is still authoritarianism.

    I also don’t take it for granted that someone talking about “empathy” or “compassion” necessarily doesn’t have ulterior motives.

  • So riddle me this, why is it hard to believe that DEI type policies could be plot by some organization or country against the U.S. when there’s literally a field manual which says that such policies should be used against “fascists”. People on Lemmy call the U.S. imperialist all the time.

  • People seriously need to chill the fuck out with the Nazi comparisons.

    Trump won popular vote, that’s literally a democracy.

    I wish the Republicans had more class in dealing with political opponents, or in getting their point across about some issues, but they don’t. Their lack of finesse just makes people overreact. These overreactions are reminding me of the J6ers, though.

  • “To lower morale and with it, production, be pleasant to inefficient workers; give them undeserved promotions. Discriminate against efficient workers; complain unjustly about their work.”

    So is this why DEI exists?

  • I am sorry but no, I won’t go more into this. I could be wrong, but I am seriously not okay with some of the things .ml folks get away with saying, like it’s okay to put kulaks to death. This is why I am having such a response to this after coming across the CRT and DEI articles.

    Everyone who doesn’t have generational wealth is working class. Period, doesn’t matter how much they have in the short term. But I even disagree with the whole guillotine uber wealthy folks thing too. No one needs to die, people need to chill out with the extremist shit. You don’t fix wrong with doing more wrong. Otherwise what’s the difference between you and authoritarians?

  • I don’t know how right I am, I just know that the James Lindsay article makes sense based on what I know about Marxism, CRT and Stalinism, and my own interactions with Marxists on Lemmy. There’s a real threat here, and people need to be careful. From my reading of the more philosophical articles, it seems there is some supporting evidence, but it would need a blog post to put it all together with citations, etc etc. Not interested.

  • Authoritarians leftists only use the “left” and “progressive” moniker to make themselves appealing, they’re the same kind of greedy and selfish people who’d kill you for their own group or goals.

  • I suggest using google scholar and looking up some stuff yourself with keywords, it’s not my job to educate you. I posted easy and accessible articles on purpose, but there is a lot of academic material available that’s harder to parse for shitpost reading.

  • Can we stop asking people who are on the brink of death and suffering greatly to sacrifice themselves for a bunch of able bodied people who refuse to stand up and sacrifice themselves for the disabled

  • Good luck, hope it gets resolved soon and you don’t have any bad affects on your treatment, this sucks

  • While I wholeheartedly agree with unbiased, fair and equal employment access and treatments, DEI has a more global agenda via Neo-Marxist ideology

    There’s nothing wrong with countries helping out other countries! I honestly want more of that. I just sincerely dislike the Neo-Marxist mindset that it’s okay to dismantle someone else’s home country to help out their own.

    Edit also, if you consider the U.S. history with regional destabilization of LatAm countries, there are a lot of ghosts here which are coming back to haunt the US. No one has clean hands, historically.

  • Well, Stalin for example very famously stole from the middle class, or kulaks, made their houses into hostels for the very poor, and then put the middle class people to death via gulags.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kulak

    Any system which judges people as others to be exploited and killed isn’t any better than right-wing authoritarianism.

    Authoritarianism is fucked up, doesn’t matter if it’s left or right.

    Edit, even if you look at China and Vietnam as current examples, they are both hardly exemplary towards LGBT or minority rights. Hardliner Marxists would also say they’re too capitalist.

    Edit some connections between CRT and Marxism, both are tools for Neo-Marxists

  • I got banned from .bz for suggesting that DEI and CRT have links to Neo-Marxism, and got called a bigot for it.

    If someone doesn’t want to read my posts, they don’t have to, it’s their right not to 🤷‍♀️

    But it is unconscionable and egregious to call someone a bigot because they don’t fit your narrow and extreme ideology. I am literally the exact opposite of a bigot, lol

  • I am in the US and its gotten very political but as pretty much a peon do I just tune the stuff out thinking its fear mongering? Or should I closely pay attention to it?

  • Please, how many non-Korean politicians are in their congress? Korea is also so ethnically homogeneous, so it’s not even fair to ask that question. I care about civil rights and liberties of minorities, my problem is that America is constantly getting fucked by one type of propaganda or another because it has an actual democracy (in at least the blue and purple states).

    Yes, some American southern states actually do systemic racism type things, that’s undeniable if you objectively look at their policies. America, however, is not a monolith.

  • Trying to tell if someone is a patriot based on their race or sexual / gender orientation is fucked. There are and have been many straight, cis, white traitors of the U.S. government. It’s just insane and unreasonable to expect that just because someone is white or cis or male then they’re safe or want the best for their country. Truly magical thinking devoid from reality and facts.
