An interesting quirk about diversity roles at corporations
An interesting quirk about diversity roles at corporations - Tom Knighton"...Diversity, equity and inclusion leaders, who were hired in waves to help companies achieve an ethnically balanced workforce after George Floyd’s murder in 2020, are being phased out...
...Another survey showed that Black employees represent only 3.8% of chief diversity officers overall, with white people making up 76.1% of the roles
...Let’s remember that in 2020, there were literal mobs setting fire to buildings and destroying private property.

...Let’s remember that in 2020, there were literal mobs setting fire to buildings and destroying private property.
People were attacked and physically beaten during some of these supposedly “mostly peaceful” protests.
- Now they’re being laid off because, frankly, what do they really bring to the table now?
- The fire has gone out of Black Lives Matter to some degree. While they might get vocal, they’re not exactly burning down entire business districts. There’s a lot less risk in pissing them off.
- And DEI personnel don’t do anything to help make a better/cheaper product. If anything, they help keep bad personnel on and create overhead that doesn’t benefit the bottom line...

Report: Some lab-grown meat pushed by WEF and Bill Gates as a remedy for climate change is made of 'immortalized' cancer cells - TheBlaze
Report: Some lab-grown meat pushed by WEF and Bill Gates as a remedy for climate change is made of 'immortalized' cancer cells - TheBlaze:
Technocrats appear keen to preclude the masses from eating real meat in hopes of combatting the specter of climate change and making more money. While there is a significant push under way for people to surrender steaks, burgers, and hot dogs and instead eat bugs and algae, climate alarmists and elites alike are also hyping so-called synthetic "meat."
This alternative may prove too much to swallow for many consumers in light of the present lack of health data about what such laboratory productions might do to consumers, as well as Bloomberg's recent report underscoring how synthetic meat is, in many cases, cancer.

The Solution to Ballot Fraud - American Thinker
The Solution to Ballot Fraud - American Thinker - By Jay Valentine
In 2000, the national realization was that election fraud is industrial-scale, committed by election commissions or with their acquiescence.
- The irresistible force is mail-in ballots, nonexistent signature verification, phantom voter rolls, a feckless Republican Party, Republican governors donating tax money to a George Soros–funded entity to clean voter rolls — election commissions changing ZIP codes so mail-in ballots stack up — courts refusing to remove dead people from voter rolls unless they miss two consecutive elections, and a Republican presidential candidate who thinks he can win with ballot-harvesting.
In 2000, the national realization was that election fraud is industrial-scale, committed by election commissions or with their acquiescence.
It is a sovereign crime.
- The 2020 realization is that voter integrity teams cannot remove phantoms from voter rolls — even with death certificates...

Challenging Net Zero with Science
Challenging Net Zero with Science: Lindzen-Happer-CO2 Coalition Paper Released - CO2 Coalition
- Net Zero Plans Are Dangerous and Unsupported by Science and the Scientific Method
- Net Zero initiatives of governments and private organizations are scientifically invalid and will lead to worldwide impoverishment and starvation if implemented, according to a paper published by the CO2 Coalition.
- The 46-page paper details how the objectives of Net Zero to eliminate the use of fossil fuels and the emissions of greenhouse gases are based on analytical methods that violate fundamental tenets of the scientific method...
The paper says Net Zero regulations and actions are scientifically invalid because they:
- Fabricate data or omit data that contradict their conclusions...
- Rely on computer models that do not work...
- Rely on findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that are government opinions, not science...MUCH MORE at link!
