At a “diversity” training session at the Fortune 500 defense contractor where I worked we were told that if we committed too many diversity sins we would be “sentenced to reeducation.” Those are the exact words, sentenced to reeducation. Reeducation was a one week off campus seminar held near the mother ship division 1,200 miles away. At the time travel was by need only. It didn’t take a genius to figure out it was much cheaper to fire a diversity sinner.
Incidentally, the diversity trainer was a totally humorless communist émigré from a (if I recall) Nicaragua.
That's pretty much what everyone in Saigon was desperate to avoid forty years ago, clinging to those last helicopters chopping over the U.S. Embassy.
At least that's how the American media represented the situation, when Congress "lost its guts" and allowed Saigon's "liberators" from the North to rename the late "Paris of Southeast Asia."
And, if I remember correctly, that's pretty much what the Khmer Rouge said was happening when they herded anyone who could read, pretty much anyone wearing glasses, out of Phnom Penh and into the countryside for a proper "reeducation." The U.S. media passed that along dutifully, as well, and then went silent.
And well after the fact they comforted themselves over the two million sets of bones those "liberators" left behind them by weeping crocodile tears, bravely making a movie about "the Killing Fields."
It's no surprise the re-educator was a Sandinista.
What ive done before and it is fun and that is to point out the internal inconsistencies during “diversity training” and to do so using a concerned “npr voice”. Act like a super liberal pc fool but argue that the diversity trainer is not diverse enough in THEIR opinions. I had to go with a coworker who knows me and it was hilarious how much piling on one can do to these diversity trainers and they have no ground to criticize you at all.
We had one trainer convinced that being unique hurt other peoples feelings so that we all had to not be diverse. It is fun to watch a recently educated lib twist in the wind like a flag in a tornado.
