When the wokeists in the HR departments gained more power than the business sides of corporations then merit disappeared. It happened to me.

For fifty years, the only people it was legal to discriminate against were straight, white males, and discrimination against them was required by law.

It will take generations to undue the damage, if it is even allowed.

In the TV biography of Michael Savage on NewsNation, one of his sons said: “When my father got his degrees no one in the country in academia would hire any white men. No one. So he had to abandon that.”

The quotas for minorities and females were so far from being filled that they would hire practically anyone but a white man. Not even giving them an interview.

Michael Savage (Michael Weiner) has a PhD in Nutritional Ethnomedicine from the University of California, Berkeley, and Master’s degrees in Medical Botany and Medical Anthropology from the University of Hawaii, and a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from Queens College.

In the first half of the 1900's females and blacks thought that they were being picked on. And it was mostly true.

So they took on the mantle of victim. That did not end well.

Following The Great War Italy and Germany thought they got screwed. It was mostly true.

So they took on the mantle of victim. That did not end well.

In the late 1800s the Japanese thought that they were being forcefully dragged into interacting with a world they had no real interest in. It was mostly true.

So they took on the mantle of victim. That did not end well.

In the late 1800s the Irish thought they were being occupied and oppressed. It was mostly true.

So they took on the mantle of victim. That did not end well.

You can oppose an unjust system and that is good. But once you take up the mantle of victim it never ends well.

And it’s still true of ubiquitous television advertising.
The bumbling oaf, the fool, the butt of jokes is the white male. Saved by a heroic and intelligent woman or black person who tells the right insurance, the best vacation package, the superior over the counter item and so on.

Seems harmless but that is part of the brainwashing that truly influences people growing up. Why marry a bumbling fool? What value is a dad who is a jerk? Why hire a man?


While there’s no exact number, estimates suggest an average person encounters thousands of ads daily, leading to millions in a lifetime, with some sources citing over 2 million TV commercials alone for adults over a lifetime, but this varies greatly by media habits, with digital ads adding significantly to the total.

Approximately 4,000 to 10,000 ads a day for the average
person.

Happened to me, as well. Corporate HR departments started fill up with angry white liberal women, angry black women, and gay men 30+ years ago. A straight white male doesn’t stand a chance anymore... So after 24 years in the financial services industry and area bank president title, I was persona non grata... There were three positions in the corporation all eliminated on the same day. We were replaced by younger wokesters that had the same job, but a different title. Every interview I went to was with one or more of the three types described above, and I knew they were just going through the motions to be able to avoid accusations of discrimination.

Executive Order 13583

Executive Order 13583— Establishing a Coordinated Government-wide Initiative to Promote Diversity and Inclusion in the Federal Workforce
EXECUTIVE ORDER

ESTABLISHING A COORDINATED GOVERNMENT-WIDE INITIATIVE TO PROMOTE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION IN THE FEDERAL WORKFORCE

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and in order to promote the Federal workplace as a model of equal opportunity, diversity, and inclusion, it is hereby ordered as follows:

Section 1. Policy. Our Nation derives strength from the diversity of its population and from its commitment to equal opportunity for all. We are at our best when we draw on the talents of all parts of our society, and our greatest accomplishments are achieved when diverse perspectives are brought to bear to overcome our greatest challenges.

A commitment to equal opportunity, diversity, and inclusion is critical for the Federal Government as an employer. By law, the Federal Government’s recruitment policies should “endeavor to achieve a work force from all segments of society.” (5 U.S.C. 2301(b)(1)). As the Nation’s largest employer, the Federal Government has a special obligation to lead by example. Attaining a diverse, qualified workforce is one of the cornerstones of the merit-based civil service.

Prior Executive Orders, including but not limited to those listed below, have taken a number of steps to address the leadership role and obligations of the Federal Government as an employer. For example, Executive Order 13171 of October 12, 2000 (Hispanic Employment in the Federal Government), directed

Spend a day trying to figure out how many H1B visa holders are here in the USA from India soaking up tech jobs. Nobody will give you the real numbers. It is actually orders of magnitude more than the public has been led to believe. It is a financial disaster for millions of unwitting American families.

Everything in your post is valid...and it is still not going to stop what is coming.

It may be decades or longer—but it is coming.

Name calling and shaming is not going to stop it...because the left is not going to stop...and there will be a breaking point.

Been going on a LONG time. In 1973, I applied for a job with the local electric provider. The black HR person told me the next two hires had to be women. This was before anyone had tried suing for reverse discrimination.

But once you take up the mantle of victim it never ends well.

The Leftists have been throwing massive effort to reinforce a "ladder of victimhood" where the more boxes you can check off the higher you're allowed to rise. It's their personal Peter Principle where the unqualified not only rise to their level of obvious incompetence, they're often rewarded for it and promoted higher.

1973.... This was before anyone had tried suing for reverse discrimination.

And also before it was acceptable to simply declare yourself a woman and qualify for the job that way...

Every damn COMMERCIAL!

I saw an ad yesterday with an all-Caucasian family and my jaw involuntarily dropped open. And the dad was manly and smart!

Happened to me and a group of male engineers.

We bailed and started our own company. I easily make 4-5X more than the CEO of my old publicly-traded company, and will get a huge whack when I sell the company.

Turn it into an opportunity.

It’s not hard to outperform DEI-driven companies.
