I remember a diversity training course I had once. It was a three day session. I decided to be the bad guy, and challenged virtually everything he said. It was so much fun. After breaks the “facilitator” was always disappointed that I returned.

Went through on of the brain-washing sessions at GE once. The Facilitator was asking the female employees if they would report 'sexual harrassment'.
One of my co-workers said ' report it? we SCORE it!'

Hah! When I was in the Navy, they had some BS class, "Rights and Responsibilities" or some such rot. .

One of the “facilitators” was a black senior chief, (E-8). He was railing about the Klan, saying that the Klan was active in the Navy. I brought up the Nation of Islam. I asked if he thought they were racist. I suggested that he use NOI as an example, rather than the KKK.

I then added, that is if he thought that black people could be racists.

The exchange was pretty heated. I thought he was going to have a stroke.

When the most recent President of the Univ. of VT arrived here a few years ago he told a press conference that his first priority was going to be "DIVERSITY"!

Having hired a few UVM grads over the years and found a good number of them to be sore excuses for college grads, I wrote him that his first priority should be "EDUCATION"!

No response.

As a former Ford Motor Co. middle manager from the late seventies through the early ninties I was subjected to several diversity courses, as well as the racial ans sexual preferences. I predicted that it would one of the main things that would bring the company down.

I'm so glad I left that mindless corporate environment years ago.

LOL! My police agency was required to go through this nonsense. If I recall, I calculated that about one million man hours were wasted on this crap. The class consisted of the usual white males bad, everyone else victims. We pretty much tore the instructor a new one.

Good for you for being a thorn in their side. My husband endured dt once at a University — a short-lived job — and came home LIVID. Let’s see — the government pays people with taxpayer money to berate white males. Stinks to high heaven.

I was successful at avoiding it.....until I retired.... The word "Diversity" nauseates me....

I choose to believe we are all more alike than different....and NO...your skin color does NOT make you entitled to special consideration.
