A top U.S. Forest Service executive told his employees to probe their own unconscious bias on everything from race and sexuality to the disabled and fat people, asking them to use an unproven assessment tool to explore their feelings.

Given that I’m almost 55 and 35-40 pounds overweight, does that mean that I am no longer ‘fat’ but ‘mass challenged’, in the PC world of big government? Since I am nearing 55, am I now ‘longevity challenged’? As gravity is also taking an effect on my physique, am I ‘gravitationally challenged’? With some hair loss, am I ‘folically challenged’?
I drive a school bus. The kids I drive are now officially called ‘Complex Needs Students’. Before that they were called ‘Special Needs Students’ and years before that, ‘Special Ed Students’. To me they are just kids, gifts from God, though often challenging for their parents.
Lefties like to categorize people and divide them into small groups that they can label. In the end, all this PC talk is purely lefty, touchy feely BS.
They need to probe their unconscious bias in favor of fascist statism.
We have a COMPLEX NEEDS Government!!! NO offense meant to those sweet kids!
United we stand divided...we fall.
if we refuse to accept these inane definitions they can not divide us!
AMEN!
That's DE-CREAMED, you RACIST!!!
😃☕️
Decreaminated if yall PLEASE!!
An “unconscious” bias is what you would say if you were drunk, a “subconscious” bias is what you would like to say when you are sober, but think instead. :-)
When I was a kid, I likely would have called the kids I drive, ‘retarded’. Not considered a nice word now, but could that word not be used correctly when describing some of the actions of many gubmit beaureaucrats and politicians in both the US and Canada? As in “Obviously RETARDED civil servants wish to probe their own unconscious biases on the public’s dime.” On second thought, perhaps the word ‘retarded’ should be replaced by ‘irresponsible’.
the “progressives”? are morally retarded, intellectually dishonest...and emotionally..DRIVEN!!!
Do you also “wear a “Brar?”

Well, I go to lava’try.
Probe this, D-bag.
We are on the cusp of social chaos, cultural disintegration; and these antics are both closely related to both cause & effect.
There is no reason for anyone not to have normal racial and sexual preferences. If the Left really wanted to deal with a real problem--that is those who cross a line by doing nasty things to people, just because they are different--they would focus on the real problem; not trying to create absurd guilt complexes. The latter only makes for more nasty things, to far more people, not less.
On the subject of the compulsions involved, see Compassion Or Compulsion?.

Ahhhhh.....The Forest Circus.
“How do I feel? I feel like sticking a Pulaski up your ass. Go bother someone else.”
Lets Talk Racessism!!
Great! Song by Monty Python. Wish I could remember all the lines.
You use terminology I am familiar with!
As a retired Forest Service employee-I am so glad I am Free!!!!! Way back when it was a pretty good place work and customer service was practiced. I was in a rural area my entire career, not the concrete jungle.
Congratulations on your retirement! That means you’ve won!
I was a “Trail Ape” clearing trail with a Pulaski and a chainsaw in the mountains. Best shape of my life.
