    Imagine living your life thinking “I should be able to say whatever I want without consequences and I can’t so I’m censored”.

    Weird that literally every place I have ever worked I have yet to come across a self important whiteman that didn’t say everything that was on their mind.  I am afraid of what they must be holding back.

    This just shows that 57% lied on the survey. 
    Who doesn’t self censor at work? Common sense says you don’t complain about upper management beyond your circle. You may make stupid jokes like “that’s what she said” in your close circle but you won’t say in a larger setting.
    Women self censor too. 
  • Tim SimmonsTim Simmons Posts: 9,335
    Of course everyone checks themselves. 43% just want to be whiny dicks about it and blame others for having to moderate their feelings and thoughts through words.

    Old white men complaining about DEI is about as tiresome as young white men complaining about DEI.  I have no problem getting jobs and I’m no longer a young buck nor am I a person of color. What I am not is a sniveling whining douche that complains about the woe of white man, newsflash, there is nothing to be woeful of.  If you are complaining about how hard it is to be white you probably don’t have a handful of firing neurons in your brain anymore. 

    Very strange that just being a non incel has allowed me to somehow miraculously remain employed and get higher and higher salaries as a middle aged white man, all while winning friends and influencing people of all races. Just try to stop carrying yourself like a sniveling whiny spoiled white boy and you might be amazed by how beautiful life can be.


    Yeah, that must be why trump flipped the demo 15-20%…it’s all made up.

    if you had the courage, why not share your corporations dei policies and diversity record? As if the legal theories in Students for Fair Admission is science fiction.

    otherwise, continue to enjoy your safe space.
    What safe space.  Reality?  Demographics flip because people are stupid and easily fooled by hateful lie filled rhetoric.  Sure the demographics flipped.  That's because a bunch of white men of all ages are crybabies, to think otherwise one must be living in a deluded hate filled white grievance safe space.  Free to live in the comfort that the world is against them.   Sad. 

    This is the leftist version of pure maga. People are not smart enough to identify personal hardships and determine that their female friends fare better in the corporate employment world, because of course they are all stupid. Sounds just like 45 47.

    Since you crashed onto the scene with such fierce bravado of your employment record being immune to something for which there is plenty of evidence as existing, it’s telling you ignored the challenge to share your corporations employment dei policies and diversity record.

    and of course breaking rules from the left yet again.

    Yeah it’s about time the democratic party just disbands itself! We don’t need more than one political party anymore besides it will make it easy on who to blame for all the mess we’re in by the way what year will you stop crying about the biggest lie in political theater?

    To me it feels like complaining about the fact that your TV reception is bad, while your house is on fire. One of these issues appears slightly more problematic and timely to resolve than the other. In fact, the other is only an issue as long as you still have a house. 

    I also don't see the causal chain that the DNC could eat crow, complete the loss of faith in their leadership (and confirm untrustworthiness), somehow convert that into gains in popularity in time for the midterms, and see turn-out that would favour the Democrats. I would love to understand why my skepticism is unwarranted.

    Well I don’t work for corporations on principle, so the only way most of the places I have worked have been on one’s ability to do the job.  Sorry it’s so hard for you to be white and male.  Must be a tough life. I hope trump makes it better for you.

    No, but I’ve watched the movie multiple times over the years. It’s a moment that is well documented in the film. I highly recommend watching it, it’s a fun movie with some amazing music, it’s only 2-3 hours, depending which version you watch.

    That's the whole point. It's terrific that youre doing well, but the issue is corporations have significant Dei practices. 

    Not only that, Corporations literally have DEI departments that influence promotions and hiring for the benefit solely of minorities

     And the aggreived can't sue like they did for college admissions, because of the EEOC lawsuit caps. There's literally no money to make it worthwhile because of the EEOC caps. The most and aggrieved party can recapture is $300,000. No lawyer is going to take it case to the Supreme Court for that

    Because next election the GOP is going to come out like Michael Tyson on Leon spinks. Either Democrats deal with it, or they're going to get blasted into submission. Because they lied and manipulated the democratic process. Now they are pretending it never happened

    Demographic Polling ...focus groups...election results, etc. The only thing made up is your absurd commentary. I even posted a focus group prepared by a left-leaning media organization. But I'm sure you're too good to have viewed it. Because it seems you don't know it exists. I know 32 years is a damn long time, takes away the ability to have rational thought

    A lot of people want you to take your eye off the ball.  Distraction is a major strategy they use, especially T and Company.  Let's keep the focus here.

    ‘No Kings’ was just the start of America’s fight for democracy

    by Svante Myrick, opinion contributor - 06/23/25 10:30 AM ET

    It takes courage to make a stand for what you believe in. That’s especially true when you’re challenging a person or institution with a lot more power and a proven willingness to abuse it.   

    And that’s why I am so inspired by Americans who are showing up with courage and conviction to let President Trump know he is not our king — and we won’t let him get away with acting like one. 

    Organizers say that at least 5 million people turned out for more than 2,100 “No Kings” protests in all 50 states on June 14 and 15. We gathered in blue, purple and red states. We came together in cities, towns and rural communities. Some gatherings were just a handful of people. Some were huge crowds.
