UF has fired all staff in positions related to DEI.

I like to see the best in people… until they show me they’re insufferable white, holier than thou libbies.
These people are often irredeemable.
Thanks for letting me clarify.

 

DEI in full retreat …

You have Bluke blocked. Have to pay extra for that info.

 

Perhaps you like to imagine the best in yourself. Imagining the worst in certain others helps you to achieve that.

 

Maybe, maybe not. but I recommend others not to trust this source.

I do not imagine the worst in people. But some of the libbies on this board have shown a sliver of who they are through their posting…so it’s not my imagination.
That’s all we can really say about it.

 

Gator Bait!

 

I have thought about unblocking everyone. But then, I likely would start blocking the same people.

 

I also have thought about telling people who ask me where I went to law school that I can’t remember.

 

Why is it utterly stupid? He shared a video from a newscast/opinion show. Maybe I'm too utterly stupid to understand some sophisticated analysis you're about to drop on us.

 

I read that link. The author says he's "not blaming them for forces beyond their control." Well, all 5 things that Lemon listed as problems are 100% within the control of the people who are the subject of Lemon's message.

 

Looks like a pretty even dispersion of states to me:

 

Hold on now....I'm still hoping "Equity" gets me a starting role on the Lakers. It's only fair!

 

Another person who doesn't get it. Your community has had a bunch of murders due to a gang war happening. It has also had a spate of garden gnome thefts. I am a reporter and run a story on the garden gnome thefts, while nobody says anything about the murders.

If you were to ask me why I didn't talk about the murders and I responded with "but the garden gnome thefts are crime and are happening," does that address the point you raised?

 

1. That map isn't accurate. It only includes the current legislative session (which is why it doesn't show Florida as having enacted one).
2. It is irrelevant that somebody proposed one. Show where they passed. My recollection is that the states are Florida, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, and the Dakotas.

 

No. But extra credit for making three references to garden gnomes throughout that nonsense.

 

Really? Is it too complex to understand there can be issues in a community and that systemic oppression amplifies it, and in many case is derivative of oppression? Go read the Color of Law. Poster acted like Don said all issues are internal to the Black community and now blames everything on white oppression. It’s ridiculous and a lie.

 

Boykin's point was that he doesn't disagree that littering is bad, people should go to school, and sagging your pants is a bad look, but those are not the biggest problems facing Black people nor the systemic barriers that are creating so much inequality. Lemon could have been highlighting major problems instead of focusing on minor issues amplified by people who want to deny that those barriers exist.

That was the substance of his criticism, so responding about sagging pants or going to school or not littering isn't addressing his Boykin's point. It's a dodge.

 

Looks like CRT is not actually being taught despite the fact that it should be a mandatory class

 

Emmitt is now demanding “reparations” from UF.
Emmitt Smith ripped Florida for eliminating DEI roles. Here's why.
