It was a very instructive and educational course. I swear I gave it my undivided attention for the whole hour. I watched every video and read every slide. At no point was I getting on with my actual job or thinking "this is a load of ****".

I am now fully aware of my privilege and cultural biases. I will stop all my microaggressions and my constant need to touch afro hair. I am now an ally to all minorities. And will call out and fight discrimination every where I see it. And if there is none to fight, I'll just look harder until i find some.

This is it, if you don't find it, you are still a bigot nazi racist.

End of.

Except there's no end, ever - that's the grift and division that $$funds it.

Complete nonsense.

Some things look like people being stupid.

Some things look too stupid to be real.

Both are stupid.

I work for an American company in Ireland. We were made watch a video on an example of the type of thing that could happen if conflict in the workplace is left unresolved. Of course the end of the video involved a guy going to the car park and getting a bag of guns from the boot of the car.

Ok. Doesn’t that contradict or support my point?

Until it's confirmed true then it's too stupid to be true. Once it's confirmed true then obviously it was true and wasn't too stupid to be true.

Couple of threadbans handed out from the last 2 pages. The forum is for light hearted discussion folks. CA is there for more serious discussion.

If i had more time id go further back. Ill do my best to do so over the coming days. If people are having trouble differentiating between serious and lighthearted, they can take a break from the thread, at least.

Considering the rest of her stuff on Tiktok it doesn't seem like it, not an ounce of parody in any of it.

That could just mean the whole thing is a parody account.

Doubt it, a load of it is her talking in as mild mannered as tiktok gets about dealing with an eating disorder.

So, if no one can tell satire from reality, is it even parody any more?

To keep it lighthearted...

That's because a lot of isn't actually true.

Apart form the bit about the black guy telling me that putting white milk in my tea. That was true.

Wrong. Only a very small % are not actually true. Good of you to point them out for us though.

Diverstiy training in general is true and is woke+. Most ppl think so and wouldn't engange in it if given a choice.

What, a person can't have an opinion?!

People don't check. They just have that same rush of blood to the head the same way a woke person sees racism and then it's off to the thread.

Also, not proven false does not mean it's actually true! If someone linked to Titania Magrath, you'd probably believe it until someone pointed out the origin. And even then you'd ask for proof.

I think I'll bow out at this point too. The entire thread has gone full circle and every "woke" post is just as hysterical as the "woke-ism of the day" revelation. Poe's Law invoked, I'm out.

Diversity training is just a tick box exercise for employers to appear that they are an inclusive workplace that will be proactive in ensuring and encouraging staff to get on and respect everyone equally etc..

There was a time where people hiring and interviewing were able to make that decision.

Nobody has ever said.. “ ohh great, I remember that from my diversity training “

I wonder how long before some of our own start complaining about Irish products that are labeled ‘guaranteed irish’

DTHMX1zsxbcr2mv8fPRoGSvW?auto=format%2Ccompress&fit=max&crop=faces%2Centropy&w=755

DTHMX1zsxbcr2mv8fPRoGSvW?auto=format%2Ccompress&fit=max&crop=faces%2Centropy&w=755

Insisting that it’s racist, discriminatory and that there should be a percentage of products sold on our shelves here, determined by law and audited to ensure domestic businesses are enabling the success of businesses and economies and indeed people’s in less well off economies. But no guaranteed Irish, might offend !

Walk into a pub soon and order an Irish car bomb. “ no sir / madam, we only have an ‘international explosive device’ on our menu these days.

Full Irish breakfast ? “ I’m sorry sir, but we DO have the ‘international enjoyed breakfast dish’ “

You seem to have made it your sole mission to go through this thread and refute everything in it. Is that the only basis for saying it’s all not true?

Those seeking admission to an exclusive NY girls school are requried to make a pledge to be anti-racist. And the parents as well.

One of the parents not too happy about this wrote a strongly worked response and pulled their child out of the school.

The University of Hull believe that requiring good written and spoken English could be seen as "elite". It said (BBC link) that "marking students down for poor spelling, grammar and punctuation in exams could be seen as "homogenous, North European, white, male, and elite".

What a bunch of flucking idioots.

I read the original article and the author Wang does genuinely seem to love this cartoon - I have not seen it.
But when looking for criticisms she opined that there were no queer, gender diverse or dogs of colour represented.

In a kids cartoon.

Dogs. Of. Colour.

Because only North European white men can spell correctly.

Using the term Queer for Gay says a lot about the type of person we're dealing with here (cringe).

edit: and these look like dogs of color to me
