If they are all following DEI, BLM, CRT, LGBT, etc., who do you think started all of those things?

Certainly not those that are still in college and younger. That would only leave the older generations for them to listen to, and seeing how the younger gens, especially those currently in any sort of college, act and talk about all of these nonsensical idea, we all know who they are listening to.

Who says they are following any of those movements?

As I say, the very young children are exposed to the upcoming new minorities in school and perhaps in other public venues and with public school's missions for DEI as well as workplaces adopting DEI and the government adopting equality and safety laws including DEI these upcoming generations are getting the message loud and clear.

Lol. You just confirmed exactly what Porkchop has been saying.

How so? Elaborate please.

Go back and read through the discussion. If you can't see it, I can't help you.

that is actually a good bit of info. I was raised NOT to be racist. But I lived in a bubble where we didn't see black people unless they were on TV or we went out of our little town. My first experience with black people was when I was robbed on my way back from cutting grass. And surprisingly, that didn't make me a card carrying racist, but taught me that bad people do exist, and stereotypes exist for a reason.

Once I went into the military, I found that people are people, and how they were raised had a lot to do with who they are as people.

I don't see what you see.

All those movements started due to inequality, hate and/or racism.

Porkchop said 'if' they are involved in those movements. "If" they are then it means more work needs to be done to address continuing issues.

I was commenting on how the upcoming generations are exposed to DEI in all facets of their lives whereas we older generations were not and many of us still are not exposed to DEI.

If you want to stay on topic and comment on my posts then please do, otherwise keep your opinions of what you think you know about me to yourself because you have the wrong end of the stick.

Maybe the Martin Luther quote wording should include and their gender expression alongside the color of their skin.

You must have a red nose and giant shoes. In the before clown world time, people had enough issues separating them from others and didn't need to invent new one's. Now, they need to manufacture an obstacle to make up for a lack of ability and class.

Nope, neutral colored nose and normal sized shoes.

Clown world to you, DEI world to the upcoming younger generations and some older people too, like me.

Live and let live in an atmosphere of tolerance and an openness to understand.

Wrong end of the stick is using a walking cane upside-down - upside-down mentality.

You are truly blind in your bias if you think none of them are.

What generation are the ones setting the DEI precedent in all of the examples you just listed? Is it the ones that haven't even graduated from Hs yet?

What NEW minorities are there? Already asked this once and was ignored

a reply to: quintessentone

Your responded to a comment saying we should listen to older generations to which you responded "absolutely not", then went on to say something about your parents.

If you aren't biased, you will listen to all older generations minus your parents then?

I would like to speak to whoever is in charge of the NBA's DEI program. I feel that overweight, out of shape, Native American senior citizens with multi-million dollar contracts are underrepresented on the basketball courts, and I would like to help them address that issue.

Take your blinders off

AS I have already said once; "What generation are the ones setting the DEI precedent in all of the examples you just listed? Is it the ones that haven't even graduated from HS yet?"

Actually DEI precedents in government, sports venues, public places, workplaces are being set by people of all generations. It's the way of the future so Musk and other intolerant people have already lost that battle.

What EXISTING minorities have always been there and are now coming out of the closet and into the open claiming their equal rights of expression do you mean?

Go back and reread the post I replied to, you are confused.

So a kindergardner is setting up my DEI program at work? Wow good to know, I was really hoping a grown adult was not that stupid.

If they are already there, how can they be new? Or do you mean all of the made up ones that DEI groups are coming out with so that everyone has their chance to feel special?

a reply to: quintessentone

You seem to be the confused one. Everyone else is seeing it the same as I.

Are you going to answer my question or ignore at as is your MO?

I was on topic.
I didn't profess to know anything about you. I made an observation about what you posted.
And it is you who has the wrong end of the stick, if you truly believe what you are posting in this thread.

Nevertheless, I will leave you to your rose colored glasses when it comes to this topic.

You are off on a weird tangent again and don't understand or don't want to understand my intent and message. Anyway, par the course here with you.

You are unwilling to understand my message and twist it round in your head, so what's the point?
