Bonus Sunday viewing.
Every year, for the past eight, I've spoken at this Tienanmen Square memorial event. It's important to remember the university students who stood up for liberty and freedom against the tyrannical Chinese Communist regime.
We have similar challenges, here in WA. Not as drastic, but still tyrannical in their own ways.
The fight for liberty and freedom--and against the tyrannical lust for "power" and "control"--is universal. And eternal.
Fight, fight, fight!

That is a long ass tweet about micro-aggressions. The purpose of them was to populate the GULag Archipelago thru control of thought & speech in order to enslave humanity to socialist utopia. That is why you start the research back 100 years, not 50. Communism kills.
[HRIP, 1950]
Research on microaggressions has made a mountain out of a molehill.
We critically evaluate common claims about microaggressions. Despite 50 years of scholarship on microaggressions, the main claims about them have not been empirically demonstrated. Most studies address perceptions of microaggressions, not microaggressions per se. Much is known about subjective self-reported experiences as measured by dubious questionnaires of unknown validity that may or may not assess perceptions of “microaggressions,” and the correlates of these measures. The research has failed to demonstrate that behaviors claimed to microaggressions are frequently experienced.
Moreover, despite claims to the contrary, research has not established that racism causes microaggressions nor that microaggressions adversely affect the well-being of those who perceive the . The research has failed to demonstrate that experiencing microaggressions has negative causal effects on the well-being of those who perceive them. Correlations do not demonstrate “impact.” No studies have attempted to assess whether racism causes the specific behaviors labeled as microaggressions by “experts” and advocates.
Accordingly, after 50 years of scholarship on microaggressions, the central claims of proponents remain unsubstantiated. Whereas helping clients cope with experiences of bigotry is appropriate for therapy, leading clients to interpret ambiguous situations as manifestations of bigotry risks doing more harm than good. Rather than facilitating constructive social interactions, it is likely to induce anger and resentment.
Microaggression scholarship often is framed as anti-racist. In this perspective, opposing anti-racism is racist, so that criticizing microaggression research is racist. Thus, microaggression scholarship has a peculiar form of insulation against refutation. Critiques of the theory, being “racist,” count as further support for the phenomenon.
As Slezkine's (1994) autopsy of the Soviet Union showed, what starts out as ethno-racial minorities versus majority then turns to intra-group class warfare, where eventually... "age sufficed."
School DEI mandates automatically grant anti-communist history education (that Leftists won't tolerate).
You simply teach DEI w/ primary sources, vocab in both English & Bolshevik Russian, its purpose, death tolls, & how it violates our US Constitition.
Fastest way to end it.
I’m co-authoring legislation to explicitly teach “diversity, equity, and inclusion” in our schools.
I’ve also filed House Bill 4111 which would require school districts over a certain size to hire a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer.
>2000 staff, 53 field offices. The socialist racism of DEI discriminators is proudly on display in their docs. They still aren't trying to hide anything. This includes gov't entities. That means you are ineffective.
Stop tweeting & get to work.
There is no “DEI Exemption” to longstanding federal anti-discrimination law.
Employment decisions based on race or sex can violate Title VII, regardless of intent.
This includes hiring, firing, and promotions as well as access to training, fellowships, mentorships, workplace events or other benefits.
You can believe a basic math & language college-readiness exam is neutral, but that is just a racist cover for whiteness, right comrade?
The 1923 XII Part Congress RCP(Bolsheviks) on full display from this communist pig.

You can, of course, believe that the SAT is not a racist test.
But you have to admit an awful lot of people campaigning to bring the test back have a lot of racist bones in their bodies, notwithstanding their proclamations to the contrary.
Yes, I know this is an older headline being posted below.
But you have no clue just how old. We are not talking months or years, but straight out the century-old Soviet portal to socialist hell.
[HRIP,1950]
Commonplace. Again, the Soviet "careerist" problem:
licensure & training for every career requires indoctrination & submission to The Party Line, & to keep up w/ its changes.
This includes law enforcement & lawyers/judiciary.
[HRIP,1950]
HOLY SH*T
.@RichmondPolice forces all law enforcement recruits to take an "LGBTQ Awareness Class" as part of their training.
Imagine if they just trained cops on fighting crime.
Your tax dollars are being used to promote mental illness pseudoscience propaganda to police officers
Is there a Newton's Law 1st Law of Liberty?
Does a nation that fought for its God-given freedoms stay free until acted on by some outside force?
That banked-up inertia of liberty has been exhausted by years of silence, fear, & apathy.
Time to put in the fight to get it back.
@StevenWelliever It's beyond frustrating to document years of DEI initiatives, and nothing seems to matter. Document after document, program after program, and system after system. Nothing stops them.
@ArtiSt4AMERICA I agree. And the state & federal level anti-DEI executive orders, as well as passed state laws, appear to have been hollow campaign promise-fulfillment with negligible actual effort or results in enforcement.
Enough w/ the threats...
Fed funds should not be used for Bolshevik K-12 programming & conspiracy to violate Constititional rights. Using the Stalinist term "All" in DEI-context should serve as evidence why funds need to be cut. K-12 educators need their day in Fed court soon.
Trump threatened to cut Oregon’s school funding unless we abandoned our equity and inclusion policies that benefit all students. I refused this unlawful attempt to strip resources promised to Oregon students. Oregon’s kids aren’t a bargaining chip. https://t.co/2GCuZ2ndcB
4/ The satanic policies of Lenin, Stalin, & the Bolshevik Party are incompatible with America and have no place being priority req'ts for teacher certification.
Remember the feeling when this communist BS came to end in Dec 1991? Some do.
🧵 1/ WEA (WA teachers union) will be spending the entirety of the summer, June-August, indoctrinating teachers about micro-aggressions as a DEI req't for licensure renewal.
The concept was invented by Lenin in 1922, later put into Soviet law, & used terror to control speech...
3/ The prohibition on perceived racial animosity became Article 123 of 1936 Stalin Constitition.
I have provided 3 quotes from the 1950 Harvard Refugee Interview Project to show ex's of the trivial nature of violations for which teachers & others were reported/sent to GULags...
