overcorrection much? i'm british so can i get a fact check — this is really going on over there?? : redscarepod

This is all very real and it's actually happening. They're raiding homes as well. Just yesterday an anti-DEI agent came into my home and punched my Black wife. He went on the family computer and logged onto our Bluesky accounts, changing my wife's pronouns from she/them to she/her, and then posted nazi apologia on the Xitter accounts we haven't used since October 2022 when M*sk bought the site. He then stomped around the house and destroyed anything with the word "love" in it

My first reaction was to say I don't believe this but then I remember just a few short years ago getting threatening emails from HR saying that every employee needed to upload proof of vaccination within like a week or else we would be fired. (Gov job and we ALL were working from home at the time, so it's not like it was relevant to the job. And I was already vaccinated, and I did comply, I just didn't like the idea of HR having any say in my medical choices or my personal life.) So yeah it's not like a public employer overstepping their bounds is unheard of.

I work for the government and had to show my vaccination papers so I could keep working, (from home).

But I definitely wasn't forced to take the vaccination and there definitely wasn't a mandate and anything I did was of my own volition.

i was never forced to pay taxes. if i don't the government just seizes my house, assets, and freedom, but there's definitely no mandate to pay taxes and every time I do it's out of my own volition.

Its getting a little crazy I will admit. But the democrats had legally mandated that a land acknowledgment be visible in my office for the last 4 years. Seems like whoever has power is going to enforce their social ideologies on the federal government employees. Not ideal

Yeah but the land acknowledgement, as corny as it is, wasn't hurting anyone. You could just ignore it if you wanted. I'd say this is a lot worse.

Idgi, how is removing posters from a wall hurting people? Can't you ignore that too?

It's happening, disabled black drag queens knocked on my door yesterday and asked if I could hide them in my attic.

I feel terrible turning them away, but my attic isn't wheelchair accessible 😔

think of the children

They certainly do.

Can confirm this is really happening. I'm black and was accosted on the way to work just this morning. A pair of white men attacked me, threw bleach on me and yelled "This is MAGA country!" one of them threw a noose around my neck but then the police intervened and got out of their squad car. I looked up thinking they would help me but they only lifted their hands in a Nazi salute and joined in on beating me.

lol people on reddit fanfictioning their own fascist oppression fantasy tells you all you need to know about why the left is currently an utterly impotent political force and will remain so for the foreseeable future

Yeah it's always been like that, but they're going apeshit on the counter-swing of the pendulum. They shitcanned all EEO investigations, so if you wanted to pretextually fire all people of X race, you wouldn't get investigated. Also, while Veterans preference for federal contractors is still a requirement—nobody is going to check anymore. The rolled back a bunch of shit dating back to 1965.

Feel like this country just goes from one dumbass extreme to the other. First they let wokescolds take over and now it's twitter educated red pilled race-science scholars.

Where the heck do normal people live on this planet? Where is grillers' paradise?

Frick them. They made this bed. They can lay in it.

Fighting extremism with extremism will certainly result in peace.

Yeah I don't care.

You are harboring DEI posters under the floorboards, are you not?

They'll call it the night of broken monitors.

Imagine a world where feds start adopting slang like passoids, youngshits, bricks, clocking, etc. Alphabet agency dude kicking down the door screaming "we know you're sheltering AGP r*pehons"

This is actually based. However more seriously this is companies doing massive cost cutting
