I thought it would be impossible for me to vote for Trump. But from what I've learned over the past several years it is clear that I have to.
Yep.
Yes
DEI= Didn’t Earn It!
Thats a good one😂
Typical elitism!
DEI = Deliberate Engagement with Idiots
Lol, that’s awesome! 😎 Not only is it awesome, it’s a fact, not a theory. We are past the point that DEI helps minorities who are qualified. It’s strictly political theatre & propaganda and everyone knows it but they are too afraid to say it! DEI is doing the complete opposite of its intention. We have medical students who want to be medical doctors and medical students who want to be Nurse’s who are not qualified to be a Doctor or a Registered Nurse.
DEI equals survival of the weakest.
The weaker people are made by these struggle sessions the more equal they are, and greater potential for recruitment into Revolutionary Guards.
Privileged, protected and preferred to boot
Please keep Dr. Hanson on lots more. Thanks.
An educational system that strays from merit is doomed to fail.
Yeh if it ain't broke! (Don't go woke)!!
Same can be said about everything.
If you don't make the grade, get off your *** and try harder.
Thank you, VDH, for your keen insights. Jesus loves you ❤️
I saw this coming in education back in the 1980s. When I spoke out against it, all the liberals ganged up on me. The fewer and fewer conservative teachers said nothing except privately. Yes. It was gradual, and then, Boom!
I agree. I taught building construction for 13 years (possess both a journeyman status and 4 year education degree) and had eight years working on construction before teaching. What I encountered from both administrations and counselors was that academics was supreme and the trade programs were for the “dummies” (as my last principal described. He was a phy. Ed teacher, enough said). The secondary system is run by those who have NO real world experience but have led the charge that you are to be respected. In the real world respect is earned, not given.
Delusional.
And wich world running multicultural country do you come from?
Can always tell an imperalist. Their utterly diaconecred from reality.
So?
Merican or little englander?
Both, multicultural cultures btw
I graduated High School in 1990 and I didn’t go to College. My mom got me a Civil Service job. Anyways, I’m shocked that you saw this coming in the effin 80s! My mother-in-law (RIP mom) was a Professor at Hofstra University for over 30 years. Yes, she was a democrat but not a Leftist socialist neoliberal, by any means. (No, I’m not saying that because she was my mother-in-law) My mother-in-law loved two presidents. Number one Franklin Delano Roosevelt and her second was John F. Kennedy. I’m a gen-X mom (as I called her and miss) was the Greatest generation, so she had old school democrat values. After she retired and lived with my wife and me, I could talk history for hours with her. After 30 years of being a Democrat, she voted Republican and or independent. She was very much a believer in the old-guard Democratic Party and she realized that the democratic party she joined in the 40s was nothing like the modern-day Democratic Party. “The Democratic Party has become a Socialist neoliberal party under the guise of being the traditional Democratic Party.”- Ruth Prigozy 2017
@@davidmorton9722 I took motorcycles and marine repair from 10th to 12th grade. I went to Boces in the morning and then a bus ride back to school for regular academic classes in the afternoon. At Boces they taught everything from nursing, baking, hair styling etc etc. There were times when other teachers were snobby for sure. But on the whole, I was only made fun of maybe 2-3 times, if that? Well, according to Elon Musk, there won’t be any jobs left. However, AI or not, someone is going to have to fix the plumbing, heating, AC, cars etc. Academy is on its way to destruction while Trade will always be needed.
The long march through the institutions is complete.
Sadly. If you let a cancer grow...
Yuri Besmenov.
In your nightmares.
They are not done yet.
When we are the third world country everybody is coming to for the cheap labor the RICH and corpeRAT America will rejoice and we will be back to the company store or feudal state days.
Why why why are institutions bending to 18-21 yr olds barely out of puberty, with minimal life experience?? Yes, I get the economic drivers but geez, universities need to grow a pair...
The university establishment are just as far left as the students.
@@coastliner5848 University presidents won't even call out racism against Jews.
Because administrators are terrified of the helicopter parents that see their offspring as the perfect people and those who disagree with them are terrible teachers. That is probably the main reason why the good teacher leave the profession after five years.
We’re letting 18 years olds vote and they know nothing of real life. As I look back on my life, my husband and I were just ready to vote by 21! Twenty-five would be a better age to allow people to vote. By 25, you have paid taxes, rented or bought a resident, and bought a car. You are more ready to vote by that time.
Victor has the blessing of having the same neighbours for most of his life.
Love to hear Victor Davis Hanson. Just bought 2 books.The End of Everything. The Drying Citizen. Anxious to read them
Thank you for this program
But we have you...
the millions and millions people who listen to you.....
Are you ready?
We have no one to lead us....
We only have us...
No leader to rally us....
We have to do this by ourselves.
Its on us.
You mean, “We The People of the United States of America?”’🇺🇸 That is revolutionary talk, comrade.
"The Anglo-sphere is committing mass suicide".
quote from ~ Victor Davis Hanson - Hoover Institution 04/09/2021
It would be amazing to see those universities lose all that funding... what a day that would be, when they actually had to start teaching again, not ideology, but actually teaching students their degree subject matter, to do proper research again, to innovate and create new technologies... instead of what they are currently doing, making people believe they are smarter than they actually are, providing a degree that is not worth the paper it's written on.
Have you interviewed James Lindsay yet? He's got a very...clarifying understanding of the D.E.I. initiative born of extensive research into neo-Marxist ideology expressed in Critical Theory and all its cultural facets. He has been exposing the root of "Wokeness" and its fundamental aims for some time now, not merely criticizing its effects upon western society. I strongly recommend him as an interviewee, if hasn't yet been one on your UA-cam channel.
Divide- Enrage - Irritate
Yuri B warned about all this in his interviews in the 80s.
The American citizenship gets immediately divided between us and them. On the highest level - the level which has the most influence over the citizens, is the unionized government working class.
reduce government
That’s why we need a DEI Officer in every government institution, Comrade!
As Viveck says" you get the best of the best" or DEI..... Its one or the other... Which do YOU want flying the plane your on??
Monomania on race and cultural Marxism led to DEI.
Postmodernism
Americanized Maoism is causing the Republic to go Bananas.
Essentially a political cultish tool of Americanized Maoism.
From the Frankfurt School 1928
If, as we see, Universities have VAST financial resources, let THEM make loans to students, and recoup over time, as the Taxpayer is expected to now.
Let's hope we can stem the tide and regain some stability. I want things to be fair for everyone but we have to hire the folks best suited for each job. DEI is a variant of the Good Ol' Boy system of yesteryear, I don't like either.
I can't figure out if DEI is part of a religion, cult or both.
Self worship.
I saw some of this in the 90s, but as a liberal, I thought it (race, gender, etc) was an area of inquiry that was valid for a certain small niche. It was clear even then that it made bitter people: made already bitter even more so, taught happy people to become bitter. It was also clear that some of them were out for revenge; they could not be trusted to look at things objectively and were actively trying to harm people who thought differently from them. But I graduated, moved on to the real world, and didn’t see it much after. It’s clear that it has metastasized into something far bigger, far worse. I am no longer a liberal (or won’t vote liberal anymore while this mob is in control) because of it. I have tried to warn people, introduce alternative views in the most gentle way possible, only to be summarily dismissed. Well, we tried. Now it’s time to dismiss these people from all the positions of influence they have had. To rebalance academia. All because they couldn’t stop while they were ahead.
Just my experience of, and my current take on, this destructive movement exactly!
Very well said.
The eighties ! It had a head of steam in the sixties ! When my enlistment was complete and went or tried to go to college in the seventies
the canoe of education was in the ROCKS; I bailed before going over the FALL!!! Let God and the devil sort them out, late ! ‘had stuff to do.
I am glad my kids and grand kids have BYU to go to.
It seems to me that conservatives in the United States (people who not only consider themselves conservative but are considered conservative by other people) tolerate or mabye even encourage diversity, equity and inclusion much more that the people who have adopted "Diversity, Equity and Inclusion" as their favorite slogan. This observation by someone who consideres himself a slightly left-leaning moderate.
The United States is the beating heart of multiculturalism. England before it, was too. The English language is 13 diffrent languages glued together over time. Both multicultural countries ruled the world. A country of clones, inovates and produces NOTHING.
Do you get it now, Merican?
Welcome to Conservatism.
Where people who are mature and reasonable, can grow and change and bend, but yet conserve the things that time has proven to be best for our nation.
We need to be able to talk about Race differences. From IQ to testosterone levels.
I laugh, Our food is full of estrogen and that's what's happening to the human race today. Argue with that.
Mongolia and Mongols have the highest testosterone in the world. Fact.
What has that got to do with DEI
DIE is affirmative action by another name, and it is even more insidious and yes, I spelled it that way on purpose.
Hopefully the panic continues for them...and even increases.
There's a trend that omits the final period in an abbreviation. It makes no sense example: R.I.P
As they rightly should be.
🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
"Full Panic" sounds like a great movie title.
So do how you look matter
You guys should address Biden challenges Trump to debate
Didn't earn it.
As well as they should be pal
Good!!!
Of the 3.3 million Jews living in Poland before the holocaust only about 360,000 survived. The call to go back to Poland is particularly heartless and cruel.
Demean excellence and initiative.
I was advised to diversify my portfolio among several assets such as stocks and bonds since this can protect my inherited portfolio of about $2.5m. I’m used to just buying and holding assets which doesn’t seem applicable to the current rollercoaster market plus inflation is catching up with my portfolio. I’m really worried about survival after retirement.
True, I mostly just buy and hold stocks, but my portfolio has been mostly in the red for quite awhile now. Unfortunately to be able to make good gains, you’ll need to be consistent and restructure your portfolio frequently.
It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to around $750k.
My partner’s been considering going the same route, could you share more info please on the advisor that guides you?
There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Colleen Rose Mccaffery” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
Close all colleges and universities! Take that money, (from tax payers) and make housing for the homeless. Get them mental health care.
DEI is going to ruin us...just like nepotism and favoritism.
Equals trains wrecking, planes falling out of skies, boats ramming bridges, cranes tipping over. DEI work?,
Make sure for your next flight the pilot isn't a DEI hire!
First
Congrats -- 😃
This must be your biggest achievement.
As the "Boomers" continue to age and die-off, you're going to see Donations and Endowments dwindle and eventually dry up at ALL Colleges and Universities.
Evil will always endeavor to destroy God’s chosen people. Same with the Christians, the Son’s “chosen” people.
I think there are darker forces promoting the diversity.equity and inclusion at play here and those on its bandwagon need to ask just who is being taken for a ride. The rise of cynical politics would be a more helpful target to improve mankind’s lot. Yes you can treat disease by attacking its symptoms but you tend not to remove the disease, by getting at the cause you have a better opportunity to remove it entirely.
Isn't it "Didn't Earn It" jobs?
DEI is the biggest problem. Not only people are getting hired more because of DEI then whether or not they can actually do a job etc. What they are doing is counter productive. They talk about racism and discrimination using DEI does exactly that.
Nearly a four-letter word!
DEI is in decline. It never was a thing at small business and big business doesn’t want the drama anymore. Government has it but not where competence is absolutely necessary.
How about that voted in Lara guy. Calif insurance commissioner:) Hows your insurance going CALIF?
There is nothing wrong wit Diversity ,Equity and inclusion . This has always been the ideal in society an unvoiced philosophy that we are all equal , that no one is more superior than another , and that all men and women and for that matter animals and whatever in the ideal scheme of things are all eaual and that nothing or no one is more important than anything else .
To say or think that this is a new type of thinking that Man should adopt and take on board is also fallacious . This has been around for a long time . University students in particular carry the torch for this Diversity , however with these individuals it amounts to a release of tension from the rigours of study and if it wasn't so called Diversity it would be something else . Purely a fad , a current popularity that will fade as soon as the final exams come around and everyone has to get down to the nitty gritty of getting on in the world 💚
DEI espouses the opposite of equality. Which is why the meaninglessness “equity” has replaced “=“.
DEI = Garbage in, Garbage out 😳
Have a conversation with artificial intelligence about the history of the concept of freedom and liberty it will try to have a long conversation about how China and India both had concept of individual freedom but once you get it to be specific about who actually founded Nation's on the concept of freedom and liberty it is only in the west. Only the West. The more our culture changes to accommodate other people the more we will shift away from this extremely rare concept of freedom and liberty
Is this rising? It's been a failure!
The rise of bullsxxt
DEI=DIDN'T EARN IT
Diversity, 2+2=4 or 2+2=7 or 2+2= 93.Close enough, All are fine, Diversity Equity & Inclusion makes us all winners.
BS!!
Oh John then you'll just have to ring up your friend Rupert. You and he can endower a new couple of Murdoch Universities! You can then appoint your own vice chancellors and maintain those stiff old right wing values!
Islamophobia...why would anybody fear the Religion of Peace??
Wiki: Jimmy Carter supported abortion after Roe v. Wade, 410 US 113 (1973).
Two "big brains" ignoring the perfidious elephant in the room as usual.
