    One of the things you are not pointing out is that wokeness itself is inherently hypocritical. Discrimination is morally wrong, full stop. Wokeness says that the solution to the immoral discrimination against some groups is to discriminate against other groups. Our parents all taught us when we were very young that two wrongs don’t make a right. Discriminating against one group to favor another group is inherently morally wrong, no matter your intentions. You can have the finest of intentions, but if your actions are immoral it undoes every intention that you had.

      In the nursing home I worked at, the person running my department hired 3 of their children.
      Within a year, the entire rest of the staff had either quit or been forced out.
      This was during the pandmeic, and the boss and his children were taken off tasks that required interaction with the patients.
      (I was reading to elderly quarantined, isolated COVID patients.)
      If this nursing home were public, then Civil RIghts, and Nepotism, would apply. They don't.
      This is part of the problem with privatization. Your tax dollars still pay for it, but the petty corruption and discrimination is tolerated.
      I would be more in favor of privatization if the private space wasn't so dominated by scammers!
      The problem with elite wokeness, like DEI, is that they're lying about how ineffective Civil Rights has become, especially at lower income tiers, and in (semi) private organizations.

      Woke just means ‘well educated’ that’s all it means. It has nothing to do with liberal or conservative necessarily…
      In fact conservatives or liberals can be woke depending on their education level. If you are well-read on a topic and think about it critically, free from the influence of others, congratulations you are woke.
      In my view neither political party (d or r) is actually woke.

      There's been a lot of culture wars politics in the last 60 years of Civil Rights backlash, but if you're blaming your opponent for creating the problem, why not keep creating it?

    My wife and I have taken our three kids to Disney World. Throughout the year we would save and budget to afford the cost. By bringing to bear it's considerable legal, financial and political power in order to force public policy, Disney sends a clear message that my family is persona non grata. Disney has made it clear that as a company they stand with the left and there is no room for contrary opinion. Disney with it's wealth and lawyers should not get to decide public policy.
    I cannot believe that any company can alienate half or more of it's customers base and not lose money. John Deere and TSC are doing away with DEI. Who are their customers? No one in San Fran. Who drinks lots of beer? I guess BL found out. Half the people shopping at Target vote R.

      I think Burnham may be right about technocracy at the top, but I'm not so sure about middle management.
      It seems to me that American managers require no formal training on how to handle their staff.
      It's not a profession in America, it's a position of power, and a prize.
      If you had a culture of competent business management, there would be very different attitudes towards who should have power, and how it should be wielded.
      The private space still needs its managerial revolution.
      The kind of economics we're engaging in at the highest level isn't about economizing - it's about full employment and asset security!
      If you're going to require your economy to economize, you'll be accused of Communism!

    Govt run "force media" not free. How does everyone feel about Americans' attempting to defend their freedom of speech, in what was given legal status as public forum, social media?
    I appreciate that Kibbe (On Liberty) explains a freedom movement ought remain peaceful until it has suffered enough abuse to rally more support to its cause. However, libertarians are not advocating riotous expression of culturally speaking Americans', pun intended, wanting to dissolve their tyrannical govt, so instead of being the answer, libertarians are left occupying the space of Manufacured Consent, if not worse ie Agents of the State, operating & selling out the hangout. The last libertarian campaigning for president advocated compliance with mask mandates.
    More to it, the problem w/ libertarians is the problem w/ Argentine president & libertarian Milei. You see, he threatened pro-palestinian protesters against slowing down commerce, then flew to Israel to kiss the wall.
    More to the point, we all saw that libertarian, Anarchists, & objectivists were too conflicted during the covid agenda, confused by what amounted to public private partnerships, so much so that they failed to mount serious resistance thus leaving Americans to suffer.
    You see, it seemed libertarians weren't willing to figuratively & literally take to the streets, to claim public back from govt encroachment both in public & private.
    Simply put, I could see a scenario where libertarians & their ideas develop in opposition to the Trucker movement against the covid & the Farmer one against the climate agenda; I could see Melei shutting down protesters against the New World Order, threatening protesters against slowing down commerce even if that commerce is fascist or otherwise funded by force.
    There are two things we need to confront if we're to survive this:
    1st, To the extent funds obtained from activities (from criminal thieving to govt taxing to fed reserve printing ) other than the free market, that funding is defined as force, it's effect on the market, on people, is force; meaning, such censorship, propaganda, boycotts, advertisers, donors, etc. are forcing their own "will" on others, i.e., criminally taking both free choice & "freewill".
    2nd, "Agent of the State", legal term, refers to those supposed private entities who are supported by the govt (force) in carrying out said "State's" agenda ie govt run UA-cam publishers tailoring their govt approved messages, censoring their comment sections, what's the difference between them & the establishment media, misleading & selling us out for their govt pay.
    ua-cam.com/play/PLB0A97C06867AF0D6.html&si=71ww87SU5dpCr27m
    A note about Ancaps: Ancap bitcoiners self censored their comment sections for covid & climate Agendas to keep making money on social media platforms, so forget those fascist sellouts too.
    In furtherance, Robbie Soave (libertarian) & The Rising gave Fauci a softball interview when people needed answers to the hard questions. That interview was a lie. Kim Iverson left in protest over it. It was a big controversy.
    Interesting that Soave the lie is invited to further his career moreso here on youtube, & w/in "Reason" while Iverson the truth teller is not. Why do you think that is; why is the "lying media" being promoted here when we ought be supporting out "champions of truth"?
    Bottom line, don't comply; don't become Manufactured Consent, Agents of the State, limiting the hangout, selling out.
    We need the freedom to speak, JD Vance, vp candidate, is anti free market/pro commy labor, part of the Israeli 1st, censorious, connected to Palantir (company seeking Woke jews to spy on you), new Labor Right.
    Greenwald, Iverson, & others like them keep supporting a Labor Right, like they supported Trump. This is what gave us the Covid Agenda, & it will give us worse, with a Labor Right, i.e., two lefts in America. Everyone say, thanks Glenn, for killing, impoverishing & otherwise ruining America.
    If Greenwald is right & the Labor Republican party is an improvement, why didn't Thomas Massie speak there, at the RNC Convention; is it because he's anti an Israel 1st Republican Party or because he doesn't like Commy Labor?
    Corporate lobbying would be subject to market forces if govt did its job & refused to favor, subsidies or otherwise support intrinsically at the expense (by force) of others.
    Workers rights means special rights as in in the first case, when govt helps one it is necessarily at the expense of others. Such becomes a class/caste system with some favored & thus others disfavored by our govt.
    Individualism, Captalism, equal treatment by the law, that's how a free thus prosperous society comes to be.
    Trump doesn't understand that though, & Trumpsters are as violent as they come. Trump, thus his supporters & enforcers, forced lockdowns, facemasking, & medical experiments. It wasn't constitutional either, which means it was criminal.
    Trump did use public health to institute totalitarian control in the US, which he used to force medical experiments & and more, resulting in a worldwide genocide greater than the world has ever known. Do you think Trump wasn't calling for political violence when he bribed & bullied states to apply force against anyone resisting his, Trump, his supporters & enforcers, Covid Agenda? Greenwald obscures the truth. The European Labor Right is not the Small Govt Amer Right. It is dangerous.
    Did i mention that leading mises libertarian Tom Woods is now endorsing Trump... How is that nonagression? How does that support the constitution...
    Dave Smith, Wood's protege, accuses any American advocating we fight back, as "feds" thus accusing "better men," as John Staurt Mill would say, of being govt plants. Shameful!
