I brought up The Good Doctor once in a conversation explaining that I have autism like Shawn and that I didn't understand Transgenderism as he did, and I was told, "That's no excuse, you're just using a TV Show to hide your bigotry." I never said anything negative about Transgenderism other than "I don't get it."
@@mariposa9506 I've learned that. It really got to me because it was my first ever Woke experience. What made it worse is that it came out of nowhere during a comment thread and it was directed towards me. They said quote: "@Yojimbo16 Some IRL non-binary people still use certain masculine pronouns. Not all of them, obviously; it's something that's different for all of them and you kinda just have to ask them about. It's not too much of a stretch that the canonically NB Roc use masculine pronouns even if he doesn't have to." unquote My response: "That's really confusing. It's just weird gameplay and story segregation. It threw me off when I discovered Roc didn't count towards Male/Female/Animal Blades when doing Merc Missions. I can't even recall if there's a merc mission where he's mandatory but I'm sure there are and I just forgot especially since Merc Missions are important to Roc's Affinity Chart Growth." Their reply: "I don’t find anything confusing about not being an ass about NB people’s preferred pronouns, and the same goes for Roc in this game. I wouldn’t call it “gameplay and story segregation” just because the specifics of Roc’s gender aren’t completely spelled out to you." I thought there was a misunderstanding and that he took offense to something so I tried to explain that I didn't mean anything by that but it snowballed from there and got worse.
@@taki7546 There's another one in a different comment thread that said: "Don’t act innocent, we all know you’d be a murderer too without consequences, based on the way you’ve described yourself viewing others."
I feel like a workplace shouldn’t be filled with politics or your personal beliefs, a workplace is about doing your job it’s about doing what you need to do and going home, you should never hire or fire just because politics, religion or race, people need to understand that.
Politics shouldn’t be in the workplace. Red Bull got my respect when woke activists tried to bring DEI into it, and they said “We make energy drinks here. We don’t care about your politics.” Because if you declare yourself to be on one political side or the other, you immediately lose 50% of your customer base. I don’t know why people don’t understand that.
Women brought it to the workplace. All this started when women and HR departments got power over the workplace. Everything is tailored for women to succeed, so then they start pushing beyond the good level and make things crazy. There's a time societies reach the proper level of acceptance and tolerance. If you push it to far the fabric of polite society breaks down.
About twenty years ago, my then workplace decided to promote more women, despite the fact that women outnumbered men at senior levels… Anyway, I attended a talk run by HR where it became very quickly obvious that only non-white women were in the frame. A Jamaican lady stood up and declared that, if her skin colour was more important to the company than her ability, she was leaving - and she walked out that room with the majority of the attendees, myself included, behind her. Yes, she later resigned. Political Correctness has always been problematic.
Place I used to work, a coworker was complaining that men made more than women doing her job. It didn't seem to occur to her that women were 90% of the workforce and 100% of the decision making positions. If there was institutionalized sexism it was coming from the women.
@@AJadedLizard It's sad that more women are hired because we can be paid less and still do the work. Not because they want us there. It's to save money on talent.
@@Seen_not_heard That is literally not true, the Wage Gap has been debunked time and time again, if you're being paid less it's because you're not performing. If women were being paid less, there'd be no such thing as a male-dominated field, simple as.
@@Seen_not_heard because women settle for less, this also effects the men. Also why wages are stagnant, to include of corse the work from migrants. When you put low cutting women on the force with men, wages get slashed and the workforce doubles. No longer is it feasible to have an average job support a family.
A while back, two of my workers, I have 23 total, inserted their preferred pronouns into their email signatures. I asked them to remove them and they both said I couldn't ask them to do that. I reminded them that this was my business and that our clients were looking to make financial decisions based on our solid and well researched advise. I did not need our clients to question why someone was putting something as ridiculous as she/her on their signature line when they were trusting us to manage their funds. In short, our clients don't want to deal with snowflakes who live in an alternate reality. One of the two removed the pronouns and apologized saying she felt pressured to do so by her co-worker. I removed the other from her job for failing to comply. You can virtue signal all you want, but not on my time and not when I'm paying you. She threatened to sue, I told her good luck with that. That was over a year ago, never heard a peep from she/her.
When my husband was active duty, I found out that I can’t have kids after some dark discoveries during an unrelated surgery. In short, I can conceive, but any pregnancy would become ectopic due to abnormalities along the fallopian tubes, and it would take a massively invasive procedure to fix it if I did. A few months after the surgery, one of the nurses on the base was talking to me about family planning (my husband was getting snipped to protect me from needing surgery). She mentioned that she doesn’t use the term “woman” anymore unless someone is trans. Instead, I was a “birthing person”. I stopped and got a little heated with her. She knew I couldn’t get pregnant. I’m NOT a birthing person. I asked if that meant I was a man if I can’t get pregnant. She said “No” and that I was “something else…” I got her supervisor in the room and demanded her firing from the DOD. It was not ok, and it was some sort of experimental thing to start being more politically correct .
So sorry that happened to you. You’re still a woman I mean you have the parts and xx chromosomes your parts just don’t work right. I hate how they use women with fertility issues and compare them to trans women
The nurse is quite stupid it seems. Even when you apply Gender identity Logic. Youre still a women. Because you identify as a women. The way she said it, is disregarding that viewpoint and is basically not PC either.
I am so sorry this happened to you 😢 I hope you find some way to have children if that’s what you & your husband want! & honestly I hate medical care for military, I’ve only had one doctor in OB care I’ve actually liked
Real talk: don't ever be friends with your co-workers on social media. They aren't your real friends and it only puts you at risk of getting fired for liking or sharing the "wrong" content.
It's better not to have social media in the first place, or if there's decent knowledge of cybersecurity, it's much better to browse social media anonymously.
I work at a law firm and one guy brought his husband and adopted baby daughter to work. Everyone loved it and went crazy and let them walk all over the office. A straight guy brought his biological baby daughter the next day and was asked to stay in the waiting area.
Maybe they learned their lessons from the day before. I’m sure letting the first couple disrupt the day was a bad idea and they simply decided not to do that again. Not everything is discrimination, just because they didn’t explain their decision to you.
I'm actually very surprised anyone was allowed to bring non-employees into the office, but maybe laws are different in your state? When I was working in an office, children were not allowed past the lobby area because of liability concerns. We have insurance to protect employees (and ourselves), not visitors (which include children and spouses of employees). One of my employees brought her daughter to work and to her desk and had her sit there for the day. It's a remote office, so I was not responsible for direct policing of that policy, but the office manager asked her to remove her child and she complained to me, so I had to get HR involved to explain why you shouldn't bring your kids to work even for just a friendly walk-through/hang out.
Yep! Kind of like certain neighborhoods who celebrate someone getting out of prison for the fifth time, but no celebration for the young person who graduates from high school or especially college.
I actually had to go to the hospital for a severe asthma attack and this one nurse kept coming in asking me to fill my pronouns, all while I hooked up to a ventilator unable to talk and could hardly breathe.
My doctor retired in 2022 in part because of this craziness. He told me he would have stayed on another few years if gender affirming care hadn't become such a trend. He also mentioned that he knows other doctors who are considering leaving the field or changing specialties to avoid this mess.
My last doctor also retired. He was furious because the state would pay for transgender surgery but not for bariatric surgery needed to save the life of a diabetic. A few months later, he was gone.
I'm a therapy student and the woke doctrine has taken over. I could not allow it to push me out because conservative people need therapy too. Since deciding to muscle through I've found a group of students and professional organizations that bring nonwoke mental health care professionals together.
I worked for a small charity in the UK , we had to have diversity training . Two of the team were black, two white, one Jewish and an immigrant from Greece. We just took the piss and made racist jokes, the diversity officer looked horrified but it actually turned out to be a great team building exercise. 😂
I was blackballed from my white collar job by feminists. It was a stifling environment with endless tone policing. I was great at the job and loved it until the women took over. When I became a blue collar worker, the banter was great. No rules, nothing out of bounds and just men being men.
My dad and a younger black guy that was new at work talked shit all the time. They would say racist stuff to each other yelling across the shop... I would always shake my head at them but they would always say they were just playing around. He liked my dad so much that years after he left the company he came back to my father's house to show him his new truck(bigrig/18wheeler). He was going to start hauling freight across the country and was excited about his new purchase and wanted to show it off. I guess being that way to one another really did create a good bond. edit I was surprised to learn after his passing how many guys saw him as their "work dad". I was doubly surprised at the fact I felt happiness that others loved him but also I felt a little jealousy as well which was a weird feeling at the time and situation.
@@ssjwesYeah, I feel bad that thanks to female and woke micromanaging of male interactions, you likely won't get that kind of bonding with men at work. My black friend Kay, we did nothing but make racist jokes at every opportunity we could, you know, before woke. They got more ridiculous and more creative each time and we laughed so hard working super shitty jobs. I live in a very homogenous country now so can't do that now, but man, times were good. RIP Kay, mate.
That's the way guys have been doing it forever and ever, and women just don't understand. Among my best friends in high school were a handicapped Puerto Rican Jew, a Jamaican with a bendy finger and several Asians from various countries. We ALL relentlessly made fun of each other's biological traits, with them targeting my soulless ginger ass ad nauseum. It was authentic, somehow trained and spontaneous at the same time. I loved those guys, and I miss those times. We've lost the ability to laugh at ourselves, and that is much more detrimental than people imagine...
It's so shocking to see this woke ideology take over. I study psychology and it scares me to think of what the next generation of psychologists will look like. Same goes of course for other career options as well, but I think it is particularly dangerous in jobs with a certain influence such as teachers or therapists. Most of my fellow students are just way more 'problematic' than the actual clients. Many of them are also completely ok with refusing treatment to people with the wrong political opinions...
It's nothing new - just read or watch Arthur Miller's Crucible. Most people, including those with a higher IQ, are dumb group animals and will join the mob out of cowardice (read up on the Stanley Milgram experiment). Psychologists already know all about this, it's just like the majority of the population they are too cowardly to speak up.
It’s more prevalent in industries that don’t actually produce anything because they don’t have to produce anything. There’s no tangible product as a result which can be objectively assessed. Education, psychology, social work produce nothing tangible that can be objectively evaluated. It’s all subjective. It’s all mental masturbation.
They will be well trained in psycho it's all they will ever have known, Scary future that most people can't open their eyes and see.... I have a question for you, do you think all the brain drugs have changed people's brains, made them easier to brainwash and easier to gaslight? I think it plays a big part in this... control the brain, control everything ...
Yes, it's so dangerous in the traditional professions eg teaching, psychology, legal, medical, science & technology. As we can see from the whole trans debacle in which every one of the professionals in these areas played a key role in creating the trans person and literally had whole societies in the West (and beyond!) in chaos, confusion and a chokehold to the extent of radically attempting to change society's established norms and subvert objective reality over a small minority group. It begs belief. And refusing 'treatment' just because one doesn't hold the same political views is not just incredibly irrational, unprofessional and an abuse of power but pure evil. And it's just been allowed to run riot in society with no consequences to those that participate in such heinous actions.
They view the people with the wrong political opinions as in a cult and yet refuse to treat people they think are sick in the head. Psychiatry is riddled with ego and self righteousness but not so much on compassion, funnily enough.
I left an office job after they held an employees pronouns to a higher regard than a disorder I struggle with. I had lifelong troubles with memory and learning, and tried to talk to my bosses about it. They acted like they couldn't care less, and I could "train myself out of it" but had regular meetings about respecting peoples pronouns. I didnt choose my disorder, but people choose their lifestyles.
see, this is what those stupid politics of diversity say they are aimed at, and yet, the people that are supposed to be "helped" get the bad end stick of the deal
Most people tend to be like sheep and will accept just about anything if it gains enough popularity. Sadly, the boring, real stuff doesn't get the same sort attention that the weirder stuff does to draw the attention of those people who NEED to be a part of the flock.
I was a camp counselor at a summer camp in California that was extremely woke. We had to do a diversity & inclusion training and one of the instructors was teaching us about the zip line ropes course and was talking about how the equipment has been historically “racist.” I asked her what she meant and she said that because black people are naturally bigger it was not inclusive. There is this problem with woke fat white women using black women as examples of “naturally fat” people which is actually racist and they don’t realize it.
@@mrsmerily Being fat is part of the beauty standard in some areas of Africa so brides to be instead of going on a diet will drink a lot of milk to fatten up. The beauty standard also sees a higher amount of diabetes, but the doctors in those areas are saying it's ok, because it's culture and it's seen as beautiful. They're enabling diabetics!
@@silververnallbells191 The whole reason that beauty standard existed was because being fat was a sign of being wealthy and having access to resources.
what's she jizzing about? Black people are naturally smaller than white people. Also Asians. It's because size of the animal relates to the weather and the colder the weather == the bigger the animal. Although with modern humans, for some odd reason the tallest / biggest men are in the Balkans (185+ cm is the average), if you remove this you're left with Nordic countries as source of biggest both men and women. And I am talking about general averages, not the special selections like the NBA.
Misha, I really appreciate you showing up as YOU. I see you wear makeup and do pretty hairstyles from time to time, but majority of the time, you show up natural. I cannot tell you how helpful that is, not just for me, but no doubt plenty of other women. It is giving me more confidence to allow myself to show up as myself. I am used to being around women who wear makeup every day, and I feel weird when I don’t wear it… I’ve been pushing myself out of that. I have some way to go, but organically beautiful souls like yours and lighting the way. You are beautiful, truly, inside and out, without even trying. You glow because you are healthy. Also, I had watched several videos of you and didn’t know for a fact you were a child of God, but I heard you mention that in one of your videos the other day. It absolutely shows that you are a Child of God. Before I heard you say it, I felt in my spirit that you were one of His. Thank you for your time, Misha. It’s refreshing hearing your views, I get tired of my own echo chamber in my head.
I'm so glad I was able to take early retirement last year. My last employer was starting to push 'unconscious bias', 'Pronouns on e-mails', and other woke stuff and when my team asked me for an opinion on it I would always give my honest take. These days, with all the cancel culture types, I would not last a day.
The pronouns thing is getting so weird to me. Like, how does how you refer to me in the third person even matter? I assume I’m not around if you’re talking about me, so what does it matter? If someone decided they were going to use he/him pronouns when talking about me, I would be incredibly unbothered about the whole thing.
It reminds of a cat video where someone asked something and used "it", which we use to objects and animals, and then a lot of people appeared saying that he was being offensive and that he should have used "them" since ge didn't knew the cat's gender. Like, push whatever you want but can we stop using human standards on animals? 🤦♀️
I'm so against all this woke crap. My job is just so happy that I'm gay, it's like they want me to skip around the office and talk about how much I like men. This is so creepy to me. My sexual orientation has nothing to do with the work I came there to do. But I have to exploit it, because I'm not a leftist and everyone knows it. In one of my I&D brainwashing sessions, I accidentally said how I feel, so I then had to come out as a long term HIV survivor so my additional oppression points could keep me in the game. This stuff is so creepy you guys, and I don't think it's going to get better. We may need to run to Mexico or get packed on a train car soon.
It's weird, isn't it? Because if I pranced around the office as a straight man, shouting about where I'd like to shove my knob, I'd be out of a job and into a police car before sunset. But you, you have to celebrate pride year round and inform people that you're happy you like a bit of knobaction. It is the pornification of "identity" traits. Preferring a sausage factory is probably the least interesting thing about you and yet they expect you to rub it in their faces all day long, pun intended. Bizarre.
Misha i joined a new school this year, and somehow it’s even more liberal than my old school😭😭 the headteacher literally had a whole assembly for black history month (in the UK) about how he’s a "privileged middle class white man" who needs to "teach his kids not to be racist", they have black history month posters and flags and yesterday they blasted afrobeats on the speakers during breaktime and no one said a thing, everyone in this school is so “progressive” i feel crazy tbh😭
You're not crazy. They are. They're living in a delusion. Racism is nothing like what they think it is. Actual racism is treating others poorly/as lesser than because of their race (especially if they are a minority in the overall population). Stay strong. You're not crazy or going crazy.
The headteacher is an idiot who clearly doesn't understand History and has decided to import the narrative from the USA. It's actually offensive to treat "black history" in this way to black British ppl. They rather inconveniently don't agree that they're all oppressed. If they came to the UK in the last twenty years they probably come from privileged families in Africa that value education and therefore have good jobs in a society that traditionally values merit.
Oh god I'm from the UK and it scared me that the future of the UK will be like America now with the politics and the woke people. This makes me scared for the future
I'm a cashier. I was called racist for 1. Not cutting meat the thickness the person wanted even though he walked away befire I could ask him. 2. Making a woman with 30 items get out of the 10 items or less aisle. 3. Geting in between a male customer and my best friend who is a girl. 4. Saying "Bruh," "homie," and "dawg" among other things. I'm from the deep South. 5. My register not working. 6. Saying that I like Candace Owens and Brett Cooper. 7. Not having a particular item. 8. Getting my brown skinned godchild a banana because he asked for one. The person calling me racist wasn't from my town. I think that's it.
I was asked about my pronouns just once (the Netherlands hasn’t gone bonkers yet), and I told them I was ‘egosexual’ and my pronouns are I/me/my. Good luck referring to me in a conversation. Would they have objected to my sexuality, I would have called them bigoted and transphobic. Unleash the craziness on the crazy!
Last month I was interviewed in a job and one of the questions was to me define what "woman" means. I didn't got to this question, but I saw it on the paper. They stopped the interview when I mentioned that I (an obese woman) go to the gym because I need to lose weight (this made the interviewer's eye twitch) to make a surgery in my breasts. She asked me "oh, are you transitioning?" and I answered "no, I just have a severe back pain, I plan in reducing them, not taking them off completely" (my breasts are indeed huge because of hormonal problems). She said that "unfortunately we can't hire a non-diverse person" and I was glad that I didn't mentioned that I'm neurodivergent. I just asked "So tell me: did you even read my resume or did you just got my phone number?" "Just the phone number." "Thanks." and I left.
@@Akihito007 They are fairly common depending on the job, it was a physically demanding job, so they kinda have to know if you are physically active. But the transition question I think she just asked out of curiosity.
@randomthoughts6680 Fair point! I probably wouldn't tell a potential employer that I was hoping to take time off for a surgery if I weren't sure yet, but honesty is good. My tmi: I've had that surgery. Painful recovery but worth it.
I had en entire week for women in architecture... Technically true, the lecturers were women and only talked about themselves and the books they wrote. Specially how we should buy their books. Students were confused and we only stared at each other. That was the entire week.... I learned more about women in architecture with my history teacher, he was a man...
An ex friend of mine said when he was in school, the local college (UK) had some of the teachers who taught engineering come in to give a talk. Apparently they were pushing quite hard and promoting the course mainly towards girls, as they were desperate to get more girls to apply. At the end they asked who would think about applying for the course, I’m not sure of the exact amount but say out of 200 people, only 1 girl raised her hand and the rest were boys.
@@loganblackwood2922 I forget which Uni and I’m not sure if they still offer it but any ways, several years ago I heard about a university here in England that offered a scholarship but only to women, they wanted to increase the numbers of women again like the school of my ex-friend, to do the engineering degree. The funny thing is the vast majority of women who go into the industry, leave after about 5 years. In other words, it was kind of pointless offering a scholarship to a demographic of people who end up leaving the industry not long after going into it.
@@JamesAlex88 When they tried this in Australia, they included pick up a scholarship (you would just get it paid for) and it was all female classes for engineering, still no women turned up.
A black Conservative man on the radio said that if a young black man went into Engineering, he would be treated like a star sports figure and everyone would want to sign him up.
Same. I got it from my mother 😂 Obstinate as a mule as dad always said. The harder someone tries to make us do something against our will, the more it makes us want to resist. I used to think it a bit of a curse when I was younger, but now I’m thinking it’s one of the things that saved me from being drawn into the woke cult.
I was laid off at age 60 during Covid and have worked at various contract jobs since, finally deciding I am happiest working remotely. My last 2 retail jobs during this time included diversity training, especially as one is a major national discount retailer. I was shocked in 2018 by my then healthcare employer introducing the use of pronouns for patient registration, and have watched diversity practices accelerate markedly since. Having grown up in the flower child 1960s (the make love, not war era) I have a hard time wrapping my head around supposedly "inclusive" workplace standards that effectively repress expression of people's cultural, religious, cis, or nonbinary selves alongside woke, nonreligious, atheist, trans, or binary ones. This is neither equity nor equality. This is The Emperor's New Clothes - we have to pretend this is normal and okay, when I think in reality as a society we are all being groomed to be a homogeneous submissive public for the benefit of corporate entities who profit. This is not diversity! There used to be a common saying for a reason - never discuss sex, politics, or religion. They should remain private decisions and have no place in the workplace IMHO. If you care to express these opinions on social media, you should have the Constitutional right of free speech to do so as long as you are not supporting criminal or illegal acts.
I have never joined Facebook or Instagram. I enjoy You Tube and that is the extent of my social media experience. Nothing else. I cannot get hired in a lot of areas due to it. I have been told “it’s suspicious.” I am 50 and chose to never have children, so I was able to retire in my 40’s. I saw this madness coming in the 80’s and have been training for it since. Best of luck!
I love biology, anatomy and especially epidemiology. So one day when I'm watching chubbyemu and he said something to the effect of: "those assigned female at birth" or "presenting as female", I knew the jig was up. You can't pride yourself on medical knowledge while deliberately ignoring anatomical and biological reality. Same with SciShow and their inability to say *women* have periods. As far as I know the Institute of Human Anatomy is still based and their videos very informative.
Here’s my woke work story: So I work for a company that supplies plants to Walmarts in the tri state area. My boss and I noticed at one particular location in NJ a lot of products were being taken out without being purchased. We do inventory every two weeks or so to check this. We figured it was because some products are too big for the carts so customers would bring one plant in, scan it multiple times, and then pull their car up, and then load the purchased plants in the car. We figured people were just taking plants they didn’t pre pay for inside and were just loading in extra plants they didn’t pay for in their cars. So my boss implanted a new policy: we have to ask to see receipts first before we let people just take products and load them in their cars to make sure they actually purchased the plants. It makes sense right? So one day I’m working outside and there was a man who pulled up his car after walking out of the store with only two plants. He started loading more plants in his car and I mean a lot of plants and our more expensive ones. I then get his attention, stop him and say “sir, I need to see a receipt first before you can load those plants.” And then this man says in the most angry and aggressive manner “why?! Because I’m black I’m automatically stealing , you racist bitch!” This man looked like he wanted to beat me up. His fists are clenched and everything. Keep in mind I’m a five foot skinny biracial (Asian/white) girl with spaghetti limbs and little no upper body strength and this is a muscular five foot eight dude who I didn’t take the time to care that he’s black until he pointed it out. I get scared and I’m trying to stay calm so I say “it’s policy for my company to ask for receipts first, I don’t think you’re stealing but it’s policy.” And then he gets even more mad and steps forward all threatening going “I bet you don’t do this for all the white folks. Asians at it again always pandering to the white man like it’s going to get them somewhere. Kissing their asses. Fuck you!” So he goes to load his plants and I’m so upset at this point so I’m just saying “sir please i do this for all customers it’s policy.” And the guy just shoves me to the ground. And everyone is staring like he’s causing a scene. Eventually my saint of a boss overhears and sees me on the ground trying not to cry because this man looks like he’s going to beat me up and he’s looking all threatening at me. He walks up all badass and goes “problem here?” And I took so much satisfaction in seeing this bully’s face and confidence drain when he sees my boss: a big tattooed, burly, muscular, long bearded, seven foot tall, gorilla man. My boss just helps me up, taps my shoulder and says “I’ll handle this honey you go back to work.” And my boss grabs the guy like literally grabs him by the shirt and drags him over to the side. And then the dude who threatened me apologizes (insincere as it seemed) and showed me the receipt. I asked my boss how he got this guy to cut it out and apologize of all things. My boss all badass says “I simply told him that real men don’t threaten little ladies like yourself who are half their size. Only whiny, insecure, man babies with tiny dicks do that.” God my boss is such a badass and gentleman. I swear these woke ideals of CRT and systematic racism and making it seem like everything is racist is making people so entitled that they act this way whether it’s being publicly threatening and arrogant and self righteous or downright criminal behavior. And then the woke lefties allow it and excuse it.
Nice story, I liked it, in case there are no real men around to protect you again from the cowards that seem to be everywhere nowadays, get a gun and train with it. They are great equalizers.
@@sigsauer7929 Yes, get pepper spray at least and learn some self defense moves. Too many vicious narcissists out there nowadays. "When seconds count, the police are just minutes away."
Girl I too have a (sort of) similar story to yours when I worked at a large box store for like three months in a city I no longer live in. These two natives (I'm canadian) used threatening words and excused me of excusing them of stealing things when i was told to go and check on them and see how they were doing/if they needed help with anything. Now I'm not a small woman (5'5 white and an average weight) however I am extremely sensitive and probably too much of a people pleaser. I went home and cried that day as I had mostly positive experiences with Indigenous people up until that point in my life. I quit not long after that. I moved back to my hometown and now work a much better job that I've been at for almost a year now!
I worked for Walmart. We were told in training we cannot, whatsoever, ask a black person for their receipt. It's ridiculous. We also had to wear red on Tuesdays to support women in the workplace. I got sent home for not wearing red. Oh and then I also got in trouble for not wearing a pronoun pin. Like if you can't tell I am a woman, we have a nice selection of glasses for you to choose from.
If you delete your Instagram and other social media, then crazy people won't even know what you think or say, at least online. Life is so much better without all those awful platforms that sell your info to 3rd parties without your permission anyway.
This guy I worked with asked why we didn't have 73 bathrooms when there are 73 genders. Keep in mind this was a Dollar General. Not wanting to get into some insane political debate I just said, "I'm not cleaning 73 bathrooms every night." He shut up really quick.
Also, if gender isn’t related to sex then why do they need bathrooms for different genders? I thought it wasn’t related? Why does getting medical intervention to try to make your sex match your “gender identity” get labeled as “gender-affirming care” if they aren’t the same?
I'm an old guy, retired in 2019. I am glad I never have to deal with any of this. It literally wasn't out there a few years ago. I really hope sanity returns to the world.
@@silververnallbells191I'm curious, do you woke socialist democrat sheep actually believe the sily book banning propaganda or do you just like to repeat it like a baaah.
I’m an engineer that works in manufacturing. In June 2022 the company I was interning for invited a drag queen on site, “encouraged” my intern class to perform at the pride show, and attend lectures by trans activists held on site during work hours. Considering all of us were fighting for full time offers and the pressure was coming directly from the highest leadership at the site, the “optional participation” was obviously not optional. I spent my final semester in college applying to literally any other company.
You are my type of woman. Congrats on awakening from the “woke” . Very glad to see others younger than myself(I am 30 ) on the same page as me and many others here. And we are glad to have you on the “right” as they call us
For years, I volunteered and did administrative/strategic work for a local live-action role-playing group. I criticized one of the shifts that I saw happening, that those seen as "more able" needed to be okay with other players' behavior attributed to their so-called neurodivergence. They had a meltdown? I needed to "hold space". A bunch of people wanted to play easily triggered PTSD characters whose actions targeted my character? I needed to watch my privilege. The moment my character in this fantasy world gained sufficient power, all of a sudden, I (as a player) was targeted with all sorts of allegations. The wild thing was that the organizers couldn't give me specifics. And when I pointed out the timing (my character gaining a prominent role days before the deluge of accusations), I was told that the investigations had been behind the scenes for some time. Right... Interesting that they became public just in time to knock me down.
It's so wild that psychologists are now expected to "affirm". One of the most freeing and healing things I've experienced in therapy was my therapist NOT affirming my unhealthy belief about myself, but accepting it as something I'm experiencing, not engaging with it to either argue or affirm, but letting me know she understood what I was telling her and accepted me with it. Guess what - that was what gave me strength to actually confront that belief and work through it. I'm so sad and, frankly, furious that confused, suffering people are offered unprofessional, anti-therapeutic ideological BS instead of real help.
Parents need to be on top of the school stuff. A bunch of the parents in my school district got together and there is currently a lawsuit. They released the curriculum last year, and while some topics are normal (hygiene, healthy relationships ect.) But they sprinkled the leftist trans ideology in there. Some grades (especially Pre-K and Kindergarten) had an outright inappropriate and outrageous curriculum that seemed to be focused on sexualizing and confusing the kids. It was appalling, needless to say I no longer give the school any leeway or benefit of the doubt. The only reason my son isn't homeschooled is because on top of his ap classes, extra curriculars, and friends we also have a very good relationship with open honest communication. So I'm not concerned about one of these looney tune adults brainwashing him. Given all this happening last year. When I opted him out I explained why in an age appropriate way, and I told him if he had any questions about what he's hearing from his classmates to come to his dad and I. Also in our state per the law (I just double checked this the other day) the school is supposed to be transparent about the class and given an opt out option. Well, obviously I opted my son out last year. This year he started middle school. As I was reviewing his classes on the app, I noticed all of them had detailed notes about the material currently being taught, except one. The name of the class was adolescent studies. So I reached out to the teacher and asked for a syllabus. She sent me, I guess you could call it a flyer, because it was extremely vague. But the last thing listed was human growth and development. Which is what they called the class last year. So I then asked if she was following the curriculum that was sent out last year. She said YES. I was livid but I thanked her and immediately scheduled a meeting with the principal. I was even more livid, when I went back to the link I had saved to view the curriculum so I could be better prepared for the meeting and it had been completely erased from the district site. To summarize: Instead of doing what they are legally obligated to do, being transparent with the parents and being given the option to opt their children out. They changed the name of the class and essentially made it mandatory, as every kid is enrolled in it automatically. While also erasing it's existence from the district site. These schools run on tax payers money. These school officials are paid by us. Yet, they are intentionally deceptive in an attempt to indoctrinate our children. To say I was livid is actually an understatement. I had a very tense and frank conversation with the principal, my son now has a study hall that hour. Best believe this is being added to the lawsuit. After the meeting I let all of the other parents know, so now kids are dropping that class left and right. I am especially despised by the Wokies in our district (they are a very loud, unhinged and violent minority) because last year everyone seemed afraid to speak up about it. Until I decided to print and highlight the overtly sexual, trans propaganda, and the nonsense stuff from the ideology not based in reality or fact. That started the conversation, and when parents started to realize that they weren't going crazy and they weren't standing alone everyone started speaking out. This year with me giving everyone a heads up about the class, I essentially opened the can of worms again. So yeah I'm openly hated. I've been threatened, berated, and even cry/screamed at. But I don't care, not even a little. They get especially frustrated. Not only because I don't care, so therefore I am always calm and just debunking their nonsense, but they also can't get my fired and I have no social media. So all they can do is whine. Protecting my kid is first priority, and I could careless about the opinions of others when it comes to that. Even if I was in jeopardy of losing my job, it wouldn't change anything, I will never sacrifice my child for anything. Period. Stop being afraid and speak up. These people are the minority. They're just loud and violent which is why most institutions like individuals stay silent and fall in line. They can't bully and silence everyone.
Great comment, and great job protecting the kids. It is hard to believe that the federal and local governments would attack our kid's mental and emotional well-being like this, but it is true. This is happening across our country in public schools and some private, with the support of our federal government through multiple DEI executive orders, and the policies from the corrupt NEA. The democrats truly have gone insane.
I go to an arts highschool in New Haven, Connecticut and as you can imagine the whole community is VERY woke. I myself am pretty far left, yet my classmates see me as some kind of right wing extremist because of my opinions. I learned this the hard way after losing friends because i said minors shouldn’t be able to consent to mastectomies. It’s a nightmare.
I am an old lady but I get it. Always considered myself a liberal and my ideas haven't changed. But the goalposts have changed. Keep to your convictions but don't argue unnecessarily, because your words will be wasted on them. HS Seems like a huge deal now but soon it won't be. The right friend group will come to you organically; just give it time.
"Friends" no great loss then, fuck em! There was a time when these freaks were just accepted as people with mental issues but now they have successfully made themselves universally hated by normal heterosexuals. Well done, you have now achieved the complete opposite of what you set out to do. Our society is in terminal decline with no way back.
Really love videos like these where you let the community tell you their woke experiences. Really it is great and keep the hard work up. Truly a blessing in this crazy world!
I agree with your assessment of psychology. I majored in psychology for my undergrad and then went for a masters in social work. While working on my masters, I served an internship at a law firm and realized the clients are very much the same. So now I’m going through law school since I honestly cannot see myself affirming ridiculous ideologies as a social worker or psychologist
I've wanted to be a therapist since I was a little kid. I'm about to start college and had to give up on that dream because I refuse to do the same thing. I also can't imagine what the curriculum looks like these days with gender identity taking over. Good luck pursuing your law degree!
@@timothyswindell4924 And it's such a shame that we are losing great people like yourself, who had that passion to join the profession to do good and help people. However, I don't blame you. Anyone with a soul would not participate in such evil.
New subscriber here! I used to work for Starbucks for almost two years, I left in November 2022. Someone knew my political beliefs and legit tried to get me fired by calling transphobic and racist. My current job is OBVIOUSLY left owned, small local business. It’s night and day from my last job. Current job isn’t using their platform for politics and they never shove it down anyone’s throats and I appreciate it. It’s great to see that small percentage of the left behave normally. They’re obviously allowed to have differences in beliefs, politics, etc. after all it’s supposed to be a free country! The summary of this comment is I’m most definitely right leaning, but working in a left owned business that respects my personal beliefs if they know what they are or not! The company even follows me on socials and my platforms are public and they can so easily look thru my following list and see the conservative profiles on there. It’s such a shame to see others struggle with this political favoritism even when you keep to yourself about it. It’s actually quite rude and disrespectful in most work places to even talk politics because your reputation and platform shouldn’t be based on politics in the work force (except for gov. Positions n stuff like that obviously) but simple food service and retail jobs shouldn’t discriminate any person based on any political beliefs it’s completely unethical. Quite a long comment for my first hour being subscribed to you but I’m just so passionate about this stuff. Thanks for sharing your content I love it :)
Yeah i do agree that some on the left aren't insane because I have an aunt that is Democratic but isn't requesting from my family for their pronouns for being crazy
I worked for Starbucks for years. I’m a post op fully passable transsexual. Years of therapy, surgeries, and hormones. If you saw me you’d assume I was just a normal female, but because it was such an accepting environment and I liked to educate people on my condition, I was open about being TS. I was the only one for years. Never had any issues. Flash forward to the pandemic and suddenly every gay man there is calling himself trans, we got a bunch of they/thems, we even got a heterosexual married father who claimed trans! Mind you most of these people it’s just clothing. I had a man with a beard and a pronoun pin report ME for being transphobic! All I did was ask a polite question! I said “forgive me for not understanding I’m just trying to learn, but do you no longer need to medically transition to be trans?” And I got written up for Questioning someone’s gender, because the bearded man in a dress got offended! That job has now started to tell workers there is a list of words that cannot be said! White paper, hey guys, etc!! Woke insanity!!! How can a transsexual be transphobic!?
Its always #believewomen with these people until actual women have concerns about their personal safety (and rights as a parent, etc) due to things we women literally predicted would happen when you allow this bs.
If it makes you feel any better they have erased actual transsexuals also. TransGENDER and non binary are now running the show, and some are even accusing actual transsexuals of being bigots!
Im a pharmacy student in France and we have this new thing it’s a day focused on the mental health and living conditions of students in health studies etc, and I was actually interested in it because it’s not usual for them to care lol. And when I looked at the programm of the day, ALL speeches and lectures are about our sex lives and how we should accept diversity to create a safe space and that kind of bullshit. (And I have to say, it is creepy for teachers to want to have conversations with us about our sex lives)
I work for a large company and we were just told this week about a new internet policy. The company is paying a background check company to hardcore check into potential and current employees' internet presence, and I was specifically told by a manager that even if accounts are not in our real name, the company will be looking and if we even "like" something they don't approve of, we could be fired. It's a huge overreach. This was on the same day we were forced to watch a documentary at work with leftist political themes.
As a left-leaning guy who takes pride in actually thinking through his positions, you best believe I'm following level headed people who disagree with me. We don't disagree as much as some might assume though.
Right, like I don’t agree that trans women are women. They are trans, I’m biological. I don’t agree to being called cishet or cis-woman, I’m just a woman. But that doesn’t mean I don’t treat trans folk (or folx) with respect. That doesn’t mean I don’t still love all of God’s children, there’s just a difference. Maybe we are more moderate.
@@Raphaeltheslayer it's a cringey "more inclusive" way to say folks. it makes no sense since folks is already not gender specific and is just another way for people to feel special
You're not being logical until you can admit Donald Trump was embarrassingly the least evil president in 40+ years. Whatever side you're on, unless you can admit that you're still blind to the corruption of Reagan, Bush sr, Clinton, Bush W, Obama, and Biden.
Love that you are speaking up about therapy and what not. It is something that I also have found fascinating my entire life and now it is terrifying. Therapy should NOT be affirming, first it needs to be inquisitive and oftentimes needs to push back. It really is scary to imagine the future if we continue on this path. It is not helpful or healthy to ANYONE.
Misha I just watched this video, it’s my first of yours. Ayn Rand wrote Atlas Shrugged in 1957. In that book she reveals the final outcome of a fictional society that rewards the most needy at the expense of the less needy. It doesn’t end well. Good content, keep it up.
I think this is the first time I have said this,I’m glad I’m old 😳! I can’t imagine going through life walking on eggshells. Definitely not now and wouldn’t if I was young again. Love what you are doing and keep up the great work. 🇺🇸
I tried to get into education with a noble goal: To teach children, and to provide a positive male role model to the many kids that grow up without a dad. I was harassed out of college. I will homeschool my kids
I got permanently banned for criticizing the fact that a mod said that anyone who thinks J K Rowling is not extremely transphobic should be permanently banned. I didn't even express my opinion that she's not transphobic, I simply said that such censorship was a bad idea and we should be able to debate. The existence of a number of rival trans and detrans subreddits that make the same point you made proves your point beyond doubt. They couldn't argue with you so they ban.
Because I am a white straight European male and you have beautiful blue eyes I will comment. The way I was brought up was “at work, at formal settings, and with strangers, we don’t talk about sex, politics, religion”. So I shut up in those circumstances and avoid needless confrontations. We cannot change adults, especially adult idiots. Moreover, Misha, if behind this push there is the issue of the ESG score, do you think that they will stop because we regular guys “voice our disagreement”? My answer is no. As an adult I was taught: “adapt and survive”. My adaptation tactics are as follows: Social media as a whole is no longer the place to be, I am cutting social media presence and usage, and migrating away from mainstream platforms. I will speak loudly with my vote I will defend my kids and my family by any means possible. If they cancel you, Misha, you are still you and we (read you and followers) will reconnect somehow: low tech, high tech, who knows. Continue your work. I appreciate it even though I think the main issue is we have a rather large segment of the world population with a full belly and too lazy to think. When they will be hungry they will be based again.
Your boy wants to play with a doll and its the parents who are actively projecting the idea onto them that they're born wrong....how could we let it go this far, the parents are the issue not the kids.
Yeah ikr. I thought we spend years saying that there are no such thing as boys or girls toys and it's ok to play with whatever, now it's gone back to gendered
@@orangesnowflake3769 exactly right, saves the corporations billions in having to rebrand every thing though right, also makes billions by creating entirely new fields of psychology not to mention all the surgeries, then you have the constant trauma of being called the wrong label, that leads to more doctors and more money, it's all about the $$
Honestly this might be my biggest issue with the gender ideology. Actual feminists fought for the deconstruction of gender roles basically so this kind of thing wouldnt happen, and now kids are told if they dont fit into that same exact box that was deconstructed decades ago, they are a girl. Its bs. You are not any less of a man if you are more feminine or like to play with dolls or something and vice versa for girls. For an ideology that pushes freedom and diversity, they really seem to want to fit into a lot of boxes and labels
I remember when I was young and MC Hammer had a cartoon called, Hammer Man. I wanted an action figure of him to reenact the cartoon. I could only get a doll version of MC Hammer because there were no action figures. I brought the doll to school and wasn't made fun of because kids knew about the cartoon. Was never judged for having a girl toy.
Hearing and reading about testimonials like this make me feel very fortunate that most of my co-workers are not from the US and don't subscribe to any of this insanity because it's not part of their culture. They are far easier to talk to (in English even if it's not their native language) and are way more down to earth than these neurotic woke people I've come across online or in person. For instance, when I was volunteering to start a new con where I live (I was one of the original co-founders), everything went smoothly until some very woke people joined our staff. The worst one was a self-described Antifa, non-binary, indigenous, queer activist who was able to get away with cursing and being disrespectful against anyone who challenged her far-left views because the person in charge of HR (also her personal friend and political ally) defended her. She often said she only wanted to hear from voices of people of color. She looked just like a butch white woman married to another white man. Last time I heard, she quit the con because she wanted the con to get more politically involved and the con (surprisingly) did not give into her demands.
Antifa Gives America a Week of Kristalnacht "The name Antifa is a kind of in joke played of people with little or no knowledge of history. It is supposed to mean Anti Fascist, but that also is a private joke. Fascism is an economic system based on Socialism and was adopted by 30 to 40 countries in the 1920's and 1930's" -ebay Community
If someone says they support you and cannot follow you because of stuff like this they're not supporting you they're supporting the other side by allowing the other side to control their actions
May I just say: While I am a bit more progressive and left-ish-leaning, I’m definitely not far left. I do feel that I’m more of a “Somewhere in the middle” type. I don’t SOLELY follow left or right values - nor do I WHOLLY disagree with left or right values. I love your content! I’m a new and recent subscriber. Please keep this kind of stuff up; everyone is so freaking polarized, and it feels nice to have someone who seems level-headed about everything. I have far left/right friends, and anyone in-between. I really don’t care what people’s political views are, so long as we’re all kind to one another.
my last boss was super woke and would regularly stalk her employees online and judge their online presence as part of work it was f'd up. Eventually she pretended I didn't do a lock check, by throwing away my progress paper on the lock check and claiming she checked the cameras and I didn't do it. I told her she needs to get her eyes checked and I wanted HR to go over the footage... they didn't and I left the company.
Very interesting and nuanced opinions here. Great content. I started therapy around 13 years old. in my experience the younger millennial aged therapists are trained to challenge beliefs but not to change behavior.
Back in 2019 was when I first realized things were going seriously wrong. I had just started working in higher education, and a male with green hair and high heels followed me into the restroom. Obviously I was horrified. Honestly, how can they think it's okay to invade women's privacy in the restroom? Anyway, I go to my supervisor, a man in his 70's, who is also horrified, but comes back to me after speaking with HR. Of course we're informed that this is all within his rights. Another supervisor tells me he was 'testing the waters.' I hope my shock and horror was enough to keep him out of women's restrooms in the future. The social work department where I worked as a staff member was completely racist against white people. I ended up changing departments, but it doesn't matter. Academia is like a cancer infecting everyone in it's path. Even those who are 'right-leaning' are all completely brainwashed to the ideology, and of course the pharma nonsense. I wouldn't believe this was really happening if I wasn't living it. Thank you Misha for giving us a place to vent with like minded individuals.
The person who described the forced diversity training as telling you to invite the gay coworker is pretty accurate. I would never hang out with coworkers outside of work, but if I did it certainly wouldn't be with someone who made me uncomfortable. Males masquerading as females make me highly uncomfortable. It's so messed up. There are also organize black retreats. I personally don't see anything wrong with wanting to be around people you resonate with, but how they advertise it is just racist.
In my mom's job they can't send chrismtas wishes, and instead only new year one. A few years ago one of the coworkers send to everyone wishes related to the firm's strategy and he used three kings in them. My mom really liked this wishes, so when she bumped into this man she thanked him for them. And this man was shocked and asked her if she's serious? My mom was confused why he would think like she didn't mean it and it turned up to be like that because he got scowled by the others how they feelings got hurt because three kings are from christian believes, yadda yadda. My mom was speechless
I've been on the left side of political things my entire life but have noticed if I am seen reading the wrong books, or daring to admit that the author makes SOME good points, then the screaming on the part of a few of my leftist friends starts. Most recently this occurred when I discussed TRANS by Helen Joyce online. I've rarely had any similar experiences with my Conservative friends.
It's becoming much more common for job applications to ask what your sexuality is under the guise of the question simply being for statistics. I don't even like the race question on most applications but sexuality? I don't understand how that's even legal. What the hell does that have anything to do with the job? I've even seen versions of the question that don't offer a 'decline to answer' option. Ironically, even my hardcore leftist friend does not agree with that question being allowed on job applications.
I've worked in HR for 5 years and have only had to say something to employees 2x about inappropriate workplace behavior- a mass email telling people not to hook up at office parties and a talk with one guy who kept going on long rants about Mexicans. Most of my time is spent working to protect employees from the upper management trying to screw them, and thats how it should be. But its completely up the the HR rep how they handle it
I work in the public sector. When I onboarded with the division, we naturally had all sorts of trainings. Being in an IT-type position, I was expecting security and workflow training. Instead, almost all of the onboarding was heavily coated to conform employees to a particular work culture. There were several meetings to recruit employees into the labor union. Meetings to engage with employees working in very different areas whom I never heard from again. There was also a mandatory meeting with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion led by a person who graduated less than 3 years ago. They spoke about their experience, why they matter, and why we should respect their job. The young girl also laid out the system in place to punish people who disrespect that agenda. Needless to say, these people and these agendas are deeply rooted in public sector culture. Tax dollars are specifically being used to fund these positions without any confirmation from voters. It should terrify us how little autonomy we as citizens have over our own government.
Comment on the Psychologist role: I spent 10 years on disability for severe mental disorder(s) and still see my psychologist regularly. The role of a psychologist (counselor, psychiatrist, whatever) is definitely not to affirm anything and make you feel better about yourself. Whatever you're working on, it is their role to challenge you, educate you and give you the tools to progress in your struggle. I went from someone who the thought of stepping on the front porch for the newspaper would cause panic attacks to someone who has 2 college degrees and has returned to work. It took years, and it wouldn't have happened if the one charged with helping me get better just affirmed that it was ok to just be the way I was.
That's the why I fear the new generation of professionals because if we consider the current trendy of having a random mental issue to be quirky, or the internet/tiktok doctors, then what would happen in the future? They would be "look at generic symptoms and say 'you have ADH'"? 😰
This is why my socials are private and don't show my face or have coworkers on there. I wish we could go back to the days when we could keep who we voted for to ourselves in the workplace.
Not gonna lie, I'm happy to be working in tech for this exact reason, it's a very male dominated field and most people there are your average straight nerdy dudes who couldn't give two shits about these things. I'm not even right leaning, I just like to follow people with different opinions so I can witness all sides of the discussions and form my own opinions based on that instead of staying in an echo chamber of either side. ps. omg I need whatever lipstick you are using, that shade is perfect
Fully passable transsexual here. MTF. Came out before this transgender craze. Got all my surgeries and look and sound female. Work for a woke corporation. I was the only TS, and because I like to educate people (or used to) I am open about it. (Was) The last few years we’ve gotten an influx of gay men in make up, they/thems, even a heterosexual crossdressing man. Bizarre. The gay dude with a beard and make up recently changed HIS pronouns to SHE. He presents fully male has a man body and voice and just has lipgloss on and a beard. I asked him “do you no longer need to transition to be trans?, I’m trying to learn how this all works now” and he reported me to HR for questioning someone’s gender. I am in an appeal now trying to fight this. People like him are forcing actual transsexuals into deep stealth, I no longer tell anyone I’m TS, no longer try to educate people on my medical condition, and just stay private. I am looking for a new position. Myself and my conservative bf are just a normal couple from the outside, he hunts, we love America etc, these woke idiots claim I’m a transphobe and my bf is a patriarchal cis oppresser! So now men who toss on a pronoun pin can call actual transsexuals who have gone through years of therapy and surgery and WORKED to earn being called SHE a bigot!? These people have ruined what trans even means. It’s lost any medical or clinical criteria and is now a catch all club for anyone who has no identity! Complete erasure of TS. 🤦🏻♀️
@eenbankberoven speaking of autism, as an autistic myself (updated diagnosis since July 2023 from a licensed doctor), that pisses me off. Adding more fuel to the fire, I don't know what's more shocking. A, people intentionally think we our disability "disease" as an excuse, yet they demand everyone to respect anyone's sex change. B, they say they know autism because they have worked with autistics, have a son/daughter with autism, and only know it because of that one person & not realizing that every single autistic is different, despite being an expert, or C. Lying about being autistic just to get benefits like SSI/SSDI. Back to the OG comment, yo Tula! Thank you for being the first transgender with common sense and the education to understand that Gay and Transgender are NOT the same 👏👏👏. I never thought I would ever see or meet a transgender saying this wise words regarding facts. Special Message To ALL Feminazis & anyone LGBTQIALMOP: FIRST & FOREMOST, A sexual preference is NOT the same as a change. SECOND, respect is EARNED. Your sex change or your homosexuality does NOT automatically grant you respect. That goes the same for anyone straight as well and all 6 races, both sexes, all nationalities, foreign or domestic, and anyone disabled or not. THIRD, if you get triggered of my presence or anyone's presence without a reason, you are a chicken shit. As long as I am not doing anything illegal, STFU & MYOB. Grow up. FOURTH & FINALLY: I will not use or respect your pronouns. I will call you by your name that you want to be called & no not your stripper name or any name deemed inappropriate or illegal. No exceptions. No special treatment. No excuses. If you were Burt and now you are Beth, I will call you Beth. "Why should I be forced to respect your sex change when you people refuse to understand my disability."
a (former) friend of mine is currently on a woke bender, the last 2 years he's been fired from 4 jobs, because he tried to get other people fired over jokes or slip of the tongues. Problem is, this guy really is a narcisist (not the social media version, a real one) and if he doesn't get his way, he'll keep bothering people untill they bend to his will. Unfortunately, that doesn't work with employers. Last week he even managed to get voted out of his council position at our pub/association because he kept claiming racism etc etc.
For the last few years my workplace has had diversity training which pretty much told me I am racist for being born white through videos and reading materials (even though I try to treat people how they treat me). Then we had to take a 'test' at the end which was obviously to weed out any 'racist employees' and were encouraged (read forced as it wouldn't let you past the page otherwise) to complete a review of what we thought of the course.
If you work for a larger company I don't think it would be an issue. They don't want to get sued. But they definitely could look you up before and not hire you. Maybe use a different email and not your real name for your socials.
It doesn’t take too long to work through renaming and hiding accounts, a couple days at most. The harder part is if your name comes up in an article, as journalists are protected under freedom of speech.
Despite having multiple victim cards in my racial makeup, I apparently present as white. I’ve had people ask me if I agree that it’s hard for white straight males to have an opinion, just to be openly laughed at and derided, when I told them it can be. Pointing at the supremacy of men in the past, as if that’s somehow justification to belittle us now, because it’s just “our turn”
Being a "white presenting" minority is definitely a trip. I'm Gen X. You think it's bad now.... If I spoke up, I was the problem. Do you hate yourself or do you lose your job? "What are you" haunts me to this day. I love being diverse but it definitely has its challenges.
I used to be more on the left side before I started looking into stuff but I've totally changed my mind about certain things. Anywho just because you don't like the other side doesn't mean you should wish them to die or anyting bad.. it reminds me of the whole situation with the rich people that died in the submarine, so many people were happy they died but honestly I was sad. Just because they were rich; doesn't mean they deserve to die. I would love to be rich one day myself 😅
earlier these year I joined an art half day program in Connecticut, I knew from the start it would be somewhat woke as pride flags lined the walls with pronouns etc. I was a right-wing conservative and didn’t agree with the veiws, but I lived art and beleived that if I ignored it, it would go away. The first day they immediately asked for my pronouns. I left that blank. The next day the teachers asked what our pronouns were and what out pronouns were around our parents. Showing that they are hiding their students mental illness from their parents. We sat in the auditorium for 45 minutes almost everyday for them to talk about BLM, activism and Pride. As a Christian I have no problem with Blm or activists in general. But I see Lgbtq (gay, trans etc) as a sin. I will not go out of my way to harm you, but I will not take part in your sin. I am 14 this was my experience I left in a week
this kinda reminds me of fahrenheit 451. like, i didn't love the book (it was a bit too metaphorical for me and i never cared about what happened to the characters, lol), but i really agreed with the idea that we shouldn't censor what we say just because it might hurt someone's feelings. It's scary to think that that's kind of the direction america is headed in, though...
something funny that happened at my job once is that we had a training tape that included using gender neutral terms for customers and we literally did not follow it, not even my boss
I’m a young, black, pansexual female who’s neither on the left nor the right (but probably more right leaning) and it’s so funny to me that my old, white, straight male friend who’s far left tells me that I’m homophobic or racist and that I should be offended by certain things because of how “oppressed” I am😂. I usually fight fire with fire so I always tell him that I’m the minority group that’s soooo oppressed so he has no right to tell me what’s offensive to my groups. That usually gets him to calm down but there was one time when he blocked me for saying that💀. (We’re still friends tho and he has recently started to hear me out about how dumb all this leftist stuff is).
@@elgatofelix8917 but I’m not a leftist? It was relevant to the story. That’s like saying because someone’s black, they’re obviously a democrat. There are different types of people and having something in common with one group doesn’t make you associated with that group. Y’all leftists and right winged people have so much in common and you don’t even realize that.
A few years ago, myself and fellow Directors were dragged into a session on Inclusivity and Diversity. We were told that if we said anything that could possibly be interpreted as discriminatory either by an individual or someone observing that we could be in trouble. I made the point that nothing is black and white: something I say might be considered completely innocent by one person and offend another person. The HR witch told me this wasn't possible. My only regret is that I didn't leave the room at this point.
I had to make a whole new set of social media accounts and I make sure not to connect with anyone I know, as almost everyone I know (friends, family etc) are far left. My sister went through my twitter and said "ugh, this is a bad look" about someone I retweeted. I feel so much freer now and actually enjoy social media, I can like and share without fear of people I know.
That’s kind of sad you felt you had to do that. If anyone you know gives you a hard time over who you follow, tell them to grow the hell up. If they don’t like it then that’s their problem.
@toshland5687 Thankyou, yes it is sad. Especially when they yell that I need to think for myself ( by thinking like them). I just got tired of dealing with it and here we are.
#1: Don't be on social media with your co-workers. #2: If you are questioned about this, tell them that social media is a blight to humanity and you're not on it. They will never be able to refute this.
This is not "being left", it's about a) doing a shit job as an employer, an employee and a teacher, b) using neither common sense nor heart, c) educating young people to be like that too. A guy I know was obsessed with educating his daughter in a liberal mindset, aka not teaching her respect or socializing her but making her believe that the entire world moved around her. She moved out to live with her mother (they were divorced) a day before Christmas, without an explanation. Years later she testified against her father in court because she wanted more alimony from him. This mindset is breeding monsters who believe they can do anything and think only of themselves. The people who support them will sooner or later realize that these people can change from being the ally to being the enemy within a minute. They will reap what they sow.
I am a preschool teacher and at my last job at this school I quit because they had a drag curriculum for the children (mind you they are between 2-5 years old) Now I refuse to work in any “woke” school. In fact when I do any interviews the first thing I ask them is “whats your 💉 policy?” And I also ask “if there is a kid in your classroom and they identify as non-binary or use they/them pronouns how do you as a school handle these situations?” And after they answer it makes me decide if I move on with my interview or not.
HR called me a Nazi and had me fired for telling on a Somalian co-worker that didnt do his job. Havent had a Job since thanks to the branding. and i know people there still, the somalians still have not done even 10 minutes work since they got hired this has been going on for many years...
I feel you. I asked women at work in 2018 “Could we could stop congregating for these cry sessions and get back to work? He’ll be in office til 2020 and this is ridiculous.” They all went to HR and made my life miserable. I just left. Didn’t have to be there.
You give me hope for your generation. You're my daughters age and we argue so much over everything. I don't talk to her about anything serious anymore or around her.
I have childhood friends and siblings who’ve gone through similar transformations. Don’t let your tensions flare and it will lend a lot in making you appear more stable (and more congenial) in the long run. It can take a long time for a line of thought to “click” in someone’s head. Don’t give up on serious conversation, those are the ones that keep people thinking. It’s more important to keep tensions low and give them a small win or find common ground every now and then, when it’s warranted of course.
@@TheRestedOneProblem is, he is worried about his daughter getting schlongedown by 6'6 Chaddeus Vladimir Thunderschlong III and Tyrone Tyreesius Dickerdown Brown, before she will listen to him about why things are going wrong for her.
I brought up The Good Doctor once in a conversation explaining that I have autism like Shawn and that I didn't understand Transgenderism as he did, and I was told, "That's no excuse, you're just using a TV Show to hide your bigotry." I never said anything negative about Transgenderism other than "I don't get it."
Should have told the person to go F themselves.
That person was the bigot, not you.
That definitely sounds like the average reaction of those people
@@mariposa9506 I've learned that. It really got to me because it was my first ever Woke experience. What made it worse is that it came out of nowhere during a comment thread and it was directed towards me. They said quote:
"@Yojimbo16 Some IRL non-binary people still use certain masculine pronouns. Not all of them, obviously; it's something that's different for all of them and you kinda just have to ask them about. It's not too much of a stretch that the canonically NB Roc use masculine pronouns even if he doesn't have to." unquote
My response:
"That's really confusing. It's just weird gameplay and story segregation. It threw me off when I discovered Roc didn't count towards Male/Female/Animal Blades when doing Merc Missions. I can't even recall if there's a merc mission where he's mandatory but I'm sure there are and I just forgot especially since Merc Missions are important to Roc's Affinity Chart Growth."
Their reply:
"I don’t find anything confusing about not being an ass about NB people’s preferred pronouns, and the same goes for Roc in this game. I wouldn’t call it “gameplay and story segregation” just because the specifics of Roc’s gender aren’t completely spelled out to you."
I thought there was a misunderstanding and that he took offense to something so I tried to explain that I didn't mean anything by that but it snowballed from there and got worse.
@@taki7546 There's another one in a different comment thread that said:
"Don’t act innocent, we all know you’d be a murderer too without consequences, based on the way you’ve described yourself viewing others."
I feel like a workplace shouldn’t be filled with politics or your personal beliefs, a workplace is about doing your job it’s about doing what you need to do and going home, you should never hire or fire just because politics, religion or race, people need to understand that.
but you have to bow to the god (DEI) or you're out.
Unless your job is literally in the field of politics, exactly correct! 👍
Politics shouldn’t be in the workplace. Red Bull got my respect when woke activists tried to bring DEI into it, and they said “We make energy drinks here. We don’t care about your politics.”
Because if you declare yourself to be on one political side or the other, you immediately lose 50% of your customer base. I don’t know why people don’t understand that.
Women brought it to the workplace. All this started when women and HR departments got power over the workplace. Everything is tailored for women to succeed, so then they start pushing beyond the good level and make things crazy.
There's a time societies reach the proper level of acceptance and tolerance. If you push it to far the fabric of polite society breaks down.
Common sense isn't common anymore.
About twenty years ago, my then workplace decided to promote more women, despite the fact that women outnumbered men at senior levels… Anyway, I attended a talk run by HR where it became very quickly obvious that only non-white women were in the frame. A Jamaican lady stood up and declared that, if her skin colour was more important to the company than her ability, she was leaving - and she walked out that room with the majority of the attendees, myself included, behind her. Yes, she later resigned.
Political Correctness has always been problematic.
Place I used to work, a coworker was complaining that men made more than women doing her job. It didn't seem to occur to her that women were 90% of the workforce and 100% of the decision making positions. If there was institutionalized sexism it was coming from the women.
@@AJadedLizard It's sad that more women are hired because we can be paid less and still do the work. Not because they want us there. It's to save money on talent.
@@Seen_not_heard That is literally not true, the Wage Gap has been debunked time and time again, if you're being paid less it's because you're not performing. If women were being paid less, there'd be no such thing as a male-dominated field, simple as.
@@Seen_not_heard because women settle for less, this also effects the men. Also why wages are stagnant, to include of corse the work from migrants. When you put low cutting women on the force with men, wages get slashed and the workforce doubles. No longer is it feasible to have an average job support a family.
@@Emppu_T.right on the nose
A while back, two of my workers, I have 23 total, inserted their preferred pronouns into their email signatures. I asked them to remove them and they both said I couldn't ask them to do that. I reminded them that this was my business and that our clients were looking to make financial decisions based on our solid and well researched advise. I did not need our clients to question why someone was putting something as ridiculous as she/her on their signature line when they were trusting us to manage their funds. In short, our clients don't want to deal with snowflakes who live in an alternate reality. One of the two removed the pronouns and apologized saying she felt pressured to do so by her co-worker. I removed the other from her job for failing to comply. You can virtue signal all you want, but not on my time and not when I'm paying you. She threatened to sue, I told her good luck with that. That was over a year ago, never heard a peep from she/her.
good on you.
lmfao, if she doesnt sue, you got fucking lucky, she could own your shithole business if she wanted, and I hope she does.
More employees like you please!
@@sylasgirlhe is a employer i think
I'd love to run my own business for exactly this reason
When my husband was active duty, I found out that I can’t have kids after some dark discoveries during an unrelated surgery. In short, I can conceive, but any pregnancy would become ectopic due to abnormalities along the fallopian tubes, and it would take a massively invasive procedure to fix it if I did. A few months after the surgery, one of the nurses on the base was talking to me about family planning (my husband was getting snipped to protect me from needing surgery). She mentioned that she doesn’t use the term “woman” anymore unless someone is trans. Instead, I was a “birthing person”.
I stopped and got a little heated with her. She knew I couldn’t get pregnant. I’m NOT a birthing person. I asked if that meant I was a man if I can’t get pregnant. She said “No” and that I was “something else…”
I got her supervisor in the room and demanded her firing from the DOD. It was not ok, and it was some sort of experimental thing to start being more politically correct .
So sorry that happened to you. You’re still a woman I mean you have the parts and xx chromosomes your parts just don’t work right.
I hate how they use women with fertility issues and compare them to trans women
The nurse is quite stupid it seems. Even when you apply Gender identity Logic. Youre still a women. Because you identify as a women. The way she said it, is disregarding that viewpoint and is basically not PC either.
I am so sorry this happened to you 😢 I hope you find some way to have children if that’s what you & your husband want! & honestly I hate medical care for military, I’ve only had one doctor in OB care I’ve actually liked
She was concerned about hypothetical patients who could be offended, all the while showing no concern for you- the actual patient- and your feelings.
Wait. Transgenders are women, but women aren't women? 😮
Real talk: don't ever be friends with your co-workers on social media. They aren't your real friends and it only puts you at risk of getting fired for liking or sharing the "wrong" content.
It's better not to have social media in the first place, or if there's decent knowledge of cybersecurity, it's much better to browse social media anonymously.
AMEN!
Good idea.
I'd say this is true for most co-workers, but there's usually atleast one cool co-worker that you can trust, (from my personal experience anyways).
Don't be on social media
I work at a law firm and one guy brought his husband and adopted baby daughter to work. Everyone loved it and went crazy and let them walk all over the office. A straight guy brought his biological baby daughter the next day and was asked to stay in the waiting area.
Shame on them,Pathetic Tools! 🤦🏻
Um, rude!
Maybe they learned their lessons from the day before. I’m sure letting the first couple disrupt the day was a bad idea and they simply decided not to do that again. Not everything is discrimination, just because they didn’t explain their decision to you.
I'm actually very surprised anyone was allowed to bring non-employees into the office, but maybe laws are different in your state? When I was working in an office, children were not allowed past the lobby area because of liability concerns. We have insurance to protect employees (and ourselves), not visitors (which include children and spouses of employees). One of my employees brought her daughter to work and to her desk and had her sit there for the day. It's a remote office, so I was not responsible for direct policing of that policy, but the office manager asked her to remove her child and she complained to me, so I had to get HR involved to explain why you shouldn't bring your kids to work even for just a friendly walk-through/hang out.
Yep! Kind of like certain neighborhoods who celebrate someone getting out of prison for the fifth time, but no celebration for the young person who graduates from high school or especially college.
I actually had to go to the hospital for a severe asthma attack and this one nurse kept coming in asking me to fill my pronouns, all while I hooked up to a ventilator unable to talk and could hardly breathe.
Good heavens! I’m sorry that happened to you.
I had a teacher ask me. You gotta shame them on the spot very rudely, shut them down. In my case I did.
Did you write "can't/breathe"?
@@347Jimmylmaoooo idk why this made me cackle 😂
That’s unusual for hospital forms. They do have the section for your sex, but that is medically necessary for them to know.
My doctor retired in 2022 in part because of this craziness. He told me he would have stayed on another few years if gender affirming care hadn't become such a trend. He also mentioned that he knows other doctors who are considering leaving the field or changing specialties to avoid this mess.
Its not gender affirming care, it's mutilation of children.
My last doctor also retired. He was furious because the state would pay for transgender surgery but not for bariatric surgery needed to save the life of a diabetic. A few months later, he was gone.
Uh oh 😢
I'm a therapy student and the woke doctrine has taken over. I could not allow it to push me out because conservative people need therapy too. Since deciding to muscle through I've found a group of students and professional organizations that bring nonwoke mental health care professionals together.
Keep it up! The more we can fill those positions with conservatives or non woke people, the better we can fight and take those positions back.
Careful.. This could transform you from therapy student to therapy patient
Name drop, I'd like to join.
Woke people are more mental insanity professionals.
What is the group called?
I worked for a small charity in the UK , we had to have diversity training . Two of the team were black, two white, one Jewish and an immigrant from Greece. We just took the piss and made racist jokes, the diversity officer looked horrified but it actually turned out to be a great team building exercise. 😂
I was blackballed from my white collar job by feminists. It was a stifling environment with endless tone policing. I was great at the job and loved it until the women took over. When I became a blue collar worker, the banter was great. No rules, nothing out of bounds and just men being men.
My dad and a younger black guy that was new at work talked shit all the time. They would say racist stuff to each other yelling across the shop... I would always shake my head at them but they would always say they were just playing around. He liked my dad so much that years after he left the company he came back to my father's house to show him his new truck(bigrig/18wheeler). He was going to start hauling freight across the country and was excited about his new purchase and wanted to show it off. I guess being that way to one another really did create a good bond.
edit
I was surprised to learn after his passing how many guys saw him as their "work dad". I was doubly surprised at the fact I felt happiness that others loved him but also I felt a little jealousy as well which was a weird feeling at the time and situation.
@@ssjwesYeah, I feel bad that thanks to female and woke micromanaging of male interactions, you likely won't get that kind of bonding with men at work. My black friend Kay, we did nothing but make racist jokes at every opportunity we could, you know, before woke. They got more ridiculous and more creative each time and we laughed so hard working super shitty jobs. I live in a very homogenous country now so can't do that now, but man, times were good. RIP Kay, mate.
That's the way guys have been doing it forever and ever, and women just don't understand. Among my best friends in high school were a handicapped Puerto Rican Jew, a Jamaican with a bendy finger and several Asians from various countries. We ALL relentlessly made fun of each other's biological traits, with them targeting my soulless ginger ass ad nauseum. It was authentic, somehow trained and spontaneous at the same time. I loved those guys, and I miss those times. We've lost the ability to laugh at ourselves, and that is much more detrimental than people imagine...
Bed Bath & Beyond were doing just fine until social justice activists took over. Then it failed within just a few months. This is what happens.
It's so shocking to see this woke ideology take over. I study psychology and it scares me to think of what the next generation of psychologists will look like. Same goes of course for other career options as well, but I think it is particularly dangerous in jobs with a certain influence such as teachers or therapists. Most of my fellow students are just way more 'problematic' than the actual clients. Many of them are also completely ok with refusing treatment to people with the wrong political opinions...
It's nothing new - just read or watch Arthur Miller's Crucible.
Most people, including those with a higher IQ, are dumb group animals and will join the mob out of cowardice (read up on the Stanley Milgram experiment).
Psychologists already know all about this, it's just like the majority of the population they are too cowardly to speak up.
It’s more prevalent in industries that don’t actually produce anything because they don’t have to produce anything. There’s no tangible product as a result which can be objectively assessed. Education, psychology, social work produce nothing tangible that can be objectively evaluated. It’s all subjective. It’s all mental masturbation.
They will be well trained in psycho it's all they will ever have known, Scary future that most people can't open their eyes and see.... I have a question for you, do you think all the brain drugs have changed people's brains, made them easier to brainwash and easier to gaslight? I think it plays a big part in this... control the brain, control everything ...
Yes, it's so dangerous in the traditional professions eg teaching, psychology, legal, medical, science & technology.
As we can see from the whole trans debacle in which every one of the professionals in these areas played a key role in creating the trans person and literally had whole societies in the West (and beyond!) in chaos, confusion and a chokehold to the extent of radically attempting to change society's established norms and subvert objective reality over a small minority group. It begs belief.
And refusing 'treatment' just because one doesn't hold the same political views is not just incredibly irrational, unprofessional and an abuse of power but pure evil. And it's just been allowed to run riot in society with no consequences to those that participate in such heinous actions.
They view the people with the wrong political opinions as in a cult and yet refuse to treat people they think are sick in the head. Psychiatry is riddled with ego and self righteousness but not so much on compassion, funnily enough.
I left an office job after they held an employees pronouns to a higher regard than a disorder I struggle with. I had lifelong troubles with memory and learning, and tried to talk to my bosses about it. They acted like they couldn't care less, and I could "train myself out of it" but had regular meetings about respecting peoples pronouns. I didnt choose my disorder, but people choose their lifestyles.
see, this is what those stupid politics of diversity say they are aimed at, and yet, the people that are supposed to be "helped" get the bad end stick of the deal
Say "I don't feel heard, your ableism is silencing me"
Most people tend to be like sheep and will accept just about anything if it gains enough popularity.
Sadly, the boring, real stuff doesn't get the same sort attention that the weirder stuff does to draw the attention of those people who NEED to be a part of the flock.
They acted like they could care less. That means they cared a bit at least.
@JezaLoki *couldn't* care less rather; I'm glad the point of my message reached you.
I was a camp counselor at a summer camp in California that was extremely woke. We had to do a diversity & inclusion training and one of the instructors was teaching us about the zip line ropes course and was talking about how the equipment has been historically “racist.” I asked her what she meant and she said that because black people are naturally bigger it was not inclusive. There is this problem with woke fat white women using black women as examples of “naturally fat” people which is actually racist and they don’t realize it.
so according to her only black people live in US? Has she even looked how many black women look who live in Africa? Tiny, tiny and skinny.
@@mrsmerily Being fat is part of the beauty standard in some areas of Africa so brides to be instead of going on a diet will drink a lot of milk to fatten up. The beauty standard also sees a higher amount of diabetes, but the doctors in those areas are saying it's ok, because it's culture and it's seen as beautiful. They're enabling diabetics!
@@silververnallbells191 The whole reason that beauty standard existed was because being fat was a sign of being wealthy and having access to resources.
what's she jizzing about? Black people are naturally smaller than white people. Also Asians. It's because size of the animal relates to the weather and the colder the weather == the bigger the animal. Although with modern humans, for some odd reason the tallest / biggest men are in the Balkans (185+ cm is the average), if you remove this you're left with Nordic countries as source of biggest both men and women. And I am talking about general averages, not the special selections like the NBA.
@@codinghusky5196 No actually black people are naturally bigger than white people but they are not fat
Misha, I really appreciate you showing up as YOU. I see you wear makeup and do pretty hairstyles from time to time, but majority of the time, you show up natural. I cannot tell you how helpful that is, not just for me, but no doubt plenty of other women. It is giving me more confidence to allow myself to show up as myself. I am used to being around women who wear makeup every day, and I feel weird when I don’t wear it… I’ve been pushing myself out of that. I have some way to go, but organically beautiful souls like yours and lighting the way. You are beautiful, truly, inside and out, without even trying. You glow because you are healthy. Also, I had watched several videos of you and didn’t know for a fact you were a child of God, but I heard you mention that in one of your videos the other day. It absolutely shows that you are a Child of God. Before I heard you say it, I felt in my spirit that you were one of His. Thank you for your time, Misha. It’s refreshing hearing your views, I get tired of my own echo chamber in my head.
I'm so glad I was able to take early retirement last year. My last employer was starting to push 'unconscious bias', 'Pronouns on e-mails', and other woke stuff and when my team asked me for an opinion on it I would always give my honest take. These days, with all the cancel culture types, I would not last a day.
The pronouns thing is getting so weird to me. Like, how does how you refer to me in the third person even matter? I assume I’m not around if you’re talking about me, so what does it matter? If someone decided they were going to use he/him pronouns when talking about me, I would be incredibly unbothered about the whole thing.
@LexTime89 it is an attempt to control language. Control language and it is easier to warp and control people.
@@LexTime89idk I’m just correcting them…helping them out
It reminds of a cat video where someone asked something and used "it", which we use to objects and animals, and then a lot of people appeared saying that he was being offensive and that he should have used "them" since ge didn't knew the cat's gender. Like, push whatever you want but can we stop using human standards on animals? 🤦♀️
I used to work at a law firm and they openly did not care about the employees. But as a result, no woke stuff was pushed on us. So it’s pros and cons.
I'm so against all this woke crap. My job is just so happy that I'm gay, it's like they want me to skip around the office and talk about how much I like men. This is so creepy to me. My sexual orientation has nothing to do with the work I came there to do.
But I have to exploit it, because I'm not a leftist and everyone knows it. In one of my I&D brainwashing sessions, I accidentally said how I feel, so I then had to come out as a long term HIV survivor so my additional oppression points could keep me in the game. This stuff is so creepy you guys, and I don't think it's going to get better. We may need to run to Mexico or get packed on a train car soon.
Easier said than done, but sounds like you need a new job.
It's weird, isn't it? Because if I pranced around the office as a straight man, shouting about where I'd like to shove my knob, I'd be out of a job and into a police car before sunset. But you, you have to celebrate pride year round and inform people that you're happy you like a bit of knobaction. It is the pornification of "identity" traits. Preferring a sausage factory is probably the least interesting thing about you and yet they expect you to rub it in their faces all day long, pun intended. Bizarre.
Or you could try speaking your mind, it will mean more coming from one of the supposed victims.
Omg … unreal. Thanks for being sane.
Or you can stand your ground against the bullies.
Misha i joined a new school this year, and somehow it’s even more liberal than my old school😭😭 the headteacher literally had a whole assembly for black history month (in the UK) about how he’s a "privileged middle class white man" who needs to "teach his kids not to be racist", they have black history month posters and flags and yesterday they blasted afrobeats on the speakers during breaktime and no one said a thing, everyone in this school is so “progressive” i feel crazy tbh😭
You're not crazy. They are. They're living in a delusion.
Racism is nothing like what they think it is.
Actual racism is treating others poorly/as lesser than because of their race (especially if they are a minority in the overall population).
Stay strong. You're not crazy or going crazy.
My thoughts and prayers are with you!
you're the only sane person in that school most likely, though MAYBE some of the children are immune against the propaganda.
The headteacher is an idiot who clearly doesn't understand History and has decided to import the narrative from the USA.
It's actually offensive to treat "black history" in this way to black British ppl. They rather inconveniently don't agree that they're all oppressed. If they came to the UK in the last twenty years they probably come from privileged families in Africa that value education and therefore have good jobs in a society that traditionally values merit.
Oh god I'm from the UK and it scared me that the future of the UK will be like America now with the politics and the woke people. This makes me scared for the future
I'm a cashier. I was called racist for
1. Not cutting meat the thickness the person wanted even though he walked away befire I could ask him.
2. Making a woman with 30 items get out of the 10 items or less aisle.
3. Geting in between a male customer and my best friend who is a girl.
4. Saying "Bruh," "homie," and "dawg" among other things. I'm from the deep South.
5. My register not working.
6. Saying that I like Candace Owens and Brett Cooper.
7. Not having a particular item.
8. Getting my brown skinned godchild a banana because he asked for one. The person calling me racist wasn't from my town.

That’s crazy being called racist when you followed Candice Owens a BLACK girl
I was asked about my pronouns just once (the Netherlands hasn’t gone bonkers yet), and I told them I was ‘egosexual’ and my pronouns are I/me/my. Good luck referring to me in a conversation. Would they have objected to my sexuality, I would have called them bigoted and transphobic. Unleash the craziness on the crazy!
I've got to use this haha
Last month I was interviewed in a job and one of the questions was to me define what "woman" means. I didn't got to this question, but I saw it on the paper.
They stopped the interview when I mentioned that I (an obese woman) go to the gym because I need to lose weight (this made the interviewer's eye twitch) to make a surgery in my breasts. She asked me "oh, are you transitioning?" and I answered "no, I just have a severe back pain, I plan in reducing them, not taking them off completely" (my breasts are indeed huge because of hormonal problems).
She said that "unfortunately we can't hire a non-diverse person" and I was glad that I didn't mentioned that I'm neurodivergent. I just asked "So tell me: did you even read my resume or did you just got my phone number?" "Just the phone number." "Thanks." and I left.
These questions sound HIGHLY illegal!
You told them a lot of personal stuff in that interview.
@@Akihito007 They are fairly common depending on the job, it was a physically demanding job, so they kinda have to know if you are physically active. But the transition question I think she just asked out of curiosity.
@@Kinikia95 Pretty normal to inform your physical conditions in a physically demanding job.
@randomthoughts6680 Fair point! I probably wouldn't tell a potential employer that I was hoping to take time off for a surgery if I weren't sure yet, but honesty is good. My tmi: I've had that surgery. Painful recovery but worth it.
I had en entire week for women in architecture... Technically true, the lecturers were women and only talked about themselves and the books they wrote. Specially how we should buy their books. Students were confused and we only stared at each other. That was the entire week....
I learned more about women in architecture with my history teacher, he was a man...
An ex friend of mine said when he was in school, the local college (UK) had some of the teachers who taught engineering come in to give a talk. Apparently they were pushing quite hard and promoting the course mainly towards girls, as they were desperate to get more girls to apply. At the end they asked who would think about applying for the course, I’m not sure of the exact amount but say out of 200 people, only 1 girl raised her hand and the rest were boys.
@@JamesAlex88The only way they could ever get women in these places is by paying several times what the men get. Women do not want these jobs.
@@loganblackwood2922 I forget which Uni and I’m not sure if they still offer it but any ways, several years ago I heard about a university here in England that offered a scholarship but only to women, they wanted to increase the numbers of women again like the school of my ex-friend, to do the engineering degree. The funny thing is the vast majority of women who go into the industry, leave after about 5 years. In other words, it was kind of pointless offering a scholarship to a demographic of people who end up leaving the industry not long after going into it.
@@JamesAlex88 When they tried this in Australia, they included pick up a scholarship (you would just get it paid for) and it was all female classes for engineering, still no women turned up.

I used to think it a bit of a curse when I was younger, but now I’m thinking it’s one of the things that saved me from being drawn into the woke cult.
I was laid off at age 60 during Covid and have worked at various contract jobs since, finally deciding I am happiest working remotely. My last 2 retail jobs during this time included diversity training, especially as one is a major national discount retailer. I was shocked in 2018 by my then healthcare employer introducing the use of pronouns for patient registration, and have watched diversity practices accelerate markedly since. Having grown up in the flower child 1960s (the make love, not war era) I have a hard time wrapping my head around supposedly "inclusive" workplace standards that effectively repress expression of people's cultural, religious, cis, or nonbinary selves alongside woke, nonreligious, atheist, trans, or binary ones. This is neither equity nor equality. This is The Emperor's New Clothes - we have to pretend this is normal and okay, when I think in reality as a society we are all being groomed to be a homogeneous submissive public for the benefit of corporate entities who profit. This is not diversity! There used to be a common saying for a reason - never discuss sex, politics, or religion. They should remain private decisions and have no place in the workplace IMHO. If you care to express these opinions on social media, you should have the Constitutional right of free speech to do so as long as you are not supporting criminal or illegal acts.
They want us to end in gray jumpsuits as unthinking masses

I love biology, anatomy and especially epidemiology.
So one day when I'm watching chubbyemu and he said something to the effect of: "those assigned female at birth" or "presenting as female", I knew the jig was up.
You can't pride yourself on medical knowledge while deliberately ignoring anatomical and biological reality.
Same with SciShow and their inability to say *women* have periods.
As far as I know the Institute of Human Anatomy is still based and their videos very informative.
And even Neil deGrasse Tyson ( "astrophysicist, author, and science communicator" according to Wiki) is woke. 🙄 smh.

Here’s my woke work story:
So I work for a company that supplies plants to Walmarts in the tri state area. My boss and I noticed at one particular location in NJ a lot of products were being taken out without being purchased. We do inventory every two weeks or so to check this. We figured it was because some products are too big for the carts so customers would bring one plant in, scan it multiple times, and then pull their car up, and then load the purchased plants in the car. We figured people were just taking plants they didn’t pre pay for inside and were just loading in extra plants they didn’t pay for in their cars. So my boss implanted a new policy: we have to ask to see receipts first before we let people just take products and load them in their cars to make sure they actually purchased the plants. It makes sense right?
So one day I’m working outside and there was a man who pulled up his car after walking out of the store with only two plants. He started loading more plants in his car and I mean a lot of plants and our more expensive ones. I then get his attention, stop him and say “sir, I need to see a receipt first before you can load those plants.”
And then this man says in the most angry and aggressive manner “why?! Because I’m black I’m automatically stealing , you racist bitch!”
This man looked like he wanted to beat me up. His fists are clenched and everything. Keep in mind I’m a five foot skinny biracial (Asian/white) girl with spaghetti limbs and little no upper body strength and this is a muscular five foot eight dude who I didn’t take the time to care that he’s black until he pointed it out.
I get scared and I’m trying to stay calm so I say “it’s policy for my company to ask for receipts first, I don’t think you’re stealing but it’s policy.”
And then he gets even more mad and steps forward all threatening going “I bet you don’t do this for all the white folks. Asians at it again always pandering to the white man like it’s going to get them somewhere. Kissing their asses. Fuck you!”
So he goes to load his plants and I’m so upset at this point so I’m just saying “sir please i do this for all customers it’s policy.” And the guy just shoves me to the ground. And everyone is staring like he’s causing a scene.
Eventually my saint of a boss overhears and sees me on the ground trying not to cry because this man looks like he’s going to beat me up and he’s looking all threatening at me. He walks up all badass and goes “problem here?” And I took so much satisfaction in seeing this bully’s face and confidence drain when he sees my boss: a big tattooed, burly, muscular, long bearded, seven foot tall, gorilla man.
My boss just helps me up, taps my shoulder and says “I’ll handle this honey you go back to work.” And my boss grabs the guy like literally grabs him by the shirt and drags him over to the side. And then the dude who threatened me apologizes (insincere as it seemed) and showed me the receipt. I asked my boss how he got this guy to cut it out and apologize of all things. My boss all badass says “I simply told him that real men don’t threaten little ladies like yourself who are half their size. Only whiny, insecure, man babies with tiny dicks do that.” God my boss is such a badass and gentleman.
I swear these woke ideals of CRT and systematic racism and making it seem like everything is racist is making people so entitled that they act this way whether it’s being publicly threatening and arrogant and self righteous or downright criminal behavior. And then the woke lefties allow it and excuse it.
Nice story, I liked it, in case there are no real men around to protect you again from the cowards that seem to be everywhere nowadays, get a gun and train with it. They are great equalizers.

Girl I too have a (sort of) similar story to yours when I worked at a large box store for like three months in a city I no longer live in. These two natives (I'm canadian) used threatening words and excused me of excusing them of stealing things when i was told to go and check on them and see how they were doing/if they needed help with anything.
Now I'm not a small woman (5'5 white and an average weight) however I am extremely sensitive and probably too much of a people pleaser. I went home and cried that day as I had mostly positive experiences with Indigenous people up until that point in my life. I quit not long after that. I moved back to my hometown and now work a much better job that I've been at for almost a year now!
I worked for Walmart. We were told in training we cannot, whatsoever, ask a black person for their receipt. It's ridiculous. We also had to wear red on Tuesdays to support women in the workplace. I got sent home for not wearing red. Oh and then I also got in trouble for not wearing a pronoun pin. Like if you can't tell I am a woman, we have a nice selection of glasses for you to choose from.

This guy I worked with asked why we didn't have 73 bathrooms when there are 73 genders. Keep in mind this was a Dollar General.
Not wanting to get into some insane political debate I just said, "I'm not cleaning 73 bathrooms every night."
He shut up really quick.
Are any of those 73 genders doing a number 3 we are unaware of. 😂😂😂. Love your response.
Why do I have a feeling that he asked this jokingly? Like making fun of that 73 genders whatever that was in 2016.
Isn't that the same number of virgins you get if you suicide bomb for Allah?
Also, if gender isn’t related to sex then why do they need bathrooms for different genders? I thought it wasn’t related? Why does getting medical intervention to try to make your sex match your “gender identity” get labeled as “gender-affirming care” if they aren’t the same?

For years, I volunteered and did administrative/strategic work for a local live-action role-playing group. I criticized one of the shifts that I saw happening, that those seen as "more able" needed to be okay with other players' behavior attributed to their so-called neurodivergence. They had a meltdown? I needed to "hold space". A bunch of people wanted to play easily triggered PTSD characters whose actions targeted my character? I needed to watch my privilege. The moment my character in this fantasy world gained sufficient power, all of a sudden, I (as a player) was targeted with all sorts of allegations. The wild thing was that the organizers couldn't give me specifics. And when I pointed out the timing (my character gaining a prominent role days before the deluge of accusations), I was told that the investigations had been behind the scenes for some time. Right... Interesting that they became public just in time to knock me down.
It's so wild that psychologists are now expected to "affirm". One of the most freeing and healing things I've experienced in therapy was my therapist NOT affirming my unhealthy belief about myself, but accepting it as something I'm experiencing, not engaging with it to either argue or affirm, but letting me know she understood what I was telling her and accepted me with it. Guess what - that was what gave me strength to actually confront that belief and work through it. I'm so sad and, frankly, furious that confused, suffering people are offered unprofessional, anti-therapeutic ideological BS instead of real help.
Parents need to be on top of the school stuff. A bunch of the parents in my school district got together and there is currently a lawsuit. They released the curriculum last year, and while some topics are normal (hygiene, healthy relationships ect.) But they sprinkled the leftist trans ideology in there. Some grades (especially Pre-K and Kindergarten) had an outright inappropriate and outrageous curriculum that seemed to be focused on sexualizing and confusing the kids. It was appalling, needless to say I no longer give the school any leeway or benefit of the doubt. The only reason my son isn't homeschooled is because on top of his ap classes, extra curriculars, and friends we also have a very good relationship with open honest communication. So I'm not concerned about one of these looney tune adults brainwashing him. Given all this happening last year. When I opted him out I explained why in an age appropriate way, and I told him if he had any questions about what he's hearing from his classmates to come to his dad and I.
Also in our state per the law (I just double checked this the other day) the school is supposed to be transparent about the class and given an opt out option.
Well, obviously I opted my son out last year. This year he started middle school. As I was reviewing his classes on the app, I noticed all of them had detailed notes about the material currently being taught, except one. The name of the class was adolescent studies. So I reached out to the teacher and asked for a syllabus. She sent me, I guess you could call it a flyer, because it was extremely vague. But the last thing listed was human growth and development. Which is what they called the class last year. So I then asked if she was following the curriculum that was sent out last year. She said YES. I was livid but I thanked her and immediately scheduled a meeting with the principal. I was even more livid, when I went back to the link I had saved to view the curriculum so I could be better prepared for the meeting and it had been completely erased from the district site.
To summarize:
Instead of doing what they are legally obligated to do, being transparent with the parents and being given the option to opt their children out. They changed the name of the class and essentially made it mandatory, as every kid is enrolled in it automatically. While also erasing it's existence from the district site. These schools run on tax payers money. These school officials are paid by us. Yet, they are intentionally deceptive in an attempt to indoctrinate our children. To say I was livid is actually an understatement. I had a very tense and frank conversation with the principal, my son now has a study hall that hour. Best believe this is being added to the lawsuit. After the meeting I let all of the other parents know, so now kids are dropping that class left and right.
I am especially despised by the Wokies in our district (they are a very loud, unhinged and violent minority) because last year everyone seemed afraid to speak up about it. Until I decided to print and highlight the overtly sexual, trans propaganda, and the nonsense stuff from the ideology not based in reality or fact. That started the conversation, and when parents started to realize that they weren't going crazy and they weren't standing alone everyone started speaking out. This year with me giving everyone a heads up about the class, I essentially opened the can of worms again. So yeah I'm openly hated. I've been threatened, berated, and even cry/screamed at. But I don't care, not even a little. They get especially frustrated. Not only because I don't care, so therefore I am always calm and just debunking their nonsense, but they also can't get my fired and I have no social media. So all they can do is whine. Protecting my kid is first priority, and I could careless about the opinions of others when it comes to that. Even if I was in jeopardy of losing my job, it wouldn't change anything, I will never sacrifice my child for anything. Period. Stop being afraid and speak up. These people are the minority. They're just loud and violent which is why most institutions like individuals stay silent and fall in line. They can't bully and silence everyone.
Great comment, and great job protecting the kids. It is hard to believe that the federal and local governments would attack our kid's mental and emotional well-being like this, but it is true. This is happening across our country in public schools and some private, with the support of our federal government through multiple DEI executive orders, and the policies from the corrupt NEA. The democrats truly have gone insane.
Thanks for sharing! Absolutely awesome to hear. Keep on the good fight!
Excellent, the fight is on! Thank you for your courage
I go to an arts highschool in New Haven, Connecticut and as you can imagine the whole community is VERY woke. I myself am pretty far left, yet my classmates see me as some kind of right wing extremist because of my opinions. I learned this the hard way after losing friends because i said minors shouldn’t be able to consent to mastectomies. It’s a nightmare.
I am an old lady but I get it. Always considered myself a liberal and my ideas haven't changed. But the goalposts have changed. Keep to your convictions but don't argue unnecessarily, because your words will be wasted on them. HS Seems like a huge deal now but soon it won't be. The right friend group will come to you organically; just give it time.
Don't worry, in a year or two, they won't be woke enough either.
Just become right wing. It’s better over here.
"Friends" no great loss then, fuck em! There was a time when these freaks were just accepted as people with mental issues but now they have successfully made themselves universally hated by normal heterosexuals. Well done, you have now achieved the complete opposite of what you set out to do. Our society is in terminal decline with no way back.
I’m with you. There are more of us than media represents
So young and so honest and rational. You are a true rare specimen among the people from the US!
Really love videos like these where you let the community tell you their woke experiences. Really it is great and keep the hard work up. Truly a blessing in this crazy world!
I agree with your assessment of psychology. I majored in psychology for my undergrad and then went for a masters in social work. While working on my masters, I served an internship at a law firm and realized the clients are very much the same. So now I’m going through law school since I honestly cannot see myself affirming ridiculous ideologies as a social worker or psychologist
I genuinely hope you don't. We need level headed rational people in those roles. ❤
(don't affirm crazy beliefs, but hear people out and try to help is what I meant by that.) ❤
I've wanted to be a therapist since I was a little kid. I'm about to start college and had to give up on that dream because I refuse to do the same thing. I also can't imagine what the curriculum looks like these days with gender identity taking over. Good luck pursuing your law degree!

New subscriber here! I used to work for Starbucks for almost two years, I left in November 2022. Someone knew my political beliefs and legit tried to get me fired by calling transphobic and racist.
My current job is OBVIOUSLY left owned, small local business. It’s night and day from my last job. Current job isn’t using their platform for politics and they never shove it down anyone’s throats and I appreciate it. It’s great to see that small percentage of the left behave normally. They’re obviously allowed to have differences in beliefs, politics, etc. after all it’s supposed to be a free country!
The summary of this comment is I’m most definitely right leaning, but working in a left owned business that respects my personal beliefs if they know what they are or not!
The company even follows me on socials and my platforms are public and they can so easily look thru my following list and see the conservative profiles on there. It’s such a shame to see others struggle with this political favoritism even when you keep to yourself about it.
It’s actually quite rude and disrespectful in most work places to even talk politics because your reputation and platform shouldn’t be based on politics in the work force (except for gov. Positions n stuff like that obviously) but simple food service and retail jobs shouldn’t discriminate any person based on any political beliefs it’s completely unethical.
Quite a long comment for my first hour being subscribed to you but I’m just so passionate about this stuff. Thanks for sharing your content I love it :)
of course that happened at starbucks lol
Tha ls for sharing!
Yeah i do agree that some on the left aren't insane because I have an aunt that is Democratic but isn't requesting from my family for their pronouns for being crazy
I worked for Starbucks for years. I’m a post op fully passable transsexual. Years of therapy, surgeries, and hormones. If you saw me you’d assume I was just a normal female, but because it was such an accepting environment and I liked to educate people on my condition, I was open about being TS. I was the only one for years. Never had any issues. Flash forward to the pandemic and suddenly every gay man there is calling himself trans, we got a bunch of they/thems, we even got a heterosexual married father who claimed trans! Mind you most of these people it’s just clothing. I had a man with a beard and a pronoun pin report ME for being transphobic! All I did was ask a polite question! I said “forgive me for not understanding I’m just trying to learn, but do you no longer need to medically transition to be trans?” And I got written up for Questioning someone’s gender, because the bearded man in a dress got offended! That job has now started to tell workers there is a list of words that cannot be said! White paper, hey guys, etc!! Woke insanity!!! How can a transsexual be transphobic!?
Its always #believewomen with these people until actual women have concerns about their personal safety (and rights as a parent, etc) due to things we women literally predicted would happen when you allow this bs.
If it makes you feel any better they have erased actual transsexuals also. TransGENDER and non binary are now running the show, and some are even accusing actual transsexuals of being bigots!

It's a huge overreach. This was on the same day we were forced to watch a documentary at work with leftist political themes.

It is not helpful or healthy to ANYONE.

You dodged a bullet. I have a similar story.
I said r/trans is an echo chamber, just like all the other subreddits and got permanently banned from the entire site
I got permanently banned for criticizing the fact that a mod said that anyone who thinks J K Rowling is not extremely transphobic should be permanently banned. I didn't even express my opinion that she's not transphobic, I simply said that such censorship was a bad idea and we should be able to debate.
The existence of a number of rival trans and detrans subreddits that make the same point you made proves your point beyond doubt. They couldn't argue with you so they ban.

The way I was brought up was “at work, at formal settings, and with strangers, we don’t talk about sex, politics, religion”.
So I shut up in those circumstances and avoid needless confrontations. We cannot change adults, especially adult idiots.
Moreover, Misha, if behind this push there is the issue of the ESG score, do you think that they will stop because we regular guys “voice our disagreement”? My answer is no.
As an adult I was taught: “adapt and survive”. My adaptation tactics are as follows:
Social media as a whole is no longer the place to be, I am cutting social media presence and usage, and migrating away from mainstream platforms.
I will speak loudly with my vote
I will defend my kids and my family by any means possible.

Honestly this might be my biggest issue with the gender ideology. Actual feminists fought for the deconstruction of gender roles basically so this kind of thing wouldnt happen, and now kids are told if they dont fit into that same exact box that was deconstructed decades ago, they are a girl. Its bs. You are not any less of a man if you are more feminine or like to play with dolls or something and vice versa for girls. For an ideology that pushes freedom and diversity, they really seem to want to fit into a lot of boxes and labels

Hearing and reading about testimonials like this make me feel very fortunate that most of my co-workers are not from the US and don't subscribe to any of this insanity because it's not part of their culture. They are far easier to talk to (in English even if it's not their native language) and are way more down to earth than these neurotic woke people I've come across online or in person.
For instance, when I was volunteering to start a new con where I live (I was one of the original co-founders), everything went smoothly until some very woke people joined our staff. The worst one was a self-described Antifa, non-binary, indigenous, queer activist who was able to get away with cursing and being disrespectful against anyone who challenged her far-left views because the person in charge of HR (also her personal friend and political ally) defended her. She often said she only wanted to hear from voices of people of color. She looked just like a butch white woman married to another white man. Last time I heard, she quit the con because she wanted the con to get more politically involved and the con (surprisingly) did not give into her demands.
Antifa brownshirts are the scum of the Earth. I've seen evidence that their roots are connected to the Sturmabteilung in thirties and forties Germany.
Antifa Gives America a Week of Kristalnacht
"The name Antifa is a kind of in joke played of people with little or no knowledge of history. It is supposed to mean Anti Fascist, but that also is a private joke. Fascism is an economic system based on Socialism and was adopted by 30 to 40 countries in the 1920's and 1930's"

If someone says they support you and cannot follow you because of stuff like this they're not supporting you they're supporting the other side by allowing the other side to control their actions
May I just say: While I am a bit more progressive and left-ish-leaning, I’m definitely not far left. I do feel that I’m more of a “Somewhere in the middle” type. I don’t SOLELY follow left or right values - nor do I WHOLLY disagree with left or right values. I love your content! I’m a new and recent subscriber. Please keep this kind of stuff up; everyone is so freaking polarized, and it feels nice to have someone who seems level-headed about everything. I have far left/right friends, and anyone in-between. I really don’t care what people’s political views are, so long as we’re all kind to one another.
my last boss was super woke and would regularly stalk her employees online and judge their online presence as part of work it was f'd up. Eventually she pretended I didn't do a lock check, by throwing away my progress paper on the lock check and claiming she checked the cameras and I didn't do it. I told her she needs to get her eyes checked and I wanted HR to go over the footage... they didn't and I left the company.
If I worked in a toxic workplace like these story's I'd troll them by identifying as a different animal everyday, no talking just animal noises!

A lot of this. I bet.

Keep doing what your doing Misha. We need more youtubers like you.
Very interesting and nuanced opinions here. Great content.
I started therapy around 13 years old. in my experience the younger millennial aged therapists are trained to challenge beliefs but not to change behavior.
Back in 2019 was when I first realized things were going seriously wrong. I had just started working in higher education, and a male with green hair and high heels followed me into the restroom. Obviously I was horrified. Honestly, how can they think it's okay to invade women's privacy in the restroom? Anyway, I go to my supervisor, a man in his 70's, who is also horrified, but comes back to me after speaking with HR. Of course we're informed that this is all within his rights. Another supervisor tells me he was 'testing the waters.' I hope my shock and horror was enough to keep him out of women's restrooms in the future. The social work department where I worked as a staff member was completely racist against white people. I ended up changing departments, but it doesn't matter. Academia is like a cancer infecting everyone in it's path. Even those who are 'right-leaning' are all completely brainwashed to the ideology, and of course the pharma nonsense. I wouldn't believe this was really happening if I wasn't living it.
Thank you Misha for giving us a place to vent with like minded individuals.
The person who described the forced diversity training as telling you to invite the gay coworker is pretty accurate. I would never hang out with coworkers outside of work, but if I did it certainly wouldn't be with someone who made me uncomfortable. Males masquerading as females make me highly uncomfortable. It's so messed up.
There are also organize black retreats. I personally don't see anything wrong with wanting to be around people you resonate with, but how they advertise it is just racist.
That’s shocking! It’s getting so much worse, and predators can easily just claim to be trans.
In my mom's job they can't send chrismtas wishes, and instead only new year one. A few years ago one of the coworkers send to everyone wishes related to the firm's strategy and he used three kings in them. My mom really liked this wishes, so when she bumped into this man she thanked him for them. And this man was shocked and asked her if she's serious? My mom was confused why he would think like she didn't mean it and it turned up to be like that because he got scowled by the others how they feelings got hurt because three kings are from christian believes, yadda yadda. My mom was speechless
3 kings does roll off the tongue a little easier than an unknown number of wise men with three gifts.
I've been on the left side of political things my entire life but have noticed if I am seen reading the wrong books, or daring to admit that the author makes SOME good points, then the screaming on the part of a few of my leftist friends starts. Most recently this occurred when I discussed TRANS by Helen Joyce online.
I've rarely had any similar experiences with my Conservative friends.
It's becoming much more common for job applications to ask what your sexuality is under the guise of the question simply being for statistics. I don't even like the race question on most applications but sexuality? I don't understand how that's even legal. What the hell does that have anything to do with the job? I've even seen versions of the question that don't offer a 'decline to answer' option. Ironically, even my hardcore leftist friend does not agree with that question being allowed on job applications.
Do they have an "other" option? Do that. Confuse the hell out of them. Write something bizarre in the box.
This video is the perfect example of why I stopped using social media. It's such a toxic environment and has made me so much happier.
I've worked in HR for 5 years and have only had to say something to employees 2x about inappropriate workplace behavior- a mass email telling people not to hook up at office parties and a talk with one guy who kept going on long rants about Mexicans. Most of my time is spent working to protect employees from the upper management trying to screw them, and thats how it should be. But its completely up the the HR rep how they handle it
I work in the public sector. When I onboarded with the division, we naturally had all sorts of trainings. Being in an IT-type position, I was expecting security and workflow training.
Instead, almost all of the onboarding was heavily coated to conform employees to a particular work culture. There were several meetings to recruit employees into the labor union. Meetings to engage with employees working in very different areas whom I never heard from again. There was also a mandatory meeting with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion led by a person who graduated less than 3 years ago. They spoke about their experience, why they matter, and why we should respect their job. The young girl also laid out the system in place to punish people who disrespect that agenda.
Needless to say, these people and these agendas are deeply rooted in public sector culture. Tax dollars are specifically being used to fund these positions without any confirmation from voters. It should terrify us how little autonomy we as citizens have over our own government.

Comment on the Psychologist role:
I spent 10 years on disability for severe mental disorder(s) and still see my psychologist regularly. The role of a psychologist (counselor, psychiatrist, whatever) is definitely not to affirm anything and make you feel better about yourself. Whatever you're working on, it is their role to challenge you, educate you and give you the tools to progress in your struggle. I went from someone who the thought of stepping on the front porch for the newspaper would cause panic attacks to someone who has 2 college degrees and has returned to work. It took years, and it wouldn't have happened if the one charged with helping me get better just affirmed that it was ok to just be the way I was.
That's the why I fear the new generation of professionals because if we consider the current trendy of having a random mental issue to be quirky, or the internet/tiktok doctors, then what would happen in the future? They would be "look at generic symptoms and say 'you have ADH'"? 😰
Congrats on being able to improve your life despite the extra challenges. That's huge. Panic attacks are a devastating thing to deal with.
I'm a therapist and this is exactly right. It's not therapy. It's insane
Same here. I agree that we are experiencing delusion on a massive scale.
This is why my socials are private and don't show my face or have coworkers on there. I wish we could go back to the days when we could keep who we voted for to ourselves in the workplace.
My husband is working remotely - one of the biggest advantages is that he isn't surrounded by woke morons every single day.
What company? i am looking for a job, i bet people see my application marked as white male and just delete it.
Not gonna lie, I'm happy to be working in tech for this exact reason, it's a very male dominated field and most people there are your average straight nerdy dudes who couldn't give two shits about these things. I'm not even right leaning, I just like to follow people with different opinions so I can witness all sides of the discussions and form my own opinions based on that instead of staying in an echo chamber of either side.
ps. omg I need whatever lipstick you are using, that shade is perfect
As long as you’re with the right company in tech. Every now and then you find a company that’s the total opposite. 😂
@@photoniccannon2117 Yeah of course there are companies like that too, but the risk is at least lower than let's say, if you work with arts 😂
@@johnnygaster2224 for sure 😂

Why should they give 2shits, they are there to work not cater to your soft emotions. It's YOU, YOU deal with you.
Fully passable transsexual here. MTF. Came out before this transgender craze. Got all my surgeries and look and sound female. Work for a woke corporation. I was the only TS, and because I like to educate people (or used to) I am open about it. (Was) The last few years we’ve gotten an influx of gay men in make up, they/thems, even a heterosexual crossdressing man. Bizarre. The gay dude with a beard and make up recently changed HIS pronouns to SHE. He presents fully male has a man body and voice and just has lipgloss on and a beard. I asked him “do you no longer need to transition to be trans?, I’m trying to learn how this all works now” and he reported me to HR for questioning someone’s gender. I am in an appeal now trying to fight this. People like him are forcing actual transsexuals into deep stealth, I no longer tell anyone I’m TS, no longer try to educate people on my medical condition, and just stay private. I am looking for a new position. Myself and my conservative bf are just a normal couple from the outside, he hunts, we love America etc, these woke idiots claim I’m a transphobe and my bf is a patriarchal cis oppresser! So now men who toss on a pronoun pin can call actual transsexuals who have gone through years of therapy and surgery and WORKED to earn being called SHE a bigot!? These people have ruined what trans even means. It’s lost any medical or clinical criteria and is now a catch all club for anyone who has no identity! Complete erasure of TS. 🤦🏻♀️
A similar phenomenon is happening to autism too, everyone thinks they're autistic now.
@eenbankberoven speaking of autism, as an autistic myself (updated diagnosis since July 2023 from a licensed doctor), that pisses me off. Adding more fuel to the fire, I don't know what's more shocking. A, people intentionally think we our disability "disease" as an excuse, yet they demand everyone to respect anyone's sex change. B, they say they know autism because they have worked with autistics, have a son/daughter with autism, and only know it because of that one person & not realizing that every single autistic is different, despite being an expert, or C. Lying about being autistic just to get benefits like SSI/SSDI.
Back to the OG comment, yo Tula! Thank you for being the first transgender with common sense and the education to understand that Gay and Transgender are NOT the same 👏👏👏. I never thought I would ever see or meet a transgender saying this wise words regarding facts.
Special Message To ALL Feminazis & anyone LGBTQIALMOP:
FIRST & FOREMOST, A sexual preference is NOT the same as a change.
SECOND, respect is EARNED. Your sex change or your homosexuality does NOT automatically grant you respect. That goes the same for anyone straight as well and all 6 races, both sexes, all nationalities, foreign or domestic, and anyone disabled or not.
THIRD, if you get triggered of my presence or anyone's presence without a reason, you are a chicken shit. As long as I am not doing anything illegal, STFU & MYOB. Grow up.
FOURTH & FINALLY: I will not use or respect your pronouns. I will call you by your name that you want to be called & no not your stripper name or any name deemed inappropriate or illegal. No exceptions. No special treatment. No excuses. If you were Burt and now you are Beth, I will call you Beth.
"Why should I be forced to respect your sex change when you people refuse to understand my disability."
a (former) friend of mine is currently on a woke bender, the last 2 years he's been fired from 4 jobs, because he tried to get other people fired over jokes or slip of the tongues. Problem is, this guy really is a narcisist (not the social media version, a real one) and if he doesn't get his way, he'll keep bothering people untill they bend to his will. Unfortunately, that doesn't work with employers. Last week he even managed to get voted out of his council position at our pub/association because he kept claiming racism etc etc.
For the last few years my workplace has had diversity training which pretty much told me I am racist for being born white through videos and reading materials (even though I try to treat people how they treat me). Then we had to take a 'test' at the end which was obviously to weed out any 'racist employees' and were encouraged (read forced as it wouldn't let you past the page otherwise) to complete a review of what we thought of the course.
Racism against white people is still racism.
that is super racist.
I’m about to enter the workforce, and I didn’t even think about people watching who I follow and tweeting to get me fired. I have no hope
Just be sure to avoid companies that prioritize leftism over being a business.
If you work for a larger company I don't think it would be an issue. They don't want to get sued. But they definitely could look you up before and not hire you. Maybe use a different email and not your real name for your socials.
It doesn’t take too long to work through renaming and hiding accounts, a couple days at most. The harder part is if your name comes up in an article, as journalists are protected under freedom of speech.
Just put your social media accounts in private mode
Despite having multiple victim cards in my racial makeup, I apparently present as white. I’ve had people ask me if I agree that it’s hard for white straight males to have an opinion, just to be openly laughed at and derided, when I told them it can be. Pointing at the supremacy of men in the past, as if that’s somehow justification to belittle us now, because it’s just “our turn”
Being a "white presenting" minority is definitely a trip. I'm Gen X. You think it's bad now.... If I spoke up, I was the problem. Do you hate yourself or do you lose your job? "What are you" haunts me to this day. I love being diverse but it definitely has its challenges.
Racism against white people is still racism.
Ah yes, you present fine, so you arent a real minority, a classic.
I used to be more on the left side before I started looking into stuff but I've totally changed my mind about certain things. Anywho just because you don't like the other side doesn't mean you should wish them to die or anyting bad.. it reminds me of the whole situation with the rich people that died in the submarine, so many people were happy they died but honestly I was sad. Just because they were rich; doesn't mean they deserve to die. I would love to be rich one day myself 😅
earlier these year I joined an art half day program in Connecticut, I knew from the start it would be somewhat woke as pride flags lined the walls with pronouns etc. I was a right-wing conservative and didn’t agree with the veiws, but I lived art and beleived that if I ignored it, it would go away.
The first day they immediately asked for my pronouns. I left that blank.
The next day the teachers asked what our pronouns were and what out pronouns were around our parents. Showing that they are hiding their students mental illness from their parents. We sat in the auditorium for 45 minutes almost everyday for them to talk about BLM, activism and Pride.
As a Christian I have no problem with Blm or activists in general. But I see Lgbtq (gay, trans etc) as a sin. I will not go out of my way to harm you, but I will not take part in your sin.
I am 14 this was my experience I left in a week
this kinda reminds me of fahrenheit 451. like, i didn't love the book (it was a bit too metaphorical for me and i never cared about what happened to the characters, lol), but i really agreed with the idea that we shouldn't censor what we say just because it might hurt someone's feelings. It's scary to think that that's kind of the direction america is headed in, though...
I love your voice and expressions while reading the stories. Too funny. Thank you.
something funny that happened at my job once is that we had a training tape that included using gender neutral terms for customers and we literally did not follow it, not even my boss
I’m a young, black, pansexual female who’s neither on the left nor the right (but probably more right leaning) and it’s so funny to me that my old, white, straight male friend who’s far left tells me that I’m homophobic or racist and that I should be offended by certain things because of how “oppressed” I am😂. I usually fight fire with fire so I always tell him that I’m the minority group that’s soooo oppressed so he has no right to tell me what’s offensive to my groups. That usually gets him to calm down but there was one time when he blocked me for saying that💀. (We’re still friends tho and he has recently started to hear me out about how dumb all this leftist stuff is).
Identity politics. Stop identifying, start living.
@@star_dante i know that bro. But identity was relevant to the story. 🤦🏽♀️
@@NaishiYT you immediately outed yourself as a leftist when you described yourself as "pansexual".
You think we don't know your lingo? lmao 😅
@@elgatofelix8917 but I’m not a leftist? It was relevant to the story. That’s like saying because someone’s black, they’re obviously a democrat. There are different types of people and having something in common with one group doesn’t make you associated with that group. Y’all leftists and right winged people have so much in common and you don’t even realize that.
Ignore these people. Happy to hear a perspective from someone with common sense! Not all people on the right act like this
A few years ago, myself and fellow Directors were dragged into a session on Inclusivity and Diversity. We were told that if we said anything that could possibly be interpreted as discriminatory either by an individual or someone observing that we could be in trouble. I made the point that nothing is black and white: something I say might be considered completely innocent by one person and offend another person. The HR witch told me this wasn't possible. My only regret is that I didn't leave the room at this point.
You’re such a great role model for young women! Keep up the great work girl❤️
We need more young ladies like you .
I had to make a whole new set of social media accounts and I make sure not to connect with anyone I know, as almost everyone I know (friends, family etc) are far left. My sister went through my twitter and said "ugh, this is a bad look" about someone I retweeted. I feel so much freer now and actually enjoy social media, I can like and share without fear of people I know.
That’s kind of sad you felt you had to do that. If anyone you know gives you a hard time over who you follow, tell them to grow the hell up. If they don’t like it then that’s their problem.
@toshland5687 Thankyou, yes it is sad. Especially when they yell that I need to think for myself ( by thinking like them). I just got tired of dealing with it and here we are.
Misha for president. Thank you for helping to expose these policies and behaviors.
Misha, u are so sensible and grounded. Well done , hats off to you.
#1: Don't be on social media with your co-workers. #2: If you are questioned about this, tell them that social media is a blight to humanity and you're not on it. They will never be able to refute this.
So refreshing to hear from a young persons view that is not all woke, aggressive and totally misguided
I genuinely dreading the generations that are next in line to govern the world our loved ones will grow up in.
It is so depressing…
Nice to see you back Misha
Thank you!:)
This is not "being left", it's about a) doing a shit job as an employer, an employee and a teacher, b) using neither common sense nor heart, c) educating young people to be like that too.
A guy I know was obsessed with educating his daughter in a liberal mindset, aka not teaching her respect or socializing her but making her believe that the entire world moved around her. She moved out to live with her mother (they were divorced) a day before Christmas, without an explanation. Years later she testified against her father in court because she wanted more alimony from him.
This mindset is breeding monsters who believe they can do anything and think only of themselves. The people who support them will sooner or later realize that these people can change from being the ally to being the enemy within a minute. They will reap what they sow.
I am a preschool teacher and at my last job at this school I quit because they had a drag curriculum for the children (mind you they are between 2-5 years old) Now I refuse to work in any “woke” school. In fact when I do any interviews the first thing I ask them is “whats your 💉 policy?” And I also ask “if there is a kid in your classroom and they identify as non-binary or use they/them pronouns how do you as a school handle these situations?” And after they answer it makes me decide if I move on with my interview or not.
HR called me a Nazi and had me fired for telling on a Somalian co-worker that didnt do his job. Havent had a Job since thanks to the branding.
and i know people there still, the somalians still have not done even 10 minutes work since they got hired this has been going on for many years...
I feel you. I asked women at work in 2018 “Could we could stop congregating for these cry sessions and get back to work? He’ll be in office til 2020 and this is ridiculous.”
They all went to HR and made my life miserable. I just left. Didn’t have to be there.
You give me hope for your generation. You're my daughters age and we argue so much over everything. I don't talk to her about anything serious anymore or around her.
I have childhood friends and siblings who’ve gone through similar transformations. Don’t let your tensions flare and it will lend a lot in making you appear more stable (and more congenial) in the long run.
It can take a long time for a line of thought to “click” in someone’s head. Don’t give up on serious conversation, those are the ones that keep people thinking.
It’s more important to keep tensions low and give them a small win or find common ground every now and then, when it’s warranted of course.
