I've noticed something lately covering the
woke culture that's threatening to turn corporate offices into university-style safe spaces: There are apparently limits to how far left big companies are willing to veer to gain progressive brownie points.
Case in point: the much-celebrated diversity hustle that companies had begun to embrace during our summer of "largely peaceful protests." Of course, we all want a diverse workforce, but after the tragic murder of George Floyd, some firms thought it would be smart to indoctrinate office workers in that noxious fad known as
Critical Race Theory.CRT is an amalgam of left-wing talking points spewed out by the growing diversity-consulting business. The stated purpose by its practitioners sounds noble enough: Use CRT to root out racism and make the world a better place.
How CRT gets there is the problem. Racism gets rooted out mainly
by brainwashing white people into believing they are inherently evil racists. They are inherently evil racists
because America is systemically racist, no matter how much it has strived during its history to be better.
Thus to be good corporate citizens, they need to be re-educated and reprogrammed from their ยญinherently racist past.
