Duke Medical School claims it is "White supremacy culture" to expect people of color to be on time in a strategic plan for creating an "Anti-Racist Workforce."

The medical school said its goal is to "catalyze anti-racist practice through education," in a 2021 plan titled "Dismantling Racism and Advancing Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the School of Medicine." The guide - praised by the school's dean - called out what it deemed "White supremacy culture," with its purported nitpicking of being on time, dress code, speech and work style. It also contains a series of negative terminology vis-à-vis White culture.

"White supremacy culture is the idea (ideology) that White people and the ideas, thoughts, beliefs, and actions of white people are superior to People of Color and their ideas, thoughts, beliefs and actions," the document stated.

Marriage promotes 'White supremacy,' according to White university professor

"Marriage fundamentalism" promotes the ideas of "White supremacy," according to a White George Mason University professor.

Professor Bethany Letiecq wrote in the Journal of Marriage and Family about her theory "that marriage fundamentalism, like structural racism, is a key structuring element of White heteropatriarchal supremacy."

"Marriage fundamentalism can be understood as an ideological and cultural phenomenon, where adherents espouse the superiority of the two-parent married family," she wrote. "But it is also a hidden or unacknowledged structural mechanism of White heteropatriarchal family supremacy that is essential to the reproduction and maintenance of family inequality in the United States."

Letiecq is an associate professor in the College of Education and Human Development at George Mason University, "specializing in the utilization of community-based participatory action research approaches, anti-racist research methods."

Comment: In the end, CRT is just an updated version of Marxism which saw family and religion as "tools of the bourgeoise." Maybe McCarthyism existed for a good reason, since it seems the same ideas that were being passed around the Soviet Union have infected multiple Western institutions.

Authorities are literally losing control of the streets as America's societal collapse accelerates

In a civilized society, authorities are able to maintain at least a basic level of law and order in the streets most of the time. Unfortunately, at this point it is up for debate whether the United States is still a "civilized society" or not. The chaos in our streets never seems to end, and those that are in charge of running things don't seem to be able to regain control. The theft, violence and mayhem that we are witnessing in our major cities is being fueled by the worst homelessness crisis in our entire history, the worst drug crisis in our entire history, and the worst migration crisis in our entire history. If authorities cannot control our streets now, what is going to happen once our societal collapse reaches a much more advanced stage?

Israeli soldiers tell +972 Magazine it's 'permissible to shoot everyone, a young girl, an old woman'

The Israeli army approved a "free-for-all" for its soldiers in Gaza that allowed for the almost indiscriminate killing of civilians, according to army sources.

Israeli soldiers told +972 Magazine that they had regularly executed Palestinian civilians just for entering an area the military defined as a "no-go zone".

Two soldiers also described a systematic policy of setting Palestinian homes on fire after occupying them.

Often, the sources said, soldiers would fire at random to blow off steam.

Comment: So the most humanitarian army in the world is indiscriminately murdering non-combatants; women and children among them - while Israel's ambassadors and politicians continue to go on TeeVee and insist that they are only going after Hamas...

No reform or leader is going to save the status quo - we're on our own

The key takeaway here is: don't count on a simplistic ideology or reform or a "supreme leader" to save the status quo from internal failure.

Humans prefer simplicity to complexity. This is why mythologies still resonate with us, despite our hubristic claims to rationality and "following the science." What we actually crave isn't the challenge of teasing apart highly complex systems of interconnected dynamics in which each subsystem influences every other subsystem.

What we crave is a simplistic explanation / answer and a leader who we can follow because they keep repeating the simplistic answer. So we boil complicated systems such as societies and economies down to "capitalism" or 'socialism," and cling to simplistic versions of these ideas as the explanation of human nature and the answer to all our problems.

Gallup poll: Higher education plunges in public confidence

A new poll shows a further erosion of public confidence in higher education as faculty and administrators reduce colleges and universities to mere academic echo chambers. The poll from Gallup and the Lumina Foundation found only 36% of adults have a great deal or a lot of confidence in higher education, a drop from 57% in 2015.

In my new book, "The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage," I have a long chapter on the erosion of free speech and viewpoint diversity in higher education.

We previously discussed how surveys at universities show a virtual purging of conservative and Republican faculty members. For example, last year, the Harvard Crimson noted that the university had virtually eliminated Republicans from most departments but that the lack of diversity was not a problem. Now, a new survey conducted by the Harvard Crimson shows that more than three-quarters of Harvard Arts and Sciences and School of Engineering and Applied Sciences faculty respondents identified as "liberal" or "very liberal." Only 2.5% identified as "conservative," and only 0.4% as "very conservative."

'Key to revolving door': FDA tells staff who leave for pharma jobs they can work 'behind the scenes' to influence agency

According to an internal email obtained by The BMJ, the FDA told a departing staffer who had reviewed COVID-19 vaccines while working at the FDA and who later accepted a job at Moderna that he could still work "behind the scenes" to influence agency decision-making.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) informs departing workers that they can still influence the agency's decision-making after leaving their position to work for the pharmaceutical industry, a new investigation by The BMJ revealed.

According to an internal email obtained by The BMJ, the FDA told departing staffer Doran Fink, M.D., Ph.D. — who had reviewed COVID-19 vaccines while working at the FDA and who had accepted a job at Moderna — that although U.S. law prohibits some forms of lobbying contact between former FDA workers who leave to join the private sector, they "do not prohibit the former employee from other activities, including working 'behind the scenes.'"

Americans are more likely to go to war with the government than submit to the draft

In a national poll last month Americans were asked if they believed a new civil war was likely to happen within their lifetime. The establishment media was shocked to report that 47% of the population said yes. Those of us in the liberty media were not so surprised; I believe according to the evidence that we were already a short step away from civil war in 2021-2022.

There were A LOT of guys (millions) getting ready for the possibility of vaccine passport enforcement. Gun ownership in the US hit record highs during that time period and conservative/patriot groups saw a spike in public interest. As it turned out, the "conspiracy theorists" were right all along, there really was an organized agenda to eliminate constitutional protections...

If we had allowed the vax passport policy to take hold, our liberties would have been officially erased forever. Economic freedoms would be abolished. Access to the jobs market and trade would be impossible for anyone refusing the vaccine. Real-time tracking of the population along with a social credit system would have become the norm using mandatory cell phone apps. After that, America would essentially turn into a Chinese-style concentration camp.

Comment: "A global war and forced conscription is their attempt at removing the "malcontents" before we cause them too much trouble."

'They want to cheat': Elon Musk warns Democrats are planning to steal more elections with non-citizens' votes

Business mogul Elon Musk has warned that Democrats are planning to steal more federal elections by allowing people who are not U.S. citizens to vote.

According to Axios, House Democrats are predictably planning to strike down legislation that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections.

Responding to podcaster Tim Pool, Musk said the reason that Democrats are doing this is because they "want to cheat" in federal elections, as they have done repeatedly over recent election cycles.


Comment: On the ground investigations and evidence for the use of non-citizen voting is already becoming clear: Undercover video exposes illegal aliens admitting to being registered to vote in North Carolina

Radio station cuts ties with host who revealed she asked Biden questions fed to her by president's team

A Philadelphia radio station has cut ties with the host who admitted to asking President Biden questions that were supplied to her by his team, WURD Radio's leadership confirmed Sunday.

Andrea Lawful-Sanders, who previously hosted "The Source" on WURD 96.1 FM, scored the first post-debate interview with Biden last Wednesday.

However, on Saturday, she revealed to CNN's "First of All with Victor Blackwell" that she was fed eight questions by Biden's team — and used four of them as her only queries to the president.

Sara Lomax, WURD Radio's president and CEO, said Sunday that she was not involved in negotiations for the interview.

"The interview featured pre-determined questions provided by the White House, which violates our practice of remaining an independent media outlet accountable to our listeners. As a result, Ms. Lawful-Sanders and WURD Radio have mutually agreed to part ways, effective immediately," Lomax said.
