Deanne Criswell, the head the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency says she made Equity her priority, then FEMA held DEI training saying the U.S. is rooted in extreme violence and White Supremacy is in almost every institution.

Woke activists hijacked FEMA,

A Thread🧵
Image
2/
Thanks to reporting from Ben Wilson at the Washington @FreeBeacon we know that FEMA held a series of DEI trainings, one of which claimed that the U.S. is rooted in extreme violence, and the established systems in the U.S. require oppression of subjegated people. Image
Image
@FreeBeacon 3/
In a "Letter from the Administrator" Crisswell said that she wanted to make Equity the "foundation of emergency management.

That means that rather then effectiveness or efficiency in responding to disaster, the focus of disaster relief is "equity."

This is absurd. Image
Image
4/
This is confirmed by the fact that we have Equity as the foundation of disaster relief being built right into the FEMA strategic plan.

When time is valuable and lives hang in the balance you need to move as fast as you can, there's not time to bean count for equity. Image
5/
Further, in the strategic plan FEMA says they are going to make sure FEMA's workforce "matches the diversity of the nation." This is impossible without racial hiring quotas, which is what is going to happen (if it hasn't already) Image
6/
FEMA also says they are going to "determine if FEMA’s workforce demonstrates an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission.

To be clear: FEMA is going to implement DEI when delivering disaster relief.Image
7/
FEMA is also going to encourage employees to spend their time and resources coming up with more ideas related to Diversity Equity and Inclusion.

As you can see, an incredible amount of time and resources are being sucked up by DEI initiatives at FEMA. Image
8/
FEMA is also going to streamline support for vulnerable people. This is ok in some cases (IE those with disabilities who need special assistance to live) but FEMA wants to prioritize people who don't speak english over those who do speak english.

This is not acceptable. Image
9/
IT gets even worse. FEMA is going to "develop and implement an annual equity and civil rights assessment agenda, building on the steps taken in developing the Equity Action Plan."

Which means it wants to bring in an entire civil rights apparatus and Equity Action Plan. Image
Image
10/
FEMA is supposed to respond to emergencies, and instead they are using their budget to advance the ideological agenda of leftist activists. In the process they are making their response times slower, and their operations less effective.

This is what DEI does everywhere...
11/
It takes over every organization it gets a foothold in and then uses that organization as a vehicle to advance woke ideology.

That is what is happening with FEMA, and we need to figure out how to stop it.

Remember when Jon Stewart brought Andrew Sullivan on his show and called him racist?

Lisa Bond, the activist in the video, worked with "Race2Dinner," a group whose DEI grift @MattWalshBlog exposed in "Am I Racist?"

With that in mind lets' talk about handle race grifters🧵

Activists in the Social Justice (AKA: “woke”) movement, do not debate through rationality, reason, arguments, logic, and so fourth, they accuse their opponents of being racist, sexist, homophobic, bigots, as a way to cover their opponents with social stink.
3/
This is the weaponizing of social stigma and accusations of bigotry as a way to win a debate by destroying the reputation, social standing, and moral authority of ones opponent in order to turn them into a social pariah.

It's a way of socially punishing people for disagreeing

How did the woke become convinced that
-socialism is better than capitalism
-men can become women
-Hamas is the good guys
-5 year olds can change their gender?

It's because the Critical Theory wokeness is based on gets almost everything wrong

Lets talk about that

A Thread🧵
2/
According to postmodern variants of Critical Theory the bone of contention in every debate or argument is always power. In this view at the bottom of every argument is a set of political considerations and interests and those are the things that are actually at issue.
3/
If the arguments had no political consequences no one would bother to participate in the argument. It is only the fact that the acceptance of one view over another has political consequences that makes the argument worth having; if there were no consequences no one would care.

This U.S. government report is the most insane thing I've ever seen. It calls for:

-Men in women's prisons
-letting boys use girls washrooms in k-12
-cross-sex hormone access for foster kids
-lawsuits to help minors get hormones and surgery

It's way worse than you think /🧵 Image
2/
In the section on School and education on the chief concerns is making sure people "use the bathroom that aligns with their gender identity."

In practice this means letting boys who identify as girls use the girls bathroom even if they have fully biology. Image
3/
The report says transgender inmates should be allowed to access facilities that align with their gender identity.

In practice this will mean fully functioning biological males who *identify* as female will have a right to be housed in women's prisons.

That's totally absurd Image
