Two anti-woke bombs were dropped in the United States this past week. Did you feel them?
The first bomb was delivered by the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. It announced it is investigating Nike for discriminating against its white workers. That’s right, white workers.
The E.E.O.C. said it thinks Nike intentionally targeted white employees for layoffs and it wants the company to turn over records of which workers were selected for mentoring and development programs.
What the agency is really saying is that it thinks Nike practiced reverse-discrimination on white people.
A big US corporation like Nike getting stomped by the feds for being anti-white! Wow!
During the years of the Biden administration, workplace wokeness reached a fever pitch. White employees, especially managers, were branded with the original sin of white supremacy, of unconscious bias, of being oppressors. They walked on eggshells, afraid to speak up, fearful of criticizing, petrified of getting hauled into human resources to defend themselves against allegations of aggression, macro and micro.
Diversity, equity and inclusion departments were so powerful; they dictated all forms of workplace behavior. They lorded over hiring, firing and promotions, and they based their decisions not on credentials, but on color.
They subjected white employees to hours of seminars led by experts in social engineering. They were told they were racists, no matter where they were born, no matter how they were raised. They were bigots and haters, simply because they were white.
White workers were guilty until proven innocent and let me tell you, the New York Jets had a better chance of making the Super Bowl this year than a white employee’s chance of winning against his company’s D.E.I. department.
So, the move this past week by the E.E.O.C. against Nike was an essential course correction for an American workplace gone wild.
Bomb number two was dropped this past week by the American Medical Association and by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
These highly influential medical professional organizations said the evidence was insufficient to warrant gender-transitioning surgeries for minors. That means things like no mastectomies for ten-year-olds, no castration for young teens.
These types of surgeries, say those doctors, should be deferred to adulthood. They’re saying there’s no scientific justification for these radical surgeries.
They’re saying we don’t know what effect they have on children, so we shouldn’t be mutilating them.
The narrative we had been fed by the progressives was that young children could decide what gender they wanted to be; a doctor could surgically oblige them, and the medical associations would back them up.
From 2016-2020, according to the Journal of the American Medical Association, about 3,600 patients aged 12-18, had received gender-related surgery, mostly mastectomies.
Can you imagine? Can you believe the idiot parents that bought into that crap and allowed their kids to be disfigured?
But it’s not like the A.M.A. suddenly unearthed new data that made it change its position. Nope. It’s because, just a few years ago, the wokies ruled, and using their mouthpieces in mainstream media, they insinuated their made-up theories into our mainstream lives.
During the Biden years, much like the fascism of the corporate D.E.I. programs that delegitimized white employees, doctors who refused to bend the knee to radical gender ideologies, were stripped of their licenses, sanctioned and discredited.
The narrative the fanatics, the maniacs, the nut jobs told us we had to swallow whole, is now being exposed. Now, we can believe we are not the crazy ones; we are normal.
The unbearable social engineered oppression of the Biden years are coming to an end.
This past week, in the c-suite and in the surgical suite, a semblance of sanity was reinstated, and a modicum of normalcy returned. Two, anti-woke bombs were dropped, whose shockwaves will be felt for years to come.
