I don't know. In these parts the "DEI crowd" (whatever that means) shows up. They're brothers and sisters in arms too, even if they carry a pink rifle.





That said, I went to an Ohio rally a couple years ago and one of the senators tore off into an anti gay marriage rant. At a 2A rally. Why? How did that advance the cause of the 2A? Did we gain allies with that rant?

Anyone into the whole DEI bullshit is the ENEMY. Fucking PERIOD.
Anything they bore into like the parasites they really are is coopted, then ruined. It's what they do, it's literally part of the plan. Any firearms knowledge you share with them they plan on eventually using against you. The left doesn't want any kind of co-existence, cooperation, or coming together. They want you fucking dead, they TELL you this. REPEATEDLY. If you don't understand or accept this, know that we will laugh when they betray you, make memes, and celebrate your passing as Darwin's theory working as intended.

I’d just assume diversity means its ok to own guns even without constitutional guarantees hindering government actions.  And inclusion can be assumed if you support freedom (and freedom of association). Equity??  Go see the WEF folks.  They are the largest whales around and control the most resources…don’t go whining to the average Joe and expect more than sympathy.

So, in short, we are already DIE.

The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion industry under Woke Marxism is easy to understand. Equity is a rebranding of Socialism: an administered economy that makes outcomes equal. Diversity and Inclusion are tools used to install political officers and to censor and remove dissidents, respectively. In other words, the Woke Marxist DEI industry is a racket designed to install commissars for its ideology.

Everything has a limit, which is why I recommend a 2 part test as a filter:

1) does this person and/or group still acknowledge the electoral process as a method for resolving differences? This is more of a politically agnostic one, because there's groups across the spectrum that fail it.

2) do they acknowledge an individual right's interpretation of the 2nd amendment, or do they disavow it in favor of a collectivist "community self defense" interpretation? This tends to impact lefty groups more, because this sort of justification follows from lefty principles. Many of the more dedicated leftist groups don't recognize an individual right to own guns, and only support gun ownership by people explicitly dedicated to working in alignment with their objectives.

groups like Austin Red Guards fail both, while other groups like Socialist Rifle Association fail the latter at a minimum. I think Liberal Gun Club passes, but just barely.

My experience is DEI is a marxist principle various groups ascribe to.  A polite way to tell white people you suck, where there was never a problem before.  Give them classes to try to brainwash them into believing they suck.  

It is race baiting to accomplish marxist goals.  Fuck any and all who install these departments within their companies or places of work and move on them.

But no to my knowledge there is no DEI group that is tangible like ANTIFA or BLM, those would be two examples of groups who would carry out the DEI ideals.  

DEI is an HR smokescreen to continually fundamentally change America.  Thank you barry.

Jesus. This thread just affirms my belief that the right/conservatives/mainstream gun owners are just loser whiners who want to lose.

I only saw maybe 1 or 2 people in the thread advocate for actually taking an influencer/managing role in something DEI related. Everyone else predictably did the whole "fuck that BS keep it away from me" act.

DEI and ESG are here to stay, and no amount of whining by middle age white men is going to make it go away. You can pray to God about it, you can rant about it on Facebook and Next Door, you can even run your humble little rural machine shop in bumfuck nowhere and have an anti-DEI, anti-ESG company motto, but none of those things leverages the fact that DEI is something that can be shaped to be less woke than most perceive it to be, but you have to actually step up and volunteer.

The reason why leftists are so good at controlling certain segments of society is they constantly try to run shit. School boards, HR diversity committees, voter outreach initiatives.. they always have a commanding presence because the right/conservatives are always like "Oh I'm too busy with my REAL job to spend any time on that crap". Well where has that mentality gotten western society today? Public teachers are grooming your kids to be trans, colleges are marxism breeding grounds, and even some churches have become progressive safe houses where they fly rainbow flags and refer to God as "she".

Maybe it's worth you being less productive at your job, if it means you get an influential role on your company's diversity hiring board. Which one matters more?

The leftists are clever, they wrap preferential privileges up as if they’re rights and then trade them against actual rights.  The gay activists of the 60’s-90’s are now being targeted as “not inclusive enough”. The radicals paint them as discriminatory towards the trans and pans now… it’s the commie “struggle sessions” manifest in popular cultural.form.

The left seeks ever smaller minorities to divide and exploit for political expedience. If they convince them you hate them and conservatives would kill them, they’ve won the hearts and minds game and they’ll choke down authoritarianism to control you while they barely notice it’s their rights too that are stripped away, until one day they realize society as a whole is diminished of civil liberties.

More of an idea, but I don't think Alex meant it the way it's being taken in the thread. I think he's just more referencing expanding beyond the "rural conservative White male" demographic, which In itself isn't an issue. The real issue imo is no one's really been talking about exactly where that ends, which is a byproduct of gun fetishism. Not collaborating with ISIS on gun rights is a no-brainer, but there's other people and groups as well that should give a reasonable person pause.

Well where has that mentality gotten western society today? Public teachers are grooming your kids to be trans, colleges are marxism breeding grounds, and even some churches have become progressive safe houses where they fly rainbow flags and refer to God as "she".

Maybe it's worth you being less productive at your job, if it means you get an influential role on your company's diversity hiring board. Which one matters more?


I can agree with this.  Fighting back means sacrifices.

And I would suggest that when reality sets in, cancellation begins.  1 seat among 7 on a board.  Not to mention in non elected positions you will be required indoctrination with those types of degrees to to even get a seat at the table?  

This will be a non starter from the beginning.  It already is.  But do what you feel compelled to do.  Your self determination is yours.  I will not comply or settle.  Its already happened in my life and they were shut down and defanged because people on my side stood up.  I don't really want to get any more detailed than that.  There is harsh bitterness from the side who pushed this and lost, it amounted to 3-4 people in mid level power.

I'm subscribing to this bitch, there is some good material here!

To me DEI is just an excuse to curtail my rights/freedoms while expanding theirs. It's almost to point that a straight white man is going to jail if you look at one of them sideways.

That's the collectivist "community self defense" concept I'm referring to.

The reason why leftists are so good at controlling certain segments of society is they constantly try to run shit. School boards, HR diversity committees, voter outreach initiatives.. they always have a commanding presence because the right/conservatives are always like "Oh I'm too busy with my REAL job to spend any time on that crap".
