The Insane "Social Justice" Thread II

[IndyTom]

My company, for as long as I've worked for them (20+ years) has never re-imbursed for alcohol. There is no prohibition from drinking in a non-business setting but it's on your own dime

I'm not aware of anyone challenging it or complaining, it always seemed quite quaint but admirable in that the owners obviously had ethical standards and took them seriously (and we are paid very well indeed, so not like it's a hardship). Their party, their rules

Not wanting people drinking on the company dime and potentially doing something to embarrass the company is rather different than limiting the entire menu to, what, Lenten foods (if they allow shrimp). Very SJW-smelling. As for, "Their party, their rules," that was covered by my first sentence.

Yeah, I looked there... couldn't find this story.

Fun Fact: 9-1-1 was first rolled out in Huntington, IN. So they could quickly call the police if they saw a black person.

Well, it was Huntington so it has probably never been used for its intended purpose.

Can you explain what that means? Is it a Walking Dead thing with the bat?

... Two Google docs.... full of genders.... and flags for many of them. Oddly, male and female are missing.

I have no idea what the origin for this is... but it's something super special.

Genders A-K
Genders L-Z

That's a joke, right? Because some of those are quite funny.

I'm a digigender, myself.

Gov project I'm working on just jumped onboard the more than 2 genders train.

Sigh.

High School Leadership Summit 2018 by Turning Point USA. The bat is just a threat and the tweet has been deleted.

Ah, thank you.

what the **** is pozphobia. these people are addicted to making up new words

 

[JettaKnight]

Had to look that up: Poz-phobia is a fear of (or in reality, a preference against) HIV positive relationships.

If you're gay, and don't date an HIV positive man, you're pozphobic.

Besides...wouldn't doing this (black buffy reboot) be cultural appropriation?

...or am I not doing this right?

You're not doing it right.
It only goes one way.

This is highly illogical, captain...

Didn't you ever notice, the people screaming about "cultural appropriation", have no problem appropriating culture.

Their outrage their rules!

I know......

 

[BugI02]

Oh sure. But with Kut gone, we all have to do our part to point out hypocrisies and inconsistencies around us.

Do the hypocrisies and inconsistencies actually need to exist? Asking for a friend

Yeah, you right!

He's going to look a little silly when the .40 hits him in the chest.


Of course, people would defend him, saying he "just has a bat".
As if that's somehow "better".

Guess this person never heard of counter snipers. Or thought that maybe, just maybe, the Secret Service might have some experience with this.

But of course.. the person is just not "being serious". And being brave from a keyboard.
