"It's a right-wing bogeyman and they use it to scare people because it works. Just like it did with you."

Your right, I'm an idiot unable to think for myself. Me and everyone else that believes this. People who believe as you do are the only intelligent ones able to think for themselves.

Everything I have experienced related to DEI is not real and part of the massive collective hallucination experienced by anyone that doesn't 100% support it.

Being told to "sit in my shame" was good. The VP of DEI responding to Asians expressing fear during the rash of unwarranted attacks on them a year ago by other minorities by telling them white supremacy was to blame was good.

Thank you for showing me the light.

It is bold of you to admit this, but I commend you, even despite your apparent and admitted idiocy.

Who told you to sit in your shame? Honestly you sound like a prick. Acknowledging your prejudices isn’t shameful, denying you have prejudices, well, that says a lot about you - and none of it is good. All I can hope is maybe some day you’ll grow up.
