How DEI Ideology Undermines National Security

In response to President Joe Biden’s June 2021 executive order, many federal agencies—from NASA to the Department of Defense—released plans to pursue diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in their day-to-day operations. In a recent comment on these efforts, one senior Defense Department official said he hopes “as many leaders and members of the total force as possible see [these] efforts as a force multiplier.”

In fact, DEI is a dangerous ideology—so dangerous that our leaders should regard it as a threat to national security, not an imperative of it. Many have already critiqued DEI as it appears in our nation’s universities. As Dorian Abbot and Ivan Marinovic recently explained, DEI violates ethical and legal principles of equality, compromises universities’ mission and undermines the public’s trust. When DEI is applied outside of higher education, such as within the federal government, these problems are exponentially worse, and for many reasons.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh Brands Canada Homophobic During Pride Month

In contemporary Canada, expositions of pride take on a peculiar form– none more unusual than NDP Party Leader Jagmeet Singh’s approach to the topic:

“We must acknowledge that the colonial history of our country has actively had a harmful impact on 2SLGBTQI+ people. Two Spirit and Indigenous LGBTQQIA+ identities were actively attacked and purposefully destroyed. People who were once honored in their communities and held important traditional roles were left shamed, rejected and vulnerable.”

Transgender Politics: Canada’s New Oppressed Minority Class

In Canada, the transgender movement recently received a giant shot in the arm. Our country is the first among western democracies to release a demographic report revealing the number of trans-Canadians. Pegged at 100,000, the amount represents .03 percent of our population. A mere trifle– but enough to provide an energy boost to the post-modern identifiable community.

Black Canadians twice as likely to trust the government — but less likely to trust police: survey

… For example, it found that 41 per cent of Black people surveyed said they trusted the government, compared to 22 per cent within the general population. The same proportion said they trusted Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, compared with 33 per cent surveyed in the general population. The higher approval rating comes despite photos of Trudeau wearing blackface and brownface surfacing in 2019, something he has apologized for because of its racist history.

The left is warping America’s view of itself

As progressive causes dominate the media, a poll found huge overestimates of the number of black, gay and trans people

American ignorance is always an easy target. But my compatriots’ misconceptions about the US illustrated by a recent YouGov poll aren’t merely comical. They’re telling.

On average, the respondents estimate that 41 per cent of their countrymen are black, when the real figure is 12 per cent. More astonishingly, black Americans believe that 52 per cent of the country is also black. Respondents think America’s population is 29 per cent Asian (true: 6 per cent), 39 per cent Hispanic (true: 17 per cent), and 27 per cent Native American (true: 1 per cent). Those guesstimates add up to an arithmetically impossible 136 per cent (but then, no one ever loses money betting on the lousiness of Americans’ mathematical skills) — and that includes zero white people. The headline on this survey might have read: “Americans believe whites in the US have been subject to total genocide and don’t seem especially bothered”.

Trudeau’s Ethnic Community Preferences Define Legacy Of Social Division

For six-plus years media has been covering up a definitive aspect within the leadership style of Justin Trudeau. Throughout the time period, a social standard has quietly been maintained: government and media refuse to make reference Canada’s Anglophone communities.

Let us contrast this with treatment of 3rd World communities. Day after day, references to Sikh, Chinese and Muslim communities colour the flavour of media presentation. Quebecois culture, identity and heritage are a coveted commodity. But never an explicit reference Anglo-Canadians. For unspoken political reasons, this remains taboo.

The left-wing case against identity politics

It is time progressives stood up to the racism, classism and misogyny of wokeness.

The Identity Myth by David Swift is a fun and clever book. It’s a counterblast to the Flapper Girl socialism of Novara Media. It brilliantly dismantles the ‘NeoOrientalism’ of the identitarian left. It lights a fire under the arse of the graduate left who say, without a flicker of shame, that 65-year-old working-class people who own their homes are the new propertied elite while posh twentysomethings with PhDs who pay sky-high rents in hip Hackney are the new proles. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering how the left lost the plot, how a movement founded to represent the interests of the working class ended up treating the working class as a lost, hopeless, mostly racist cause, you could do worse than start here.

Why Media Push For The Hijab To Define Canadian Politics

It would do Canadians well to contemplate an unnerving trend in society. Why is it that fringe social issues continuously take centre-stage in federal politics? For example, transgenderism. Based on media presentation, one would believe that transitioning one’s sexual identity is a commonplace experience among citizens.

Of course, it isn’t. 99% of Canadians do not indulge in the practice. Yet, by way of mainstream media, an objective observer would believe sex change surgery to be as common as rain in North Vancouver.

School Paper Tells Pre-Teen Students How To Protest, Sets Different Rules For White Kids

“When it comes to Black Lives Matter protests, if you’re not Black, remember that you’re there to show your support and amplify Black voices,” the article read.

“ESPECIALLY if you’re White, if they’re offering the megaphone for anyone to speak, it’s not for you,” the middle school publication continued. “You are here to listen and to show support.”

The list of tips went on to tell students how to dress, what not to record, and how to talk to police if they were taken into custody.
