CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— The best time to be alive is now – Editorial
(DIERSEN: UIC admitted me in 1966 when I was 17, but because of my demographics, if I was 17 today, I doubt that UIC would admit me today. NIU admitted me in 1969 when I was 20, but because of my demographics, if I was 20 today, I doubt that NIU would admit me today. Loyola admitted me in 1972 when I was 23, but because of my demographics, if I was 23 today, I doubt that Loyola would admit me today. DePaul admitted me in 1976 when I was 27, but because of my demographics, if I was 27 today, I doubt that DePaul would admit me today. IIT admitted me in 1992 when I was 43, but because of my demographics, if I was 43 today, I doubt that IIT would admit me today. The Post Office hired me in 1966 when I was 18, but because of my demographics, if I was 18 today, I doubt that the Post Office would hire me today. Firestone Stores hired me in 1970 when I was 21, but because of my demographics, if I was 21 today, I doubt that Firestone Stores would hire me today. General Motors offered me a job 1971 when I was 22, but because of my demographics, if I was 18 today, I doubt that General Motors would hire me today. IRS hired me in 1971 when I was 22, but because of my demographics, if I was 22 today, I doubt that IRS would hire me today. GAO hired me in 1980 when I was 31, but because of my demographics, if I was 31 today, I doubt that GAO would hire me today. Ever-increasingly, everyone is required/forced to give more preference to those who are minority, female, LGBTQ, younger, and/or veteran. In addition, ever-increasingly, the following demographics are disfavored: conservative, Republican, American, non-poor, gun owner, Protestant, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
— Justice Department Applauds Passage of the Criminal Antitrust Anti-Retaliation Act
(DIERSEN: My Democrat GAO superiors retaliated against me because I was an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. They did not promote me beyond GS-13, they threw me off audits of IRS, they gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old. Previously, because I complained about discrimination, they got rid of my mentor in 1987, they kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and they forced me to take a $20,157 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

Be honest about résumé gaps—hiring managers understand that layoffs happen. Be honest about what you know and what you don’t know—they already accepted your résumé based on your skills and experience. Now is the time to talk up that experience, not lie or embellish it.)

PSYCHOLOGY TODAY
— JANUARY 23, 2017 FLASHBACK: Making Life-Changing Decisions – Shahram Heshmat Ph.D
. (DIERSEN: Some of my life-changing decisions are below. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always been extremely critical of all the decisions that I have made.)
https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/science-choice/201701/making-life-changing-decisions

— To get student draft deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. My outstanding father died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My outstanding mother had never attended high school and had never worked outside of the home. My brother was attending high school.

— To always have a job. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972; collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980; and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. I passed the Post Office employment examination in 1966. I passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970. I took a $20,157 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. The adverse actions that they had taken against me stopped me from finding a job appropriate for someone with my education, work experience, professional certifications, and professional license.

— To be a union member while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and for IRS 1971-1980.

— To accept a job offer from Oldsmobile. In 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in a) Firestone Stores firing me and b) my accepting a job offer from IRS.

— To claim sick leave in 1968 and 1969 while I worked for the Post Office and to file grievances when those claims were denied, to claim partial-day per-diem while I worked for IRS 1973-1974 and to file a grievance when that claim was denied, and to deduct my educational expenses 1972-1981 and 1992-1997 and to go to Small Claims Tax Court when my 1974-1977 deductions were denied.

— To get a job-related bachelor’s degree. I took college preparatory courses at Crete-Monee High School, got into the upper 20% of my 1966 graduating class, got a score of 24 on the ACT, earned/saved enough money washing dishes for the minimum wage to buy a new car in 1966 to commute to/from classes at UIC from my parents’ home in Crete.

— To qualify myself for better paying jobs. I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree in management from NIU when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance from Loyola, DePaul, and IIT when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30 (CPA) , 32 (Certified Internal Auditor), 41 (Certified Fraud Examiner), 45 (certified Government Financial Manager), 47 (Certified Financial Services Auditor), and 48 (Forensic Accountant), and c) a job-related professional license (CPA) when I was 32. I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. I grandfathered into the other certifications.

— To not pay rent. I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972, a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, and a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976. My wife and I bought a home in Wheaton in 1978 and we had one built in Wheaton in 1984. I walked to work at IRS and to graduate business and accounting courses 1974-1978. I recently bought a 20-foot by 40-foot unit at Iron Gate Motor Condos in Naperville.

— To be the subject of a Money Magazine One Person’s Finances article in 1978. Money Magazine a) foisted negative government employee stereo types on me and painted my education deductions as being improper.

— To get married. I got married in 1978. My wife and I gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents.

— To save for retirement.

— To buy cars. I bought a 1958 Chevy BelAir in 1964, 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, 1972 Chevy Corvette in 1971, 1962 Chevy BelAir in 1971, 1974 Dodge Dart in 1973, 1978 Chevy Chevette in 1978, 1978 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale in 1978, 1962 Chevy Impala SS in 1989, 1990 Ford Thunderbird LX in 1989, 1993 Ford Thunderbird in 1993, 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 1n 1994, 1996 Ford Thunderbird LX in 1995, 1997 Chevy Cavalier in 1996, 2005 Chevy Corvette in 2005, 2003 Chevy Cavalier LS in 2010, 2013 Dodge Charger R/T Max in 2012, 2016 Ford Mustang in 2016, and 2019 Ford Escape Titanium in 2019. I continue to own the 1972 Corvette, 1996 Thunderbird, 2003 Cavalier, 2005 Corvette, 2013 Charger, Mustang, and Escape.

— To be a gun owner and to not hide that fact.

— To be conservative and to not hide that fact. I have never used pot and I never will. I have never been and never will be a smoker, drinker, or gambler.

— To be a Republican and to not hide that fact.

— To not hide the fact that I was born in 1948, that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, that I am 100% German national origin, that my ancestors have been in America since 1844, that I avoided the draft, that I lived in Crete 1948-1972, and that I have lived in Wheaton since 1978.

— To complain to my Democrat superiors in the federal government about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.

— To became an active member of a class action lawsuit in 1988 when I was 40 years old that charged my Democrat GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.

— To file various lawsuits.

— To become a Republican Precinct Committeeman in 1999, GOPUSA Illinois Editor in 2000, Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster in 2000 and 2008, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member in 2001, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member in 2003, and TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman in 2005. In 2004, I unsuccessfully ran for MTRO Treasurer.

— To support Republican candidates in primaries and caucuses who can and will defend and advance the Republican Party platform.

— To support Republican candidates who win primary elections or caucuses.

— To promote the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform.

— To oppose the promotion of dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendment, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

— To not be used, manipulated, or dominated by anyone. To not be anyone’s operative or dupe.

Even if your current paycheck is great and you see yourself evolving at your company, if you spend your days dreading Mondays and avoiding your colleagues, you should consider looking for an employer that fosters collaboration, transparency, and healthy work relationships at the office—even if that office is at home.)

HARVARD BUSINESS REVIEW
— How Business Schools Can Help Close the Gender Gap – Aradhna Krishna and Yeşim Orhun
(DIERSEN: IIT accepted me in 1992 when I was 43, DePaul accepted me in 1976 when I was 27, Loyola accepted me in 1972 when I was 23, NIU accepted me in 1969 when I was 20, and UIC accepted me in 1966 when I was 17. I doubt that they would accept be now because my demographics are so bad. I am White, male, non-veteran, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German American, non-poor, conservative, Republican, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.)

— How Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell has affected LGBTQ service members, 10 years after repeal – Ali Rogin
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about how Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion have adversely affected me. In 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in a) Firestone Stores firing me and b) my accepting a job offer from IRS. While I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997, my superiors were always under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to give preference to their Democrat employees who were minority, female, younger, and/or veteran, that is, they were always under pressure to get rid of their Republican employees who were White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)

https://dailycaller.com/2020/12/10/mike-lee-senate-republicans-big-tech-section-230-censorship/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Utah Sen. Mike Lee emerged as a leading voice against Big Tech by introducing a bill to hold platforms accountable for viewpoint censorship and supporting a separate bill to amend Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. Lee introduced the Promoting Responsibility Over Moderation In the Social Media Environment Act (S.4975) Tuesday in the Senate. The bill — colloquially called the PROMISE Act — would require social media platforms to disclose their content moderation policies to users and would be barred from moderating certain types of content, according to a press release. “The billionaires who own our nation’s Big Tech companies have every right to be partisan political actors,” Lee said in a statement. “What they don’t have a right to do is make promises to consumers that they will provide unbiased platforms and then discriminate against conservatives on those same platforms.” Republican lawmakers have expressed concern that Big Tech companies like Twitter, Facebook and Google are using their online platforms to blacklist or censor conservative viewpoints.)

How strongly do Biden voters want Biden to use the federal government to get rid of those who voted for Trump in your neighborhood, in your precinct, in your municipal district, in your municipality, in your township, in your county district, in your county, in Illinois, and in America? 269 voted for Biden in my precinct while only 157 voted for Trump. 39,530 voted for Biden in Milton Township while only 26,080 voted for Trump. 281,222 voted for Biden in DuPage County while only 193,611 voted for Trump.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 2. How does bias creep in? In any number of ways: People making a program can introduce biases, or the algorithms can “learn” bad behavior from training data before launch or from users afterward, causing results to warp over time. Software engineers can inadvertently discriminate against people. Facebook was embarrassed in 2015 when some Native Americans were blocked from signing up for accounts because their names — including Lance Browneyes and Dana Lone Hill — were judged fake. And Amazon.com Inc. ran into problems when an AI system it was testing to screen job applicants “taught” itself to weed out women. In other cases, algorithms may have been trained on too narrow a slice of reality.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “THIS is what division and fear looks like. We are ALL God’s children. This rhetoric is disgusting and offensive,” Sen. Kelly Loeffler, Nov. 14 tweet in reference to a 2016 sermon by The Rev. Raphael Warnock in which he said that “American needs to repent for its worship of whiteness.” . . . Warnock told worshippers that America needed to repent for glorifying whiteness and celebrity, and ignoring Trump’s often-harsh remarks until the Access Hollywood tape was released. He also criticized Georgia for refusing to expand Medicaid and increase the minimum wage. . . He then added, in reference to the 2016 presidential election: “No matter what happens next month, the more than a third of the nation that would go along with this is reason to be afraid. America needs to repent for its worship of whiteness on full display this season.”)
