NEW YORK TIMES
— Why Wokeness Will Fail – BRET STEPHENS (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, to be woke is to be anti-law enforcement, anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-heterosexual, anti-traditional marriage/family, anti-non-poor people, anti-gun owners, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-German American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/09/opinion/social-justice-america.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The problem with the allegation isn’t that it’s flatly wrong: America’s past is shot through with racism and, as Faulkner put it, “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” But the allegation is also incomplete, distorted, ungenerous to former generations that advanced America’s promise, and untrue to the country most Americans know today. Wokeness operates as if there had been no civil rights movement, and that white Americans hadn’t been an integral part of it. It operates as if 60 years of affirmative action never happened, and that an ever-growing percentage of Black Americans don’t belong to the middle and upper class (and that they are, incidentally, concentrated in the American South). It operates as if we didn’t twice elect a Black president and recently bury a Black general as an American icon. It operates as if, in city after city, American police forces aren’t led by Black police chiefs and staffed by officers of diverse backgrounds. It operates as if white supremacy is still being systemically enforced, while ignoring the fact that a previously marginalized ethnic minority, namely Asian Americans, enjoys higher income levels than white Americans. Above all, Wokeness pretends that incidents such as George Floyd’s murder, which are national scandals, are actually national norms. They aren’t, despite current injustices. Most Americans, I suspect, not only sense the falseness of the allegation. They are, increasingly, insulted by it. The insult turns to injury when it comes to the solutions Wokeness prescribes, and in the way that it prescribes them. This doesn’t just mean efforts like “abolish the police” that are so baldly destructive that voters quickly sense their danger. It’s in subtler prescriptions, too.)

AUSTIN AMERICAN STATESMAN
— Democrats must confront their privilege – David Brooks (COMMENT: I should write a book about the success that Democrats and RINOs have had in taking over DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. Their success was shown last year by their tremendous promotion of LGBTQ in downtown Wheaton. Their success was show this year by their stopping Republicans from helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks.)
https://www.statesman.com/story/opinion/2021/11/09/brooks-democrats-must-confront-their-privilege/6337368001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the Democratic Party’s core problems is that it still regards itself mainly as the party of the underdog. But as the information-age economy has matured, the Democratic Party has also become the party of the elite, especially on the cultural front. Democrats dominate society’s culture generators: the elite universities, the elite media, the entertainment industry, the big tech companies, the thriving elite places like Manhattan, San Francisco and Los Angeles. In 2020, Joe Biden won roughly one-sixth of the nation’s counties, but together those counties generate roughly 71% of the nation’s GDP. As the Democrats have become more culturally and economically dominant, many people at tippy-top private schools and super-expensive colleges have flamboyantly associated themselves with the oppressed. Thankfully, that has moved society to more aggressively pursue social and racial justice. Unfortunately, a tacit ideology — sometimes called wokeness — has been grafted on to this pursuit. It includes the notions that society is essentially a zone of conflict between oppressor and oppressed groups, that a person’s identity is predominantly about group identity and that slavery is the defining fact of American history. Because they dominate the cultural commanding heights, including some departments of education and the largest teachers unions, progressive views permeate schools, museums, movies and increasingly the public stances of large corporations. The Republican Party, like many right-populist parties across the Western world, has become a giant vessel of resistance against cultural, urban and information-age elites. Glenn Youngkin, the Republican who was just elected governor of Virginia, expressed that resistance when he said, “I believe parents should be in charge of their kids’ education.” When Democrats seem to be magnifying the education establishment’s control of the classroom and minimizing the role of parents, there’s going to be a reaction. Some of the reaction is pure racism, but a lot of it is pushback against elite domination and the tacit ideology. The results of last Tuesday’s elections show again that resistance against the elites can be a powerful force propelling Republicans to victory. In the final weeks leading up to Youngkin’s victory, education became one of the top issues for Virginia voters. The results also put the Donald Trump phenomenon in a new perspective. Trump was necessary to smash the old GOP and to turn the party into a vanguard of anti-elite resistance. But by 2020, with his moral degradation and all the rest, he was also holding back Republicans. If Republicans can find candidates who oppose the blue oligarchy but without too much Trumpian baggage, they can win over some former Biden voters in places like Virginia and New Jersey. Democrats would be wise to accept the fact that they have immense social and cultural power, and accept the responsibilities that entails by adopting what I’d call a Whole Nation Progressivism. America is ferociously divided on economic, regional, racial and creedal lines. The job of leaders is to stand above these divides and seek to heal them. The job of leaders is not to impose their values on everyone else; it is to defend a pluralistic order in which different communities can work out their own values.)

They threw me off audits of IRS, they gave me bad job assignments, they gave me unfair performance expectations, they gave me unfair performance evaluations, they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and they forced me to take the early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

DAILY HERALD
— Some ideas in the works for closing tax loopholes – Richard Keslinke, Algonquin (COMMENT: GAO audits IRS. I should write a book about those who did not want GAO to assign me to audits of IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980, I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 of which at the GS-12 Steep 1-5 Levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul and I completed those requirements in 1980.

What they’re saying: ​Fearing the classes will be taught with a bias against conservative media, Rep.

— UChicago Professor Dorian Abbot’s MIT Lecture Canceled After DEI Opinions Spark National Controversy – Basil Egli
https://chicagomaroon.com/article/2021/11/8/uchicago-professors-mit-lecture-canceled-dei-opinions-spark/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Abbot has been a figure of national controversy since August, when he co-wrote the Newsweek article with Stanford University professor Iván Marinovic. The op-ed expressed concerns about the increasing emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in many colleges and universities. Such initiatives, Abbot and Marinovic argued, are made at the expense of academic excellence and merit, thus actively harming the value of American institutions. The op-ed compared the implementation of DEI curriculums to the rise of Nazi Germany, as “an ideological regime obsessed with race came to power and drove many of the best scholars out.” EAPS chair Robert van der Hilst cited this comparison as one of his key reasons for cancelling the lecture. The authors suggested that DEI should instead be replaced with another standard: Merit, Fairness, and Equality (MFE). The authors described MFE as a method, “whereby university applicants are treated as individuals and evaluated through a rigorous and unbiased process based on their merit and qualifications alone.”)

— One of world’s largest investment firms will need permission to hire White men. State Street Global Advisors previously commissioned the ‘Fearless Girl Statue’ that stared down Wall Street’s ‘Charging Bull’ sculpture. – Emma Colton (COMMENT: GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. In 1997, GAO forced me to retire so that it could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.  In 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.)

— A critique of critical race theory – Eric Utter
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/11/a_critique_of_critical_race_theory.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Does Crappy Critical Race Theory hold that as long as there is still one white person left in the country, it is systemically, structurally racist? Are CRTers saying the only way to eliminate racism is to eliminate the white race? Because that’s what it appears they are implying. And that seems as racist—systemically and structurally racist—as it is possible to be. In fact, it would effectively be genocide. So why, then, do literally millions of people of color (POC) from around the world want to come here? Why do they go to so much trouble and effort to come to this nation? Do they hate themselves? Are they all masochists who wish to be systemically oppressed? Are they all stupid? Perhaps they are all white supremacists, too, à la Larry Elder, Candace Owens, Winsome Sears, et al? It seems odd to me that CRT states that skin color must be the primary way to identify and categorize people.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Funding proposals for implicit bias and antiracism training in schools are coming into focus and some see it as an unnecessary controversy that distracts from education in the state’s 850 districts. A draft proposal from the Illinois State Board of Education Professional Review Panel set to be considered next month contemplates how to spend an additional $350 million from the evidence based funding model that lawmakers approved several years ago. There are recommendations for a variety of programs, including teaching foreign languages. There are also suggestions for “interventions to have more explicit focus on racial dynamic, including equity direct approaches that offer concrete strategies for teachers’ behavioral changes in the classroom and increased bias awareness.” The draft proposals “recognize that students of color do not inherently need additional supports by nature of their race/ethnicity, but that these students do face inequities because of historical and existing structures, and there is a cost attendant with working to dismantle those inequities through training on antiracism and eliminating implicit bias within schools and districts.” To address that, the proposal adds “a specific Professional Development cost … related to implicit bias and antiracism at a fixed per-pupil cost based on overall enrollment, with additional per-pupil dollar amount for all students where a district serves over 50% non-white students.”)

(COMMENT: Expect that ever-increasingly, Kinzinger-supporters, that is, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters, will do everything that they can to destroy individuals, to destroy organizations, to destroy companies, to destroy governments, and to destroy countries that do not hate Trump. This year, Kinzinger-supporters, that is, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters, succeeded in stopping Republicans from helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks.)

— The Golden Moutza: What to give a political fool who has almost everything but brains?

Candidates include Republican leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, Milton Township Republican Organization, and DuPage County Republican Central Committee.

I got student draft deferments 1966-1971 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. I should write a book about those who have used my avoiding the draft against me the most. I would focus on the adverse actions that a) my Democrat Post Office superiors took against me 1966-1969, b) my Democrat Firestone superior took against me 1970-1972, c) my Democrat IRS superiors took against me 1971-1980, and d) my Democrat GAO superiors took against me 1980-1997.)

My Democrat IRS superiors had made it clear that they would never promote me. They had disallowed my education deductions in 1978, gotten rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. They had ignored/dismissed/condemned the fact that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, that I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran, a) GAO would not have forced me to take a pay cut to transfer and b) IRS would not have taken the adverse actions against that it did.)

— Illinois Democrats didn’t just revise the first draft of their congressional map, they offered up a brand new one that pits Democratic Reps. Sean Casten and Marie Newman against each other while also creating a second Latino district. . .Casten is the biggest loser in this map: It cuts up his current district into numerous pieces, leaving him with 25 percent of his constituency in the new 6th District. Newman, who would compete against him in the newly created district, has 39 percent of her current 3rd District. – Shia Kapos

— Millions of workers stay home to watch young children as day cares struggle (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always used the fact that my father earned enough money that my mother could stay home and raise my brother and me to paint my outstanding parents as being filthy rich. My father almost always worked second jobs to help pay the family’s bills. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 in 1967 and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy. My mother was raised on a farm and never attended high school.)

The Republican Party platform is conservative. The more planks in the Republican Party platform that Republican candidates reject, the more discouraged that conservatives are to help elect those candidates. But wait, in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton, more and more and more Republican candidates hint/imply/argue/shout that they are “moderate,” that is, that they reject many planks in the Republican Party platform, that is, that they are anti-conservative, that is, that they are anti-Republican.)

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/24/world/asia/hong-kong-civil-society.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Unions have folded. Political parties have shut down. Independent media outlets and civil rights groups have disappeared. The Hong Kong government, its authority backed fully by Beijing, is shutting down the city’s civil society, once the most vibrant in Asia, one organization at a time. But one group, the Hong Kong Journalists Association, has refused to fold, even as Hong Kong’s security secretary repeatedly singles it out for public criticism. “We will try to fight to the last moment,” said Ronson Chan, the association’s chairman. “But honestly, it’s a gamble. How cruelly will the Beijing government treat us? We know the history of journalists in the People’s Republic of China.” The authorities have used a national security law, which was introduced last year after months of widespread antigovernment protest, to silence dissent. Dozens of groups have been forced to disband.)

When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not want me to transfer, but failing that, they wanted me to transfer as a GS-4 Step 1 (currently $34,956/year) intern, that is, to suffer a $62,439/year (64%) pay cut in today’s dollars. They painted what GAO Analysts do as being a unique “trade or occupation.” They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned the fact a) that I had worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year, b) that much of what IRS Revenue Officers do is similar to what GAO Analysts do, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They were furious a) that I suffered a pay cut of only $20,361/year (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer and b) that I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 unused sick days.)
