BIZ PAC REVIEW
— Verizon’s divisive ‘justice’ program reportedly goes all in, says white ‘oppressors’ must seek ‘lifelong’ atonement – Vivek Saxena (COMMENT: How soon, if not already, will your employer if you are still employed, the organizations that you are a member of, and the government entities that you are under require you to do what Verizon requires its employees to do? I should write a book about those who are seeking lifelong atonement by doing everything that they can a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading those letters. I would focus on leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, etc.)
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2021/08/26/verizons-divisive-justice-program-reportedly-goes-all-in-says-white-oppressors-must-seek-lifelong-atonement-1124736/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Like the CRT initiatives established by other American corporations, Verizon’s initiative is divided into training modules, starting with the customary introduction module — called the “Conscious Inclusion & Anti-Racism” module in Verizon’s case — in which employees must fess up to their alleged privileges. “Employees are asked to list their ‘race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, religion, education, profession, and sexual orientation’ on an official company worksheet,” Rufo revealed in a report published Wednesday. Employees are then asked to essentially rank themselves based on the “intersectional” hierarchy. “Intersectionality” is a foundational CRT principle that classifies people into a hierarchy based on their race, their religion, their gender, their sexuality, etc. CRT zealots claim whites, Asians, Christians, heterosexual people, etc., are at the top of the hierarchy because of their alleged “privilege.” Yet it’s the people at the bottom of the hierarchy — blacks, gays, etc. — who appear to benefit from the most privileges and perks such as affirmative action. For instance, Verizon’s “woke” training demands that those at the top of the hierarchy commit to a “lifelong process” of seeking “accountability with marginalized individuals.” In other words, they — the alleged “oppressors” — must spend the rest of their lives kissing the butts of the alleged “oppressed.”)
