My management class has stuff on the syllabus about diversity, does AmRen or anything have articles on diversity in the workplace or anyone have anything off the tops of their heads?

2018-08-27 17:47:36 UTC  

Book of the day if anyone’s looking for a new read

@EverlastingTuck actually picked that book up last week. Haven't gotten the chance to read it yet.

2018-08-27 17:49:17 UTC  

It’ll make you feel like a sissy boy compared to our cavemen ancestors but it’s interesting

2018-08-27 17:50:27 UTC  

@fgtveassassin are you looking for stats or just arguments against diversity?

2018-08-27 17:52:57 UTC  

Gave culture of critique another read. Really good stuff and I recommend anyone who hasn't read it give it a try.

2018-08-27 17:55:39 UTC  

Pretty much everywhere i search, diversity in the workplace is "good" (for the "diverse" of course).

2018-08-27 17:55:49 UTC  

@TV arguments against, decreased motivation/productivity etc. Thanks @Asatru Artist - MD , mind DMing so I can check it out later and doesn't get lost ?

2018-08-27 17:56:33 UTC  

Done

2018-08-27 17:57:44 UTC  

@fgtveassassin read Jared Taylor's book White Identity if you haven't already. It gives many examples of diversity making things worse.

2018-08-27 18:23:57 UTC  

Will do

2018-08-27 18:25:13 UTC  

I've been fighting the diversity gustapo at work. I don't attack diversity directly, the brainwashing is too deep and just causes knee jerk reactions. Every time diversity is brought up I drive home that it is what we hold in common that strengthens the organization (in my case patient care)

2018-08-27 18:25:52 UTC  

I then incorporate buzz words in a negative context.

2018-08-27 18:26:18 UTC  

And our terminology in a positive one.

2018-08-27 18:26:30 UTC  

Is that an L or an i before the 1

2018-08-27 18:27:21 UTC  

Can't on mobile i don't think unless I'm a boomer

2018-08-27 18:27:29 UTC  

So "we need a homogeneous culture of patient care"

2018-08-27 18:28:08 UTC  

You can hold on the message and select copy text. Might them need to paste it somewhere to get rid of the extra stuff other than the email address.

2018-08-27 18:28:39 UTC  

and "diverse approaches will increase confusion and lead to an increase in mistakes"

2018-08-27 18:29:53 UTC  

"One culture of care, don't let our diversity tear us down"

2018-08-27 18:30:13 UTC  

Actual quotes lol

2018-08-27 18:30:18 UTC  

Using their own terms against them. 👌

2018-08-27 18:31:31 UTC  

I suspect all the admins hate me, but using the right approach everyone is forced to be on board.

2018-08-27 18:34:31 UTC  

Everyone please welcome our newest member @Rabbidsith!

2018-08-27 18:34:33 UTC  

It may be small, but it is therapeutic for me and I hope it plants seeds for later. I take every opportunity I can to frame the language of "the narrative" in a negative context and ours in a positive.

2018-08-27 18:34:42 UTC  

Welcome!

2018-08-27 18:34:42 UTC  

Thanks.

2018-08-27 18:36:41 UTC  

Utah is getting a lot of new members lately. HuWhite bastion of good people confirmed.

2018-08-27 18:36:58 UTC  

Indeed. This state is mostly white and I don't want to see that end.

2018-08-27 18:37:44 UTC  

People here are unfathomably polite to a degree that I have never seen in more "diverse" areas.

2018-08-27 18:37:45 UTC  

I have a lot of good memories in Utah, peak Implicity

2018-08-27 18:38:54 UTC  

Perhaps. I am not a Mormon. However, just so that you know, the church's influence is in considerable decline as of late.

2018-08-27 18:39:32 UTC  

Utah also has unparalleled natural beauty. National parks for days

2018-08-27 18:40:27 UTC  

Indeed. I went into the mountains about a month ago and I was stunned at the natural beauty. You know the 1950's advertisements about camping? The trees are perfectly triangular in that same fashion.

2018-08-27 18:41:49 UTC  

Fields of flowers as far as the eye can see, nearly vertical rock faces, and waterfalls just off the trail.

2018-08-27 18:42:18 UTC  

@Bjorn - MD It is very nice. If you've never been, I would recommend going there.

2018-08-27 18:43:22 UTC  

If you're into rock climbing, check out "God's thumb".

2018-08-27 18:43:30 UTC  

I lived in Utah for a few years as a kid. Beautiful state.

2018-08-27 18:43:56 UTC  

@Bjorn - MD Hopefully. I hope to move to the pacific Northwest soon though.
