My apologies, @Tonight at 11 - DOOM; that's for you, @Eccles.

And yes, identitarianism is quite the cancer, @Jun.

Imagine being more ideologically attached to your unrelated neighbor of similar skin colour to you, then to your 'mixed-race' kid AND thinking that makes sense from a ethno-nationalist perspective. It's literally retarded.

I'll second your idea of a serum.

👏

Pump it into the water supplies.

Are we the Roman Empire at its peak?

And about to collapse?

Let's do it.

Settle down, Stefan.

Leftists already want us to have Anti depressors in our water supplies.

Let's give them a taste of their own medicine.

God, I hate molymeme

If everyone is white... Everyone is privileged.

This is from the said news, what do you think about this statement?

``` There is a science to putting together the right minds, with perspectives that challenge, augment, diverge and cross-pollinate rather than parrot, corroborate and restrict. This is set to become a key source of competitive advantage for organisations, not to mention security agencies. This is how wholes become more than the sum of their parts.```

I think it's a meme unworthy of discussing

Problem i think is that too often people who are prone to tell others how to handle their "diverse thoughts" are not too keen to employ the said process themselves.

This might apply here too.

That's a rather ambiguous quote you've shared with us, @Omsomething. The question of who is claiming to have superiority over "challenging, augmenting, diverging and cross-pollinating" is important.

I'm guessing that came from a leftist outlet? Did you pull it from that BBC article?

That quote is from the news i linked above.

Alright, I thought so.

I mean, who wouldn't want a tranny for an Intelligence Officer and Field Agent?

To me it seemed rather important one, since it was in a news article in BBC with the said tittle.

To me it seems like author might be understanding something in others while all the while missing something about themselves.

To be honest if i wanted to be safe from exteme furry terrorists i might want few of the agents monitoring them to be light furries.

The thing is about BBC is their articles on subjects of expertise are -never- written by people with expertise

I won't disagree with the fact there's an understanding individuals from a particular group would inherently possess, as it relates to the mindset of those they're part of. That's a given. You can gleam a great deal of insight from someone with experience, rather than one looking in from a glass door.

I wonder if intelligence agencies have some sort of 'containment task-forces' for people whose special understanding they need but who they just do not trust due to other reasons.

I suppose that would depend on the country of reference and agency.

In the U.S., investigations toward acquiring clearance can go on for as long as they require, even while you're already serving in whatever capacity required said clearance. 😉

You also go through renewals.

Hah, how cunning. Being an transgender/whatever agent might lead to really fun loops of paranoia now that i think about it.

That's the loophole, stretching out the timeframe for the clearance investigation.

Perhaps.

I'd expect this to be the case for any other agency, but they'll all vary in what they're looking for.

I hear the SIS is sifting for Haram already. 😂
