LZ have someone you know read your post back to you and report back.

Ideally your therapist.

I had to do one of those stupid online courses last week, and amongst other things (some of which are good, valid points):

Positive discrimination is a myth.

If I interview a minority background candidate, if I don't pass them, I am racist.


With that inconsistency, they lost my attention, and lost any legitimacy of the other valid points that were raised.

          Unfortunately that’s so very true, you’re shitting yourself if you find something unsuitable for the position the minority applicant has applied for. I say this with no malice at all. And certainly none to Liz.

There used to be such a thing as merit.

Long gone now, as diversity and inclusion kicked it's arse in a game of top trumps.

That's a lot of the problems of management teams the world over. There are people in high positions who are either unsuited or unable to do the jobs that they were hired for, as they were appointed to tick a diversity / gender / anything else you can think of, box. Meanwhile, others with the actual skills to do said jobs are passed over.

I am right wing

Christ. I wonder what your view of left wing is

 

 

All I can say is that the likes of Jeremy Corbyn,  Dianne Abbot, Tony Benn, and the like are drippy left wingers with completely opposite views to mine.  I went through a few Personality Profile tests at work and was given a rating to the right of Attila The Hun!! I certainly was known for taking no prisoners in business and never automatically saying "Yes" in answer to the directors wishes,  as I had to be tough to get results:

However I am a right winger who tries to compromise, which although difficult can be done, currently with the so called wokiness circulating.

I do believe in a strong national security force, in terms of military and the police, with punishments for crime dished out to a far more severe level than they are now. I would welcome back the death penalty. 

I however, would always try and avoid the repeat of the tragic circumstances that led to the wars of the 20th century, and stop meddling in other, Middle Eastern, nations affairs.  But if we HAVE to fight for democracy and freedom as we know it now, then so be it.

So, there you are that is a taste of my right wing views for what it matters now as I get older and hopefully more wise!

So that is what you think, and so what you do not agree with me.  I know exactly what I am saying and it is my view

These days facts, in whatever form they take, are largely irrelevant.

Lived experience is the new God on the left.

You hear people like Meghan the manipulator talking about 'my truth' as opposed to 'the truth'......which means she is a fibber.  

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Poor old Harry.

He is like a lost puppy. If Meghan tells him the world is flat he'll go along with it.

In which case Girl, you best get your tush over to Gran Canaria pronto, because you clearly haven't seen much
