CIA Wokeness
Michael Tracey writes about a weird CIA video that is making the rounds (emphasis added):
In a mind-blowing marketing video first published on March 25, but which had escaped widespread notice until recent days, the CIA enthusiastically endorsed several key tenets of what has now indisputably become a hegemonic left/liberal ideological and rhetorical construct:
“I am a woman of color,” the video’s protagonist, an unnamed CIA officer, triumphantly proclaims. “I am a cisgender millennial who’s been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. I am intersectional, but my existence is not a box-checking exercise.”
She continues, “I used to struggle with imposter syndrome. But at 36, I refuse to internalize misguided patriarchal ideas of what a woman can or should be. I am tired of feeling like I’m supposed to apologize for the space I occupy.”
I have to admit that I do not know what the words in bold are supposed to mean. (Nor does my Firefox spellchecker. It flags them.)
I also do not understand the italicized phrases.
To me they sounds like utter bullshit.
But if the CIA wants to hire more such people I am all for it. Folks who can not leave their personal issues at the door typically muck up their workplace and create productivity problems.
A less effective CIA will be a plus for the rest of the world.
I got nothing for that slippery cia shit cos a move like this was inevitable. Especially since contrary to right & ersatz leftist tosh there is nothing in the least ‘left’ about wokeism despite the line in nonsense some woke fools peddle.
Socialism – and there is no other type of thinkin that is even vaguely *leftist*, is about solidarity by unity, that is gettin everyone to stand together, which is the opposite of the woke shit, a ruling class construct explicitly designed to keep all us ordinary humans against each other arguing over rally divisive & heartfelt (on both sides) issues.
Of course this empire’s jesuits were gonna play the woke card as wokism has become the lingua franca of the bourgeoisie and those corrupt, sociopathic & wannabe intelligentsia who run that corrupt cia organisation understand that if they want to do whatever it takes to keep amerika the boss and the USD the reserve as is, amerika’s middle class must believe they are *doin good* even when they aren’t.
It will work too, millennials were the bourgeois losers in 2008, they have slowly begun to get their heads above water , that shock was enough, they now in the same place as their Gen X parents, if via a different route. The gen-X’s were got onside by seeing how much consumerist shit they could own from the family silver gettin all financialised, the millennials have been forced onside by copping a taste of how bad it gets if amerika isn’t screwing the rest of the world to the max – at least amerika’s steel fist is all about women, anti-racism, lbtq & appreciates how tough it is for an indoctrinated into the current flash, human, to work in this ugly world. No need to be ugly while yer acting ugly eh! Uh no, if yer acting ugly you are ugly. Trouble is those fools don’t see that.
So we can all get a few laughs outta the baseness of that commercial, but I’ve got no doubt it will bring around the AOC voting fools who cannot understand her stance on fighting against the abolition of the SALT cap is exactly that, a stance, AOC has been given permission to jump up and down like a real lefty should on an issue that is gonna be just fine with or without her.
AOC will object to every rich fuck in amerika haveing their tax bill slashed, but it won’t make a blind bit of difference, the cap will go anyway, bidet cannot risk losing his infrastructure bill over an issues the voters have been so gaslit about they don’t understand what it means – even if they’ve heard about it – which thanks to corporate media, they have not.
Actually bidet is pulling the same stunt his support for waiving patents on covid vaccines is prolly a scam.
“The United States had been a major holdout at the World Trade Organization over a proposal to suspend some of the world economic body’s intellectual property protections, which could allow drugmakers across the globe access to the closely guarded trade secrets of how the viable vaccines have been made. But President Biden had come under increasing pressure to throw his support behind the proposal, drafted by India and South Africa and backed by many congressional Democrats.
Katherine Tai, the United States trade representative, announced the administration’s position on Wednesday afternoon, as the pandemic continues to spiral in India and South America.
“This is a global health crisis, and the extraordinary circumstances of the Covid-19 pandemic call for extraordinary measures,” she said in a statement. “The administration believes strongly in intellectual property protections, but in service of ending this pandemic, supports the waiver of those protections for Covid-19 vaccines.”
Support from the White House is not a guarantee that a waiver will be adopted. The European Union has also been standing in the way, and changes to international intellectual property rules require unanimous agreement .”
As I understand it that EU support will also require unanimity. All it would take would be a Poland or a Hungary to say “Hell no we’re not gonna back that communist shit” and the EU wouldn’t be able to vote in favour of voiding patents at the WTO. Many euros in say, germany or france, will get angry but this isn’t an issue that will hang around too long in europe because it isn’t going to be them whose parents die.
The poles or hungarians or whoever will do as amerika secretly tells ’em to. amerika gets to make the billions and doesn’t cop the blame.
this is the style of the bidet administration – not that creepy old joe would have a clue one way or the other.
