Bill Ayers answered, sincerely, that they’d probably have to kill 10% of the population in order to get everyone to comply.
I’m facing major push back at work, a defense contractor.
Every two or three weeks, HR publishes employee profiles of courage, diversity, etc.
A man who leaves his wife and four children under the age of ten for another man - yeah, the workplace is so supportive of my coming out! I said this wasn’t an example to emulate and I felt sorry for his wife, and kids under the age of ten have no freaking clue what Daddy meant about anything except wanting to be happy.
A guy talks about his minor son coming out as gay and now, still minor, transgender. He asked for advice. I said mental counseling, because he probably wants to become a woman because the boys he’s attracted to aren’t attracted to him - and they need counseling whose solution isn’t surgery and hormones for a mental health issue.
They post profiles on transgender employees, men in dresses, women in suits who use the men’s bathroom. The violation of real women’s privacy isn’t allowed, even when said “woman” says it is lesbian (man still attracted to women but in a dress to use women’s bathroom”. Stating that a man in a dress shouldn’t be at the women’s tech luncheon is “transphobic” and discriminatory.
The company actually held a seminar called “What white men really think”. A man with a gay son and thus changed his views on homosexuality, a guy who realizes diversity is so important to make up for the sins of his ancestors, it was essentially a re-education session to say “all your traditional views are BAD, see, all your friends agree with us”.
My only grace, I am female, so I had more leeway than men in complaining about these matters. HR’s biggest headache was the sexual harassment charges I had to bring up on the “transgender” male, because it HAD to have validation from the only female in the work group, and I didn’t recognize it as such, hence endless harassment.
