Summary
Federal employees have been directed to report colleagues in diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) roles within 10 days or face unspecified “adverse consequences.”
The directive follows a Trump executive order eliminating DEIA programs in federal agencies, which the administration claims “divided Americans by race.”
Employees were warned about disguised DEIA roles using "coded or imprecise language.”
Good ol “communist” tactics. Snitch on your neighbours, snitch on your family. Loyalty to the party.
A certain expression comes to mind: “They hate us cuz they ain’t us”.
Starting to make sense nowadays…
Well, actually, the Nazis called it “Machtergreifung” and this is exactly the playbook Trump follows.
They hate you because you’re poor
They’ll hate me even if I was rich, instead they’ll love my money.
My favorite part is the US government, with its massive intelligence agencies, is trying to shake down its employees to discover their own org chart.
Says a bit about the potency of those intelligence agencies, maybe? Or the vigor with which these policies will be pursued - or lack thereof. I dunno.
Don’t be naive and think this is actually about getting information and not a way to find out who’s willing to fuck over their coworkers and kiss Der Furher 's ass-ring
True, got a point.
This screams illegal to me too. Like hey email to this weird government email the names of ‘collaborators’ so we can punish them. Tell us first and you’re good. Hide it and we’re coming after you.
Sounds like Germany 1939 or something.
Or like the US in the 50s and 60s…
True! Wait. This guys a COMMUNIST! Where my list…
It’s only illegal if they don’t have the courts on their side.
The SCOTUS can “interpret” a challenged Jay walking law as “well this clearly says the President can order the killing of all the minorities with abandon” and that’s it, no recourse short of physically fighting and dying to them.
And that’s where we’re at. The Federalist Society that began under Reagan was a slow moving coup.
The framers slept in on Checks on the Judicial day. An impossibly high senate impeachment bar. For that reason and more, our constitution needs to collapse and we need a new one, one that treats practiced greed, ie pursuing many times more than what your fellow citizens live on, as the central threat to society that it is.
fuckin make me
Hmm… “My department is fortunate that we didn’t need to make any DEI hires” Seems an easy enough response when questioned.
Is this about DEI hires or workers whose jobs are to ensure their hiring practices promote diversity, equality, and inclucivity? I took it to mean that if Susie in HR has a job description that includes anything about diversity in hiring, federal workers are supposed to rat on Susie or face consequences. Not on the folks who maybe arguably were hired because their presence increase diversity, equality, and/or inclucivity.

They’ll just start firing minorities next. In fact, they’ll start now, I’m guessing. This is what the idiots and biggots voted for.
How would they even know? Isn’t that protected information?
