Diversity Thursday

As we've discussed before, in 2012 the Diversity Industry is about two things.

1. Grievance mongers who counter their feelings of inadequacy through racial hate.
2. Need for a paycheck.

Here we have a perfect example of #2. This is really pathetic - but you paid for it, so soak it in.

How any of these people expect anyone to take their job seriously, I have no idea - but - being that they are using tax-payer money to actively discriminate on the basis of national origin; I guess we have to take them seriously.
