The Fatal Mind Rot of DEI

Sponsored by: Patriot Home Funding

Yesterday afternoon, I turned on the Sugar Bowl to watch my team, the Georgia Bull Dawgs, take on Notre Dame in the College Football Playoff. Before kickoff, we were subjected to a short video featuring Thomas Wilson, the CEO of the game's title sponsor, Allstate, who said the following, "Wednesday, tragedy struck the New Orleans community." No, Mr. Wilson, a radical Islamic terrorist representing the international terror network ISIS attacked New Orleans in particular and the Christian faith and the United States and its inherent values in general, murdering 14 and injuring dozens of others. 

He also said, "We need to be stronger together, by overcoming an addiction to divisiveness and negativity." No, Mr. Wilson, we need to refocus and dedicate ourselves to defeating the violent mind rot of radical Islam and get our law enforcement and intelligence communities out of the DEI business, of being the politicized paramilitary and enforcement arm of the democrat party, and back to its legally chartered mission of protecting  all America and its citizens.

He then went on to say, "We need to increase trust and accept peoples' imperfections and differences." No, Mr. Wilson, we do not have an obligation, legal or otherwise, to trust or accept an evil ideology that has been at war with our Judeo-Christian values for millennia. We have an obligation to identify it where it exists and eliminate it. Period. As for accepting people's imperfections and differences, I don't have to like it or accept it, I just have to follow the law and honor legal and God given rights. That is all.

On May 13, 2023, President Joe Biden told the graduating class at Howard University that "White Supremacy is the single most dangerous terrorist threat in our homeland." Really? 

Since Joe Biden was inaugurated in 2021 there have been 36 documented Islamic terror attacks worldwide killing at least 2272 and injuring at least 3343 innocent people, and that does not include the Hamas attacks of October 7, 2023 against Israel or any of the subsequent attacks as part of that conflict.  When I searched for white supremacy terror attacks in the US since Biden was inaugurated, I was unable to find any specific attacks. Instead, I found a lot of white papers from organizations like the Anti-Defamation League, Southern Poverty Law Center, the Brookings Institute, and the FBI itself blaming conservatism for domestic terrorism, but zero instances of white supremacy inspiring a terror attack. In other words, a lot of propaganda. 

Instead of pre-emptively stopping terror attacks like the New Orleans attack, the Boston Marathon bombing, the Pulse nightclub shooting, the New York truck attack, the Las Vegas shooting, among other senseless killings, the FBI has been more worried about kneeling for BLM, hosting DEI seminars, spying on President Trump's campaign, implementing Peter Strzok's "insurance policy," harassing mothers at school board meetings and street preachers trying to save the unborn, spying on Christian churches, hunting down grandmothers who took selfies in the Capitol on January 6, arresting meme posters, and rifling through Melania Trump's lingerie drawer. 

Now we are reminded yet again that the collateral damage in the democrat's and the left's ideological war against white males, conservatives, Christians, "extreme MAGA," and pro-life activists is the lives of innocent Americans who did nothing wrong and instead were just lawfully living their everyday lives and trusting the system to protect them. To say it is a dereliction of duty is an extreme understatement. We are all less safe as a result, and our nation is weaker as a result.

Notice that when Allstate CEO Thomas Wilson speaks of trust, he does not address the implicit trust that we as Americans should be able to have in our institutions to protect and uphold the laws of our nation without regard to political ideology. The power that we as law abiding Americans gave to the institutions to protect and serve us, and this includes CEO's of our nation's biggest business, too, has been abused and radicalized to attack traditional American values, the Christian faith, and meritocracy in our education and business institutions. 

Diversity is not our greatest strength. Our capitalist system of rewarding excellence and innovation, our belief in the rule of law and our constitutional republic, our Judeo-Christian values, and the nuclear family with a father and mother are our strength. For at least 12 out of the past 16 years, our federal government has been at odds with its mission and its people, and we are poorer and less safe as a result. And because politics is downstream from culture, our corporations have followed suit.   

Funny, but I was watching Congress this morning and the first two things they did upon convening was say a prayer and recite the pledge of allegiance. Perhaps if we did that every day when our schools, we'd have fewer problems.

On November 5th, We the People spoke loud and clear that we reject DEI and the ineptitude it fosters, corruption in our agencies, and social justice engineering in our schools and companies. In 17 days, President Trump and his administration will undertake the mammoth task of rooting out the ideological corruption in our government institutions, but that is only part of the task at hand. The other part falls to us, as citizens, consumers, shareholders, and stakeholders. We have to speak loudly with our dollars and proxy votes and let corporate America know that we reject the mind rot and demand a return to meritocracy and exceptionalism. 

Stand up and make your voice heard, because if you don't, people like Joe Biden and Thomas Wilson will speak for you.
