Useless Stanford Law School Diversity Dean Who Encouraged Protest of Federal Judge Ousted

Stanford Law School no longer employs their diversity administrator who had joined students last March in protest of a sitting federal judge [H/T The Washington Free Beacon].

"I write to share that Tirien Steinbach has decided [yeah, sure] that she will be leaving her role as Associate Dean for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Stanford Law School to pursue another opportunity," Jenny Martinez, the law school's dean, wrote in an email on Thursday. 

Steinbach is rumored to be looking for work as a urinal cake installer in a unisex washroom in Sheboygan, WI, a career she is highly qualified to undertake.

"Although Associate Dean Steinbach intended to de-escalate the tense situation when she spoke at the March 9 event, she recognizes that the impact of her statements was not as she hoped or intended."

Steinbach had seized the podium from Kyle Duncan, a judge on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and, in a video that went viral on social media, lambasted the conservative jurist for causing "harm" because he doesn't rule the way Steinbach would like.

"Do you have something so incredibly important to say," she asked, that it is worth the "division of these people?" She went on to tell him that he had to weigh whether the "juice [was] worth the squeeze," a rather cocky turn of a phrase to someone whose is clearly her intellectual superior. 

Steinbach also commended the hecklers—one of whom allegedly told Duncan, "We hope your daughters get raped"—telling the students that she was "glad" to see the protest happening. In a conversation with students after the event, she blamed Duncan, not herself, for the verbally aggressive meltdown and obviously hoped for the outcome she pretended afterward that she didn't want.

Have you noticed how the left is intolerant of the right asserting their opinions and legal rulings, but when the shoe is on the other foot, they're the most obvious hypocrites around.

Though Martinez did not say outright Steinbach had been fired, her email implied that Stanford forced the diversity dean out over the Duncan event, and anyone who pays attention to these events, are fairly certain that she was given her walking papers.

Minutes after the Martinez email went out, Steinbach wrote to the school separately to address her departure. "The honor I feel to have held this role," she said, "is undiminished by the circumstances surrounding the event with Judge Duncan."

She deserves to be fired for the disgusting display of insensitive, and illegal behavior she had shown.

FDNY needs more diversity: wants to change that "problem"

New York lawmakers announced new legislation that would require the Fire Department of New York to hire more women and minority fire persons. They did not, however, include "little people" as part of the diversity push and this has many little people [formerly known as 'midgets'] very upset.

The decisions comes after a number of lawsuits against the agency had been filed.

The legislation requires the FDNY to develop and implement a plan by March 1st to ensure firefighters “reflect that of the city’s population as a whole.” Currently, more than three-quarters of firefighters are white men, and less than 1% are women with a zero little person representation.

The package would also broaden transparency requirements within the department, while mandating the FDNY survey each firehouse to identify facility upgrades needed to achieve a safe environment for a mixed-gender workforce. In other words, people who identify as women [whatever that is] would have a separate bathroom and locker area from the men. People who are women who identify as men and men who identify as women would also be accommodated by allowing them to use whichever locker room and toilet facility they want to regardless of the level of discomfort normal fire fighters experience.

The bills follow several other legislative attempts to solve the agency’s diversity "problems" – a threat not just to equity, but to the “fundamental safety of all New Yorkers,” according to Council Speaker Adrienne Adams [no relation to Mayor Eric Adams].

“The credibility of our agencies is connected to their being reflective of those they serve,” Adams said at a hearing on Monday. “And the FDNY is a pivotal agency to public safety.”

Dr. Jordan Peterson blasts Sports Illustrated over obese covergirl swimsuit issue

Dr. Jordan Peterson responded on Twitter to a New York Post headline about Sports Illustrated's 2022 Swimsuit Issue featuring an obese woman model named Yumi Nu as its covergirl.

Sorry. Not beautiful. And no amount of authoritarian tolerance is going to change that. https://t.co/rOASeeQvee

— Dr Jordan B Peterson (@jordanbpeterson)

Admittedly, Nu has a pretty face, albeit somewhat large. But to put overweight women in the annual Swimsuit edition and virtue signal how woke they are, SI has made young men throughout the land quite distraught.

Peterson voiced his objection in response to a Twitter user whose entire life centers around finding something to criticize online. Peterson responded to the loser thusly:

It's a conscious progressive attempt to manipulate & retool the notion of beauty, reliant on the idiot philosophy that such preferences are learned & properly changed by those who know better (see https://t.co/RLOu4wlNM6)(https://t.co/tUzihxdXOl) but don't let the facts stop you. https://t.co/90uEnV6DL3

— Dr Jordan B Peterson (@jordanbpeterson) May 16, 2022

The links in his tweet are two studies: the first from a 1998 study in Infant Behavior and Development showing that babies focus on faces judged to be more attractive by adults. In the second 2009 study published in Evolution and Human Behavior, it found that more attractive women had more children than less attractive ones, such as overweight women and men who identify as women, and the least attractive men sired fewer children than every other group of men, who had about the same number of children. This may indicate that physical attractiveness may be related to reproductive success rates.

Peterson was responding to a New York Post interview with Nu, who will be one of the covergirls on the 2022 Swimsuit Issue as will Kim Kardashian, singer Ciara, and Maye Musk, Elon's mom.

The 25-year-old Nu is of Dutch and Japanese ancestry and is the granddaughter of Rocky Aoki the Benihana chain of restaurants founder. Perhaps Nu spent a lot of time testing the product as a child.

In the interview, Nu spoke of her excitement at the opportunity to be on the cover of a men's sports magazine and described herself as a champion of body and race diversity, a subliminal way of saying that she's fat, not white, and proud of it.

She was not asked about her overall health such as blood pressure, diabetes situation, and her ability to walk without getting out of breath. She did, however, express her delight over being chosen to represent the sports magazine's new take on their definition of beauty.

“It’s amazing. I’m on cloud nine,” she told the Post. “This is nothing I could prepare for. It’s unexpected. I feel like we’re in a place right now where people are making space for more diversity on magazine covers. It’s a big time for Asian-American people in media. I know I play a big role in representation in body diversity and race diversity, and I love to be a role model and representative of the plus-size Asian community.”

Let's consider her comments:

Nu said that being chosen is nothing she could prepare for, but that isn't completely true. Nu has spent 25 years preparing, but she was unaware that her eating habits were going to put her on a sports magazine cover. Sure, it may have been unexpected, but that was before the world got woke. 

The magazine also includes a number of race and body diversity firsts: the first breast cancer survivor; the first indigenous woman, a NASA physicist; a woman showing her C-section scar; a woman with four belly buttons; a woman with eczema; and a woman with a penis.

In terms of diversity, the concept is a load of bull plop.

Why doesn't Sports Illustrated have people like Brian Stelter and Michael Moore on the Swimsuit Edition? You want diverse, that would really be diverse and show the world that a woman can be anything, except if you're a biologist and know the truth.

The Left ruins everything.

Systemic racism debuts at Columbia U

Columbia University Diversity Squad is planning to host 85 additional graduation ceremonies for students according to: 

skin color, country of origin, parents' skin color taken individually, height, religion, family income level, political party [if Republican, their graduation will be cancelled and need not read any further], hobbies, ethnicity, and how they identify sexually, and other factors such as body type, hair color, preferred language and penis length [for both men and transgender men], Latinx, Latinz, LGBRIAQ+other ridiculous fantasies.

The total graduation ceremonies are expected to take four days to complete and will be done online due to COVID-19.

It's unclear when the separate ceremonies were announced, but Sunday was the deadline for nominating individuals in Columbia College, Columbia Engineering and General Studies for the "Multicultural Affairs Graduation Cords."  Parents with separate computers are encouraged to go online.

1968: students take-over

White people will not be "attending" this group of ceremonies as they are racists and homophobes, even if they don't agree, [especially if they don't agree], but will have a lesser ceremony on April 30, but only if they have Windows Vista on their computers.

The Columbia faculty admits that if the graduation ceremony was designed to include mostly White and Asian students, they would have notified BLM and Antifa to have them handle the outcome.

Now that's what I call systemic racism.

Gay parent denied spot on San Francisco school board advisory council due to his whiteness

It isn't good enough to just be gay nowadays if you hoped to advance your career. Intersectionality only gives gay guys half a point for that sexual preference. If you're gay, you need to have more victimhood creds, like being a gay, black, handicapped Mexican Muslim midget and you are guaranteed to go places with the cancel culture vultures.

The San Francisco Unified School District's Board of Education denied a gay guy a spot on the advisory board because he's White and lacks sufficient melanin to make the cut.

If this isn't a blatant act of racism, then there's no such thing.

Seth Brenzel, a gay parent, was slated to be appointed to the Parent Advisory Council at Tuesday's board meeting, but it never happened, KGO-TV reported.

The board rejected him over his skin color, the outlet said.

The makeup of the all women PAC is:

Three Latinas
Three Whites
Two Blacks
One Asian
One Pacific Islander

School Board Commissioner Alison Collins, a straight woman with a significant melanin level causing her to be Black, strongly advocated that the council — which advises the board on issues that affect students and parents — needed to be more racially diverse, the station said.

Alison Collins

"In a district that has so many monolingual families and specifically so many Chinese-speaking families, this is not OK to me," Collins noted, according to KGO.

About 33% of SFUSD students are Asian, 28% are Latino, 15% are white, and 6% are black, the station said.

So why is there only one Asian on the board and why is there a Pacific Islander? Not that I believe there needs to be a balance, but that seems to be the thinking on the left because everything they think is tied to race.

You want diversity? Why not a man on the board? 

Diversity is clearly overrated.

American University staff and students call for minority-only safe spaces

The students and staff at American University (AU) want "the creation of more spaces for students of color." They believe minority students should have an area on campus where they don't have to deal with white people because there must be something wrong with us. [I am white, my wife is a woman of color and does not agree with AU for some reason.] The school wants an area where minority people can go to be separate from "whitey" in the name of "diversity and inclusion," which absolutely proves the left has everything backwards. [e.g., men are women; women are men; Antifa is anti fascist.]

The racist students are upset with the school's Hub for Organizing Multiculturalism and Equity (HOME) for being "marketed to students of all backgrounds rather than students of color."

It looks like they don't have a clue about what the word "diversity" means. They apparently want revenge on this generation for the generations preceding them.

“HOME doesn’t provide people with a sense of security, with a sense of belonging, when everyone from all types of affinity groups can be there,” said Othniel Malcolm Andrew Harris to AU’s student newspaper, sounding like one of those folks from GLAAD who sees everything in terms of homophobia or sexism, or the #MeToo movement, who thinks every woman is to be believed, every man is to be considered a likely sexual predator, and old Christmas songs are rape culture material.

AU’s student newspaper goes on to say that many students also called for the university to “create a black house” in response to racist incidents on campus.

Yes, segregation will definitely promote harmony and understanding--look at history and just see how that worked out.

Progressives, or leftists, get everything backwards and the scary thing is, they run the academia.

Not enough diversity at Dunkirk to suit Diversity Nazis

Photo: Beat Street

A movie by Christopher Nolan is being attacked because it is accurately portraying history, Heat Street reports.

Yes, rather than fallaciously depicting history the way the diversity Nazis would like it to be, Nolan's latest movie Dunkirk,  accurately recreates the defense and evacuation of Allied and British forces from Northern France during the start of World War II.  

The movie is set for release July 21st and stars Mark Rylance, Jack Lowden and Harry Styles, all white guys.

Racists have taken to social media saying they'll boycott the movie because it's "too white" like the huge majority of British and Allied forces at that time.
One tweeter twit, Yasmin Salahuddin (@iamfindingmeeno) tweeted:

"Dunkirk or: let's put all the attractive, white, British males in one movie."

With a name like 'Yasmin, she would evidently like to have more Middle Eastern men, blacks, Chinese and Hispanics in the flick, but that wasn't how it went down. But, on a positive note, she didn't insist they shout "Allahu Akbar" when they engaged the enemy.

At least she found the white guys attractive.

Another racist twit tweeted: 

"What comes to mind when I see the trailer for Dunkirk? A boring movie with a bunch of white dudes. #nothanks

        -Steph I Runs Trails (@stephrunstrails)

Most people actually don't care that Steph runs trails or anything about Steph's life, but evidently the first thing that strikes Steph about the trailer is the lack of diversity in the fighting at Dunkirk, history be damned.

Dumb Dolly tweeted: 

"Dunkirk: more proof Hollywood will never run out of movies about white guys doing stuff in WWII."

--Dolly (@loather) [a fitting sobriquet for her].

I guess this is just more proof that facts don't matter to liberals, and they need to invent an acceptable reality that fits their narrative.

The people who fought and those who died at Dunkirk were overwhelmingly white men. People whose first instinct is to address the lack of diversity where it didn't actually exist are the racists they claim others to be, and their need to twist the truth is offensive and harmful.

Activists say Harlem Globetrotters have too many black men on team

Equality activists are pressuring the Harlem Globetrotters to end their reliance on a team saturated with black men.

Diversity "experts" ordered the team to "open their minds" and enlist more white female lesbian and straight shooters, Chinese, Japanese, Hopi Indian, Jewish, Hindu, Jain, gay white men, straight white men, transgender this and thats, Muslim women, Muslim men, gay Muslim men and women, Apaches, Vietnamese 'little people' (a rarity in basketball) and the blind.

Insofar as their white opponents go, The Washington Generals, they need to be allowed to win half the games and the same diversity measures that need to be applied to the Globetrotters must also be applied to them, according to diversity "experts."

"It's ridiculous that the Globetrotters never lose. I mean like what's the point of coming to a game if you already know who's going to win?" Gladys Finklemeister told Brain Flushings reporter Vinny Boombots. 

"And why is everyone on the Globetrotters black? Can't there be a few white people and people of variegated colors playing for them? It's crazy," she said.

The team's sponsor, Inner Mongolia Mengniu Dairy Industry, a manufacturing and distribution company of dairy products in the People's Republic of China, is the official marketing partner of the Harlem Globetrotters. 

Mengniu claims that it's their concern as to how many tickets are sold to the games the team plays, but it isn't their concern to meet diversity quotas and they anticipate no changes in the team's race or sexual orientation.

But social justice warriors aren't giving up so easily. They plan to march outside Globetrotter events until things change and the Washington Generals win one for a change.

New York evidently okay with Illiterate Teachers

So-called education "experts" in New York are planning to get rid of the literacy test they used for evaluating potential public school teachers because it's too hard for them to pass. 

They claim too many non-white individuals (those people without white privilege) fail the test. The problem is that while it may strengthen the literacy of kids in school, it weakens diversity within the profession. In other words, it's more important to have a racial diversity of teachers than it is to have teachers who are literate.

The difficult test in question is designed to measure reading and writing skills, which the layperson not well-versed in what makes a good teacher, often believes is more important than academic skills. In fact, that silly test is known as the Academic Literacy Skills Test,  but don't ask the newly hired teachers next year how to spell it--it's not their job. 

Their job is to be people of diversity. 

Professor of Education at Pace University, Leslie Soodak, served on the task force that made the recommendation. In fact, diversity seems to be her main goal in education of you read her research--Google her name. She says "We want high standards, without a doubt. Not every given test is going to get us there."

No kidding.

The literacy test was introduced in the 2013 - 2014 school year to raise the quality of teaching in New York and weed out the inferior students of education.

Proponents of the reform criticized the quality of students trying to become teachers. In a 2016 National Council on Teacher Quality study, it was found that 44 percent of teacher preparation programs reviewed, accepted people from the bottom half of their high school class.

But the test caused concern when only 46 percent of Hispanic test takers and 41 percent of black test takers were able to pass it on the first attempt, while white students passed it at 64 percent on their first attempt. Naturally, liberals cried "Racism!"

But a federal ruling in 2015 concluded the test was not discriminatory. Still, the liberal education community suggested the test has discrepancies between white people and the minorities.

"Having a white workforce really doesn't match our student body anymore," Soodak lamented, suggesting that she would be willing to undergo a heart transplant from a heart surgeon who passed Surgery 101 on the second try. Or else she doesn't think reading and writing are all that important.

Kate Walsh, president of National Council on Teacher Quality, (a term that is slowly becoming an American oxymoron) supports the literacy test. She claims that minorities tend to score less due to factors such as poverty and the "legacy of racism."

And all along you thought it was poverty that turned out terrorists.

The truth is, minorities score lower in part due to lowered expectations of them by their parents and teachers, and the lack of a stable home environment, in many cases.

According to Walsh, New York became "light years ahead of other states" because of this test, "when it comes to the teacher certification regimen."
