RACIST DEI training tells white firefighters that they are a problem.

I couldn't make this shit up if I tried. Stephen King couldn't make this shit up.

DEI training suspended after telling firefighters that White staff have caused 'racial harm': report

A diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) program targeted at firefighters and medics in King County, Washington, was suspended after backlash from employees, according to a report Tuesday.

"Critics, including several King County firefighters, challenged the training’s political undertones and its potential infringement on personal beliefs, particularly regarding gender identity," radio host Jason Rantz revealed in a report. "The training’s failure could jeopardize participants’ EMT certifications, demanding acknowledgment of endless genders and an inherent racial bias among White staff."

The report detailed instructions in the DEI training for white firefighters and medics to check their racist tendencies.

This is where liberalism/Nazism slams up against the hard wall of reality

A house owned by a black family is on fire. The fire truck shows up and very very brave men and women are prepared to RISK THEIR LIVES to put out that fire and save the residents.
And in Washington State, some say that the skin color of those firefighters is an issue.

And you wonder why everyone says liberals are racist, uneducated morons.

So they wouldn't display overt racism to members of the public during an emergency call out 👍 But the majority of a firefighter's paid time will be spent training or waiting around in their workplace. And it is in these environments that racism, sexism or any other behaviour that diminishes or disrespects colleagues or members of the public becomes an issue. Just as it would for any other worker.

@SunshineGirl So basically you are saying all employees everywhere when they have a little down time are in need of racism, sexism, and disrespect training . Such BS the only thing we need everywhere is a little attention to the golden rule, that is treat people as you would like people to treat you and everything will be ok. It is very disrespectful when instead of dealing with a person or persons who have an issue with race or sex that you treat the whole group that way.

@SunshineGirl LOL... BS. Get your mind off race for just a moment. People are people. Focus on that. Hiring based on skin color is just wrong. Why can't liberals understand that? MLK's teachings have been completely forgotten by the left of center crowd.

@Johnson212 It's a workplace. Most well run workplaces, especially those that are publicly funded, have policies to discourage discrimination.

@SunshineGirl Yes that is fine to have policy discouraging these things, what many object to is it goes past that to mandatory training of all employees as if they are all guilty of something.

@SunshineGirl Yeah, that’s what we did…spent time practicing racism sexism and disrespect( you mean indoctrination) training is fire/ emergency related. You paint with a broad brush lady but reading your post I’m not surprised.
