  • policies relating to “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (“DEi”) and “diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility” (“DEIA”) “violate the text and spirit of our longstanding Federal civil-rights laws” and “undermine our national unity.”

    Thank God for Lemmy. Reading this made me feel like I was taking crazy pills until seeing your guys’s comments. These people are straight up going full 1984 “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

    Alien: Greetings, human. I am Zorkon of the Galaxotron Empire. We have come to conquer your planet and enslave humanity. Bow before our superior might!

    Human: [laughs] Oh, Zorkon, you crack me up! Conquer us? Enslave us? Ha! That’s a good one.

    Alien: I don’t understand. Why are you laughing? This is a serious invasion!

    Human: Oh, I get it. But really, your timing couldn’t be worse. We’re already dealing with wildfires, melting ice caps, never-ending politics, and—have you seen our to-do lists? They’re terrifying!

    Alien: But we have advanced technology! We will strip your planet of its natural resources!

    Human: Strip our planet of natural resources? Newsflash, we’ve been doing that ourselves. Timber, oil, coal—you name it!

    Alien: We will poison your water and pollute your air!

    Human: Poison our water? Pollute our air? Ever heard of industrial waste and smog? We’ve got that covered, thanks.

    Alien: We will make you work until you are old and frail!

    Human: Make us work till we’re old? We call that ‘retirement age’ around here. By then, we’re barely standing anyway.

    Alien: Our rule will be harsh! You will live in fear and despair!

    Human: Fear and despair? Welcome to the 21st century, Zorkon. We’ve been binge-watching those since 2016. Honestly, if you’re here to conquer, you might want to bring a sense of humor. You’re gonna need it!

    Alien: [confused] Perhaps we should have researched this planet a bit more…
