Rat out your non-conformist comrade to The Party’s Commissariat.

[–] RamenJunkie@lemmy.world 17 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

The shitty part is, what does that even mean?

"Hey, they hired a black dude, better report it to the DEI Snitch list."

Its just a weird open invitation for assholery.

[–] yarn@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 hour ago

It reads like they're looking for teams that have cleverly been restructured or renamed to circumvent the order.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Probably just a threat to force conformity. Unless the companies come up with actual disciplinary policy.

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

This wasn't regarding private companies, it was about government agencies. They're asking government employees to rat out other government employees.

[–] RamenJunkie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Except they may have policies that tell them they can't contract with anyone who uses DEInpolicies now.

Which is basically, everyone.

Ah yes the Ministry of Truth over here

Start reporting DEI hires like Amy Coney Barrett and Marco Rubio? Did they give Vivek a position or did they just lead him on? The letter my brother received asking him to rat out his coworkers was sent by a woman, probably a DEI hire.

DUI hires like that hegseth asshole seem like tip top candidates

I can identify some obvious mental disability hires.

Will "suspected of being a DEI" be the new McCarthy witch hunt?

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Are you now or have you every identified as black?

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 hour ago

Remember that white woman who identified as black?

[–] The_Shwa@midwest.social 18 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, these, the immigrant hotlines, and the anti lgbtq+ messaging are the new witch hunts. The same message as before but a little bit louder and a whole lot worse.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

Time to start spinning up autodialers and email spammers. Flood the hotlines with "tips" about MAGAts that annoy you.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 52 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Yeah and?

Of course they're doing this. Expect a WHOLE lot more of this. 50 bucks say that next month everyone will be getting an email urging them to rat out ~~Anne Frank's~~ immigrant hiding places, and failure to do so might earn you a ticket to the same ~~death camp~~ immigrant vacation camp

Its like Trump's government is watching all sorts of WWII documentaries and intensely writing down all the ideas they're getting from it

[–] __nobodynowhere@lemm.ee 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Cleanse the government of non-whites and political enemies

Deport illegals

Imprison illegals who cannot be deported

Imprison transexuals, homosexuals and political enemies

Imprison any non-whites

Final solution

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 hour ago

Imprison any non-whites

That’s like half the country and not logistically possible. The rest though. Ugh.

[–] The_Shwa@midwest.social 10 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

The immigrant hotlines are already open. They're already telling people to rat on their neighbors

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 12 points 5 hours ago

Start reporting households with Trump flags. Especially if they're Trump supporting immigrants. Clog their systems with false reports and 'Leopards ate my face' types.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 44 points 8 hours ago

Actual Nazi shit
