The University of South Florida has adopted radical DEI programming that segregates students by race and promotes the idea that white students should think "I feel bad for being white" and "it's not my fault I’m white" as part of their "racial identity development."

Thread.🧵

I have obtained a trove of public documents exposing USF's radical DEI programming, much of which, according to the Wayback Machine, the university tried to delete from its website following Florida governor Ron DeSantis's recent request for information about university DEI.

The first step in this programming is the condemnation of American society. Following the death of George Floyd, nearly every appendage of USF condemned the United States for its supposed "systemic racism," "white supremacy," and "interlocking systems of oppression."

The university's DEI administrators offered the solution: racial reeducation. USF offered racially segregated counseling sessions and promoted "white identity development" materials for white students to confront their "white privilege," "white guilt," and "white fragility."

According to these materials, whites must first enter the process of "disintegration," experiencing "white guilt" and thinking, "I feel bad for being white." Next, after their identity is broken down, they enter a phase of "reintegration," thinking, "it's not my fault I’m white."

Finally, as whites move through the stages of "pseudo-independence" and "immersion," they will begin to "work against systems of oppression" and "use [their] privilege to support anti-racist work." At the end, their psychology should conform entirely to political ideology.

As the final step, whites must answer various loyalty tests. "Does your solidarity last longer than a news cycle?" the training asks. "Does your solidarity make you lose sleep at night? Does your solidarity put you in danger? Does your solidarity cost you relationships?"

The endpoint of USF's DEI programming is left-wing political activism. As part of the university's official "anti-racist" guidebook, diversity officials included materials promoting "reparations," "defund the police," "prison abolition," and rejecting "White, capitalist Jesus."

Finally, USF promotes a range of racially segregated scholarship programs that explicitly exclude white students. As University of Michigan professor emeritus Mark Perry has shown, these programs are a direct violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act.

Here's the full story, including a link to 396 pages of original source material, at City Journal:

CM Doug Zylstra explains former Republican Attorney General of Michigan Mike Cox is on record saying the commission doesn't have the authority legally to replace the health administrator without cause. Then Jacob Bonnema says CM Curran's question went unanswered...
#OttawaCounty

Rewind 5 minutes, and you'll see Curran asking about the review process for the position. Moss quickly pipes in, unrecognized by the chair, and proceeds to sandwich grandstanding between two questions.

This is corporate misogyny on full display. Joe Moss is a pig and a coward.

Moss makes a last ditch effort to coach CM Cosby behind the scenes in an illegal closed session deliberation; he doesn't even have the floor. He loses his "MOTION!" to recess.

Cosby drops the bombshell: Ottawa Impact illegally conducted county business using campaign donations.

CM Zylstra asks a few questions that make it very clear CM Cosby and Ottawa Impact were acting as commissioners before they were sworn in.

Cosby thinks this is a game, and smirks as she repeats a cringy talking point built on hope for a likely non-existent legal loophole.

Doug asks important questions and Joe Moss interrupts to grandstand, equating violating OMA to helping citizens take back their government.
Doug expertly redirects the conversation back to actually broken laws. Cosby contradicts herself, backtracking from deciding to considering.

This is a hoax that's come around before, that snow burns instead of melting, now. It's an urban legend among the chemtrails people, and they keep making these videos, and they don't want to hear your science explanations. Now it's a Q thing too, apparently.

The QAnon folks are circulating a video claiming a snowball won\u2019t burn suggesting it\u2019s plastic from a secret weather modification system.

Ice can turn directly into water vapor and/or the water could be drawn into the porous snowball. The lighter fuel left the dark spot. pic.twitter.com/fz8RtoLvAN

Flat Earth stuff I think is already part of some Q believers' worldview. Which you would think would make engineering a continent-wide system of tunnels tricky, like how would they know not to go too far and make a hole in the bottom of the world? But they manage to believe.

@smc429 Clarence Thomas would "never" do such a thing.

Oh wait...nvmd...that's EXACTLY what Clarence Thomas and the dark money owned (foreign included) SCOTUS that @LeaderMcConnell helped build:

1/People I know on the Right tend to be obsessed with the idea of "crimethink", taboos, and the (supposedly) oppressive, omnipresent enforcement of liberal cultural norms.

Why?

My new theory: A lot of it is guilt.

2/It's true that in some circles - the media, universities, many big corporations - liberal norms *are* enforced to some degree, and the enforcement has probably gotten stronger in recent years.

But I don't think this explains all of the Right's obsession.

3/The stereotype is that people on the Right tend to be more threat-sensitive. That would help explain the perception that liberal norm-enforcers are lurking everywhere, ready to pounce and anathematize anyone who makes a misstep.

But I don't think that's all of it either.

4/And of course, it's always fun - whether you're on the Right or the Left, or playing a video game, or whatever - to style yourself as the brave iconoclastic rebel fighting against the oppressive forces of blah blah blah.

But I don't think this is all of it, either.

5/The reason I think it's more than these things is that even *in private*, people on the Right express their "crimethink" ideas very gingerly and hesitantly.

I get the sense that they're not just afraid of external censure, but have also internalized liberal norms.

Surendra Ananth @surendraananth, you violated my conditional consent. I assented to unprotected intimate relations with you on the STRICT condition that you tell me if you have relations with anyone else. You failed to do so, and I became ill as a direct consequence.

You refused to reveal your own STI results to me, but claimed to others they were negative and alleged I had multiple other partners, slut-shaming me. You gaslit me saying you had told me about your other partners.

You called up @justice_sisters and @SistersinIslam to tell them I was crazy, jilted. You rebuffed attempts to organise a community mediation so we could address matters. You said I was crazy for speaking to your boss and father in an attempt to keep other women safe.

You have a PATTERN OF BEHAVIOUR of misogyny, harassment and sheer disrespect for women. This was sent to a friend of mine who has never expressed interest in you and has a partner.

You think women are playthings, notches on the bedpost. You, @surendraananth, are no human rights advocate.

Recently, the @CNIL issued a decision regarding the GDPR compliance of an unknown French adtech company named "Vectaury". It may seem like small fry, but the decision has potential wide-ranging impacts for Google, the IAB framework, and today's adtech. It's thread time! 👇

It's all in French, but if you're up for it you can read:
• Their blog post (lacks the most interesting details): https://t.co/PHkDcOT1hy
• Their high-level legal decision: https://t.co/hwpiEvjodt
• The full notification: https://t.co/QQB7rfynha

I've read it so you needn't!

Vectaury was collecting geolocation data in order to create profiles (eg. people who often go to this or that type of shop) so as to power ad targeting. They operate through embedded SDKs and ad bidding, making them invisible to users.

The @CNIL notes that profiling based off of geolocation presents particular risks since it reveals people's movements and habits. As risky, the processing requires consent — this will be the heart of their assessment.

Interesting point: they justify the decision in part because of how many people COULD be targeted in this way (rather than how many have — though they note that too). Because it's on a phone, and many have phones, it is considered large-scale processing no matter what.
