The good feelings we conservatives have enjoyed in the latter half
of 2024 are continuing without stopping or slowing into 2025.
More and more organizations, including but not at all limited to
businesses, state and local governments, schools (including univer-
sities), entertainment, and more are refusing to be bound and gagged
by woke rules --- wokeness is political correctness on steroids ---
i.e. bowing down before pronoun regulations, forced acceptance of
the wild beyond belief i.e. admission of boys in girls' locker rooms
and rest rooms because the former "identifies" as girls, self-censor-
ship to avoid trouble with the law or opprobrium from and castigation
by certain circles (this last one is something hampering sand-up
comedians and comedy screenwriters) and like totalitarianisms.
Toward the end of the old year the University of Michigan, hardly a
conservative haven, ended their required diversity statements rule.
The school is ceasing to mandate the statements in hiring decisions
in hiring decisions. Furthermore, the University has dismissed a DEI
(Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) administrator accused of making
anti-semitic statements. Gee, isn't it odd that DEI types favor and in
fact demand inclusiveness for so many groups of people but bar
certain other groups because of their own bigotry and hatred for
them.
Anyway, the University of Michigan is to be commended and
encouraged for taking these two steps, which hopefully will be
the beginning of a journey back from extremism and unequal
treatment of whichever groups of people for unjust reasons.
Let us take a moment to applaud this university for its brave
stance.
