Rantz: WA taxpayer-funded training claimed only uneducated people reject DEI, perfectionism is ‘white supremacy’
Is this how you want your tax dollars spent?
A Washington state agency provided days-long training to employees to defend diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts, accusing those opposed as not being educated enough. The training even claimed “perfectionism” is based on white supremacist culture. The organizing agency, the Washington State Office of Financial Management (OFM), spent $31,000 on the training.
Attended school in the 60’s and 70’s. The goal was to be educated, to gain knowledge so you could advance into adulthood with a fighting chance to become an independent productive member of society. It didn’t matter your background or your race. We all attended the same classes. We all were given that same opportunity. Now we are separated into little boxes. It depends on what box you’re in as to whether you’re going to succeed regardless of knowledge. It will all come crumbling down one day for those in the “correct” box.
