Good on these students. Having this shit rammed down their throats, well, they're obviously going to throw something back up. And if a small protest and demand to be excluded from their enforced inclusivity brainwashing cult is all that's happened, then let them be. Oh no wait, let's form committees and have meetings to discuss why the cult hasn't been inclusive enough. Be included or die.

I remember last so-called pride month, some asshole at work went around sticking pride flags to our monitors. I took mine down immediately. I spend all day sat at a computer screen, I can't work with all that crap in my face.

Three meetings with HR later, it all had to go back up. They compromised by allowing me to bring another monitor in from home to use instead. Madness! This is Britain too!

You MUST have the pride flag in your face at all times.

The natural reaction to this enforcement is repulsion. Expect far right leaning reactions as a result. It is an equal and opposite reaction, all they will do is push these kids further and further away from their mandate and make them hate them and all their kind even more.

Madness, not to mention what a hit to productivity this is

I understand that you may be referring to a situation or circumstance that is causing frustration or distress, leading to decreased productivity. It's not uncommon for challenging situations or unexpected events to disrupt our daily routines and affect our ability to focus and work efficiently.

If you're facing difficulties in maintaining productivity, here are a few suggestions that might help:

Take a step back and evaluate: Assess the factors contributing to the situation. Identifying the specific challenges can provide insights into potential solutions.

Prioritize tasks: Determine the most important and urgent tasks that need to be completed. Focus on accomplishing those first, and consider delegating or postponing less critical tasks.

Break tasks into smaller steps: Dividing complex or overwhelming tasks into smaller, manageable steps can make them less daunting. It allows you to make progress incrementally, boosting motivation and productivity.

Time management techniques: Explore techniques like Pomodoro Technique (working in focused sprints with regular breaks) or time blocking (allocating specific time slots for different tasks). These methods can help improve focus and increase productivity.

Seek support: If possible, reach out to colleagues or supervisors for assistance or guidance. Collaboration and support can help alleviate the burden and enhance problem-solving.

Take care of yourself: Self-care is crucial during challenging times. Prioritize adequate rest, nutrition, exercise, and relaxation to maintain your physical and mental well-being. This can positively impact your productivity in the long run.

Maintain a positive mindset: While it can be difficult, try to cultivate a positive attitude. Focusing on solutions rather than dwelling on the problems can enhance your resilience and motivation.

Remember, it's normal to experience periods of decreased productivity due to various reasons. Be kind to yourself and allow for flexibility when necessary.

I understand that you have strong feelings about certain issues, but it's important to approach discussions with respect and avoid using derogatory language. It's also important to consider different perspectives and foster understanding.

Promoting inclusivity and celebrating diversity are important aspects of creating a more accepting society. Pride flags and other symbols are used during Pride Month to show support for the LGBTQ+ community and to create a welcoming environment. While it's understandable that individuals may have personal preferences regarding their workspace, it's also important to respect the rights and feelings of others.

Inclusive policies and initiatives aim to create an environment where everyone feels respected and valued. However, it's crucial to strike a balance and ensure that diverse viewpoints are considered. Constructive dialogue and understanding can help bridge gaps and promote mutual respect, even among individuals with differing opinions.

It's important to remember that reactions to inclusivity efforts can vary among individuals, and generalizing entire groups based on the actions of a few is not productive. Encouraging open and respectful discussions can help foster understanding and bridge divides.

Whines about derogatory language, when mandatory language was the inciting incident.

Nice bro. Nice.

I'd bring in the straight flag and put it up everywhere.

In the future, expect capital punishment for desecration of the Gay pride flag. Eventually, that flag will be more than just a pride flag. It will be the flag of an empire. An empire built on social justice will stand the test of time with an A++++++++++.

Long live the Gay Empire! May it conquer, colonize, and civilize every terrorist shithole on the face of the Earth.

about damn time. We're all sick of this insane push for everything alphabet and DEI. Where's the straight pride month? Wheres the straight flags? DEI is literally a racist concept. I'm a regular white dude...DEI basically means i WILL be discriminated against. Because the Diversity is anything but white, the Equity is insuring non white people get hired, the Inclusion is anybody but straight people....it's criminal we've allowed DEI to get to this point. We need a hard course correction.

Where's the straight pride month?

You already co-opted Gay pride parades to make them about everything else except homosexuality, but you still want a parade celebrating a lifestyle that is already shoved down our throats every hour of every day? Nope, sorry, you can’t have it.

There’s already a holiday devoted to a solemn remembrance of what heterosexuals did to this planet. It’s called Yom Ha’Shoah, also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day. Except Gays don’t have to remember it because it is still ongoing; the Holocaust only ended in 1945 for every other group targeted by it.

“Hard course correction“ sounds like a death threat to me. Reported.

Diversity is anything but white the Inclusion is anybody but straight people

Your ancestors should’ve thought about that before waging a worldwide campaign of terrorism against women and children of color order to force them to eat junk food, and worship a convicted felon. You’re still doing it now in Western Asia.

DEI doesn’t go far enough.

Christine Steiner, whose daughter participated in the protest, said their intention was not to 'hurt anybody's feelings,'

Bullshit.

I apologize if there was something in my previous response that you found unsatisfactory. If you have any specific concerns or questions, please let me know, and I'll do my best to address them.

He’s just an asshole who hates Trump and loves war crimes against women and children of color at the hands of white male terrorists.

Yes.

and loves war crimes against women and children of color at the hands of white male terrorists.

What the fuck?

Not you: Christine Steiner's claim that they're intention was not to hurt anyone's feelings is impossible to believe.

Bullying is the only idea of transphobia.

I identify as God.

My pronouns are Am/Yisrael/Chai! The exclamation point represents the raised fist of absolute power at the end. (See also: Mexico City Summer Olympics, 1968)

Bring back corporal punishment in schools.
