So I looked up Leo Galuh. And now it makes sense.


So now I merely wonder why The Independent chose to reprint this piece...



Perhaps Biden can use our tax dollars to fly the Indonesian trans sex workers to the US and release them into the general population.

I don't typically sit through several-minutes-long videos of a guy ranting about a thing, but this one is actually pretty good.



My alma mater, incidentally. We didn't have snowflake BS on campus 30 years ago, and apparently they still don't today.

That first white male looking person who's doing "Environmental Science and Sustainable Business". I think my wife is doing something like that now, transferred into that department a couple years ago. Replacing the plastic wrapping on soap with wax paper or no wrap at all, that sorta ****. Anyway, $$$ there, too bad he that person looks like a white male.

Agreed. Majors of study such as "Sustainable Business" might have been total bunk thirty years ago, but just think of all of the greenwashing going on nowadays. Someone has to orchestrate all of that, and corporations are willing to pay for it.

Same goes for DEI-type fields. If you're brown and queer, you can easily make a six-figure salary in the Fortune 500 (or the gov't sector) by helping to de-stigmatize pedophilia in the workplace.

Asian parents, no less. That's more shocking than the made up **** these kids studied.

This is an example of a straw-man:
