There is no acceptable way to express opposition to this because a segment of society is attempting to make any kind of dissent unacceptable. I read this thread last night and walked away without commenting because I knew what I wanted to say would probably lead to being attacked.

My thought as soon as I read this? Wokeness and equity comes to NPC recruitment and, therefore, NPC. The timing is interesting because I just finished watching an extensive interview with Peter Boghossian and James Lindsey about how wokeness destroys organizations from within in a very predictable pattern whether it is a church, a knitting club, a hiking group, or a college/university. It cuts off conversation, creates an alienated middle, and ultimately destroys the community. One of the things they specifically mentioned is the way it guts organizations financially as people in the alienated middle are forced out and leave with their money. I would guess this is the start of it in the NPC.

And if you think I'm overstating this, let's come back in four years and revisit this thread. Declining college enrollments, a prediction of 25% of colleges/universities closing in the next ten years, coronavirus fallout, massive job losses, and now these kinds of decisions?

I sincerely hope I'm wrong. I bet I'm not.
