Excuse me? What the hell is happening in the federal goverment? Illogical? Not even a start. For one "American values and efficient service."... "American Values"? All I see in the entire God-forsaken article is early stage
totalitarianism
; Ever heard of a Totalitarianism is a political system and a form of government that prohibits opposition from political parties, disregards and outlaws the political claims of individual and group opposition to the state, and completely controls the public sphere and the private sphere of society. In the field of political science, totalitarianism is the extreme form of authoritarianism, wherein all socio-political power is held by a dictator. This figure controls the national politics and peoples of the nation with continual propaganda campaigns that are broadcast by state-controlled and state-aligned private mass communications media.[2] (From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia)
"yes-man"
? A staple of totalitarianism, and now they're literally testing them to see how much they'll say "yes" until they break and are fired.(Syn)In modern English, sycophant denotes an "insincere flatterer" and is used to refer to someone practising sycophancy (i.e., insincere flattery to gain advantage). The word has its origin in the legal system of Classical Athens. Most legal cases of the time were brought by private litigants as there was no police force and only a limited number of officially appointed public prosecutors. By the fifth century BC this practice had given rise to abuse by "sycophants": litigants who brought unjustified prosecutions.[1] The word retains the same meaning ('slanderer') in Modern Greek,[2] French (where it also can mean 'informer'), and Italian. In modern English, the meaning of the word has shifted to its present usage. (From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia)
Now the entire thing about dismantling
DEI programs
and reintroducing racial discrimination into universities, that's crap on its own--but now we're going straight up back to the In the United States, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are organizational frameworks that seek to promote the fair treatment and full participation of all people, particularly groups who have historically been underrepresented or subject to discrimination based on identity or disability.[1] These three notions (diversity, equity, and inclusion) together represent "three closely linked values" which organizations seek to institutionalize through DEI frameworks.[2] The concepts predate this terminology and other variations sometimes include terms such as belonging, justice, and accessibility. As such, frameworks such as inclusion and diversity (I&D),[3] diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB),[4][5][6] justice, equity, diversity and inclusion (JEDI or EDIJ),[7][8] or diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility (IDEA, DEIA or DEAI)[9][10][11] exist. In the United Kingdom, the term equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) is used in a similar way. (From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia)
spoils system?
Shame on you trump.In politics and government, a spoils system (also known as a patronage system) is a practice in which a political party, after winning an election, gives government jobs to its supporters, friends (cronyism), and relatives (nepotism) as a reward for working toward victory, and as an incentive to keep working for the party. It contrasts with a merit system, where offices are awarded or promoted on the basis of some measure of merit, independent of political activity. (From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia)
So what the hell can I do though? I'm just a random 15 year old with way too much knowledge of societal issues. Well, the obvious solution is to just impeach the Bastard, but let's be real here--There's too many yes-men in the goverment for that to happen in the next decade. So we're left with the same answer--None.
