Good lord, I thought this was a parody at first.

This week's annual Microsoft Ignite conference drew criticism in response to its corporate introduction, which pointed out people's race, hairstyles, genders, and acknowledged the indigenous land on which the company was built in Washington State.

Ah yes.... "Land Acknowledgements".

All the craze in the eco-woke world.

Lots of organizations now putting up these white-guilt confessions on their websites.

More CRT based nonsense.

That was really weird, LOL!

Got me to thinking, how I would introduce myself if I were attending one of those clown shows?

"Hi, I'm doc1, I'm a white, 6'4" Irish American who enjoys a tipple with friends, am wearing a wifebeater under my casual Friday polo shirt and underneath my khakis I dress left.

I'm vaxxed, circumcised and was breast fed
."

"Hi, I'm ElectronicOverlord, black American and non-ADOS. I don't disclose my vax status and-" (gets booed off the stage)

Centuries ago, people would say their title (like Duke, etc) before they would talk as if that gave their words more authority and accuracy.

Democrats have become regressive and are reverting back to that. "As a black trans man, I can say that capitalism is oppressive against minorities." The title of black trans is high up on the victimhood chain and supposedly gives more authority and accuracy.

I saw those introductions earlier this week and it was painful to watch.
