Kevin BeaumontThe US Government has issued an executive order demanding employees snitch on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility initiatives by emailing: [email protected]
Just in case you wanted an email address for paywalls, mailing lists etc.
Nigel Wadsworth 🇦🇺@GossiTheDog I reckon there will be some real turds that will use that for snitching on their mates too. as requested by their Soupervisors.
Hobson Lane@nygl
And maybe a lot of people will misread the directive and report bigoted peers for violating others' civil rights, anonymously of course.

@hobs @GossiTheDog We can hope!!
skryThe very worst thing about this anti-DEI BS is that their implication is that anyone who isn't a white male was probably an incompetent person hired only to make the diversity numbers look good. In most cases the opposite is true, they are overqualified while Black, or women, or gay or whatever.
This is white supremacy gearing up to fire women and minorities and then not hire any in the future. Economic warfare by excluding people using demographics.
James 🦉 #FBPE 🇪🇺@skry @GossiTheDog I think this is the point 🤮
Maggie Maybe@skry @GossiTheDog they know the average white male is inferior to the rest of us which is why they need laws to elevate them.
I’m seeing people freak out about the civil rights act being dismantled, and that’s awful, but y’all have to understand that that didn’t stop anyone from discriminating against women or minorities ever. It just meant they couldn’t tell you to your face, but now that they can tell us to our face we will have to boycott them. So they might think this will help the corporations but it’s just going to force them to show their ass.
I mean you guys know they’ve been discriminating this whole time right? They just can’t say it to your face that’s all, women never got mandatory equal pay. EVER. So I don’t know what people are crying about, let these people put women and blacks need not apply right in their employment ads. Let them. At least you know who not to give your money to.

Discrimination was happening. You are right that far. It probably was happening at a slower pace, because it gave power to people who didn’t want to discriminate that had bosses that did. “But boss, these are the rule we have to follow.”
So the change will be palpable.
Jeff Grigg@Blueteamsherpa @maggiejk @skry @GossiTheDog
I'm pretty sure that most discrimination happens without saying it out loud. And "code words" are often used.
x0@JeffGrigg @Blueteamsherpa @maggiejk @skry @GossiTheDog This happens all the time to people with disabilities too, I must assume that people will find every way they can to worm around saying we actually don't want to hire you because you're blind. I'm legitimately worried that I'm going to be in a very bad way soon with the removal of this, because I won't be able to get a job, and it's only a matter of time before the ADA and any supplemental income programs are removed, leaving me with no funds and no means of getting them. And also medicaid.
Gumberculese 86 47Didn't MAGA darling Ramasmarmy point out the fact that white male Americans are lazy ignoramuses?
Corb_The_Lesser@skry @GossiTheDog The Musks and Trumps of the world sincerely believe whites are superior. We can't shame them by calling them racists.
tiny_m@GossiTheDog I googled that and found this https://www.chcoc.gov/content/initial-guidance-regarding-deia-executive-orders which is pretty chilling stuff tbh.

@home@tiny_m SCREAMING
@betalars I don't think until I read that , that I'd fully understood how scary the new administration is. I'm from the UK and I've never lived abroad. Our govt does some shady stuff but we do also have a fairly reliable legal system that would prevent this sort of stuff, so its really hard to imagine what it's like being in a country where you don't have that sort of protection for civil rights.
edit: you can all stop replying about the EHCR now. That wasn't the point of what I was getting at
@tiny_m I'm in germany and the only thing I keep thinking is I am so thankful the Americans made sure to really and thoroughly future-proof our constitution and I'm completely dumbfounded as to why they didn't proof theirs like at all.
I am so sorry for the good people that still live there.
@betalars I'm sure everyone thinks this about other people's governments but I find their whole election process completely baffling with the electoral college and popular vote and then how the high court changes so their entire federal legal system is also contingent on political bias. It seems very flawed, but then our house of Lords is also just a bunch of people who get to vote on our entire legal system just because they are rich so it's no better. we don't even have a constitution
Steve Popovich@tiny_m @betalars it would take forever to explain our royally f*ed up political system over here in historical terms, but to oversimplify, it seems to come back to the "original sin" of our nation, that at its beginning, only white, male landowners were full citizens with voting rights. So, originally the wealthy (by the standards of the day) had the power. Since then, we've never come to terms with the outsized political influence that wealth provides, because the entrenched wealthy interests don't want it to happen. We really need to get money out of politics.
@sspopovich good luck with that now o_O
David-TWe still have the protection of the ECHR! It's separate from the EU.
Despite the Tories (and the gutter press) making noises about leaving (repeatedly), they never did.
@yadt yeah I guess the point I was making was we have a lot of legal barriers that would prevent something like this happening where we live. I'm pretty sure if you tried to put an entire department on garden leave because their job involved preventing employment discrimination that's pretty strong grounds for constructive dismissal or calling your union to discuss a tribunal hearing. Especially for the civil service
Tor Iver Wilhelmsen
Alex@rtnVFRmedia Suffolk UK@tiny_m @betalars ECHR still applies here - its from the Council of Europe (which the UK is still part of), not the EU (which we left). It /is/ confusing as the two organisations have common roots and are linked in many ways, but I think even Reform UK would struggle to get Britain out of the Council of Europe (unless they actually get us expelled, or the UK splits apart)
PPN@GossiTheDog It would truly be a shame if that address was rendered useless.
Viraptor@GossiTheDog totally unrelated, I was curious about this service https://mailbait.info/ has anyone had experience with it? I was wondering if it works...
Edit: It does not work in a standard browser and unfortunately the target service doesn't work in general. You'll have to do it manually 😔

PaguroI'm pretty sure what you're suggesting is against the law, as it interferes with the work of a federal agency
Oomfie Snoofies@paguro @GossiTheDog lick those boots harder honey! They will for sure come save you!
@paguro @GossiTheDog I know all kinds of things I could do if I wasn’t worried about losing my CISSP or my freedom. So I won’t even suggest what others can do. But I won’t be upset if resistance is applied.

Jérôme@paguro @GossiTheDog We aren't all Americans, you don't get to do the law in every country on earth as much as you'd love it.
@paguro @GossiTheDog does that still apply when the agency is carrying out illegal orders?

@GossiTheDog I’m proud to announce that this address has already been used to sign up to all porn sites that I’m aware of
Vulpine Labs Inc.@GossiTheDog cant be a init if you are already run by lgbt+
Wouldn't it be an act of service if we reported an immigrant from South Africa that tricked shareholders many times and request him to be deported?
Earsmeardius@GossiTheDog Snitches get stitches, innit?
sahqon@GossiTheDog You should also snitch on people who are snitching, you know.
Jons Mostovojs@GossiTheDog oh fuck's sake, I tried to find a KKK mailing list for them to read stuff they enjoy... Inb4
The Guardian, 15 hours ago — KKK distributes flyers in Kentucky telling immigrants to 'leave now' ... Kentucky police are investigating after a series of racist Ku Klux Klan ...
@jonn @GossiTheDog we’ve been getting those up in New Hampshire for years. It’s weird as hell they put a flyer in a little plastic bag with some rocks so it doesn’t fly away and they just leave them places.
Up here it was the QAnon pedos doing it.
Deven Phillips@infosec812 @GossiTheDog add a +anything between the address name and @ sign, they'll get more spam :3
Keri Svendsen@funguy2playwith @GossiTheDog haha should we subscribe them to all kinds of shit?
Sounds like they’d appreciate an online greeting card to wish them luck in their endeavors.
epicdemiologist@GossiTheDog In case anyone wants the actual text, it's in Appendix 1 of this PDF https://www.chcoc.gov/sites/default/files/OPM%20Memo%20Initial%20Guidance%20Regarding%20DEIA%20Executive%20Orders.pdf
Adam Jacobs 🇺🇦@GossiTheDog Tempted to use it to report a case of DEIA hiring having genuinely gone too far in one branch of government, when they have hired someone who is obviously too old for the job and with significant cognitive impairment.
Do you think their new rules extend to hiring the President?
DoughPayMe@GossiTheDog Did people who voted for this, NAZI this coming?
Ulrich O.Wow, some Queer Communities here in Germany have newsletters. Who would have known...?
TBYG@GossiTheDog May I recommend the Miami Herald. I once entered my email address to read an article a friend sent me, and it took three calls to customer service to get them to stop sending me multiple emails a day. They had no unsubscribe link, and the manage your subscriptions link did not work. Seems perfect for the purpose.
Gilgwath@GossiTheDog I think you just found me a new evening activity for a few days.
Erin@GossiTheDog also a good email to forward spam too from server side.
Axel! 💙@GossiTheDog mailbait.info
JPeck@GossiTheDog wonder if the email will accept + notation to create sub accounts 🤔
T Kennedy@GossiTheDog I hope they enjoy the Modern Cat newsletter
Aliceonboard@GossiTheDog great will use that email for sure. Subscriptions incoming.
@GossiTheDog what good would that do for paywalls and mailing lists? wouldn't you want to use a desposible email address or something? especially if they have verification links added to them
