    Also, from the CNN article, you can't be a commander in the Philadelphia Police Department either.
    I don't really see a problem with some kind of racial awareness training for the police, since they have a very sensetive job.

    But, I would expect this to be a lesson in what kind of language and actions offends certain races and religions, for cultural reasons, ie shoes in mosques and all that shit. Not a lecture on white privilege.

    That's not the type of training they're talking about here. I don't know much about it but there exists some kind of psychological test for unconscious bias. Like they will flash a picture of two dudes, each holding a small metal object. And then they'll ask you "which one was holding a knife?". If you say "the black one", then you're a racist.

    This is pretty dubious science. And buried in the literature on this is the fact that they can't prove that this unconscious bias actually influences behavior. There's no science for that at all.

    Yet somehow they have developed a way to re-train people's thoughts to reduce or eliminate this unconscious bias. Re-read that man. They are changing your fucking thoughts! Or at least trying to. 8000 Starbucks stores are going to cease doing business for half a day so that the dozens of employees at each store can be threatened with their jobs if they don't align their thoughts with those of the ideologues in power.

    How are you not shitting your pants over this?
