This is something from the pages of George Orwell’s ‘1984’ novel! Just The News, on Monday, April 29th., published this headline, “In landmark guidance, the federal commission created to fight racial and sexual discrimination declared Monday that employers that fail to use a worker’s preferred pronoun or refuse them the chance to use the restroom of their choice will be engaging in prohibited harassment.”
The U.S. Equal Opportunity Commission published the new harassment guidelines Monday after voting along partisan lines on Friday to approve them, even in the face of opposition from nearly two dozen red states. Three Democrat appointees approved the rules while two Republicans opposed them.
The new document elevates gender identity as a protected class under discrimination laws like race, sex and religion.
Prohibited harassment includes “repeated and intentional use of a name or pronoun inconsistent with the individual’s known gender identity (misgendering) or the denial of access to a bathroom or other sex-segregated facility consistent with the individual’s gender identity,” the new regulatory document declared.
The guidance includes a hypothetical example of the sort of conduct that will be prohibited in workplaces gong forward.
“Chloe, a purchase order coordinator at a retail store warehouse, is approached by her supervisor, Alton, who asks whether she was ‘born a man’ because he had heard a rumor that ‘there was a transvestite in the department.’ Chloe disclosed to Alton that she is transgender and asked him to keep this information confidential,” the regulatory document states. “After this conversation, Alton instructed Chloe to wear pants to work because a dress would be ‘inappropriate,’ despite other purchase order coordinators being permitted to wear dresses and skirts.
Thomas Robb, the National Director of the Knights Party of the Ku Klux Klan, centrally based in Harrison, Arkansas spoke from his office saying, “This is what happens when good law-abiding Christian citizen say nothing about what’s going on in America, nor stand up for Christian values. Many people like to complain about what’s going on, but do nothing. I remember back in the Summer of 2020 during the height of the riots over George Floyd, we got numerous emails from people asking us what we intended to do about it. Nobody said, ‘How can I Help?” We allowed our government and public school systems to implement this same thing in schools. Everyone complained, and again, ask what we were going to do about it, without asking how they can help with our cause. We were compliant, and by being compliant, we have shown our government that we have no backbone. So, here we are, the same things that were implemented in our schools is being spread to our work places. Soon, as everyone sits idle, these laws will be passed to all public places. We can’t do this alone. At least contribute finacially to our cause. You don’t need to join to make a difference. Now is the time to stand up and say ‘enough’! Check out what we’re about, and our plan to return America to it’s White, Christian values. You’ll find out website at www.kkknationaloffice.com.”
