Civil War 2.0 (Op-Ed)

July 13, 2023July 13, 2023 TTC 4 Comments Civil War, Democrats, Donald Trump, James Ferguson, LGBTQ, Marxism, Opinion, Pride Month, Republicans, Transgender, Wokeism

“Wokism” Is Our Modern-Day Equivalent Of Pre-Civil War Slavery. This Marxist Class Warfare Philosophy Is Most Simply Defined As “Being Alert To Invisible Injustices Perpetrated Against Disempowered Classes Of People.” As A Result, “Race” And Victimhood Are Seen In Everything. In Fact, The Term Intersectionality Holds That Minority Grievances Intersect To Oppose “Patriarchal Oppressors.” One Person Talking To Two Others Might Claim Victimhood In Such A Warped Reality.

Wokeism Is Marxism, DEI And ESG Are Stakeholder Capitalism (Op-Ed)

June 28, 2023June 28, 2023 TTC 2 Comments Bud Light, Businesses, Communism, Danielle Goodrich, DEI, Diversity Equity Inclusion, Dylan Mulvaney, environmental social governance, ESG, Ford, Ford Motor Company, Marketing, Marxism, Opinion, propaganda, stakeholders, Target, Wokeism

As A Former Marketing Director It Has Been Hard For Me To Wrap My Head Around The Brand Suicide Many Of The Companies Like Target And Bud Light Look To Be Committing.
Marketing Is About Identifying Your Core Audience And Creating A Message That Will Resonate With Them.
Propaganda Is Creating A Message To Force Information, Especially Of A Biased Or Misleading Nature, Used To Promote Or Publicize A Particular Political Cause Or Point Of View.
These Companies Are Creating Campaigns That Don’t Resonate With Their Core Audience. Instead, They Are Forcing Ideology On That Audience.

Educational Reform Is Unlikely To Happen From Within. Only The Tennessee Legislature Can Leverage Change In Tennessee Higher Education.

The Mason-Dixon Line, Past And Present

This symbolic parallel has been a weapon by the North to cast aspersions against Southern culture, religious values and political ideologies. Forever and a day it has been a mythical barricade to “shelter pseudo Northern sophistication from crude Southern contamination.”
This enigmatical line continues to serve as a political and cultural boundary that defines differences in socio-political ideology between the North and South. Without discrimination towards race, class or gender, today it defines the regional strengths of the South; its culture, religious dogma, law and order, family values, respect for guns and marriage, its conservative politics and its elite patriotism.
