The American Spectator: Major Corporations Are Firing DEI Officials
Large companies and universities are firing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hires due to decreased demand and growing social pressure. High-profile DEI executives are leaving their jobs, and thousands of DEI workers have been laid off. The spike in hiring DEI officials after George Floyd's death is now reversing. DEI officers are mostly white, not African American. While many workers support DEI initiatives, only a minority consider working in a racially diverse environment important. DEI officials are also facing backlash in universities, with Stanford University parting ways with its associate dean of DEI after an incident with a federal judge. DEI initiatives are now being seen as more of a hindrance than a help. []

The Epoch Times: Woe, the Humanity: How AI Fits Into Broadly Rising Anti-Humanism
As artificial intelligence advances, fears arise about the loss of human creativity and employment. This fear is exacerbated by a broader cultural shift towards anti-humanism, which rejects the belief in human ingenuity and connection. Climate change activists argue that the extinction of humanity could be beneficial for the planet, while state-sanctioned euthanasia becomes more accepted. Additionally, societal trends show an increasing disconnection between individuals, leading to isolation and loneliness. The decline of human connections is being replaced by a focus on self-love and artificial stimulation. The changing attitudes towards life, birth, and death reflect a diminishing value placed on human life. Furthermore, the decline of organized religion contributes to the growing atomization of society.

The Epoch Times: You Are the Population They Want to Control
Population growth in the United States has been driven by immigration, with a record 44.8 million immigrants living in the country in 2018. The government's messaging encourages lower birthrates and emphasizes the importance of education and careers over large families. However, open migration policies and the push for population reduction serve to dilute America's culture and work towards a globalized government controlled by the U.N. and the World Economic Forum. The ethics of gene therapy techniques for sterilization, using adeno-associated viral vectored techniques, raise concerns about accidental or purposeful modifications that could create infectious viruses and have devastating effects on animal populations and potentially humans.

The Epoch Times: ANALYSIS: Is the De-banking Problem Solvable?
Coutts Bank's closure of Nigel Farage's account raises concerns about banks dropping customers over political views. The Treasury plans to tighten rules on account closure, but not much can be done unless banks are re-nationalized. Banks have the freedom to refuse service but are expected to give notice. Customers mistakenly suspected of fraud may face difficulties accessing other financial services. Complaints related to bank account closures are on the rise. Certain occupations deemed riskier and politically exposed persons (PEPs) face scrutiny. Banks' closure of accounts based on personal views has sparked a debate over free speech. The government plans to extend the notice period for closure and force banks to provide reasons. However, it is uncertain how effective these measures will be. Banks must weigh risks and ensure clean money. Re-nationalizing banks or increasing transparency could be potential solutions. A free market solution where other banks step in may also be viable.
Flag And Cross: UPS Faces Potential Strike Threat As Union Demands Higher Wages
UPS, the world's largest package courier, is facing potential disruptions to its supply chain as it negotiates with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters for a renewal of its union contract. A faction within the union is unsatisfied with the current agreement and is threatening to go on strike. The primary focus of the negotiations is wage hikes for part-time workers, with the union pushing for salaries starting at over $20 per hour. If a strike were to occur, it could have serious consequences for the logistics industry and potentially contribute to inflationary pressures.
A strike by UPS workers could lead to delays in the delivery of the 19 million packages they handle daily in the United States. This could cause other shipping companies to raise prices, resulting in higher expenses and lower profit margins for businesses. The strike might also contribute to wage growth and make it harder for the Federal Reserve to achieve its inflation objective. The broader stock market, as well as rate-sensitive sectors, could be negatively impacted.
