Cease and resist: how to fight the illiberal left

"You too can summon the strength to say: this violates my conscience and I will not do it."

I have never in my life received so many pleas for help. I work for the National Association of Scholars, and we’ve advised and supported scholars persecuted by the illiberal left for more than 30 years. But in the past two months, the emails have flooded in — and not just from professors. The would-be tyrants of the illiberal left have cast aside all restraint as they jam censorship and ‘antiracism’ propaganda on their employees in workplaces throughout America.

Everyone who writes to me is afraid. All fear losing their jobs, and some fear that public resistance will target them for personal harassment or worse. My correspondents don’t know what to do. How should lone individuals behave now? How can they resist? Should they resist?

Here’s my advice to everyone who is afraid. You can become a dissident and refuse to bend your knee to evil. Imitate Prof Jeffrey Poelvoorde of Converse College. Poelvoorde has refused outright to undergo mandatory ‘diversity and anti-bias training’. His employers may now fire him for ‘insubordination’. Yet he will not bend. You too can summon the strength to say: this violates my conscience and I will not do it.

  1. If you're afraid of losing your job don't re-elect Trump. He shattered the record for jobs lost. We're supposed to celebrate the return of 1.3 million jobs today when 30 million were lost due to his coronavirus response?

    1. You are a misinformed parrot. I watched Bidens speech. Started out with lies and ended that way as well.

    2. 3:07- Tired of you idiots speaking in vague accusations. How de HE fail? Specifically, how could he have prevented this from coming to the US? Did you forget he was being impeached by your Democratic morons, and called xenophobic when he put China on a travel ban? Come on, Mr Wizard! The world could learn from Captain Hindsight, here! You F-ing idiot.

    3. It was Democrats who forced people not to leave their homes and not letting businesses open but even after all that the stock market is booming and unemployment is way down and Pelosi still won’t send the unemployed money

  2. I firmly believe that voting for Donald Trump and giving him a second term will eliminate much of this nonsense. Too many reasons to list but Joe posts alot of interesting articles from various places. Read them, research what you don't understand and vote for your Republic back.
    While voting for Donald Trump is important it's also important to remember to vote Republican. They must reclaim the House and keep the Senate or Trump's presidency will won't be as effective. I say "as" effective because he will still be fighting for us but it would help him enormously.
    Thank you.
    God Bless the U.S.A.

  3. 3:07 You are so damn dumb! You can't possibly read statics, what about the 4 million jobs Trump created, and the lowest unemployment rate in history, especially among black women did you miss! The country would be amazing if it weren't for the Democrats!

    1. Karen,
      The US Government lies about every statistic.
      The important one is the Labor Force Participation Rate. It is the lowest since women were tricked into working. Look it up

    2. Then Biden must lie too according to your statement - lies nothing but lies.

  7. Unlike the liberal Democrats, conservative Republicans only work with real statistics and verify our sources. We don't open up our mouths unless we are 100% certain, and we won't be served SH*T on a shingle and be told to think and believe that we're eating smores.

  8. The anti-racist movement is racist in and of itself, and accomplishes opposite of what one would expect or hope it to accomplish. I don't have to be white to see that, cause I'm not. Being forced to buy into a theology is a violation of one's constitutional right. No different than mandating a religion on somebody. For those who are racist, it is not one-way problem. It cannot be fixed through policy or by force. It is a heart problem. Anyone that caters to this anti-racist movement is a supremacist by any color.

  9. These HR people now think they are SHRINKS. The new pacifying catch phrase is " Unconcious Bias " so even if I do conduct myself professionally in accordance with diversity policy race,sex,gender WHATEVER I am suspect for what my subconcious mind might be silently free associating. Really ? That is just surreal, assumptive and frankly none of their business. What next quack unscientific parlor magic Ouji board polygraphic testing ? This is really becoming the new Inquisition. We use to have Bosses and Managers now it's " Leadership " people that have not worked in the trenches for years and sit in their offices advancing their degree titles to get a higher pay grade and have not a clue what the real work is and who does it. It really has become like Communism everyone a local party official exploiting the workers and mandating crazy mind control behavior rules and robotic compliance.
    Granted I make 60 dollars an hour and have great benefits but there is something disturbing about it.

  10. Just watch a documentary on WWI and WWII - the brave who fought for our freedoms - makes all this chatter seem so insignificant. Our civil rights, BLM, LGBT, cancel culture - all Freedoms we have to openly discuss only because our Veterans fought for it. Grow up and stop complaining. Make America great again Trump 2020πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²

  11. We haven't had a war for our freedoms since the revolutionary or perhaps the civil (if you understand the real reasons behind the civil war you'd understand, it had nothing to do with blacks specifically). Come to reality.
