ANDREW FERGUSON: REEDUCATING THE BARISTAS IS A STUPID AND FUTILE GESTURE FROM STARBUCKS.

The world that the diversity trainers will usher the baristas into has a pristine, seamless wholeness to it. It is a world unto itself, unblemished by contact with reality, built from pure ideology: untutored trainers instructing blameless subjects in bogus science to cure a psychological defect that can’t be shown to exist, all at a staggering expense of time and money. Only a capitalist country as rich as ours could survive what its capitalists are doing to it.

That last sentence has been an evergreen observation for at least half a century.
