politics of diversion

When politicians focus on issues that are controversial but in reality have little or no effect on most people in order to divert attention from more important issues they don't want to deal with

voter: "I'm unemployed and I just lost my health insurance, what are you going to do to fix the economy and make healthcare affordable?"

politician: "Well, we need to ban same-sex marriage and flag desecretion."

voter: "WTF?! What does that have to do with anything, stop the politics of diversion and tell me what you are going to do about the real problems facing this country!"

diver's block

When someone going off a diving board takes forever deciding what trick to do, often seeking advice from others.

A play on both writer's block and the diver's blocks used for racing.

Zach had a case of diver's block and held up the diving board line asking his friends for advice.

Divershitty

The practice of requiring the admission of different, deficient or inadequately prepared people into any group to insure mediocrity so no one's feelings will be hurt because of the group's previous effectiveness.

The University's admission policies favor divershitty over achievement in order to make some of the virtue signaling Board of Trustees feel all warm and fuzzy over their smug tolerance of lesser beings.

Diversity

This is the latest empty buzzword popular with lefties and feminists. It means lets get rid of the white guys first. Then we will get rid of the colored ones. We will replace them all with white women and, if any openings are left, with a few colored ones.

Everybody benefits when business promotes diversity.

diversity

An old, old wooden ship that was used during the civil war era to deliver large supplies of puréed walnuts from the South to the North. The walnuts were used as a replacement for toilet paper, due to the wartime shortage. Despite the volitile relationship between the two countries at the time, the North figured that it was more important to have a clean ass than to place an embargo on the South's nut shipments. The South figured,"Hell, we need the money".

There have been complaints from the authorities about a lack of diversity in the News Room.
