‘Sinister, Nefarious, And Dangerous’: Federal Government Watchdog Slammed For Memo Urging Woke Language | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Even a supposed federal government watchdog has gone radically woke, prompting harsh criticism from conservatives.

    A leaked October 2022 memo from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) - which examines government spending and is considered the supreme audit institution of the federal government of the United States - was obtained by The Daily Mail and reveals the GAO barring employees from using terms for male and female. The memo was posted on the GAO intranet.

    "Because meaning and connotations can change rapidly, we should not rely solely on precedent (GAO or otherwise) but should consider consulting early in an engagement with individuals and groups who are within scope of the work," the four-page memo states, offering "common alternatives to gendered terms" such as "artificial" instead of "man-made," "crewed" as opposed to "manned," and "workforce" as opposed to "manpower."

    "When it is necessary to refer to sex or gender identity, be aware of the distinction and avoid equating the two," the memo advises. "Sex is a classification of people into categories such as male, female or intersex on the basis of biological characteristics. Gender identity is a person's innermost concept of self as male, female, a blend of both, or neither. Gender identity may align with the sex a person was assigned at birth (cisgender), another sex (transgender), or neither.

    "When it is necessary to use binary terminology, avoid implying that all people identify with the sex or gender binaries or that all people share the biological characteristics of their assigned sex," the memo commands.

    The GAO is an agency within the legislative branch of the government, but its chief - the comptroller general - is appointed by the president.

    "This is the latest woke madness from the Orwellian Biden administration and this is an illustration of a presidency that has gone completely insane," blasted Nile Gardiner of the Heritage Foundation, calling the attempt to alter language "truly sinister, nefarious, and dangerous" and adding, "Dictating what language can and cannot be used is not what a free country is all about."

    "If Biden and the radical leftists in his administration focused on the real problems facing America - forty-year high inflation, out of control crime, open borders, and a flood of deadly drugs - instead of forcing a woke ideology down our throats, our country would be in a far better position to tackle the problems he has exacerbated," Wisconsin GOP Senator Ron Johnson snapped.

    "The Biden administration is working overtime to radically transform America and destroy what was common sense just a few years ago," Tennessee GOP Sen. Marsha Blackburn charged.

It has been far too many years since the Woke theology interlaced its canons within the fabric of the Indoctrination Realm, so it is nigh time to ask: Does this Representative Republic continue, as a functioning society of a self-governed people, by contending with the unusual, self absorbed dictates of the Woke, and their vast array of Victimhood scenarios?

  Yes, the Religion of Woke must continue; there are so many groups of underprivileged, underserved, a direct result of unrelenting Inequity; they deserve everything.

  No; the Woke fools must be toppled from their self-anointed pedestal; a functioning society of a good Constitutional people cannot withstand this level of "existential" favoritism as it exists now.

  I just observe; with this thoughtful observation: What will happen "when the Vikings are breeching our walls;" how do the Woke react?

Considering how abjectly corrupt and civilly abusive the Left has become regarding the corrosive effect of their elected leaders; their entrenched and ruling bureaucracy; employing their failed Education Industry as Indoctrinators; their collusive private sector operators, such as the terminally discredited Legacy Media and Big Tech censorship of Free Speech: What will be the best course forward for hardworking Middle Americans, including the Patriot Class?

  Withdraw from society, go underground and plan for a resurgence when it is feasible to do so.

  Work within the confines of better policy by the People's government, once good sense and sanity is restored in the electorate at large, to achieve such.

  Are you a crazy, nut-job Insurrectionist? Everything is perfect within our plan to achieve our intended goals for the Socialist Left.

  Secession to form a true Constitutional Republic.
