Wokeness, Marxism, Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI), Intersectionality—these were never about "noble" intentions. Wokeness was crafted as an ideology meant to sow division, chaos, and ultimately destruction. Its aim was to upend natural social orders by shoving identity politics down your throat at the expense of merit, common sense, and even basic human decency.

Though its origins are deeply rooted, for the past decade, the world, especially America, has been sold a bill of goods, conned into embracing this concoction of grievances disguised as “equity.”

And the effects?

Utter disaster.

Nowhere in recent history has the chaos caused by DEI been more tragically displayed than in the wake of Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina. As if the storm itself, whatever its origins are, wasn’t catastrophic enough, the government, and particularly, FEMA’s implementation of "disaster equity" turned an already dire situation into a nightmare.

”Disaster equity?” you ask. We’ll get to that in a moment.

Make no mistake about it, this was not an accident—the horrific scene in conservative Western NC is the result of a deliberate effort to push DEI's divisive agenda into every facet of society, including emergency management.

But how did we get here?

DEI’s origins are rooted in an ideological framework designed to undermine societal stability. Intersectionality—its partner in crime—was not conceived to bring understanding or fairness. It was intended to create a hierarchy of grievances, ensuring that every aspect of life would be filtered through the lens of race, gender, sexuality, and victimhood.

Disaster relief is simply the latest target of this scheme. FEMA’s so-called "disaster equity" wasn't about helping people recover from calamities, it was about pushing the DEI agenda into places it has no business being.

Enter Hurricane Helene. While the catastrophic winds roared and the waters surged through the streets of Asheville and surrounding areas, FEMA's leadership busied itself with ensuring an "equitable" response. In the midst of a life-threatening disaster, the agency’s top concern wasn’t saving lives or delivering aid where it was most needed—it was virtue-signaling about "underserved communities."

And what did that achieve? Hundreds of lives lost, homes destroyed, families torn apart. The "disaster equity" FEMA touted became the very tool that guaranteed suffering and death.

Just watch this nonsense:
