This isn’t creepy at all. It’s just the perpetual one-part Kafka, one-part Orwell, and three parts identity politics panopticon that critical race theory claims is the only way to the unachievable goal of true social justice.
I was talking to Wayne Allyn Root earlier on Frank TV about the total weaponization of government. This is another example of that. The Left is constantly exploring new ways to totally weaponize the government. It never misses an opportunity, an angle, or an option to add another brick to its new Berlin Wall for America.
Here’s another example of that.
“SB 54 passed the state Senate with a vote of 32-8; next, it will go to Governor Gavin Newsom’s desk. The bill requires venture capital firms operating in California to report the diversity breakdown of the founders they fund to the state; this includes reporting on the gender and ethnic and racial background of the founders, in addition to the dollar amount given to them.”
The bill orders the disclosure of the “gender identity of each member of the founding team”, their race, ethnicity, LGBTQ status etc… and ominously, “any member of the founding team declined to provide any of the information described in clauses”.
Refuse to disclose and you’ll pay the price. You and your little dog too.
The obvious goal here is to pressure VCs to force the companies they fund to collect detailed information about the founders, and to push founders to include ‘tokens’ who are just there to pad out diversity stats.
There will be no shortage of Asians, Indians, and gay people on these lists, but that’s not diverse enough. And so we’ve had the spectacle of Silicon Valley firms being told that they’re not diverse when 40% of their employees are Asians or Indians.
Should the government be aggressively tracking the sexual interests of tech company founders, California’s identity politics Dems believe that they should.

That’s why you have no heart. That;s why you have no soul. That’s why you don’t know how to fight beyond 5 seconds.
Jeff Bargholz says
WTF? Did you wake up o the wrong side of the bed?
CowboyUp says
Una apparently woke up on the liquor side of the bed.
Una Salus says
9/11 already demonstrated that beyond anything California could do. Just stay in your zone dumbass.
Una Salus says
Just sat in your stupid Trump zone. Nobody is asking more 0f you. About the best you can do.
Una Salus says
Yes it’s really so exemplary, so inspirational
Una Salus says
People who never do anything with all themselves. They’re always giving it out in measured increments.
Una Salus says
And what we already have with this Trumptard who has absolutely nothing to say about anything important.
Una Salus says
9/11 is not important. Only Trump retardation is important.
Una Salus says
About as pathetic as anything the Left could throw at us.
Una Salus says
Pathetic, don;t ever mention it again but given your Trump God you probably won’t unless there’s electoral benefit.
Una Salus says
Absolutely nothing
Jeff Bargholz says
Una, stop drinking so much. It’s not good for you. I know from first hand experience. Find a nice man and settle down.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Crazy. Liable to drive some venture capital funds out of California, one of the main sources of California tax revenue.
Jeff Bargholz says
The other major source being us citizens, who have been leaving in droves.
NAVY ET1 says
Proving conclusively that the labels the left like to throw around are coming from someplace internally, because that has “totalitarian” and “Nazi” written all over it. If Democrats didn’t throw shade, negatively label conservatives or project on other’s what they outwardly are doing…what would they have left?
SPURWING PLOVER says
1984 Big Brother in the Golden State Newsom is a total Pinhead
Luz Maria Rodriguez says
California has self-destructed. The REAL problem is they have some many stupid voters who just do not learn. If only there were a way for other states to not allow such dimwitted people to relocate from California. The 500-pound gorilla in the room is they (migraters) continue to vote the same way they did that ruined the once Golden State. Only people with awareness and understanding of consequence should be allowed to vote, imv.
Stevie says
They are cheating the count in Suckramento. Have been for awhile now.

If you pay taxes, even sales taxes, you should be allowed to vote. How can you have a government that FORCIBLY takes money from you and then denies you the right to vote? That’s taxation without representation.
“You work, make money, we forcibly take it away from you, to fund our salaries, lives, mansions, and schemes, and you have no right to vote us out of office!”, does that sound like a tyranny of thuggish parasites? A mafia? Because it is.
“In a fully free society, taxation—or, to be exact, payment for governmental services—would be voluntary. Since the proper services of a government—the police, the armed forces, the law courts—are demonstrably needed by individual citizens and affect their interests directly, the citizens would (and should) be willing to pay for such services, as they pay for insurance….
The principle of voluntary government financing rests on the following premises: that the government is not the owner of the citizens’ income and, therefore, cannot hold a blank check on that income—that the nature of the proper governmental services must be constitutionally defined and delimited, leaving the government no power to enlarge the scope of its services at its own arbitrary discretion. Consequently, the principle of voluntary government financing regards the government as the servant, not the ruler, of the citizens—as an agent who must be paid for his services, not as a benefactor whose services are gratuitous, who dispenses something for nothing.” – Ayn Rand
Cat says
Maybe, just maybe, there is a future where we can monitor the politics of migrants from state to state. I mean as long as we are dystopian, and mind readers, lets just go for it. The border of each state could become checkpoints of prior speech and also thought patrol.
As a prisoner in a blue state. it would not benefit me. But maybe it could save at least part of the world from self-immolation ignited by imported trans psychosis.
THX 1138 says
Interesting that you should say “save at least part of the world from self-immolation”.
Self-immolation is ALTRUISM.
Jeff Bargholz says
What is your major problem with being a good person and benevolence?
Do yourself a favor and ditch your Ayn Rand fixation.
Read the Bible or Joseph Conrad or something. Or maybe some comic books.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Joseph Conrad was good. I read some of his books back in the 1980s.
Algorithmic Analyst says
The motto of the left is “Double Double, Toil and Trouble.”
The American people aren’t prepared for such a congerie of evil witches, who aim only for their destruction, having been raised in more benevolent times.
Matt Tarango says
Daniel, the only comment on my mind was this is straight out of “Atlas Shrugged.”
CowboyUp says
How can California discriminate racially and sexually if they don’t know the race, sex, and sexual orientation of their targets? They also need this info for reparations billing.
