California education 'equity' officials forced to resign...wait for it

[Counselor706]

Pamela Kadakia, who formerly served as the California Department of Education's equity project manager, was relieved of her duties last week upon discovery that she and her husband actually live in the Dallas, Texas, area, Politico reported.

Kadakia's controversial work-life situation was made worse by the fact that she lives in a state where California employees are not even allowed to travel in an official capacity, due to a newly enacted travel ban on states with "discriminatory laws."

Kadakia is not the first California education official to lose a job for living out of state. Earlier in December, her boss, Daniel Lee, was forced to resign after Politico reported that he lives in Pennsylvania.

Lee, a Philadelphia-based psychologist and life coach, was named California's first superintendent of equity despite the fact that he was living on the East Coast and working another job at the same time.

Why would she actually want to live in California??

It's an overpriced shit hole.

Don't see what this implies. I'm sure many states have a rule that state officials should live in the state.

They probably think it makes some point about the storied mass migration from California to Texas, which doesn't really exist in the magnitude they imagine. Some people certainly have moved to Texas from California, but more people have moved from one part of Texas to another.

Not even the people running that shit hole want to live in it.

Despite an open border and being a sanctuary state it's still losing people.

And the ones leaving are generally better paid tax payers.

Some people certainly have moved to Texas from California, but more people have moved from one part of Texas to another.

Yea, doesn't change the fact that Texas is growing, fast. By 16% in

And California for the first time ever is LOSING populating.

Must be all those AMAZING progressive policies and governance.

And becoming less red at about the same rate.

My area is starting to have a problem with people who didn't like it there, so they moved here. As soon as they moved here, they started making it here like it was there.

Even had a person running for local office as Democrat last election.

 

[Champakian]

Funny. Where I came from everything was Republican except the Sheriff.

I really don't understand why, but it was how the voters at the time felt.

Prosperity through security maybe?

Equity means equal rewards for blacks, despite inferior performance. It is affirmative action on steroids.

Systemic racism is the current alibi for black failure when there is no evidence of racial discrimination.

"Yer not from 'round here" is what's said to people who's family didn't receive a military lot for service in the American Revolution.

Damn transplants and tourists turning my mountains into some kind of hippyville.

 

[GothTalk]

And becoming less red at about the same rate.

The recent elections, have shown otherwise.

What's actually happening is that people are moving where they want to live.

And the Californians fleeing for Texas? Aren't progressive leftist.

Red folks aren't flocking to California or NY either. Only hardcore leftist want to move there.

Polarization is deepening, not lessening.

Maybe CA. should double the state taxes on any business that does business in the proscribed states. Teach them a lesson.

Yes, and tipple if it's one of those fucking white people.... gotta check that privilege, you know since they're all born with a platinum spoon in their mouths and have the good life handed to them on a platter.

Now that's anti-racist progress!!!

It would be the "fair" thing to do.

Let's all hope for extreme "progress" in California and New York!! I'm not sure they've had enough.

From another thread:

I still find this a fascinating topic, I just heard Richard Fowler on The Five
repeat the same meme that was elucidated here earlier,
"those people migrating will turn red to blue."

Having grown up during the "White Flight" out of Kansas City,
I just don't see that as reality because those suburbs
remained stolidly conservative in the decades
following that 'escape from KC' and the
attendant race and poverty politics.

Why would true Blue be the faction moving when
they got what they advocated and agitated for?
What I've observed is the enmity (and this was
also expressed by President Obama) of those who
stayed towards those who left eroding their tax base.

I think that it is just as likely that this emigration would
only tend to increase the conservative nature of the
destinations. Any shifting to blue of the new arrivals
would not be with the first generation, but contained
within the perceptions (and education) of subsequent
generations (because the Left seizes educational control).

The most damaging exodus then would be the retreat
by the Red from the hostile environment of the Blue
campuses of the nation's institutions of higher learning
instead of standing up to the intolerance, bigotry and
pronto-socialist ideologies (disguised as things like
climate change, CRT and gender fluidity [even MMT]).

 

[JohnnySavage]

The "true blue" migrate because what they got what they want, they just wanted it for other people.

 

[Champakian]

There's a point.

That's what political altruism usually boils down to:
I know better how to run your life,
stay the hell out of mine...

 

[JohnnySavage]

You see... most people who think communism is a great system, usually think they would be at the top of the system's food chain. There's only a few of those comfy spots available. Everyone else scrapes by.

 

[Champakian]

I cannot count the times that I've posited that same observation in these threads.

 

[GothTalk]

From another thread:

Yup.... not wrong.

I say give them more rope and encourage the "progress" .

The next (R) POTUS needs to challenge them publicly to create a no ID needed, paid for entirely by Californian tax payers, universal HC system for any and all who show up with their hands out. Stop talking about it and DO IT, show us how amazing that would be.

 

[Champakian]

That'll staunch the outflow of their citizenry...

 

[bellisarius]

BTW, the education system issue is being addressed in the red states. Billy Ayers is losing his status.

Yup.... even in the purple/swing/moderate states the progressives took a fuckin' thrashing in schoolboard elections.

I love to see the backlash against their racist bullshit.

Let us hope they make it EXCEPTIONALLY painful to leave.....remind everyone who does leave why they are leaving and anyone thinking about going think twice and read the fine print before signing up for "Progress".
