Hi everybody this is Gatsad today is a big day for me it is the official launch of the

paperback edition of the parasitic mind right here very excited this is the hardcover which came out exactly one year ago. So it's the anniversary

the one year anniversary of the launch of the parasitic mind and

Today is the release of the paperback edition. so make sure to get out there and get your copy.

I wanted to read for you a little section from the book.

I won't read the whole section because then I'm going to read a letter that someone

recently posted. So this is, so first I want to talk about the ideological conformity of diversity, inclusion, and equity,

also known as the Die religion, Die for Diversity, Inclusion Equity.

I'm just going to skip to one little part but you should read the whole section this is it starts on page 60 the parasitic mind but I'm going to read here from

page 61 but the dye zealots insist that all those under their dominion must be full converse to the progressive faith. A growing number of universities now require as part of the faculty hiring and promotion process that one demonstrates adherence to dye principles.

Take for example, UCLA's Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, and the fact that I mentioned

UCLA is going to become relevant in a second.

It released a report explaining that faculty members should submit a statement as part of the standard evaluation of academic personnel

wherein they highlight their quote

past present and future planned contributions to equity, diversity and inclusion close quote.

In the same way that the Bath Party swore their allegiance to former dictator Saddam Hussein and North Koreans publicly sang with great fervor their undying love for their now deceased, albeit glorious dear leader King John ill academic personnel

must now prostrate themselves at the altar of die failure to do so might bring the

death of one's academic career.

How prescient this book is.

Make sure to get your copy.

Because I'm now going to read to you

an entire letter from a professor at UCLA named Gordon Klein. The letter is posted on Barry Weiss's sub-stack, common sense with Barry Weiss.
