“Civil War Brewing” at Sandia National Nuclear Laboratories as Scientist Rebel Over Racial Marxist Struggle Sessions

Remember a few weeks ago, when it was reported that scientists at Sandia National Labs were being forced into Racial Sensitivity Reeducation Seminars where they were taught that individual effort was a symptom of White Supremacy?

Last year, Sandia National Laboratories, a federal contractor responsible for building the U.S.’s nuclear weapons, sent its executives to mandatory diversity training with the White Men’s Caucus on Eliminating Racism, Sexism, and Homophobia in Organizations. This group’s educational materials’which were obtained by Christopher Rufo, a visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation–include many of the same racial stereotypes. As Rufo writes, participants were told that the “roots of white male culture”

consists of “rugged individualism,” “a can-do attitude,” “hard work,” and “striving towards success”–which sound good, but are in fact “devastating” to women and POCs.

In fact, the trainers claim that “white male culture” leads to “lowered quality of life at work and home, reduced life expectancy, unproductive relationships, and high stress.” It also forces this “white male standard” on women and minorities.

The seminar also asked white males to recite a series of “white privilege statements” and “male privilege statements.”

In other words: They were forced, by their employer, the US government, to confess to Race Crimes they were in fact innocent of, with the threat of firings or career derailment if they refused.

It concluded with its white male participants writing letters of apology to marginalized people whom they may have harmed, according to Rufo, who made the documents available on his website.

The researcher who publicized this Racial Maoism Struggle Session is now reporting that Sandia labs is treating a scientist like a dangerous Security Risk for having uploaded a video denying their various Cultural Marxist claims.

Yes, the Marxists are now claiming the Americans are Security Risks.

This is all from Christopher F. Rufo, of Heritage and City Journal.

On Tuesday, Peterson made a YouTube video "pushing back back on the narrative of modern systemic racism and white privilege."

The video quickly hit 10,000 views within the labs and dozens of Sandia employees contacted Peterson to express support.https://t.co/vMDH2vILB7

Here’s that video he posted.

Within hours, Sandia executives dispatched a counterintelligence team to lock –which, via the Streisand Effect, made the video even more viral and sparked widespread unrest against Sandia executives.By the afternoon, executives were panicking about the brewing rebellion, placed Peterson on paid administrative leave, and established a “security review board” to “evaluate whether [his] actions have comprised or posed a threat to Sandia computing and security systems.”

Peterson–who took a stand at grave risk to his career–says he is speaking on behalf of all of Sandia employees who are “scared to speak out” because of the lab’s repressive culture. “If I get fired because of this,” Peterson says, “the fight does not end, it only intensifies.”

This is the first explicit rebellion against critical race theory in the federal government–and the coalition is growing. “We need to completely rip [critical race theory] out of Sandia root and stem,” Peterson says. “It is cancer and we need to get it out of the labs right now.”

Sandia executives have made it clear: they want to force critical race theory, race-segregated trainings, and white male reeducation camps on their employees–and all dissent will be severely punished. Progressive employees will be rewarded; conservative employees will be purged.

Keep this in mind: Sandia Labs is a federally-funded research agency and designs America’s nuclear weapons. Senator @HawleyMO and @SecBrouillette have launched an inspector general investigation, but Sandia executives have only accelerated their purge against conservatives.

Sandia executives face a decision-point: they can back down and Peterson’s rebellion will notch an internal victory; or they can fire him and Peterson will become further evidence of Sandia’s corrupt and repressive culture. In a sense, Peterson cannot lose.

According to multiple sources, the executives who have pushed the most toxic elements of critical race theory and race-segregated trainings are James Peerey, Dori Ellis, David White (he/him), and Mark Sellers. They must be investigated by the Inspector General. pic.twitter.com/Zrhqf9aclA

Here’s the bottom line: this is the first shot in the rebellion against critical race theory in the federal government. Casey Peterson has taken a courageous stand and the Inspector General must conduct a full investigation of Sandia Labs–and hold executives accountable.
