National Intelligence Office Diversity Report Uses Photoshopped Stock Image to Fake Diversity

National Intelligence Office Diversity Report Uses Photoshopped Stock Image to Fake Diversity

The office photoshopped two handicapped people into the photo.

This is not The Onion or The Babylon Bee.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence used a stock photo on its annual demographic report.

It gets worse because someone photoshopped a woman in a wheelchair and a blind man into the photo.

You can download the photo, named “Portrait Of Multi-Cultural Office Staff Standing In Lobby,” on Shutterstock for free.

The press release states the “report presents key data and efforts addressing diversity and inclusion across the IC.”

The IC boasts “the percentage of minorities increased to 27 percent from 26.5 percent in 2019, the percentage of persons with disabilities increased to 11.9 percent from 11.5 percent in 2019, and the percentage of women remained the same at 39.3 percent in FY20.”

Then why not take a picture of your diverse workforce? OK, say it is normal for them to use stock photos. But why photoshop two handicapped people in it?

Can’t someone do a better photoshop job, too?

This D and I is as phony as anything else the regime does. It’s more kool-aid for the low IQ.

And this cartoonish propaganda site thinks the “leckshun wuz stoalun!!!”

So?

    No…. But some of your comments make
    Me think perhaps some parts of your brain were stolen..

      Aw come on Doc, those parts might never have been there to begin with.

      Using an ‘everyone who opposes me, or I think opposes me’ is a”hick trope” on a site run by a Cornell law professor, with degrees from Harvard and Hamilton;and whose staff is educated and informed is absurd.

      But I suspect they are immersed in incongruent absurdities on a daily basis, if they think at all about the whole of what is embraced by their tribe.

    cgray,

    When you watch cartoons at home do you yell and shout nonsensical statements as well or do reserve that behavior for public venues?

    Asking for a friend who specializes in involuntary commitments.

    Love how liberals think anyone who disagrees with them are uneducated bumpkins. Tell us where this cartoonish propaganda site hurt you….

    This from the guy who thinks Trump stole the 2016 election with help from the Russians.

    Yet another infantile, dim-witted, narcissistic, obnoxious, self-reverential and totalitarian Dhimmi-crat. One whose net worth is less than his IQ. I’ve seen squirrels who possessed more intelligence than this twit.

The Onion was on to photoshopped diversity several years ago.

The blind guy is real amateur hour. It must have been an affirmative action person who inserted him.

I wonder if the thought ever entered the foolish minds of these “diversity is our strength” ideologues that their advocacy of diversity will lead to one mono-race of sameness, whereas the conservative philosophy would have maintain the diversity.

Nothing demonstrates an organizational commitment to diversity quite like a downloaded stock photo of people that are not employed by the organization.

Except perhaps the addition to that download the Photoshop images of even more persons with no connection to the organization.

Lets avoid adopting the definition of “Diversity” that the National Democrat Party Intelligence Office uses. According to them a Pole, a Jew, a Russian, a Frenchmen, a Greek and an Armenian are all exactly the same.

Leftists are lazy. Always. Remember when the FBI used a photoshopped image as evidence of the capital “riot” where an image of a naked pornstar was added in the background? They just pulled a photo off the internet instead of using the real image.

Are these percentages worthy of boast?

Women stayed the same…the rest changed less than 1 percent???

That’s worthy of progressive praise these days?

If you’re going to Photoshop, at least do a believable job of it. The shop of the blind dude is laughably bad, with the lighting on him totally different than the others.

henrybowman | July 9, 2021 at 3:29 pm

Well, look, I’m sorry, but the explanation is something completely different.

This is ODNI. A spook shop. This is the sort of place where, when you work for a place like this, you aren’t even supposed to tell people you work for a place like this.

The last thing they’re going to do is to take a real photo of real people who work there, and then doxx them by putting them on the cover of a publicity pamphlet. It makes them targets. It just isn’t done.

So yeah, I can see them using an illustration of a bunch of generic professional models. Adding two disabled people to the photo is tacky, but as long as you’re lying anyway, in for a dollar.

And yes, they made a big point of “we improved our diversity numbers” in the text, but that same text would have been there even if the cover had been a featureless geometrical design. It’s not like they said, “as you can see from our photo on the cover.”

Yeah, viewed as a whole, the exercise is tacky as Butters when Cartman catches him sleeping, but their motives were coming from somewhere else entirely — spook paranoia.

Diversity of individuals, minority of one.

Everything promulgated by the vile, narcissistic and totalitarian Dhimmi-crats is artifice, lies, theatrical props and stagecraft. Designed to propagate a fallacious and self-serving narrative.
