What ideological education are you forced through as an employee in the us?

There are too many to even enumerate. Anyone who has ever worked for a company with 100 or more employees has been required to sit through many HR-mandated trainings that are entirely ideological, since obviously none of these things are scientific.

Just Google them? There are literally hundreds of pages on-line talking about HR training practices. It varies considerably by jurisdiction because a lot of them are pop psychology ideas that have been laundered into corporate America by lawsuits: https://www.google.com/search?q=hr+required+training …

But I'm asking for your personal experience, not generalized lists...

I run my own business and we have 2 employees, so we are exempted. The minimum is 12 (or 15, dep.) employees before the law compels you to do these trainings. It's one of the reasons Molly Rocket will never have more than 11 employees unless we expatriate :P

Ah, okay, thanks for the background! Was curious which topics you ran into that bothered you specifically, but I see they don't affect you

Well, all of it bothers me, there isn't a specific topic. In my opinion, if the government wants to require a training, that it should provide that training, not indirectly force companies to do so.

Also, I strongly object to the idea that certain people's ideas of what's important get trained and others' do not. For example, there is no corporate training that you aren't supposed to kill one of your fellow employees, right. But somehow, we don't consider that negligent.

So in my opinion the law is the law, and citizens are supposed to know it, and if the government wants to inform citizens of the law, it can do that with its own money on its own time. Business should not be liable or responsible for this, it's not _their_ law.

So my objection is to the entire system, not any specific thing that's trained in it. And the reason for that is that if the government does the training, then it can be democratic and debated by the people, instead of what it is now, which is variable and hidden from the public.

Anyway I could rant about this for a long time but as usual, my ideas on this are out of step with both political parties, so, it's pointless to complain about it at some level, since the only foreseeable future still has these "trainings", but they just change over time.

Regardless, I appreciate the deeper dive into your concerns, thank you!
