Yeah, all the connotations for "trash artist" that I can come up aren't positive.
The guy actually expects hiring professionals to go to his web site and read some sort of manifesto prior to recruiting him. With most job openings attracting hundreds of candidates, that's simply not going to happen, unless it's expected in cucked areas of the western USA.
Other observations:
- I'd love to know what the ACA is in terms of the 12-step recovery program. I doubt this stands for "Affordable Care Act' (aka Obamacare).
- Beggar and Trash Artist were positions that appear to be part of his involvement in what looks like Occupy Los Angeles. I'd love to know how either of those translate into marketable, professional skills.
- It also appears that he never received a degree or certificate from Santa Monica College. While this in itself may not be an issue -- many people attend a school and later go elsewhere without completing a program of study/major -- the quote below that reads, "Degrees can be granted, Mastery can only be acquired," comes across as a snarky, arrogant, and passive-aggressive way to say, "I didn't graduate because lower-level degrees are overrated and unnecessary." He could have just as easily reported "General education" and the dates to indicate study that didn't lead to graduation.
I'd like to think that this type of "professional"
(and I used that term loosely for this individual) resume is the result of living somewhere with hiring managers that wouldn't bat an eye at these particular buzzwords, unfortunately. This is an area that's known for people being hired more to fulfill diversity quotas and less to find someone who will do the job properly. One hopes that hiring managers in non-cucked locations would immediately shit-can any resume with either "beggar" or "trash artist" listed as supposed work experiences and look for anyone else with better credentials.
Here is an archive of the guy's personal site in case he decides to go into DFE Mode;

In other news, I caught the tail end of a radio interview featuring an activist pointing out how the state supposedly has a 14% population of African Americans and how they only make up 5% of the state police. The implication was that the state police should also be 14% African American.
I wish someone would have pointed out to the activist that the people who are currently spouting "#ACAB #Fuck12 #DefundThePolice" and calling current African American police officers sellouts or Uncle Toms aren't exactly helping recruiting efforts. If African American activists want more African American police, maybe they need to be more encouraging and supportive. Who wants to join the force only to be reviled, ridiculed, and scorned as not being Black enough?
Edited to add: One last thought I almost forgot. Some pages back, someone posted Asheville's (presumable in North Carolina) resolution in favor of reparations. I wonder if this is one of those non-binding resolutions that has zero force of law and is little more than symbolic virtue signalling to look good to like-minded citizens and outsiders. My city passed a similar non-binding resolution reaffirming human rights shortly after George Floyd died. It has no legal force and it was likely passed solely to placate those demanding the city take a stand against what happened. I suspect the same is true for Asheville.
