It’s so hard to get a job. I’ve had recruiters straight up tell me that firms are hoping for a woman or a “person of color” for their job postings. Shit sucks fam.

Retribution will happen soon enough. That shit is ridiculously illegal if that's true

That's what it will take. Including employers who discriminate against white males.

Don't hate yourself. Whatever your color or gender.

you're doing it all wrong.

You need to identify as trans and if they dont hire you, threaten to sueeeee.

There's a scene in the eighties movie "Secret of My Success," where Michael J. Fox is trying to get a job in New York. He keeps getting turned down and finally informs the interviewer that whatever he wants, he can be it. The guy looks at him, then says, "Can you be a minority woman?"

Seriously, I'm sorry to hear this. Good luck for the future.

Move to the midwest, then. You won't encounter that kind of thing where it's majority white and gender politics don't exist.

Perhaps contact Senator Elizabeth Warren. She has experience in becoming a native American.

Would be neat to see a conservative job posting board for US companies.

Very sad to hear of your difficulty. We're all in the same boat. Whether male, female, black, white, yellow, red, etc... We Americans voted for President Trump, THE BEST AMERICAN PRESIDENT EVER! He gets it. Gets the job done! Yet nearly 4 years later, he continues taking the punches for us all. Young man, it's not over. American dream will not be hijacked by criminals!

Record your conversations and sue the fuck out of them.

I worked in staffing for many years, this is a major EEO violation. Whether it is a third party staffing company or third party recruiter, if they are dumb enough to say that to you, get it on record and take it to a lawyer.

Also, check out unwoke.hr. and ZipRecruiter (CareerBuilder, Monster and indeed are over-saturated and cater to employers not employees).

Finally. What part of the country are you in and what do you do?

Don't give up.

Fuck off with that SJW bullshit. Grow a pair of fucking balls. Being a white man is awesome.

Dude, jobs suck. If you have to work for a living, as all of us do, your best bet is to take a bullshit job while you learn a skill, trade or craft to ultimately end up working for yourself. Plumbers, repairmen, fabricators and welders kill everywhere they go.

Just think of a service you wouldnt mind providing --that people with money dont want to fuck with themselves-- and figure it out.

You can learn how to do most anything on youtube to start and then apprentice til you get a license or certification if its needed.

Just tell them that it's cool because you identify as a woman. You could be masculine presenting, transgender lesbian.
