I don't feel any ill will towards anyone who has a different amount of melanin in their skin. However, after all these protests I'm taking the lesson that I can't trust a lot of them. Trust is being destroyed and it takes a long time to earn it back.
100% true for me. Now I look at black people and think "hmm, this person might accuse me of racism and post it on facebook". So I am starting to avoid interacting with them. I am doing this because I am afraid.
Exactly what happened with #metoo, some vindictive feminists ruined a lot of job prospects for women as everyone is wary of being accused of sexual assault and having their lives ruined
And this is whats about to happen with trannys and gays. Supreme court ruling made them able tonsue people for a perceived wrong with no evidence... Or for an honest firing because they feel slighted. Its Red Flag laws for jobs.
So, people will just avoid hiring trannys and gays just to avoid the trouble. Who did the ruling hurt? Gay and trans people. Whatever your feelings are about said groups, it still stands true that this ruling looked like a win but will be a net loss for them. Freedom is the only way to have a peaceful, happy society.
Yes in my company me and a woman were both going for a promotion. As metoo became bigger in the media and it was around Kavanaugh. She stopped being approved for work travel which is often with the execs. They were scared. Of course Im male so I could go. They got to know me better and bam I got the promotion. Now I travel with execs all the time. They just dont want to take the risk. She didnt help herself by texting colleagues at night. Their wives are like who is texting? The young girl at work. Meanwhile Id call at night and discuss for an hour no problem.
From what I see it's more likely to be a white woman that does this to you. They don't want to miss a virtue signalling opportunity or a chance to feed the crocodile.
No all women do it. We even have employees female of all colors Who are shitrybempliyees. S SOON AS THEY GET IN HOT Water they call osha or the state. The co.olaint protect them for 30 days from firing.
How many companies avoid hiring someone - not because they aren't qualified, but because they know they will face a lawsuit if they have to fire the person? From talking to a friend in HR at a very large company the phenomenon is real. From what she has told me, from the outside it looks like a racial glass ceiling, but from the inside, rather than fire someone, the company promoted them beyond their capability, into a job where they couldn't do too much damage.
Yup. This was actually studied with the ADA. Turns out the pre-ADA level of employment for disabled people was HIGHER compared to after the ADA was implemented. Turns out employers started to view disabled employees as a higher-risk compared to non-disabled employees so they simply avoided hiring them. The end result was that disabled people were made worse off. One good example of a well intended law with unintended consequences.
I am responsible for interviews and some hiring at the company I work for in middle TN. We use a temp service to staff us but we get the final say. If I sense they are the woke type I will give my boss the signal and he knows this is a hard no. If the temp agency asks why they didn't get the job we simply say we felt they were not a good fit end of story.
Some variant of "Is there anything else you'd like to tell us about yourself?" can be a gold mine. People can tell you about stuff that pertains to the job, but doesn't fit in the legally defined boxes you are allowed to ask about, or they can shoot themselves in the foot. We tended not to hire very many of the people that stayed silent for that question.
Half black friend of mine called me racist when I casually brought up aunt jemima.. even tried to back off and just agree to try and avoid losing a friend over it, pisses me off she stooped so low so quick.
Anyway I was having a 4th of July pool/party bbq, cancelled the event (due to covid) then sent out private invites to people I want there, without her inclusion.

Sorry about the loss of a friend, I'm pretty sure we all have lost one or two in this war.
I've been standing my ground on Aunt Jamima. The entire premise is bullshit. So we are now supposed to belive that racists put a black woman on syrup bottles for other racists to purchase. Because if there is one thing racists want more than anything is to see a smiling black woman on the label of their syrup as they eat breakfast. Yes my friends, racists want nothing more then pictures of black people in their house.
When I point this out to my liberal friends they actually say, yes racists want black people on their products so they can still feel like slave owners. (Please be sure to read that in Lewis Black's voice, it makes it sound even dumber then it already does)
Remind me again how many Black Americans die every year of obesity-related illnesses?
So we remove the smiling black lady from the label, but leave in the metric shit-ton of HFCS/sugar and artificial flavors/colors.
It's like a culinary metaphor for the Leftish way - rally the outrage mob to push for a meaningless symbolic change, while ignoring the aspect of the situation that's actually killing significant numbers of Blacks.
She's disingenuous and always ready to play the victim card, too much emotional labor aka doesn't want to have to rationalize any positions she has, just be able to claim them because "emotions" she was ready to call me a racist after her fiance attacked me on Facebook earlier in the week and I didn't hold back, wrecked him with some facts/statistics
My dude, best not to reply with statistics and such on Facebook. Best to stay well clear of the BLM topic with anyone black. It's touching on a massive chip on shoulder that most can't think logically about.
Dude thanks for sharing that discussion. I probably wouldn't of shared that news with her though with her being half black. She sounds unhinged. It's like Uncle Ben Rice, a wholesome product and brand that actually challenges stereotypes.
Aunt Jemimah was even a real person. They cancelled a popular depiction of a real historical black woman, it has nothing to do with minstrel shows. Just lashing out now.
yep and her descendants are also upset about it, who are these woke people to say what she would have wanted? I bet she was proud of the brand she helped to build..
Notice he said though that only 5 out of 50-60 were actually black. This is just more of the distinction between Antifa and BLM being intentionally blurred by the worst turds in both groups.

I remember all the news articles about how CEO's and high level management started refusing to train female underlings because of the accusations.
I'm not sure what they expected, people don't like taking risks with their livelihood, especially at those levels.
They're just being smart. When an ACCUSATION can ruin your life, you learn not to take chances.

Yeah but for white women you can still use the "krazy karen" meme in your defense.
No all women do it. We even have employees female of all colors Who are shitrybempliyees. S SOON AS THEY GET IN HOT Water they call osha or the state. The co.olaint protect them for 30 days from firing.
Yes. There are blacks going out of their way to be kind and speak. I've actually made a Couple of friends during this. They are not on board the b.s.
lmao

Happens all the time
That's what they want. They want to instill hate and fear. They want to make racism where there previously was none.
Yup, exactly. They are trying to turn Americans against each other.

Stage 4 Feminism that has metastasized into intersectionality. For friendships, the diagnosis is almost always fatal.
My dude, best not to reply with statistics and such on Facebook. Best to stay well clear of the BLM topic with anyone black. It's touching on a massive chip on shoulder that most can't think logically about.
Emotional labor - that phrase makes me irate!
Dude, having less retard libs in your life is always a great thing. Don't sweat it. She loves being a victim.
Dude thanks for sharing that discussion. I probably wouldn't of shared that news with her though with her being half black. She sounds unhinged. It's like Uncle Ben Rice, a wholesome product and brand that actually challenges stereotypes.
And Uncle Ben was a trailblazer in quick cook rice, very useful.

Oh man, laugh till you cry this is tragedy and comedy.
And this is the goal: divide us all.
Notice he said though that only 5 out of 50-60 were actually black. This is just more of the distinction between Antifa and BLM being intentionally blurred by the worst turds in both groups.
I've seen several of them. It sure does the trick.
And there are literally millions and millions of black men. Seriously? Some of them friends of mine
