Didn’t take companies long to stop pretending like they care. We are fucked.

    Just hire the best person for the job, regardless of skin color.

    Good thing there’s absolutely no evidence of racism when it comes to hiring people, am I right?

    But do tell me you think a resume by a woman named LaShonda has a chance of being taken as seriously by a white HR manager than a resume by a woman named Mary often enough for this to not be a problem.

      “48% have been asked to prioritize diversity over qualifications”

      I have now shown you evidence of racism when it comes to hiring people. I would appreciate if you would not make such a statement in the future.

        What you call racism is actually society pushing back against racism. We would all appreciate it if you stopped supporting bigotry now and forever.

          Telling one to stop hiring individuals based on their race isn’t pushing back against racism, it’s just racism.

            You just won’t concede that racism exists, and has existed in this country since its founding, will you?

            I mean, that’s the crux of the argument.

            Either our country’s education system failed you terribly and you’re just incapable of continued learning, or you know fhe history and don’t care.

        You didn’t “show evidence” you utter fucking cabbage – you just went conclusion shopping on Google to find the first fucking piece of unsourced “trust me bro” garbage that you thought would support your opinion.
