All hiring was diversity hiring since it is illegal to discriminate. This limited new era of enforced diversity hiring isn’t diversity hiring it is just a box being check marked / tokenism hiring.
This is a general statment. note I haven’t had my coffee yet. and by coffee I mean my vanilla iced chai tea latte.
Pretty dumb argument. Ya ‘wait on your turn in your colour category’. Not racist at all. But not surprised this is coming from a sexist / racist dirtbag.
Here’s the inevitable drawback to the Rooney Rule though.
Let’s say you run a company that uses the Rooney Rule. You have a critical position that you must fulfil for continued growth, success, etc.
So you begin the interview process. But there’s just one hiccup: You do not meet standards under the Rooney Rule because you cannot find a “minority person” who a) fits the criteria for said position and/or b) even wants to interview for said position.
Thus, under the Rooney Rule, you cannot hire for said critical position under the Rooney Rule. What do you do?
Sure, you can always hire but are you prepared for the inevitable social backlash for not meeting Rooney Rule criteria? Are you prepared for inevitably being labeled something which is not true just because you cannot meet Rooney Rule standards?
Or, worse, let’s assume you have two candidates, one of whom is minority status but meets only Rooney Rule standards but does not meet the criteria for the role which you are hiring for.
Do you A) hire the unqualified minority to avoid social backlash to meet Rooney Rule standards and risk your business or B) reject the unqualified minority candidate and risk social backlash and the inevitable resulting damage to your business and reputation?
Problem with the Rooney Rule is that it is designed to fail from the outset because it requires criteria to be met that may not be able to be met.
Or you could stop feeling entitled to a job you are not qualified for that is earmarked for someone else.
It was never “your” job that is being given to a black woman, it’s a black woman’s job that you have no entitlement to.
Oh I see… So being of a different colour makes you automatically qualified? That is entitlement at its finest.
Neither was hers for just being ‘black’. Get over yourself. This mentality is why the next phase of western civilization will have a ‘caste system’. Like in some third-world countries. What you actually want is mediocrity.
Oh I see… So being of a white colour makes you automatically qualified? That is entitlement at its finest.
Western civilization already does have a caste system or did you forget centuries of slavery and jim crow laws?
You do understand the sheer stupidity of that statement right? I mean I know you are a troll but even you can’t be that dumb.
The hiring should be on merit. You are the one inserting color and race into the argument. Is that simple enough for you?
If you are not qualified for a job, you don’t get that job, hun.
“This CMO job selling curly hair beauty products to black women is looking for a black woman with an MBA and 10 years experience”
Brian in the mail room: I HAVE A DEGREE IN ARGUING ON REDDIT WHY DIDNT THEY GIVE ME THE JOB.
That are now both gone….
Hahahahaha
Google “redlining”
I suggest you also Google ‘victimhood mentality’…
Google it yourself, you’re the one crying about not being handed a job you’re not qualified for.
No need. I actually made it very clear. Job selection should be based on merit. Nothing else. But what you want is to insert race and color into everything to feel ‘qualified’. Mediocrity at its finest.
Signed: a POC (since you’re obsessed with color and race so much).
Tell me you wouldn’t cry foul if the tables where turned…
This literally already exists everywhere I dont need to imagine it this is why all your guys arguments are so dumb.
“Imagine if the tables were turned!”
They are! Everywhere! It’s called real life lmso
Why do you think there are so few women and poc working at blizzard right now and getting denied promotions?
EDIT:
Your example is also bad because black hair products are unique to black customers. It’s a specialty market. Exercise is not limited to white dudes only, even though they have dominated the idea of exercise for decades.
Black women can work out.
White men aren’t suddenly growing 4C kinky curls.
The block of text at bottom of forum’s. This is the text.
“We’re on a quest: bring our dreams to life and craft the most epic entertainment experiences, ever. Hard work, iteration and polish go into the Blizzard “secret recipe,” but the most important ingredients come from talented people who share our vision. If that sounds like you, join us.”
Sorry the word means to be born with the ability to do.
This post reminded me of this sketch.
Interesting that millions of people want to immigrate to the U.S. every year then, guess western civilization did something right huh?
The idea that to be progressive you can’t ever be a hypocrite is just a moving goalpost invented by reactionaries to gotcha.
Progressivism has always needed to be hypocritical.
Espouse nonviolence, but punch N(achos), because Nachos will never listen to anything but violence.
