- Discrimination against individuals doesn’t matter
- I should accept being discriminated against
- Objecting to this makes me the problem
- This is somehow not hypocrisy
I grew up in generational poverty, worked myself to the bone for two decades, ensure fairness in my own decisions, and proposed structural alternatives. Apparently none of that matters because I look like people in power.
There’s no productive conversation left to have here.
You never had to worry about being the first female manager someone has had. You never had to worry about being judged unfairly because of your accent. You never had to deal with your colleagues saying mildly racist things to your face and expecting you to be ok with it.
And nobody is taking your success away! All I’m saying is that you’re gonna have to wait a bit longer because it’s not your turn anymore.
But apparently that’s not enough, so you’re throwing a fit about it.
And again, your “structural solutions” are platitudes. They don’t work.
