PromKwing··on Tesla sales plummet in the UK, France, and Germany
Contributes to what? Tesla's failing sales?
PromKwing··on Air traffic controllers pushed to the brink
> Are you saying there is not a single non white male among the veteran group?

I am not saying that and yes that would be obvious. That doesn't negate anything about how it's on the "diversity hires" and not the veterans pointed out in this thread, lol

It's all just speculation.

> The point is, people in this position should be hired based on merit regardless of their race, sex, or anything else.

What's your proof that people aren't hired based on merit regardless of their race, sex, or anything else though? Just wild speculation on your part? lol

> but it seems to have been perverted into caricaturical discrimination _for_, even favoring a diverse incompetent candidate over a non-diverse competent one.

That's a crazy claim told without any proof. I don't see any studies, sources linked in your comment. That just sounds like your own anecdotal perspective.

Right, so if you're not the hiring manager, how do you know someone is a "diversity hire" though? Isn't it racist to just assume someone was hired as a "diversity hire"? Most importantly, people tend to hire people like themselves, if the hiring manager is white it's most likely they'll hire someone who is white regardless if they're more qualified, but I doubt anyone ever questions those hires.

Why not throw the veterans under the bus as well though? Nope, it's just the "diversity hires" that are the problem lol.

Yikes. What a weird thing to try to make it about race. So to clarify, if you're not white and male, then obviously you're just not serious about a job because you're a "diversity" hire and not a serious person. Got it.
PromKwing··on DuckDuckGo “down-rank sites associated with Russian disinformation”
Yikes. Imagine replacing media outlets with a right-wing youtuber and thinking that's far more reliable.
