Easier way - attend all the "allyship" and DEI meetings instead of doing your job. If confronted say "challenging white supremacy is everyones job!" and insist they should "do the work"

Join Zoom. Use a heart or snaps emoji in the first five minutes. Turn off camera. Leetcode.

Antonio García Martínez:

"Most women in the Bay Area are soft and weak, cosseted and naive despite their claims of worldliness, and generally full of shit. They have their self-regarding entitlement feminism, and ceaselessly vaunt their independence, but the reality is, come the epidemic plague or foreign invasion, they’d become precisely the sort of useless baggage you’d trade for a box of shotgun shells or a jerry can of diesel."

KKK robes? No

talk about white people are evil? yes

can't ask here either but easy to figure out by source

Get referred through the favored group, you meet political requirements

Good! we'll need her in a few years once these kids' anxiety drives them out of the wokeforce

Truth. from the "guidance" page:

"More inclusive: Spouses/partners <> Less inclusive: Wives, husbands, boyfriends, girlfriends"

You - "one of the senior management team said white supremacy does not exist"

article - "he questioned the existence of white supremacy at the company"

Not the same

it's completely religious - prophets, sacred texts, heresies.

Going to quit after vacation this summer by just not showing up. See how long that lasts

This only gets worse if they hadn't. We have hours of these meetings every week. I attend a few hours to keep the target off me and turn off my camera to workout instead.

their explanation: it's "gendered and not inclusive"

Our group has hours of meetings every week. One coworker was PIPd and he immediately joined the group. Less work and off pip now!

The culture here is getting bad. We have an "inclusion council" that hands out these diktats. The word ban list (not blacklist!) is approaching 100 words including husband, housekeeping, normal, hacker and meritocracy. Worse part is we're a security company

edit: "here" is okta, not basecamp

We have an "inclusion council" that hands out these diktats. The ban list (not blacklist!) is approaching 100 words

My company has a list of over 80 banned and 'discouraged' words without listing obvious slurs

"wife" is one of the new ones. Not inclusive

"meritocracy" is a banned word at okta. We have a wiki page with over 80 words banned and 'discouraged' for inclusivity

definition: "Belief in the flawed idea that hard work and talent alone are all that’s needed to achieve success."

Thanks Todd!
