White Male Anger

Yup, white women are very low on the totem pole in the oppression olympics. Remember how a white woman falsely accused a black man of assault in Tulsa, which sparked off a huge race riot/massacre and burning down of black businesses?

White women have a LOT they should be ashamed of and need to pay reparations for. They only get about +0.5 bonus points, for their vaginas only, in the oppression olympics, and should be near dead last for diversity quotas due to their historical privilege.

I am a white male job hunting and there are now Diversity and Inclusion recruiters. The jobs are not posted and they only reach out to women and minority women is a double plus.

Job is no posted anywhere, and recruiters are told no white makes.

Annoying as I see women and such post up on LinkedIn they got a new job that I should have at least interviewed for.

And whites women are now being stigmatized. But preferred also being given, gbkt, vets, etc

A middle aged straight white male who is not a veteran can’t find work. In fact can’t even see the jobs as not posted.

Also it starts in 11 grade as a white male can’t even get into a good college



I graduated grad school in the sciences and know of one minority female in the same program who went to go to work in pharma as a scientist right out of school (extremely difficult job to obtain). In less than 3 years she's now a senior scientist. That's absurd. That's all without doing any post-doc of any kind and also having no prior industry experience. If you're white and male, just to get a scientist position in pharma you better have publications out the wazoo in top journals, and you better have 5+ years of post-doc experience in a prestigious lab. Then you'll only start as a scientist, and it'll take another 5-10+ years of experience to reach a senior scientist position. You can also forget about getting a tenure track position these days in academia if you're a white dude. It's ridiculous pandering to diversity without requiring people to put in the time and training like other groups. The person I know that rocketed up to a position like that also came from an UMC family - her dad was a professor and mom was a physician. As if she came from an underprivileged household my behind. My mom was a social worker for the state making $31k per year and my dad was a mechanic making $45k per year. I guess I had more privilege though growing up in a very blue collar home than a minority person who grew up in a 6 figure income household.

Asian men also face the same discrimination, as was revealed by the google lawsuits. This is why China and Asia will be much better in the future when it comes to innovation and GDP growth - they hire the best people possible and don't care about diversity crap. I've even seriously considered moving East to take my skills elsewhere where aptitude and skills are rewarded, and people don't get promoted for identity issues. Plenty of opportunities exist in China, Singapore, and Korea these days. The vast majority of economic growth will be in Asia in 21st century anyway as they blow away the US.


Do you really think people with options will choose to immigrate to a totalitarian country that has no problem imprisoning foreigners on a political whim that randomly ruins powerful people for speaking ill of leadership? Good luck with that


Spoken like someone who doesn't work in science. You'd be very, very surprised at how much China is currently sniping talent away from the US. They're offering people sometimes over $1M USD to come and open up labs. Biotech is blowing up in China. But keep sticking your head in the sand. China's GDP will be double the size of the US' by about 2050. Everything is moving east, and it'll only get worse as Eastern economies focus on hiring talent, while the US and the west are stuck on hiring people for identity.



If you love Asia so much, why don't you go back? China is benefiting from the work and educational systems of the US and Western world. They are incapable of innovating. The US certainly needs to stop hiring based on identity, but China will be a problem because it is a cheater (to the tune of $600 billion in stolen IP every year) - which game theory tells us, wins in these situations - not because it has anything of substance to offer the world. Japan, however, IS an innovative country (and culture), hopefully they become the superpower in the East.


You don't know crap. Because westerners are the only people on Earth capable of innovating. China, without question, is now the world leader in quantum telecommunications and is now eclipsing the US and the rest of the west in the artificial intelligence race. China invests in research and development, and hires the best people. No one gets extra points for identity crap. Go read up on how labs are funded in China. The use objective measures to evaluate candidates for funding research. The west is increasingly becoming a has been, and the focus on identity politics will only hasten the downfall because all it does is create tribalism and promotions based on who you sleep with, what you have between your legs, and your race. Whether your western ethnocentric ass likes it or not, this is the reality of what's coming:



People with talent will move east for work, because they'll get jobs for their skills and not for identity's sake.


make the same graph per capita and it looks far different. Who cares though- do you think people in western Europe care that their empires are gone and wish they could go back to bankrupting themselves to maintain dominance or do you think they are enjoying a high quality of life because their countries prioritize their citizens

False. Countries with the largest GDP overall can still easily leverage much more of their buying and market power, regardless of GDP per capita. As if Luxembourg or Hong Kong carries more economic might than the US because their GDP per capita is higher than the US. No.

Spoken like an American with a chapped ass that they're losing the race and will continue to lose.

You should have joined the military, then. Vets are sucking up ALL the government jobs.

+1 I'm an Asian female, and I've been told don't bother applying for some of the government jobs because they all go to vets, most who are unqualified for the role. I've worked in the private sector in that space for 20 years.

Why cant you son look to female role models? Girls have had to look to male role models for years! My nephew an avid skier just wanted a famous woman skier because that is his role model! If you are showing him old stuff he will get thr ideas that only white men can do stuff and save the day.

There have been strong female role models in the media, it's just that the media does it horribly these days and shoves the diversity crap down your throat. They used to do it better back in the old days. Evvvvvvvvvvvveryone loves a strong female character like Ripley from Aliens, or a strong black character like Sidney Poitier. But these days, they do diversity for diversity's sake, and it is lame as hell. It is phony grandstanding to cater toward an agenda. Everyone can see through the flimsy efforts.

Agreed. It is forced and contrived. Every ad these days features a white man/black woman couple. This is a really tiny percentage of marriages IRL. A white/Asian couple would be more realistic. But, no, the media, government and corporate America seems to have this rabid compulsion to pander to black people this year and earn their SJW points.

I don't disagree with this at all. But, I hardly think they are "atop the society hierarchy." And it's not a misery olympics. Women, even white women, still are paid less and suffer many of the other injustices mentioned here: harassment, assault, not given equal opportunities, etc. Things are certainly better for that demographic now, I admit. But, it's not like WW have the same opportunities white men have always had.

Corporate America cares about the money. They always have. So when you see more diversity in advertising, it is recognizing the reality of who is spending money, period. That's why the cleaning product ads are STILL all directed at women.

+1. No group is completely innocent. Young black men kill each other at an alarming rate and commit a large percentage of this country’s violent crimes. Should they not be held accountable because of history? Every group sucks in some way.

It's not lame as hell. Representation matters (as the one other PP demonstrates through her lamenting her son doesn't see enough boys in his shows). Watch the old movies and TV. I still love them but they are cringey as hell. And definitely do NOT represent across all spectrums. You had your token woman or black person (it was the rare production that wasn't like this). And I know, in the 70s, I def wondered why there wasn't more women / girls depicted in certain roles.

If you think representation doesn't matter, it's probably b/c you haven't experienced it on any significant level. 200 years of white, male, (I think all Christian) presidents and vice presidents, for example . . . . and some folks lost their minds over a black president and now black female VP. The ones complaining are losing their death grip on what is representative of this country.

There have been strong female role models in the media, it's just that the media does it horribly these days and shoves the diversity crap down your throat. They used to do it better back in the old days. Evvvvvvvvvvvveryone loves a strong female character like Ripley from Aliens, or a strong black character like Sidney Poitier. But these days, they do diversity for diversity's sake, and it is lame as hell. It is phony grandstanding to cater toward an agenda. Everyone can see through the flimsy efforts.

Characters being changed to female all the time. It’s ridiculous to swing so far to the other side so all I can show my son is old tv shows or movies with a boy lead.


Why cant you son look to female role models? Girls have had to look to male role models for years! My nephew an avid skier just wanted a famous woman skier because that is his role model! If you are showing him old stuff he will get thr ideas that only white men can do stuff and save the day.

Your son wont break if he is shown women or POC as lead actors!

I hate when someone says it had "swung too far the other way" where we were you when yhe great white male way was the only way?


My child was not here then obviously and that is what matters. He has all female teachers, 3 woman drs, two female karate instructors. I want him to have male role models too and maybe I’m in some bubble, but not seeing modern masculine role models for him in media.


That’s on you then. There are plenty of male peds and karate instructors. There are also a number of cartoons with male leads (Diego, Handy Manny, Fireman Sam, and the list goes on). If your child is older there is Harry Potter, the Marvel series, Star Wars, and the list goes on. I think you are being purposefully ignorant.

Yup, white women are very low on the totem pole in the oppression olympics. Remember how a white woman falsely accused a black man of assault in Tulsa, which sparked off a huge race riot/massacre and burning down of black businesses?

White women have a LOT they should be ashamed of and need to pay reparations for. They only get about +0.5 bonus points, for their vaginas only, in the oppression olympics, and should be near dead last for diversity quotas due to their historical privilege.

No “diversity quotas” or reparations are happening. Deal with it.

False. Nasdaq literally just imposed a diversity quota based on identities only. Try to keep up!
