[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw this job post and the emphasis on the importance of a social justice and racial equity background seemed unusual for a position like this. It was wild for a job which features a requirement to have a “politically neutral perspective” to also require infusing all of the council’s work with racial justice principles. As someone who reads a lot of postings from social justice orgs, it feels right in line with those and really unusual for a government position. An interesting read.

If you object to this, that says a lot about you.

Yep, that's a [u]you[/u] thing. When you're used to being on top, equality feels like oppression.

[/quote]So you support discrimination as long as it's the correct kind of discrimination.  Got it.[/quote]

If you wonder why the voters don't support the candidates you support, well, wonder no more.[/quote]I'm a moderate Democrat.  Plenty of people support my candidates.  And even more would do so if my party wasn't tainted by the far left who support discrimination as long as it's the kind they agree with.[/quote]
