The left really shot themselves in the foot. They go so over the top with sjw-esque things that it becomes almost satirical and bound to have backlash.
How quaint.

This isn't as bad as what the clickbait title makes it out to be.
“There can be 12 white blue-eyed blonde men in a room and they are going to be diverse too because they’re going to bring a different life experience and life perspective to the conversation,” There are two ways to read that: 1) white men can offer individual perspectives as well 2) we don't need minority input because a group of white guys will be different from one another When she apologized, she apologized only on behalf of the potential latter reading of it. To be fair, a lot of people who read it the second way were being willfully stupid so that they could have something to complain about. Others were probably legitimately worried that she was hired as a minority PR woman whose job it was to say to let white guys run things. It's still pretty stupid that she had to make an apology, but I can see how the misunderstanding genuinely might come about. A little over a decade ago, it very easily could have meant the latter reading rather than the former. |

I'm a straight white male and I'm not fucking diverse at all, so that makes sense.

Diversity is code for anti-white, essentially. In nearly every situation I've seen this discussed by "SJWs", they were talking about professions that were disproportionately white and male. Hollywood is the usual target, and there is indeed a lack of racial diversity in starring movie roles. In the movies opening next week, 90% of them have a nearly all white cast. The lone exception is a Tyler Perry movie. The US population is not 90% white. |

In a perfect world, studios wouldn't have to worry about making decisions based on profit, and definitely not because of social pressures. They would just make kickass movies (or laid back, deep introspective ones, I guess). This is why I would be Ok with a movie being mostly white, mostly black, or whatever as long as the artistic product is better for it. I know that when I watch Black Panther, the last thing on my mind will be this movie sure could use more Vietnamese people. I mean that would make it more diverse, but it probably wouldn't make much sense. Obviously we do not live in a perfect world, so the focus on increasing sales and bowing to social pressure will probably not end any time soon.

I'd certainly like for films to focus on artistry, but I know ultimately that market penetration is a priority when they're investing a hundred million dollars into production. Same goes for anything. It's why most big-budget games have relatively simplistic mechanics and writing. Mass appeal. I know where to go to find the products that appeal to me, and I don't begrudge the big guys for trying to increase shareholder value. I don't even really begrudge them for rigging our political system to their benefit; I blame the system for allowing them to do so and want to change it so they can't. But I have to remind myself that as a result of this I always can find something that does appeal to both my interests and my power fantasies. A black person might have a harder time than me in finding something he can self-insert with. Understanding why people ask for diversity can be tough when we are not directly impacted by a lack of it, but not getting mad about it is probably a good first step whether we agree with the calls or not (and I certainly don't always agree).

It's nice for every child to see their own race represented in their favorite show or product line. But there's a difference between wanting that and outright attacking white people. The way things are going are not good at all. Consider the reaction to Apple's VP of Diversity. What she said was reasonable, yet she was still subject to tremendous backlash and hatred. The entire rhetoric around "diversity" has become toxic, divisive, and subversive. Inclining towards the formation of a caste system complete with its own set of untouchables. |

She was correct in her hypothetical once individuality is considered. 12 white men who all look the same can still have elements of diversity. It just wouldn't look like it in a photo.
That's kind of an underlying point she was trying to make. Just because a dozen individuals all look the same does not equate to them being identical in other traits; they're still capable of diversity. It's actually a common point made when speaking against racial stereotypes targeting minorities. Unfortunately she made the miscalculation of presuming that the militants in her audience could grasp that rudimentary concept.... That being said, whoever jumped to the conclusion that her hypothetical statement implied support of white-dominated environments likely gets lost in cardboard boxes.

I think it's important to consider it in context: are there thousands of other positions also being offered by the parent company that are open to everyone, making this specific one constitute a minimal reduction in net hiring chance for the white applicants?
Or are these the only positions they're hiring for at the moment?
In the former case, it's NBD, because typically a white applicant isn't losing out on the job to a mildly less qualified minority applicant, but rather to the fifty other significantly more qualified white applicants.
In the latter case, it certainly is cause for criticism, though I think still probably not fury, since other companies exist that aren't making such decisions, so it doesn't constitute a widespread, systematic bias against the white race, but rather one company doing something kinda shitty. So call that for what it is and then move on.
Basically I ask myself two questions when I see diversity that appears to be done wrong:
"What is the context?"
and
"Is this really worth my anger?"And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not.Darkman124 posted...I think it's important to consider it in context: are there thousands of other positions also being offered by the parent company that are open to everyone, making this specific one constitute a minimal reduction in net hiring chance for the white applicants?

Treating candidates differently because of their skin color is racist and not okay. Regardless of whether or not there's other job opportunities that aren't doing that. If a company wanted to address white poverty by considering only white candidates, your tune would be different.

The "Fate of the Furious" is one of the handful of movies to break the 1 billion dollar threshold in earnings. The cast was mostly non-white.FLUFFYGERM posted...

What you're leaving out here is relative demographic probability of poverty. White people are not predisposed to be poor.
If such a program for 'economically disadvantaged white people' were enacted, as opposed to 'all white people' i'd be fine with it (and really, it'd be very little different from one for 'economically disadvantaged people'). i've always viewed socioeconomic status as the largest individual driver of social inequality.
The reason this is not needed for minorities, is that demographically such a large portion of most minority groups are poor that you don't even need to specify that.
I do think that socioeconomic status is generally the best thing to prioritize for advantaged hiring, regardless.And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not.(edited 2 hours ago)Darkman124 posted...What you're leaving out here is relative demographic probability of poverty.

At least you're consistent. But being consistent and wrong is still wrong. Hiring someone just because of their skin color makes zero sense. I'd be more in favor of having a stronger jobs program for people who are not making enough to make ends meet. That wouldn't require filtering by skin color, which means it's not racist.fire810 posted...Ammonitida posted...

Both of these points are reasonable if we are to assume (outside of outright polling or surveying a test sample) that the majority of Americans only connect or can find a character relative to them by virtue of their skin color, gender, or sexual preference. In other words, is Black Panther going to draw more African American movie goers because the cast is mostly African American. By the same virtue is the John Wick movies attracting more white Americans because of a lead white actor. This assumption is one of the more frustrating things about discussing diversity, because it assume these are the only factors that people consider when watching a movie or consuming some other fiction. Which is/can be erroneous to reality.I find the idea that businesses undermine their own bottom line for emotional reasons unlikely.

That's what you're saying that they're saying. They don't have that level of nuance. To them, the film is diverse because it's mostly non-white. The reaction to the Apple VP of Diversity proves that.- Boards
