Or conversely, companies with high profit margins can afford to take on affirmative action hires.
And don’t forget, that lack of “diversity” is only a problem when the entity in question is majority white, majority male, or especially combination of the two. If it’s majority-black or majority-female, there’s no need for any enforced “diversity”. We see the same thing concerning majority-white neighborhoods, schools, and nations.
Looks like Apple has the same 'problem' as the USA itself: it was founded and built by 'old white guys', or at least by young whites guys who grew older.
All these complainers should just go find the nations and corporations founded and built by old guys with different skin colors.
Why is Yahoo so down on my culture?
I hear how bad it is that white people are successful or "cling" to notions like the Constitution, rule of law, self-sufficiency, etc.
I've read several liberal bigots say that one day "they'll get old and die off anyway".
Racism and genocide in one simple thought. Just because they are too lazy to pull the trigger doesn't mean that marginalization and deathpanels aren't in their fantasy.
Today we are seeing the homofascists call for the excommunication of anyone who donated to the wildly successful referendum preserving traditional marriage in California.
They can't win at the ballot box but they can muscle over those who won't stand up to them. And it could be any DNC-"identity group" that comes gunning for the "establishment" (old guard).
Time to sell Apple stocks.
I’m beginning to understand how Europe went from the Roman Empire to the Dark Ages.
They would prefer Afro?
I don’t see the problem. After all, those “old white guys”, didn’t build Apple; right Dear Leader?
In today’s liberal economy business is evaluated for it’s
tokens alone. No matter how successful a business is if
it has no tokens, it’s deemed a failure. And it’s a
one way street.
we really need a world where education, medicine, science and technology are all delivered by affirmative action hires. Good idea! Look what it did for government.
Believe me, a lot of high-tech colleges and universities are aware of this and are actively recruiting women. Indeed, they are getting the type of reverse discrimination that blacks often get on admissions committees. If you are female and can fog a mirror, apply for a scholarship in a computer tech field...your chances of getting one are pretty good.
Oh oh the PC crowd is firing the first shots in another war with corporate America. The NFL has been brought to their knees so Apple’s next. Ironically, liberals go nuts over Apple products and that company bends over backwards to be politically correct. Gees, liberals are never happy and always angry. Destroying successful people and their companies is all that seems to bring them joy these days. It’s a shame Steve Jobs is no longer with us. I’m sure he would have read that Yahoo article and would have told the PC crowd to jump in a lake.
Really? Got the newest and bestest smart phone? That's what's important? Oh forgot, the latest sneakers that people stampede for. Sometimes I kinda get why the Islamists are so pissed off at western civilization. Nah! They are just savages. Kill them all and let us buy the next stupid product. At least it provides jobs.
Interesting to see our Nobel Peace prize winner is starting a new war in Syria as he did Lybya. Too little and too late. But then he is a "community organizer" so he knows all. Typical. Surprising to hear that his Defense Secretary and other retired generals are speaking out and told him to move on Syria 2 years back.
It's time to play "Cowboys and Muslims". Let's see if any of the Sunday talk shows talk about the Nolan beheading of a woman at his "work place" right here in the USA.
Personally, I'm applying for CCW. Even California is now issuing them. Need info for small effective side arm. Understand that smaller barrels and smaller caliber means less efficacy. Got suggestion?
It’s true. There is a dearth of African American High Tech workers, from entry level technician to Principle Engineers, 30 years and I can only remember seeing three and two of them were actually very dark skinned Sik Indians.
Reason is probably because our base public educational system plays to and enables African American victimization.
Seems women in fashion and marketing don't count. Even though Apple is devolving into a primarily fashion and marketing business.(Your phone can never be too skinny or too expensive)
Now if they could just get the male execs out of their doofus hipster untucked shirts and into some Spanx for major presentations.
Not any kind of problem -- in a free country.
Do these idiots know how many silicon valley companies are run by asians and women? And they have many asians and women working for them? Or maybe asians are no longer considered minorities because they’re so successful?
Rush Limbaugh’s love of all things Apple is actually a brilliant stealth plan to undermine Apple’s success.
You never hear liberals complains about “lack of diversity” when it comes to black gangs.
Apple is global company. Globally, whites are just under 15% of the population, and the only race declining as a percentage of global population. The ONLY countries on the planet that have positive rates of immigration are majority white countries in North America and Europe. By 2050, whites will not be a majority in the US, and by the end of this century will be less than 10% of the global population.
STFU with your provincial “minority/majority” inanities and what whites have to do to give in to your demands. NO MORE. Globally, whites have nothing to concede to any race, and it is past time we stopped listening to “minorities” in majority white countries making demands to further diminish white accomplishments and culture.
