According to an assistant math professor at the University of Hawaii, any white man with a job that puts him in power over anyone else should quit or at least think about a voluntary demotion. Piper Harron, who graduated from Princeton with a PhD in mathematics, said in an American Mathematical Society blog post last week that it was impossible to achieve equality until white “cis” men gave up their positions of power so they could be filled by minorities.
“Not to alarm you, but I probably want you to quit your job, or at least take a demotion,” wrote Harron. “Statistically speaking, you are probably taking up room that should go to someone else. If you are a white cis man (meaning you identify as male and you were assigned male at birth) you almost certainly should resign from your position of power.”
Harron went on to remind men who “identify as male and were assigned male at birth” that they do not deserve their own success, no matter how hard they worked to obtain it.
“Get off your hiring committee, your curriculum committee, and make sure you’re replaced by a woman of color or a trans person,” she wrote. “Remember that you live in a world where people don’t succeed in a vacuum; most success happens on the backs of others who did not consent. You have no idea how successful you would have been if you were still you, but with an additional marginalization (not white, or not male, or not cis gender, or with a disability, etc).”
Since Harron recognizes that few white cis men will take her advice (since they are evil), she calls on schools to take matters into their own hands.
“What can universities do?” she asked. “Well, that’s easier. Stop hiring white cis men (except as needed to get/retain people who are not white cis men) until the problem goes away. If you think this is a bad or un-serious idea, your sexism/racism/transphobia is showing.”
Ah. The “if you don’t agree with my idiotic proposal, you’re a bigot” argument. Very powerful stuff.
“When the applications come in, remember society makes dominant applicants look better than they are,” she warned. “Society makes marginalized applicants look worse than they are. There is no objectivity. There is no meritocracy.”
Even better. The “if you don’t hire felons and layabouts, you’re a bigot” argument.
Good news, though. If you’re worried about this kind of nonsense gaining acceptance in mainstream society (and, well…who knows anymore?), and you think you’re in danger of losing your job as a white cis man…all you have to do is put on a dress, change your name from Sam to Samantha, and – voila – you move from the oppressor category to the oppressed category like magic!
Seriously, though…has the fall of a civilization ever been so glaringly predictable?
They wouldn’t show up for my job because I have to earn my money and I work hard.
Methinks this has more to do with minority unemployment than racism.
This is actual policy at many places.
If minorities wanted jobs they would have jobs.
Nicknamed “Bucky Stank-Beaver”.
So I heard.
Let’s add Great Society contributions to the SJW ledger: $22 Trillion and roughly 80 welfare programs - paid for by skilled workers/American taxpayers.
THAT’S ENOUGH
Ask Racial Dolezal.
“Cis” vs. “trans”, indeed!!!!
Go jump in the ocean, you creep!!!! You make my skin crawl!!!!
Blacks dominate basketball, running whole countries, not so much. We’re not racist, they will proliferate where they excel.
Well, it is communist Hawaii, after all.

“White Men Should Give Their Jobs to Minorities”
Because it’s worked so well in Zimbabwe - the FORMER breadbasket of Africa...
Molon labe!
... not listen any more to this mentally ill person.
She’s a temporary assistant professor. She wants some older white guy’s tenured position without having to work for it. Typical.
So all you white male Freepers out there should be prepared to give up your jobs...your power...your privilege...to me!
The Perfesser’s educational experiences in her own words:

survived external and internalized misogyny
survived external and internalized racism
2003 – 2009
Princeton University, MA in Mathematics
survived external and internalized misogyny
survived external and internalized racism
survived pervasive and internalized cult of genius mythology
2009 – 2013
Real Life, Single Lady of Arts in Oppression
So...are FReepers starting to wake up yet?
She’s a racist pig.
But beyond that, she is, intellectually, an imbecile. The worthlessness of academe today is personified here...and in literally a million other places.
This ‘professor’ is crazy.
If someone in his position at Princeton feels comfortable airing such views in public, imagine what is being taught in schoolrooms across the land. Authority figures like this are a big part of why prolonged immaturity, career stagnation or thoughts of suicide have become increasing problems for many young white males.
This demographic of American is being told over and over, from kindergarten through college, that they don’t matter. This ‘professor’ ought to apply for work in Zimbabwe, but then he would have to immediately quit anyway and give his job to a PC minority.
