F ‘em. I will lower-case “ap”.

The AP said white people in general have much less shared history and culture, and dont have the experience of being discriminated against because of skin color. So we aim to fix that by discriminating against all you crakkas!

It's not systemic, it's concocted. Unless it is the extreme racism on the Left, and that's real as this exposes.

The AP apparently doesn't seem to know or care where the word ''slave'' comes or just how much my ancestral people, the Irish were discriminated against.

Pointless pandering that effectively does absolutely nothing. Pretty par for the course for the left.

A good example of racism against white people right there. Diminish them and make them inferior to “Blacks.”
To: Trump20162020
We agree that white peoples skin color plays into systemic inequalities and injustices, and we want our journalism to robustly explore these problems, John Daniszewski, the APs vice president for standards, said in a memo to staff Monday. But capitalizing the term white, as is done by white supremacists, risks subtly conveying legitimacy to such beliefs. It reads like the over the top prose of an Ayn Rand villain. And yet, here we are.

and [White's] dont have the experience of being discriminated against because of skin color. Tell that to my Dad! He was inserted into the manager's slot of several offices of a federal agency in order to fix problems caused by the previous managers. One of those offices was the Hollywood branch. So these were quite visible offices.
When he came near to retirement, an office opened up in a small Arizona town where he could have been closer to his grand kids. He asked for the position as a favor. He certainly was qualified. But those in charge who had benefited from his superior management skills chose an untested minority woman instead. Dad took early retirement in disgust. On the other hand, she washed out within the year.
This happened almost 30 years ago. So White's have been discriminated against for a long time.
