They are only concerned about the top 10 percent of white guys. The other 90 percent are invisible.

Also they include Jews with whites. Remove them and the story is a lot different.

White Karens are the worst followed up by black girl bosses. The next 12 years is going to be very tough for them because I know Vance is gonna secure the next election.

Stupid bitch doesn’t deserve a rebuttal. Just needs to be ignored. That will bother her more.

The problem is we let it go on too long. I graduated from college in 1975. When I went to a headhunting firm for an interview, I was flat out told behind closed doors that as White man I’d be hard to place. But if I was a woman or especially a Black or Hispanic woman, I could have my pick of jobs with Fortune companies.

For whatever reason the country and White men in particular put up with that crap. We didn’t stand up to it when it started and push back. Now we have a huge hole to dig the country out of. I’m not sure one four-year term is going to be enough to correct 4-5 decades of this stuff.

from bloomberg:

65% of the population is white. this means less than 10% of available whites were hired.

imagine if the top 500 companies only hired 10% of the available blacks and hispanics... 1.2% of all positions.

this is called DISCRIMINATION and we shouldn't put up with it.

A white woman I knew found it impossible to find a job in public relations, a field in which she was well qualified. Her prospective employers told her that although her credentials were excellent, they had to fill the position with a racial minority. And on one occasion, when the minority didn’t work out, they told her that they had to find another.

In desperation, she considered a name change, translating her English last name to Spanish. But she eventually quit and went into business baking cakes.

Gee, I wonder if the huge swing of young male voters to Trump in 2024 has anything to do with her attempt to diminish the discrimination these males feel? Nice try honey.

There were more Archie Bunkers out there than people want to believe. That’s why the show was so popular. Many of us saw parts of our dads and uncles in Archie. And while he was supposed to be a buffoon, in fact he was more the poster child for the hardworking, socially conservative ‘Silent Majority’ that elected Nixon in a landslide. People Norman Lear would have never met and obviously had great disdain for.

On the other hand, Meathead was supposed to be the epitome of the right-thinking young foil to the Archie’s of the world. In fact, he came across as an overbearing, progressive asshole who had no problem living off Archie’s hard work while denigrating him and his culture at every opportunity. Kind of like Ms. Lipman.

Mr. Lear probably didn’t know it, but he really created a show that resonated with much of America in a way he never intended.

Well, while Harvard seems to have been first over the cliff to ruin its reputation with worthless summas for mastering the deepstate garbage, Yale seems to be playing catch-up.

The Wall Street Urinal is a POS. Toilet paper wasted to print far-left communist garbage.

Appears to be more of a potential candidate for employment in a house of ill repute, not journalism...

Of course, the timing was perfect for Lipman’s dose of nonsense. In the November election, every county in the nation shifted to the right. Wokeness seems to be crumbling. What a time to go solidly against the grain, to rally the PC crowd! What could be more wonderfully contrarian than defending DEI at a time when a presidential administration that was a total DEI freak show (a gay Transportation Secretary who took paternity leave; a health official who was a portly man in a bad wig; an imbecilic black lesbian press secretary; a “genderfluid” nuclear-waste administrator who stole suitcases at airports; and a mushmouthed vice president whose only credential was being Indian, Afro-Jamaican, and female) has yielded to a dream team of men, women, gays, blacks, Hindus, etc., all of whom are presentable, and all of who are there on sheer merit?

Of course they were!

They were the very best at what they did.

They were there to be showcases of DEI.

They did their jobs with utmost excellence.

Quite possibly.
I can see a thirst for revenge over history and Christianity being seen as a polytheistic religion being another religion. I know some think they would be advancing God’s Kingdom by eliminating Christianity. I’ve heard say the words to this effect.

“Baser is a real writer, but he missed on Archie Bunker. The program was such a raving success because so many Americans, men and women alike, identified with Bunker’s populist reaction against the liberal mind virus. Norman Lear, who had intended the opposite, was distraught at what he had done. He had inadvertently tapped into a deep well of discontent.”

You are right. I remember seeing a guy in the 70’s wearing a T-shirt with Archie Bunker’s image and the caption: “In your heart, you know he’s right.”
