You are a little off here.. this isn’t about white/black or whatever, this is about Liberals putting everyone into boxes and telling you that you fit into X mold because of your box and you can’t do X because of your box.. The racial component to this is just the current box.. just like the box has been subdivided even more.. the next thing we’ll see is boxes for ugly vs beautiful, fat vs thin, long hair vs short hair..

The English are the "white males" of the UK. The Celts are considered honorary Third World "indigenous peoples."
Interestingly, our own neo-Confederates base their claim to "Southron nationhood" on their Celtic identity. But don't expect them to criticize their Communist-supported brethren, or even ask why they are treated differently!

Not Guilty. But I would like to be an unindicted co-conspirator.

“Wow...I wouldnt turn her down.”
I don’t think many people would. LOL. I’ll bet they are taking a long second look and whoever turned her down head is going to roll.

Don’t forget diversity which only prolongs the pain and does not work.

Even thought I was qualified; I was turned down for a small business loan because I am married to a white man.
Update: Still married to him. Coming up on 24 years in Oct.
To: Stoat
You’re Caucasian and your long-dead forbearors oppressed other long-dead people?
Well, F-— You!

academia)

We do the same nonsense.
A friend of mine named Carlos was offered a job at HUD. They liked him quite a bit during the interview. But upon looking at his application closely, they discovered that he wasn’t Hispanic. His Mother simply liked the name Carlos. HUD retracted the offer!

I wonder if "minor legend" business success here in Oklahoma
caused that problem.
IIRC, a highly successful bidness in Oklahoma was started with
SBA loans taken out by a lady (using "Native American" status)
to start what became a booming bidness run by her (dare I say)
"paleface" spouse and workforce.
NO FLAMES PLEASE!!!
Plenty of Okies from across the spectrum of "Indian" to "white"
to "black" start and run a lot of successful bidnesses.
But I wonder if this one example caused the SBA to shut down the
"spouse as a front" avenue to loans based on some sort of "oppressed"
or "minority" status.

Good thing Juan Trippe was working in the private sector, building
American’s aviation industry and hastening the arrival of the Boeing 747.
(He was named after a Cuban step-grandfather, IIRC)

The network I use to work at instructed us not to put “caucasian or white” on breakdowns when casting specific roles, even if it was what we were looking for. We could put “Hispanic,” “African-American,” etc., but not “caucasian”. The role’s ethnicity could not be mentioned when looking for whites. So stupid.

Note that they can’t even use the “prior discrimination” excuse.
This is pure, undiluted social engineering.
