I'm okay with it, because I can get a job elsewhere. Some minorities can't. I don't need to be able to get a job at GitHub, because for some stupid reason, society has a general bias in favor of me. I can work anywhere, but the folks they're giving a shot are folks who don't have it as good as I do.
- malandrew 11y agoIf this continues to proliferate, instead of achieving a World where minorities have equal opportunity with non-minorities, we will instead end up with a mix of institutions where those in the majority have an advantage and other institutions where those who are minorities have an advantage. This doesn't look like equality, but a reversion to something looking like "separate but equal".

- marcoperaza 11y agoEvery human being should be judged for the content of their character, not the color of their skin. The law disagrees with you. I can very easily see Github on the losing side of workplace racial discrimination claim here.
- Laaw 11y agoI wish your world existed. It doesn't, however, and minority groups need advantages over me in order to get the kinds of jobs I can get. I hope we can move past this some day, but that's not happening today.
