When a corp is hiring "all diverse" as google likes to put it, you do lose something. You lose your time and effort in getting a job because corps that are doing quotas will interview you despite to intention to hire. They do it because their interview stats and demographics are scrutinized by the government and they need their interview demographics to look good on paper.
As for BLM anyone can see the riots, looting, arson, and destruction that has affected places like Portland, Seattle, Kenosha. The riots have cost over two billion dollars in damages. Those are not damages to the government. Those are damages to ordinary people and business owners. Housing values go down, police protection is eroded, and some people were beaten or lost their lives.
- randmeerkat 6y agoYes, anyone can see the violence that happened in Charlottesville and the white supremacist that ran a car into people killing a woman. Anyone can see the 17 year old white supremacist in Kenosha that killed two and injured one. Anyone can see the statistically disproportionate state sponsored violence against minorities that results in their murder on the street during daylight like George Floyd. Minority votes are being suppressed, they make less money than their white counterparts, they have less access to higher education, less access to nutritious food, and they’re disproportionately dying during a pandemic. But sure, let’s ignore reality and talk about your narrow view on housing prices and police “protection”.
- one2know 6y agoYou obviously are a leftist extremists who believes that the ends justify the means of achieving your political goals. What other violent extremist acts will you endorse in the name of social justice? Why would a tech company hire someone like you who is advocating and endorsing violence?

- awerawerawrjhui 6y agoNothing in that link provides any evidence that KR is a white supremacist.
- randmeerkat 6y agoA 17 year old drives across state lines, goes to a city meets up with a militia that has ties to white supremacy and neo-Nazis, then kills two people and injures a third. If you don’t see the issues there, you’re part of the problem.
- awerawerawrjhui 6y ago> across state lines Kenosha is right next to the state border; he lived close to Kenosha on the other side of that border. What does it matter that he crossed state lines? > kills two people and injures a third All of whom were violently attacking him (one of them with a gun), as can be seen from numerous videos of the incident. > ties to white supremacy and neo-Nazis [citation still needed] > you’re part of the problem I'm proud to be part of the problem if the opposite of "problematic" is to accept provocative claims without evidence.
- awerawerawrjhui 6y ago> minorities... make less money than their white counterparts Are Asians not in the minority anymore?
- randmeerkat 6y ago“If you compare whites and Asian Americans with the same amount of schooling, Asian Americans actually make less money.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/12/29/the-asian-american-advantage-that-is-actually-an-illusion/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/12/29/the-a...
- awerawerawrjhui 6y agoWell that makes the success of Asian Americans even more remarkable, given that elite schools across the country routinely discriminate against them
