These sorts of things seem so backwards to me. I believe it’s unethical to hire people on the basis of race. Somehow we’ve come full circle.

You're missing the point. The reason for CRT/segregation/intersectionalism in 2021 is to attack the existing power structure and recreate it for the benefit of Marxist leaders. The "problem" with desegregation and the nuclear/extended family is that Marxists don't get a cut. You can learn more by reading previous generations of the Red Guard, Red Terror, Maoism and Fascism, which are being copied wholesale from the history books. Your misunderstanding is caused by not being a good comrade.

  Downvoters: Can you explain why you're pro-Marxist? Tens of millions died in Russia and China because of Marxism. Why do you want that in the US?

Oh I’ve been asked to hire unqualified people because of race / sexuality etc a few time. Flat out refused, and was highly confused as to why I was being demonized for it. Apparently believing a person skin color / gender identity doesn’t matter and shouldn’t affect hiring is now a bad thing. Was real fun when I was told that refusing to be alone with a female after hours is now sexist. Umm, not a chance in hell.

  > Was real fun when I was told that refusing to be alone with a female after hours is now sexist. Wait what? I've always heard that as a male, if you're going to be alone with a female, it's always good to do things like keep the door open and things like that. Did they tell you the opposite? Isn't it pretty risky for females? > Flat out refused, and was highly confused as to why I was being demonized for it. Keyword is "colorblind racism". The new ideaology basically says that instead of focusing on the world as it should be (everyone is equal regardless of race/sex/etc) and act that way, we should look at how it is now and act to compensate (minorites are oppressed so we compensate, etc).

    Training made it clear that avoiding a single female was discrimination since it’s different behavior then if it had been a male.

      I think you misunderstood the training, which likely didn't apply to meeting after hours. If the training mentioned that, it was bad training.

      I guess it's best to always leave the door open, curtains/blinds open, and not be secluded with any employee you don't trust implicitly since a disgruntled worker of any gender can cook-up a "they touched me in my special place" story.

    The danger of unmooring treatment from merit is that it inculcates an entitlement, low-confidence, fragile superiority mentality instead of a performance, accomplishment one. Plus, no one with self-respect would want to be advanced over more qualified people solely because of their attributes. And, it doesn't help advance equity for all and collectively-punishes those who don't happen to be micro-minority enough. Affirmative action, diversity, and other such biases policies are the factual definition of -ist/-isms with a pendulum the other way by exhaustive exclusion of all but one or two groups. Want a just society? Stick to merit, shun hate, and minimize bias.
