My hope is that when Hillary picks “blindly” she will end up with a very diverse cabinet of the best-qualified people. I get it that when white men (like me) say they’re picking blind that they end up with a bias toward white men anyway. I think Hillary will be different. I know she will.
You are so wrong. I have seen plenty of under-qualified men get promoted over women over the past 25 years of my career. Admittedly anecdotal, so let`s look at the data, shall we?
This. At that level of government there is little to no separation of qualifications. Its subjective at that point.
Because white men have benefited from sexist and racist hiring practices.
Since you’re in the black, anyway, I’ll try to explain it: you say you don’t care, and so do the majority of people, yet white men get picked over and over again. Studies show that people in general - ones who aren’t particularly sexist - consider women to be less capable than men. When women are announced to make 50%…
I’m all for making it easier to vote, but one doesn’t have anything to do with the other. There’s no link between voting access and the number of women in elected positions. If we squint, we might see a connection between voter id and getting candidates of color elected, but that’s a very minor piece of the puzzle…
There’s 15 unelected positions in a president’s cabinet. Are you really trying to say that, in all of America, there aren’t 7-8 women who are qualified to hold a position in the cabinet?
What you don’t seem to realize is that there is no single “most qualified” person for cabinet positions. There are many people with very similar backgrounds and qualifications. We aren’t going to sacrifice qualifications and experience in the cabinet in favor of diversity. We’re going to have both.
I bet you’re so not racist that you don’t even see color.
Aw, the “you don’t know me” defense. I can read your words. They’re pretty clear. No one ever brings up “qualifications” unless someone is promising to hire women or people of color. Open your eyes, push back against what you’ve been socially conditioned to think, and improve. There’s nothing wrong with recognizing…
Right. I mean, it’s super neutral. It’s kinda like ordering the chicken, you know? Like the article definitely isn’t against it (the way, say, Jez was outraged that a woman who once gave Hillary’s campaign $150 now likes Trump, or that Hillary’s LLC incorporated in Delaware like everyone else’s) BUT, come on. The…
You think you’re not saying it in a coded way, but you are wrong. You’ve just internalized the code in such a way that you’re now blind to it.
But you know as well as I do that when people disregard “race, sex, or any other consideration” they hire white men. That’s what that language means. That’s what you’ve absorbed, whether you want to admit it or not. That’s how you fully justify all white male cabinets, boards, workplaces. That’s how you justify sexism…
That is a bullshit thinly veiled excuse for sexism.
I think you Americans should do a better job at getting more women into Congress. Studies show that congresswomen (yes, both Democrats and Republicans) are more likely to push for bills that help women that than their male counterparts
It’s always the same tryhards saying “the gene pool is better off” or “the world lost nothing by their deaths” - even though they most likely won’t amount to anything greater than their anonymous internet comments.
“If we take care of morality,” David Brumbaugh, a Republican Representative in Oklahoma’s House , said during deliberations, “God will take care of the economy.”
Pretty impressed at how fast you spun this story into a school underfunding issue. So: Blame #1: underfunding. Blame #2: fragile anatomies. Nowhere: the pieces of shit who beat her.
6 girls planned to beat the shit out of their classmate. This wasn’t a sad accident. This was murder.
