Sagara User ID: 72540715 United States 07/21/2020 08:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Correct me if I’m wrong but....instead of buying a lottery ticket wouldn’t it be easier to apply for a job at one of these outfits that announced they won’t hire white males anymore. When you don’t get a interview you can sue them for racial discrimination? As evidence, cite their own press release. |

How is that not a true reflection of the industry taking the numbers of graduates above? |

How is that not a true reflection of the industry taking the numbers of graduates above? logic doesn't matter. its an emotional narrative. If you said that in a meeting you might as well be wearing kkk sheets. Didn't you read: all electronic dance music is historically black and was stolen by whites, including the mag. Forget the guys that designed the circuit boards and created integrated circuits to make it all possible. Leftism is a scene (like EDM) and because its a scene people are trying to up their standing. Why do you think kids play grind shooters now? its all about leveling up. Its all tied together psychologically. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 76273531 United Kingdom 07/21/2020 01:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Within my lifetime and probably within the next 5 years. I fully expect case-law from the highest court that will give a green light for companies to discriminate against straight white males. Let's be honest this pretty much the focus of half the country politically if you boil down everything. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75543000 I've thought that for a few years and 'white privlige' left code words for straight white educated and working male. |

This little nugget in the article really made me laugh. "Dance music is Black music and club culture was pioneered by and for Black LGBTQ+ people." This is a straight LIE. My old roommate has been in the music industry for decades and knows music history and this lie enraged him. Complete BULLSHIT. This is erasing any music history and early pioneers, which were white, from the minds of 20 somethings that don't know shit beyond 1999. Robert Moog, Kraftwerk and the inventor of the Hammond organ in the '30s. The first actual house party was thrown by Mancuso in NYC in like 1971, pre-dating "disco". |
