Fighting Racism and Sexism

Post by Graham Wellington » Thu Apr 06, 2023 5:15 pm

Major props to Sen. Hillary Scholten. She is fighting to make sure she has a diverse staff by excluding white males from consideration for an open job she has. By excluding people from consideration based off their sex or race, she is ensuring that sexism and racism have no place in the hiring process.

What a dummy she is. Skin color is just pigment.

You think you'd own all the stuff you own if you were black? Statistically you would be dead or in jail. You simply like to ignore your responsibilities as a Christian, don't you?

Does that mean I can sue Hillary Scholten because I'm a white male? I wouldn't be applying for the job since I'm afraid I have to disagree with many political views, to begin with, Hillary is a Congresswoman, not a Senator. If the GOP were smart they wouldn't have voted Peter Meijer out in the primary he would've beaten Hillary in the rematch, in my opinion, John Gibbs wasn't a good candidate if I lived in the area I'd have voted 3RD party, or write-in Meijer.

A classic liberal flamingly racist statement. And as usual a liberal who has no clue how and why it's raciest.

The Democrats had something to do with Meijer being voted out. We can't have moderate politicians who are willing to work across the aisle. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/26/us/p ... eijer.html

Also, you are correct. My brain told me "Rep." But my fingers typed "Sen".

It is statically true, especially in the Detroit area.

You’re truly blinded by your own ignorance.

Black people aren’t predisposed to be violent or incarcerated no matter how much you believe it.

You’re stereotyping, and it’s wrong.

Do you think all Asians are geniuses and are good at martial arts?

I’d hate to know what you think about other groups.
In my opinion, TCT must be using some really funky mushrooms.

TC, I think you mean 'statistically true', not 'statically true'.
