    Whenever White males claim they are oppressed in the job market, ask these so-called oppressed White males why is it that White males are more likely to be employed and promoted than Black males? https://twitter.com/RyanNegri/status/1203163994518765568 …

        Total fake story too. You can't hire on gender and race, it's discrimination and it's illegal. He would never be told that, and their decisions wouldn't be made on that.

        “Now that society is trying to be more equal, I can’t just skim through on being mediocre!” Forget about the generations of overly qualified POC who couldn’t advance 100% because of their skin color.

        As white male who’s done hiring & been unemployed but when I’ve heard of such things from credible ppl it’s seeking to address previous oppression and discrimination of POC via equity. Our history gives us our present. It can/should drive white males to diversify professionally.

        I’m so tired of all of their privileged whining. Systems are build to not only employ them, but ensure failsafes are in place in the event they meet “opposition” - child please.

        Yep. You should see what some say in my field of medieval studies. In a field that is mostly white & notorious for shutting out PoC some white males claim 'not being white is the greatest advantage' to get hired. They minimize racism to "mild adversity."https://twitter.com/ISASaxonists/status/1175006349916327937?s=20 …
