        are we really going to get into this American thing where everyone is pigeonholed into race, gender and ethnicity?

        Geez some of the commenters on here are fucking hill billy red necks. Australia has a diverse culture and background. . Boys clubs. Diversity bias. Statistically there should be more diversity in orgs and there isn't. Why because old school boy club mentality are racist

        How can they be “almost all” and “uniformly” white? Are school kids doing the Oz twitter account?
