Microsoft staff are openly questioning the value of diversity Tell me what the original poster said that was wrong? Men and women ARE different. Some women are NOT cut out for the corporate climate. Hell, many men aren’t. Men and women derive fulfillment from different pursuits. Women largely aren’t interested in STEM and computers fields. I think the snap back from people here comes largely from those who are interested and the white knights ready to step in to defend against any notion that men and women are different. Yes, it’s an unpopular thing to say but that doesn’t mean there isn’t some truth to it. Women shouldn’t be stigmatized or ostracized in the workplace but they certainly shouldn’t be given special privileges or hired for their gender. Same goes for minority hires. Hires should be based solely on merit, skill and fit for the job and within the team. Sex and/or skin color shouldn’t come into the discussion and they certainly shouldn’t be seen as a corporate initiative.

Pretty apt description of SJWs in the games industry:
The swing these people are sitting on has very loose ropes and someday, they're going to snap. Just take a moment and think about what side you would want to fall onto:
- The one where you can earn money off of your hobby, enjoy your work and have it enjoyed by thousands of people out there.
- Or the one where you hate basically everything and everyone, develop paranoia that the whole world is against you personally, that everything around you is a scheme to suppress you, and where every word you say must first run through a filter so no one can find anything to label you with anything bad.

"...now I better understand why so many women fucking hate men." Except for the little facts that Anthony is a dude who was confused about whether or not he's bi-sexual, who unilaterally decided that he and his wife should be in an open relationship, failed miserably at making play with both men and women while his wife was apparently exceedingly good at it, posted excessively about the details of said marriage and his own lack of skills in dating and in bed on social media, ended up wrecking his marriage as a result... going on a date with a gay man. So... that doesn't exactly provide ANY understanding about how men behave toward women... outside of his own shitty behavior toward his wife, which of course he's not actually talking about in this Tweet. This guy is such a hypocrite and a tool. I can totally understand why the "At least I'm not Anthony Burch" meme started.

This guy is such a hypocrite and a tool. I can totally understand why the "At least I'm not Anthony Burch" meme started. You really can't compare gay men with straight. The culture is totally different. By the time men start dating they understand that women pretty well control sensuality and sex. Only women have sex, men have to get it from them. So we learn to play "the game," we don't expect sex right away and we understand that you have to put effort into a relationship. (Well, at least we used to understand that before hookup apps.) Gay men are different. Gay men know what each other are looking for and are not only more promiscuous but a lot more forward as well. If this guy went on a gay date he has no right to compare his grabby date to how straight men act. We know full well if you get handsy you might just end the date early.

“This conversation about pushing off our own well being onto the individual is part of these 1980s Reagan era policies that again try to move that structural obligation of a system and this social safety net onto the individual," Rashatwar said, " instead of thinking that there should be social supports that also help me to subsidize my food costs." Ummm........... Yeah

Ummm........... Yeah The old the only reason negative thing afflicts me is because the government, the system, other people aren't doing enough for me argument. We went from "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country" to "Where's my free stuff?"

Charlize Theron Shuts Down Man Who Kissed Her Interpreter: ‘Ask Next Time?’ The mark of a true SJW. Always stepping in to fight other people's battles even when they aren't asked to do so. So a French guy kissed a woman on the cheek in greeting. Oh the horror. She does know that kissing each other on the cheek is a customary greeting in France, right? I really care to hear advice from the woman who's trying to force the seven year old boy she adopted to be a girl. As if her being a single mom of two adopted black children wasn't "trendy" enough, now she's has to have the boy be trans too.

She's dressing a black boy in a dress and she hasn't been called a racist yet?

Not going to read that because of spoilers but seriously WTF? People like this are fucking insufferable. Always with them there just isn't enough of whatever agenda they're peddling today. Not enough gay representation, not enough minorities, not enough quadriplegic transgender midget albino encephalopods. I never watch a movie and go "Gee... you know there just aren't enough straight white politically conservative males who aren't being portrayed as a villain in this." Not because that's what's being represented, because these days good luck finding that in a movie, but because I don't go around thinking I need identity politics shoved into everything. Hell, when they do try to shove all this representation into everything it usually ends up being super cringey and very eyerollingly noticeable. This notion that you have to have people that look and act just like you (or whatever group you're virtue signalling for) in order to connect with a character and story is RIDICULOUS. Writers should write characters, not tropes and certainly not agendas. A well rounded character can be anything and if they're written well, and in the case of movies and TV acted well, then people can get onboard with whatever story is being told. Write crappy characters who serve no purpose other than to mouth off about identity politics, social justice issues, and stuff like Orange man bad (looking at you Supergirl) then I don't care to read or watch whatever story it is you're trying to tell.

‘I am proud to be a gay son of God’: Mormon valedictorian comes out in graduation speech This kind of spectacle always pisses me off. Not because he’s gay. I don’t give a rats ass who he likes to boink and that’s exactly the point. This dude just stood in front of a room of 10,000 people and said I’m Christian and I like to get fudge packed, deal with it. As a complete stranger I don’t want to know your religious affiliation, political leanings, or sexual proclivities on any day of the week, much less at a graduation. I hate when people abuse a platform to spread agendas or try to promote their own brand of morals. A graduation speech is supposed to be a message about and to your classmates, a chance to reflect on your time in school and the outlook for your futures. It is not a platform to give your school or church the finger, air your political positions, promote yourself, or tell a captive audience how you like to go down on other men. Because that’s exactly what this guy just did, whether that was his intent or not. But papers like WaPo will do exactly as they always do and hail the kid a hero. To people like this kid and those who support this kind of nonsense I will say, tell everyone you want who cares to listen on your own time. By all means work from within to try and reform your church, school, job, etc if you think that’s what you need to do. But don’t hijack a graduation speech and use it as a platform to promote yourself and your agenda when it’s supposed to be a celebration of academic accomplishment and an acknowledgment of transition to adulthood for you and your classmates.

Halima Aden makes history as the first model to wear a burkini in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit IssueWell, so long Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. You had a good run I guess. This is just dripping with virtue signaling because literally NO ONE, Muslim men included was asking for this. How is it SJWs reconcile this religious oppression of women as a positive? Imagine if tomorrow Christianity decided to make women start wearing certain clothes in public. The outcry from these people could be heard from space. You don’t have to imagine. You can already see how ridiculous they get using the clothes from the completely fake TV show, The Hand Maids Tale. But somehow showing women in burkinis is “empowering” and “brave.” LOL.

From this point on, if you have a complaint about Video Game violence... you're a SJW.
