As a part of a minority, I heavily disagree. The new push for diversity create self doubt. am I really achieving on merit, or just the result of this new social justice movement? I tend to think the people of the left are politicians. They haven’t done much to help me as a student, business owner, or parent. Rather, they just want me to be a victim, someone who they can rely upon to keep themselves employed.
Yep. You know the trick of surviving 10+ years in a corporate managerial position? You pick your subordinates out of slightly underqualified mediocrities. Not only they will be completely helpless without you (let alone, challenge your position), but they will also be infinitely loyal to you, as they won't get another chance under anyone else.
Well, that kind of people now want to run our entire society this way. They want you to be that loyal mediocrity, infinitely thankful for the handout, and supporting their cause without questioning.
Believe me, it's a road to nowhere. Corporate mediocrities end up taking antidepressants for life, or killing themselves after the boss gets fired and they have zero shot at paying that mortgage. The life of self-improvement, hard work and achievement is 1000x more rewarding and I'm glad more people are starting to realize that.
We need more people like you speaking up though. Because virtually every criticism from outside the minorities is now almost unconditionally labeled racist.
