From Footwear News:
Nike HR Exec Reportedly Admits Brand Failed to Make Progress on Diversity
By Sheena Butler-YoungMore details are emerging about the internal issues that led to Nike’s executive shake-up last month.
I look like a “Monique,” not a “Mo’nique”
At least six Nike higher-ups left hurriedly after a #MeToo scandal.
In a company memo obtained by The Wall Street Journal Wednesday, Nike’s chief human resources officer, Monique Matheson, reportedly told staffers that The Swoosh “has failed to gain traction” in hiring and promoting women and minorities.
To that end, Matheson added that the company wants “to create a culture of true inclusion. As part of our plan, we need to improve representation of women and people of color,” WSJ reported.
As everyone knows, People of Color never get handsy around women. Especially black men who love basketball. They are just morally superior, that’s all.
“While we’ve spoken about this many times and tried different ways to achieve change, we have failed to gain traction — and our hiring and promotion decisions are not changing senior-level representation as quickly as we have wanted,” the memo reportedly stated.
Last month, Nike announced the back-to-back — and seemingly abrupt — departures of Trevor Edwards, brand president, and Jayme Martin, VP and GM of global categories. …
In the U.S., 16 percent of vice presidents are nonwhite, she reportedly wrote. …
At the same time, many experts have suggested that an effective remedy for corporate reform — which sees women and other minorities treated more fairly at work — is creating more diversity in the upper ranks of companies.
So, because all six execs who got caught were white, right?
Or were they?
The New York Times, interestingly, while playing it a little indirect and coy about the Fired Six does not, for once, play the You Must Hire More Women and Minorities card:
At Nike, Revolt Led by Women Leads to Exodus of Male Executives
By JULIE CRESWELL, KEVIN DRAPER and RACHEL ABRAMS APRIL 28, 2018… Finally, fed up, a group of women inside Nike’s Beaverton, Ore., headquarters started a small revolt.
… Over the next several weeks, at least six top male executives left or said they were planning to leave the company, including Trevor Edwards, president of the Nike brand, who was widely viewed as a leading candidate to succeed Mr. Parker, and Jayme Martin, Mr. Edwards’s lieutenant, who oversaw much of Nike’s global business.
Others who have departed include the head of diversity and inclusion
Indeed
, a vice president in footwear and a senior director for Nike’s basketball division. …
While women struggled to attain top positions at Nike, an inner circle of mostly male leaders emerged who had a direct line to Mr. Edwards. Within the company, as reported earlier in The Wall Street Journal, this group was known as F.O.T., or Friends of Trevor.
The NYT is being coy, but judging from the names in an article in the Portland Business Journal, it looks like two of the six were white (including second ranked Jayme Martin), one South Asian, and three black (including top dog Trevor Edwards).
So, nonwhites make up 1/6th of the Nike executive ranks but 4/6th of the fired executives.
Solution: hire more nonwhites!
Just Do It.

Their products are all made in Asia and Asians are considered POC so the company has many minorities under it’s wing. Or are they invisible because the people who actually put the product together are proles?

Did Thomas Merton really die after being electrocuted by a fan? Or was he actually murdered?
https://off-guardian.org/2018/04/28/speaking-the-unspeakable-the-assassination-and-martyrdom-of-thomas-merton/
Haven't read this new book so I can't comment on it, but murder instead of accident seems a reasonable speculation to me.
Merton was famous. Even C. S. Lewis across-the-pond had known who he was and read his books. And Merton published a lot-- "the Talkative Trappist. " Millions of Americans read him, and not only Catholics. Lenny Bruce, for example.
But he appealed to many of the devout. And now he was starting to be Talkative about Vietnam.
Shut him up, shut him down. It's not as if we were going to have one of those fabled National Conversations about...war in Indochina, in this case.
Rembert Weakland administered the viaticum. The position of Merton's body was explained: He had soiled himself when he died, and the priests who found him changed him out of care for his dignity.
I think he was probably murdered, sure.
Being in the construction industry which having been under court orders to integrate (that lead to court taking over all hiring and human resources of most unions for 40 years and charging us for the assault and constantly filing lawsuits for damages and larger social work staff leading to utter ruin of industry) Its hard to feel sorry when the white collars get the same treatment finally maybe eventually someone will care.I doubt it.
That is just too funny.
China is a 5000 year old civilization with 1.2 billion people, strong self-confidence and self -awareness, and belief in themselves. When the all-conquering Mongols invaded, China swallowed and digested them without even burping. The Chinese in the US vote SJW purely because it serves their interest to pile on Whites, but in my opinion the SJW cucks have no chance of getting any real traction in China.

HR has been a sort of female ghetto because (1) women are “good with people” and (2) they can be used to fill hiring quotas without doing damage to the actual business of the company (i.e. making and selling stuff). However, I think they will prove to be a fifth column.
Nike may have dodged a bullet. Edwards was the crown prince. Usually appointing a black or female CEO is the kiss of death for a big corporation (or a country – see Obama) – a sign that the creative/entrepreneurial/expansionist phase is over and the bureaucratic rot has set in. Blacks/female leadership often ends in disaster but usually at best they serve as a sort of caretaker role – they can take something built by others (whites) and maintain it for a while but they are largely incapable of coming up with anything new or responding to unforeseen crises. There may be rare exceptions to this but not many.
The map shows several areas of London have lost more than 50% of their white British population between 2001 and 2011.
Alas technology is cutting into that. Over time, I’ve seen technology — in the form of third-party web apps — take over the selection and tweaking of a benefits package, paperwork to reimburse me for travel and other expenses, performance reviews and more. Granted, functions such as diversity training and top-honcho-who-talks-to-the-press aren’t automatable, but that’s only good for a handful of slots even at a very large company.

Automation is a Rube Goldberg solution to a non-problem that would require phalanxes more office drones to implement and oversee. That is its entire purpose---to divert the revenue stream of productive enterprises from line workers and capex and transfer it to managerial douchebags. But the low hanging fruit of this essentially parasitical strategy has long since been picked. There are numerous signs to indicate that Team D-bag has reached the limit of its strength and is due for a comeuppance. One is that the mystique is finally starting to wear off the tech sector; another is that automation can only develop itself upon an expanding credit base, which simply is not possible in a world of no savings and no growth. Try to imagine a world of generally declining standards of living and increasing anxiety about the future, where all the working men are being asked to support not only a bloated overclass of useless kibbitzers but also their ever-increasing retinue of exigent circus contraptions, and you'll get a pretty good idea of the prospects of "automation." Look up Rogaine Musk in a few years for the gritty details.
The farm tractor was the greatest-ever jobs destroyer, and things worked out fine.
Jack D, I notice that you didn't mention immigration restriction. Fewer Hispanic nannies available at low wages, more incentive for wives to stay home.
If the #metoo movement implicates a disproportionate % of black males, doesn’t this create a disparate impact and thus create a presumption of bias?
China will fail for other cultural reasons. The entire globe is headed for interesting times.
Wait. What exactly is the creative technology behind Nike? I thought the company was founded on the discovery that you could make shock absorbing souls for running shoes by curing silicone glue in a kitchen waffle iron. The rest of the brand is badly stitched Lycra body condoms stitched in Thailand and hype to the urban market.

Robots and computers don’t pose a demographic threat and don’t have human rights, at least not yet.
Very sensible. All that would be required is heavy taxation of second incomes to persuade most women to stay home. It’s largely what we want to do anyway. You wouldn’t even have to explicitly exclude women from the workplace. Traditional gender roles would reassert themselves as a matter of course. Exceptions would be rare and therefore unproblematic.

When you’ve dug yourself into a hole, the first step to recovery is to stop digging. The automation argument is a supreme reason to reconsidering the nation’s suicidal immigration policies, which we all know are simply there to end democracy and ensure a permanent democrat ruling body in the near future.

Let me try. An attempt to make true that which is false (sexes are equal; races are equal) leads to further efforts to deny reality, which, over time, will undermine qualities such as honesty that are essential to an advanced civilization.
An advanced civilization requires a modicum of honesty to be created and to function.
Nothing good comes from lies.
Nike has a sponsorship deal with a very diverse athlete, Tiger Woods. Let Tiger loose in the HR Department and see if that doesn’t help. He has already served his time in sex addiction rehab.

They already are a fifth column. Corporate executives are scared to death of HR, and what HR says isn’t falsifiable because (1) they’re the diverse crowd who care about people, the company’s most important assets of course and (2) they claim to serve as the defense against lawsuits and government regulations which must be complied with.
And the HR crowd has done a great a job making their bureaucratic utopia a self-fulfilling prophecy through government regulation and lawfare. In an ideal world, HR management would first cut its teeth on the business line, but, as you say, most HR people make HR their career starting in college and are ignorant, or antipathetic, about revenue-generating business.
Corporate rule by HR, which is not surprisingly the most female and NAM part of most companies, is destroying capitalism. They have been strikingly successful in making big business essentially an arm of the state (which is a characteristic of facism).

Scale makes a huge difference. Mom and Pop is the bottom of the ladder when it comes to management.
You have to know when to get there, unlock the door without tripping the alarm, and get behind the counter. Inventory is walking down the aisle to see what’s sold out, payroll is the two of you, maybe a part timer or two. Most people can do this level of management.
As the company gets bigger, now you have specialized staff for bookeeping, personel, inventory, marketing, the list goes on. Real early in that expansion, lots of men, and womyn reach their level of competency, they can maybe handle a couple of locations with 100 employees, but the ability to take it to a higher level, national, that’s really rare in one person.
Guys like our host, Steve, could give you lots of sources with how difficult high level managment truly is, and why so few womyn are there.
Another thought; 10 years ago or more, there was another womyn with a mindset like yours. She had seen all these womyn with advanced degrees from the most elite schools and there had been hardly any change in the percentage of womyn CEO’s in the previous 20 years.
So she decided to contact some of these womyn. Her method was the NYT’s wedding announcement pages. Went back into the archives 10 years and noted the womyn with the best pedigree’s and used public records to track them down. The wedding announcement always mentioned the wife’s educational attainments. She wanted the prime beef.
Interesting what she found. Most of the womyn had married really well, since their male classmates had the best pedigree’s as well. The reason the vast majority gave as to why they weren’t on the corporate ladder was their husband could and did provide a very comfortable living. They saw no reason to bust their ass like their husbands did every day.
One womyn said her husband was the CEO of the family; he earned the money. She was the CFO, she spent it. LOL
Womyn have options in life; to work or not. At least a lot of them. Men’s options are to work, or live on the streets. No womyn will want to support a guy, at least among womyn that are lower middle class and above. The underclass, the guys can find womyn that will sometimes do that. Mainly NAMs tho…
No, that’s behind the global population boom. Globalism is the quest to acquire more money so you can attract a better class/looking womyn you can penetrate.
Aristotle Onasis is on record saying the only reason for making a lot of money are womyn….male sex drive is everything.
Oh yeah, reproductive strategy.
Male reproductive strategy: expand and penetrate.

The joke writes itself.
Nippo-Korean* athletic and functional shoe designers (in other words not the crazy luxury lines e.g. Louboutin) are in the vanguard. Unlike the process in designing most apparel, designing a sneaker requires aesthetic ability and extensive knowledge of materials and process and an abilty to make the shoe function with the human foot. Conceptually it’s closer to architecture, functionality limits what you can do aesthetically but the aesthetics are what the consumer wants. IMHO it wouldn’t hurt Nike to get more leadership from the design sector. Marketing only gets you so far, you need cool and comfort to sell sneakers and athletic apparel.
*The China-India designers are not of the same calibre. Don’t know why.
You are probably correct. I would be interested in what the South/East Asian balance is and if/how it varies between groups.

So if we grant for argument's sake that both these statements are in fact true, then why on earth would anyone want to give women what they want, since that would only lead to destruction? The entire point of being a man is to defend, protect, purify, deepen, and advance the essence one carries, which as a practical matter usually means creating and preserving civilization not destroying it. Supposing that female choice can only destroy civilization, then catering to the selfish demands of women is contrary to the essence of masculinity and incompatible with real virtue, real genius, and real creativity.
Now, I do not accept that these statements are true, and therefore the whole argument falls apart. I only mentioned to show that the mega-toes are incapable of being logical even on their own terms. But the whole attitude is extremely destructive nonetheless. It is in fact a carefully crafted lie designed to exploit the human weaknesses of both sexes.
The weakness of women consists in the fact that they will accept almost any man if the alternative is being alone. As a man, all you have to do is be there at the right time. Therefore, being a PUA gamer will work, but not for the reasons advanced by the game community. It will work because, if your sole objective is getting laid, all you have to do is keep trying and eventually you'll stumble upon a girl in a receptive mood. No big surprises there.
Meanwhile, the elaborate rococo nonsense with which the gamers justify themselves---all the evolutionary theory and psychology and whatnot---is designed to trigger the specifically male weakness manifested in the egotism that would fain believe that everything one has or achieves in life is the direct result of one's own power and greatness."If you get the girl," they say, "it is because you are a dominant and superior being."
Clearly, this is just prying into the gearbox of male insecurity and reprogramming it to beat down the weak defenses of female propriety. There is nothing constructive about any of this. It is a plunge first into barbarism and then into hell. The only manly thing to do is to resist it, no matter what it costs one in popularity.

A while back I mentioned following the irreplaceable Feuilleton, which tracks modern illustration, weird fiction, electronic music and cutting edge art (like Sushi Cats). Its proprietor, the professional artist John Coulthart, is a great illustration of a minor point Steve made a while back that real modern art normally means high-quality magazine illustration, although Coulthart mainly does book covers. Feuilleton is very good about paying attention to the online availability of materials, partly because Coulthart relies heavily on archived copyright-expired lithographs for elaborate digital collages. Twice now the blog has featured a late-seventies science magazine with sci-fi flavoring, which is now available in its entire run free at the Internet Archive. This particular link which I am now pointing up focuses on realistic illustrators of the mid-century magazine cover style who were tapped by NASA and Stanley Kubrick among others to stoke popular excitement for the space program, which I’m guessing a lot of people here would enjoy.

By the way, there’s a really great woman coder at Microsoft, Dona Sarkar. How do I know? I heard her presentation about how great it is to code. In fact, that seems to be her job now, going around telling girls how great a coding job is. Too bad she doesn’t seem to have so much time to actually code herself anymore.
She talks about how she realized how much she loved coding when her boss sent her to Europe to help troubleshoot a software application problem. She met with customers, watched them use the software, figured out the problem, and communicated with the coders back home how to fix it. She went on to do more of this, which she loved, which unfortunately took her away from actual coding. By the way, she has a fashion line on the side. I’m wondering whether male coders are allowed to operate a business on the side while working at Microsoft. Grrrrlz who Code!
The pattern that I observed at several private industry companies was that the technical people were all white men or Chinese. White men here includes Indians (meaning from India).
In my areas in private industry there plenty of women in marketing but the engineers, coders and data base analysts were almost exclusively male. When I checked this with Google (the information resource not the company) that seems to be the general pattern too.
Government was different. There you would find mostly women in the kinds of semi-technical kind of paper pushing jobs I once supervised. I did finance and budgeting in those days. All the lower level accounting jobs were almost exclusively female as well as the welfare workers. Women dominated the eligibility worker and account clerk positions of which there were a great many. So in the published summary statistics there is an impression that females are often employed in math related areas. But that impression obscure the reality that women are usually employed in 'low' math not 'high' math.

I’ve spent some time reading 19th century American periodicals, including those aimed at women. One thing that I can tell you is that women had skillz in those days! The kind of cooking done was much more sophisticated than today, including chem lab level candy making. Sewing was not just using patterns, but doing the size grading yourself and truing all the pattern pieces to work with the new size. And most women could play the piano at a really high level before recorded music. Josef Hoffman, student of Anton Rubinstein, and quite a famous pianist and composer at the time, had a piano Q and A column in the Ladies Home Journal that dealt with astoundingly advanced piano repertory and topics, based on readers’ questions.
If by "most women" , you mean one tenth of 1 per cent.
Piano was popular but so was guitar: before Saint Segovia made it a concert instrument, they had Tarrega and Sor, and the guitar was played either by upscale females as a parlor instrument or in bars by drunks and gypsies. (Alas, the guitar wielding singing cowboy was mostly the stuff of Hollywood: 'oaters' or 'horse operas' could be shot 90 minutes from LA even on the roads of the day, so a lot were made.) Bowed strings and concertina or accordion were also somewhat popular , as were banjos, mandolins, and in the last days of the phenomenon, electric steel guitar.
Organs, reed organs pumped manually and later occasionally electrified with a Hoover motor, were also a parlor standby and that led to the home organ craze of the 50s and 60s. Now, the last holdout of that is the Lowrey company, which trains its dealers to efficiently take advantage of semicoherent very old people.
What killed all this? Availability of recorded music played by full time professionals. Few amateurs sound very good on any instrument as compared to recordings of top pros. Plus which, people don't do stuff at home together any more.
What laughable (and outrageous) nonsense! Women have been teachers, nurses, and social workers since forever. Career girls used to dress like this.

Merton was famous. Even C. S. Lewis across-the-pond had known who he was and read his books. And Merton published a lot– “the Talkative Trappist. ” Millions of Americans read him, and not only Catholics. Lenny Bruce, for example.
But he appealed to many of the devout. And now he was starting to be Talkative about Vietnam.
Shut him up, shut him down. It’s not as if we were going to have one of those fabled National Conversations about…war in Indochina, in this case.
Rembert Weakland administered the viaticum. The position of Merton’s body was explained: He had soiled himself when he died, and the priests who found him changed him out of care for his dignity.
I think he was probably murdered, sure.
When I worked in government I once had several hundred women working for me and only three males. The requirements of various real world workplaces don't correspond to the expectations of the social planners.Replies: @Anon, @gunner29, @Bill jones
If you had fired those 3 males, then you would of had true diversity! LOL
But it’s amazing the number of guys that have no idea their head is near the chopping block. Morons still think womyn are working with them. They aren’t.
Left coast place I worked at didn’t promote a white womyn to upper management. They eventually paid her and her lawyer $1.5 million to go away. She was sure that was her job, and it was sexism.
For the next 15 years they were on a crusade to get every femail and minority into management, so they could maybe defend themselves when the inevitable discrimination lawsuit was filed in a left wing court with a left wing jury pool.
Men are certainly more ambitious and expansive in their outlook, but then that is how we got into this mess, isn't it?

Evidence? I rather doubt that women are particularly deficient in management ability. There’s a reason they’re called “Mom and Pop” stores rather than just “Pop” stores. I don’t see any reason why scale would make any difference in terms of women’s competence, though certainly it makes a huge difference in women’s interest in these roles.

It's time to give it up Whiskey. You've got no case.
So if we grant for argument's sake that both these statements are in fact true, then why on earth would anyone want to give women what they want, since that would only lead to destruction? The entire point of being a man is to defend, protect, purify, deepen, and advance the essence one carries, which as a practical matter usually means creating and preserving civilization not destroying it. Supposing that female choice can only destroy civilization, then catering to the selfish demands of women is contrary to the essence of masculinity and incompatible with real virtue, real genius, and real creativity.
Now, I do not accept that these statements are true, and therefore the whole argument falls apart. I only mentioned to show that the mega-toes are incapable of being logical even on their own terms. But the whole attitude is extremely destructive nonetheless. It is in fact a carefully crafted lie designed to exploit the human weaknesses of both sexes.
The weakness of women consists in the fact that they will accept almost any man if the alternative is being alone. As a man, all you have to do is be there at the right time. Therefore, being a PUA gamer will work, but not for the reasons advanced by the game community. It will work because, if your sole objective is getting laid, all you have to do is keep trying and eventually you'll stumble upon a girl in a receptive mood. No big surprises there.
Meanwhile, the elaborate rococo nonsense with which the gamers justify themselves---all the evolutionary theory and psychology and whatnot---is designed to trigger the specifically male weakness manifested in the egotism that would fain believe that everything one has or achieves in life is the direct result of one's own power and greatness."If you get the girl," they say, "it is because you are a dominant and superior being."
Clearly, this is just prying into the gearbox of male insecurity and reprogramming it to beat down the weak defenses of female propriety. There is nothing constructive about any of this. It is a plunge first into barbarism and then into hell. The only manly thing to do is to resist it, no matter what it costs one in popularity. The women who wish to be gamed are not worth winning, and the men who game them are not winners but losers. This is a fundamental truth that has always been known but is currently in eclipse, and the sexual dysfunction of the age is a result of this shadow cast into the hearts of men. To stand fast against the present darkness is always the supreme calling of masculinity. The return of the sun will reveal the brave in their glory and wither the lies of the deceivers.Replies: @Rosie, @anonguy, @Whiskey
PUA dudes get men laid. And you offer incel hell, Supreme Gentlemen Elliot Rodger.
Guess which way men are voting. Life is simple and brutal. Either you and yours dominate or some other group of men will do so and if you are lucky merely enslave you.

"Rosie" is Corvinus.Replies: @gunner29, @Rosie
I like how you put ‘it’ in quotes. ‘It’ called someone a ‘bloke’ earlier. I suspect ‘It’ is a ‘Bruce’ posing as a ‘Sheila’. Aussie.
Most “ladies”, that is to say women raised in a middle or upper class home with some pretensions to refinement, could play a musical instrument at some level, but rarely at what we would today call a professional level. Maybe one or two percent could by today’s standards pass an audition for admittance at a conservatory if that. But they could play the popular hymns and sing along tunes of the day.
Piano was popular but so was guitar: before Saint Segovia made it a concert instrument, they had Tarrega and Sor, and the guitar was played either by upscale females as a parlor instrument or in bars by drunks and gypsies. (Alas, the guitar wielding singing cowboy was mostly the stuff of Hollywood: ‘oaters’ or ‘horse operas’ could be shot 90 minutes from LA even on the roads of the day, so a lot were made.) Bowed strings and concertina or accordion were also somewhat popular , as were banjos, mandolins, and in the last days of the phenomenon, electric steel guitar.
Organs, reed organs pumped manually and later occasionally electrified with a Hoover motor, were also a parlor standby and that led to the home organ craze of the 50s and 60s. Now, the last holdout of that is the Lowrey company, which trains its dealers to efficiently take advantage of semicoherent very old people.
What killed all this? Availability of recorded music played by full time professionals. Few amateurs sound very good on any instrument as compared to recordings of top pros. Plus which, people don’t do stuff at home together any more.
A while back I mentioned following the irreplaceable Feuilleton, which tracks modern illustration, weird fiction, electronic music and cutting edge art (like Sushi Cats). Its proprietor, the professional artist John Coulthart, is a great illustration of a minor point Steve made a while back that real modern art normally means high-quality magazine illustration, although Coulthart mainly does book covers. Feuilleton is very good about paying attention to the online availability of materials, partly because Coulthart relies heavily on archived copyright-expired lithographs for elaborate digital collages. Twice now the blog has featured a late-seventies science magazine with sci-fi flavoring, which is now available in its entire run free at the Internet Archive. This particular link which I am now pointing up focuses on realistic illustrators of the mid-century magazine cover style who were tapped by NASA and Stanley Kubrick among others to stoke popular excitement for the space program, which I'm guessing a lot of people here would enjoy.

I was in Thailand shortly after this happened and was nearly electrocuted in a similar way. I find the story of his death believable.
A rather attenuated causal relationship, I’d say. The truth is sex denialism is not nearly as counterintuitive as race denialism. The IQ gap between races dwarfs the sex gap. Moreover, it’s most visible at the tail ends, which is quite different from the milieu in which most people live put their lives.
Then why is the comment section on this website so rife with outright lies about women? You tell me.

Whether it was abolitionism and the women's suffrage movement coexisting during the mid 19th century, second wave feminism following the civil rights/black power movement, or #MeToo and #BLM sharing the same space, the historical record makes it abundantly clear that there is an SJW domino effect.

True, perhaps, but totally irrelevant.

Only White women with college degrees (heavily indoctrinated) ran from Trumpian populism. Indeed, they put college White men to shame.

Probably the SJW menace will be resisted for awhile yet. Distinct language and culture helps with that, but most importantly, the method of government means that it is more difficult for the usual actors to get a significant toehold. Even in Japan, for example, which is nominally a democracy, can avoid subversion by having significant amounts of power secluded in veiled male-controlled clubs and organizations.

I worked at a huge Fortune 50 for over 20 years and witnessed many successive waves of efforts to increase our Most Precious Value, Diversity (although it wasn’t always called this).
Mostly, this focused on blacks, but it seemed the company learned from this after a few purges of pre Me-Too run of the mill sexual harassment/inappropriate shenanigans got rid of rapidly and over-promoted black males who liked the white women a bit too enthusiastically.
So, what they did, is encourage leaders to self-identify as ‘Diverse’. This led to some hilarious flight from white scenarios, where lots of whites magically discovered hidden depths of non-stale-pale-maleness.
Blue eyed people with German surnames claimed to be Latino. White Lebanese Christians claimed to be anointed with the holy order of being Diverse. Blue eyes palefaces claimed to be Cherokee (why always this tribe?). An Italian guy claimed to be Puerto Rican. A Greek claimed the Precious as well.
Beyond reducing the unfortunate tendencies of blacks with power to be overly grabby of the white ladies, what this did is position these corporate transracialists to benefit personally with the benefits of this anointed status, and to position the company externally as having higher numbers of non-whites, which of course means, less evil.

People who believe men and women are the same are wrong, but they are not cucks.
A cuck is a cuckold, one of Shakespeare’s favorite insults: a man who has abdicated his masculine prerogatives, especially regarding his woman. The main presupposition in tolerating promiscuity, open relationships, and cucking is that female sexuality works just like male sexuality. So, yeah, people who believe that men and women are the same are cucks.
I would agree, but … they seemed to have no trouble setting aside thousands of years of tradition to adopt insane Marxism imported from the West’s mental underside, even to the cost of millions of lives. So a little SJW-ism doesn’t seem like too much of a stretch.
Why do so many commenters here feel the need to feed the troll? The only way to make it go away is to deny it the attention and validation it craves.
I am generally chivalrous toward women and I tend to be pretty blunt. But I am usually gentlemanly about the way I am blunt. Indeed, there is being blunt, and there is being crude. Women of good sense and breeding (there are still some left) don’t mind bluntness, but they certainly don’t look kindly upon men who are crude.

My ideal workplace is one where workers are forbidden to speak to each other.
Often it takes the form of forcing a hundred or so workers to sit through sensitivity sessions where everybody is told not to curse all day long because the blacks curse all day long.
Or the drug testing for everybody because the blacks come back from lunch either red eyed and half asleep from weed or screeching even louder and faster than usual from coke and speed.
Or having to sign in and out for lunch because the blacks consider lunch hour to stretch from 12/30 to 2/30.
True story from UCLA hospital when medical records were all paper and folders All but 2 of 70 or so medical records clerks were blacks.
The men were recruited from parole and probation offices. The women were Clinton’s welfare to work program. UCLA, bring the White hating negro loving institution it is was so proud of itself for having this and other all blacks departments.
Of course the blacks blathered all day long ; so loudly they could be heard from the elevator. Often drs nurses techs and clerks had to go to the records department in person to get medical records.
So all day and night, from 8/am to midnight when fetching a record they had to listen to an endless stream of curse words while waiting for a medical record.
Plus both hospital workers and visitors could hear them as soon as they got off the elevator.
So finally the high up administration instructed the black women in charge of medical records to inform the scum & dregs that cursing is not professional.
The cursing continued non stop. The administration cracked down more. The cursing continued.
Someone finally figured out the problem. The blacks honestly didn’t know that mofa f*ck n word etc were unacceptable curse words
That’s the reason UCLA turned its medical records over to a contractor. The contractor hired American Hispanics who knew the difference between curse words and acceptable conversation.
I’ve always thought the standard behavior and language of blacks is the reason why affirmative action segued so quickly from blacks to women, Hispanics Asians and every conceivable demographic but White heterosexual man.
>recriminalize homosexuality?
Oh there you go relying on the big state. We do need to restore shame for degeneracy and hedonism, to include heterosexual degeneracy. Criminalization, as no liberal can understand, means enforcement.

We do need to restore the old way of electing Senators, as it is they're just a redundant assembly.
We do need to withdraw the franchise from welfare recipients. Are you okay with Chinese bureaucrats stealing tax money, coming here, and then holding forth on how, as an American, they feel that the First and Second Amendments are outdated?

What is the good thing that is going to result from a pinkhair's seventh piercing? Degenerate personal expression is a kind of defilement ritual solidifying commitment to self-destruction. Your personal life should be something private, not a hair shirt displayed to all.

I think it makes sense to restrict franchise to property owners, no matter how small. When you own a business or a house, even a small condo, things like property value and taxes start to enter the brains of even leftists.
Were this a public establishment, my good Sir, I would buy you a drink!
Opposing modern-day slavery is not only moral, but practical. Let us not keep helots, for one day they may overthrow us and enslave our children.
Don’t forget mean. I think a lot of confusion comes from bluntness being confused with meanness. My sense is women really don’t like it when men make them feel bad. You seem gracious enough that you probably run into this less often.

Curious that you find this noteworthy. Does anyone like it when someone makes them feel bad? If women are particularly unreceptive to constructive criticism, I hadn’t noticed.

Nothing more needs to be said about the validity of your observations.
No one likes being made to feel bad (notice my use of the word really in the original statement). Some people take it more personally than others. I think women are more likely on average to do this than men. Do you disagree? Here is a brief take on why (the comments highlight how that piece was written almost 20 years after the book it references ; ): https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/he-speaks-she-speaks/201402/do-women-take-things-personally
I am interested in your thoughts on all of this.
To put this another way, I think women tend to define (on average again, obviously) “constructive criticism” a bit differently than men.
Agreed. There are both differences and similarities and it is important to remember that. Also important to remember that there is usually more variation within each sex than between the sexes (e.g. see height). Yes, that is “Lewontin’s fallacy,” but I believe that is only a fallacy when one uses it to imply the different averages don’t matter.
Can’t figure out if Jayme is a man or a women or mis spelling of the Spanish name Jaime.

Every county in the country has a law library open to the public. Every little branch courthouse in the boon docks has its little law library open to the public And there seems to be a law school every few miles to accommodate the jillion trillion liberal arts grads who don’t want to work at Starbucks for minimum wage.
Essentially the Supreme Court is the law of the land. Laws can be made and overturned by the vote of one Supreme Court judge.
These judge made laws can be and are enforced by federal law enforcement and even the army.
That’s the way it it is and no amount of learned articles in National Review, American conservative or any other conservative publication can change that.
That would ok if you let the Asians and Hispanics run the place. The blacks could be isolated so they could eat, have their potlucks and screech and fight all day long.
Probably a mis spelling of the Spanish version of James spelled Jaime.
Due to the extreme over sensitivity of blacks HR manuals have all sorts of ways to inform workers of rules and procedures.

Okay.
But men and women do not function identically– smart women do not generally do the same sort of jobs as smart men. Not to mention that the idea that men and women are always interchangeable in any situation was the justification for the absurd gay marriage decision.
