And you're going to see more of this, which is a good thing. "It shall be an unlawful employment practice for an employer - (1) to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or otherwise to discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin;" What don't these woke corporations understand? I don't see an "unless it's done with politically correct intentions" clause.
I read the article. It’s a double standard to say he was fired due to poor performance. If it was a black, latinx, trans dude, you would need a 5 inch binder of poor performance reviews to get away with firing that person.
Great news! Glad to see that there is some protection available for the only unprotected group left - able-bodied white males.
You do know that the main reason it's illegal for you to nail a 16 year old girl is that it would be too easy for you to ******** her into letting you do it, right? (Sorta kidding but not really.)
For some women, yes. Unfortunately I don’t think waiting 2 more years will make a difference in their life.
Deez Come on man I did not say they didn't know they were getting a lap dance and you know it. I said they may not have known what was planned.
I understand that, but even if you don't know it's planned, does that really make a big difference? Call me crazy, but if a high school boy (or girl) started grinding his (or her) *** on me in lingerie, I wouldn't have to know how it was planned to know it was inappropriate. Any school official with a shred of professionalism would shut it down immediately. I get that it's a joke, but this is way over the line.
Apparently the students found the books in the library that the teachers have been hiding from the parents.
Maybe I’m missing the joke, even though I gave the “If God loves us” comment a Funny, but I’m with Deez here on this. And I sure as hell wouldn’t have agreed to dress up and do that. What the hell is with those ********?
Yeah we just had a rigged basketball game against the faculty in my day. Faculty always won, referees rigged the game you just went with it.
If you watch the vid you see the male teachers look caught off guard. Maybe they should have stopped it. Everyone else was laughing. In retrospect you know they wish they had but in the moment? Heck the cheerleaders came out in Hooters costumes. Little difference from what most cheerleaders usually wear. Poor judgement and probably too much freedom given to the students in planning. But is it a firing offense? And I am not even sure what should happen to the students IF they planned it by themselves.
Laws like that make me wonder how companies can promise to increase the percent of women/minorities in hiring. Here's one from yesterday: "The CEO also pledged on Thursday to increase by 50 percent the proportion of women and non-binary people, which is currently 23 percent at Activision. The company will spend $250 million to promote diversity in its hiring." CEO details anti-harassment push at scandal-hit Activision Blizzard I guess it's a lot harder to prove you were not hired due to your sex.
What a fuckin' clown. And Ngo is right. If white privilege was a big thing, they'd have no reason to lie about their race.
It's because the courts are a mess on the issue. Openly discriminating against a white person on account of race is illegal. However, the Court has left a hole open for some affirmative action programs under certain conditions, which are clear as mud. Here's the ***** of it though. The case that tolerated affirmative action by private employers despite the very clear and unambiguous language of the Civil Rights Act was decided in 1978 by a wildly more liberal Court than we have now. That means some employer is going to go too woke and invite the Supreme Court to reverse that opinion and decide the Civil Rights Act actually means what it says.
Kein problem. The case at issue is illustrative of the problems that arise when courts decide that they don't have to follow the law. Basically, nobody knows what the law actually is. If you read the law Congress actually wrote, all affirmative action is illegal. It's quite clear. However, the Court wanted to tolerate it to serve a politically correct purpose, so it put aside what the law actually said to allow it. But the Court is clearly conflicted. It knows what the law says but if it acknowledges that it's breaking the law (which it is) by allowing affirmative action generally, it loses its credibility, so it has to play legal Houdini to force a result that the written law and the legislative history suggests that Congress never intended to allow. So it took a legal issue that's very clear and threw a bunch of **** on it to force an illegitimate agenda and make it complicated.
Sorry!!! I wasn't clear. I was thanking mchammer for spelling out the Kendi tweet I didn't understand. But I appreciate your legal perspective on it as well.
Yes! When I was a teacher / if I were still a teacher, and one of my students tried to give me a lap dance or grind on me, whatever the purported reason was, that activity would stop immediately. And I definitely wouldn't have gotten up and given them spankings afterward either.
