KeymasterI hate cattle and the many, many people that resemble them. All kind of bovine creatures should experience a bloody and terrible extermination. Cut the bullshit and be something real. If you do not walk on the same plane of existence as myself, get out of my way or feel my wrath…

ParticipantTopic – Affirmative Action
This is the most hypocritical policy I have ever been witness to. In our society, it is prevalant in the schools, and the workplace most of all.
For those who are unaware of what this means it is simple: hiring various minorities to fill "quotas" of how many minorities should (based on a geographical demographic, company policy, state law, whatever) be admitted to a school, workplace, etc.
In other words it means hiring minorities for the sake of having minorities.
Now, the general purpose of this policy is (supposedly) to counter racism in hiring and addmitance policies. To make sure that minorities are getting a fair chance to excel. However, this practice directly promotes what it was created to prevent: hiring on the basis of race. Now instead of discriminating against minorities you are discriminating against the majority.
The white male is THE most discriminated against demographic when it comes to finding a job, applying to a school, whatever. It simply boggles my mind as to how hypocritical and counter-productive this practice is.
Honestly, when are people going to realize that race is irrelevant in the workplace? Hire on the basis of merits and skill, not race. A black man will get a job over a white man even if the white man is more skilled for the job, simply because the company must fill quotas. (and is afriad of getting sued by said black man, but thats another rant)
I’m not even a racist or anything. I just hate the concept of hiring on the basis of color or gender as opposed to skill, no matter which way the "racism cannon" is pointed.
Everyone’s got such a boner over flaunting "diversity" these days… I work at a very large company so I see the effects of this daily.
I got more rants on racism and shit, but I’ll save those for another day.

It sounds like this bothers you at a personal level. Like it affects your workplace. I’m sorry for that Brandon, and yes demographics shouldn’t matter.

ParticipantI’ll just go with my old standby, "I hate stupid people." This translates to roughly 75% of the world population. So yes. Some of you reading this. I hate you. The rest of you, be careful out there.

KeymasterWell hello there.
And yes I’d like to hit it. And I might if that thing keeps bothering me.

Hence the cattle commentary; though i would argue that your ‘75%’ estimate is more than a tad low. :cool:

ParticipantDoes anyone else have a rant they’d like to share? Since this thread’s been dead for a while…

Keymasterlol this was probably one of the first threads on this forum. Junsui even had his friends replying above.
I wonder what that racist Aldris is up to these days? Bet he hasn’t been here in over a year. pig
