I know that, of course, I was using my initial points to set a frame of reference that the word "discrimination!" is a thought-terminating cliche.
This comment thread is a completely bad faith framing of the issue. Creating safe spaces for women in tech isn't discrimination. It's elevating a traditionally underrepresented demographic. Lemme guess, you guys talk a lot about divorce court right?
600 dollars for a ticket to a conference is creating a safe space for women?
I don't know the last time I talked about divorce court. Maybe we should be using facts instead of guesses.
I think you've misinterpreted me. I'm saying that it's not discrimination to force people to stop discriminating in favor of white men.
When did "white" come into it?
You want data and logic from someone who things that the government should legally force people to be bigoted?
race is one of the many topics facing HR professionals today
