Looking at this from Europe, this just feels ludicrous, like we are all taking crazy pills, and slowly this kind of mentality is infecting everywhere. Anything which focuses on race first is inherently racist.
I do not care for your ethnicity, race, gender, or religion. If you are qualified for the job, you get the job.
I just remembered reading on TechCrunch a VC fund which only accepts bids for women only led startups. How the hell is something like that allowed? I was honestly temped to apply just to see what they would say. Sorry you are a man, please go away.
And I know there are going to be people to downvote me for stating this, but just imagine if the opposite happened, if someone made a young male VC fund... Heads would roll...
It is seeping in here as well, especially the Green movement seems to be infiltrated.
Austrian Greens split over wokeness into two parties. German Greens are basically taken over, with a few personal exceptions (Boris Palmer). And given how much climate change interests voters, we may get a hefty dose of racial wokeness as an unexpected side effect.
The VC fund is something entirely different. You can choose who you are doing business with, if you make decisions based on anything else than ability and product you probably will miss out on profit, but in the end, no harm was done.
Also, this stuff comes to Europe. It's already in Germany where some public jobs have to meet certain male/female quotas, but also the universities, which are filled with this PC crap.
