@Dr. NEETzsche, GED If my sex/race works against me in any way during any corporate/university process (it does), I objectively am. It’s just a conference. Not everything is an invitation for you to go on another rant about DEI and how unfair the world is from your PoV. You completely derailed the original point of the post because you get emotional over this topic. You view having to compete with white men on a level playing field a threat to you, and it’s because you’re inferior to us. It’s ironic for you to insist that I’m discriminating against you because you hate the idea of these conferences, while discriminating against me because of my sex and race. Let’s not pretend that it’s the first time you’ve gone out of your way to do this to me, because you did it a lot in DMs and other public threads before. And yet, you have the audacity to say that the world is set against you.

@Operation Wetback 🇺🇸 >It’s just a conference. Not everything is an invitation for you to go on another rant about DEI It's a DEI conference that aims to exclude me on the basis of my sex because the people in it know they can't compete with me without that kind of discrimination. If you want me to stop pointing out that you are discriminating against me, then stop discriminating against me. It's that simple. >It’s ironic for you to insist that I’m discriminating against you because you hate the idea of these conferences, while discriminating against me because of my sex and race. I don't have to discriminate against you. That's the thing. You view sex-neutral and race-neutral practices as discrimination against you because you know you can't compete with white men like myself without handicapping. You're terrified someone like me might take away your training wheels because if we do, you would fall off the bike immediately.

@Dr. NEETzsche, GED You always operate under the assumption that I’m participating in whatever has rustled your jimmies. I’ve never been to any of these conferences. It would be funny if it wasn’t so pathetic to see you grasping at straws.
