Was it OK for the NYT to discriminate against a white man? By New York Magazine:
A white male New York ‘Times’ employee filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission alleging the paper had discriminated against him by not giving him a promotion because he is a white male.
On Tuesday, the EEOC, now controlled by a Trump appointee who has vowed to help wage the president’s war against DEI culture, filed a civil-rights lawsuit against the ‘Times’ arguing that the paper’s efforts to satisfy its diversity goals amounted to “unlawful employment practices.”
Here’s the crazy thing about this.
The issue is not whether or not the white guy was discriminated against.
We all know he was.
The issue is whether or not it was OK he was discriminated against.
Crazy.
The NYT and the left try to defend this discrimination by assuming group rights:
People at the paper say the claim is absurd. “I’m sorry, there are plenty of white guys at the top of the New York Times. Not really something that’s holding you back,” said the reporter.”
Ridiculous, People are individuals:
When we reach the pearly gates, we don’t enter as a group but as individuals. We should act and be treated as individuals. But most people never evolved past the junior high need to be a member of a group or clique.
Minority groups don’t have rights. That should not be controversial. The reason minority groups don’t have rights is because groups don’t have rights. In the American constitutional system, individuals — not groups — hold the rights. There is literally no such thing as “rights of minority groups.”
