Apparently, race and sexual preference are "skills" that the US Dept of State is hiring for!

Critical skills needed within the agency:

- Minority students/African American
- First Generation (Student Support Services)
- Diverse Sexual Orientations
- Computer Science & Engineering

Certainly, white people and white males specifically are impeding America from the first world as evident by the shining beacons of Africa and Central America.

Way to go Hillary. You are going to really help the country by sending some cross gender person to someplace like Afghanistan where they are oh so understanding of stuff like that.

God, no. Especially for engineering or CS positions.

Over-representation is a problem!

McCarthy and the Birch Society were right.

Mad? Nah. Disgusted? Definitely.

I feel like it's illegal too. AFAIK you're not supposed to ask those sorts of things during the hiring process.

I mean, it makes sense from a standpoint. You need to send people all around the world to deal with all types of people. It'd be stupid to send a homophobic person to Uraguay or a gay person to Saudi Arabia.

Portlandia’s feminist bookstore says, “frick Portlandia”
quote:

Across six seasons, Portlandia has used Portland’s real-life feminist bookstore In Other Words as the basis and filming location for its fictional analogue Women & Women First—a relationship that even predates the IFC series, dating back to Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein’s earliest comedy work as Thunderant. But as Willamette Week reports, that relationship has now become as contentious as that between the show’s Toni and Candice and the whole of the outside world. In Other Words issued a lengthy statement on its website explaining that it’s severed ties with the show. And it also released a far more succinct one, via a sign that first appeared in its window this past spring: “frick Portlandia.”


That sign accuses the comedy—in which Armisen and Brownstein portray the storeowners as perpetually offended, thoroughly humorless firebrands—of various unforgivable transgressions, among them “Transmisogyny – Racism – Gentrification – Queer Antagonism – Devaluation of Feminist Discourse.” Attempts by the Willamette Week seeking elaboration were answered first with demands that the paper promote its online fundraising campaign. After the Week declined, it garnered this similarly combative response:

“After some consideration and research we’ve decided to officially tell the Willamette Weekly [sic] to go frick themselves. Your paper has absolutely zero journalistic professionalism and you are scummy rape apologists. Thanks for the opportunity tho! Have a great night.”

You mean I can't ask women during the hiring process if they would prefer to give blowjobs or go down on another woman?

Y'all are no fun. Guess I've got to redo our in house personality test.

The bottom right sign is exactly what this whole "diversity" and social justice movement is all about. Making shitty people feel better for failure.
