You're clearly not familiar with hiring in tech. It's 2% because the available pool is tiny. It's not for lack of trying to hire non-white, non-asians in tech. Tech minorities are in fact prioritized in hiring AND there are countless programs to increase the pool. Aimed at girls and tech minorities, not white and asian boys.

Understood. I apologise though the aggrecious level was off the scale.

I thought it was quite a poetic and appropriate response at the time rather than flamewar'ish, but you're right.


I'm not American, yet almost all Tech companies have inherited this Identity Politics culture.

It feels like such a huge step backwards to have scholarships, fast track programmes, etc. rule out great applicants solely based on their skin colour.
