Assholes in the news

[Rev. Rye]

Coca Cola are assholes for pushing one of the most racist things I've ever seen on their employees. "Diversity training".

By all means, let’s continue at our current levels of oppression, arrogance, certainty, defense, ignorance and pride. Heaven forfend we should listen to people and believe what they say. While we’re about it, we can continue to be apathetic and non-inclusive.

I can see the point in what they’re trying to say here. That said, there has to have been a better way of describing it than “being less white.” Keeping your privilege in check, perhaps? That would probably cover a lot more ground since there’s more to privilege than just your race (gender identity and sexual orientation, for one thing, also class, which may not be as relevant in this case since they have the same employer). Christ, isn’t acknowledgement of intersectionality supposed to be a big part of shit like this?
