Dilbert is cancelled...

Ugh.. You've nailed it then. Can't argue with that. So I still think my point was right about the statement itself but it appears I mis-judged it when it comes to it becoming a slogan like this. The world has gone mad.

Yep.

[SueEllen]

The world is mad.

FTFY

And Dilbert is still cancelled.

"All lives matter" as a response to the exclusionary "Black lives matter" was decried as a racist slogan.

[woohoo]

With all the division going on in the US over the last few years you didn't think it was predicatable that race relations was going to take a nose dive in the last 10 years???

But at the same time never has there never been more done to be more inclusive, companies mandate diversity training, universities do similar courses with staff and students. Companies are ensuring that their employees reflect the population mix same for Universities.

[woohoo]

FTFY

And Dilbert is still cancelled.

You can still subscribe to it if you want. I like it but not that much.

Well it does seem to be used by those who deny there is a racism problem. It's a dismissive response typically used as a way to stop talking about black issues. It is at best ignorant of what "BLM" is saying (by people who think BLM is exclusionary or make that claim for their own agenda). I don't think ALM is racist but it's not used used by anyone who seems to care about racism so it's not hard to see it getting a bad rep, just as the extremists clinging to BLM give that a bad rep.

Which is absolutely true to the letter. You could argue it's gone too far, for example the RAF's recent recruitment drive which was deemed discrimatory but you are absolutely right. But the poll is asking about Race Relations which is completely different. With all the police murders, riots, the BLM and so on it has got to have damaged relations. Race has been at the top of the news for years now so it doesn't matter how much companies are inclusive and the world of opportunities for black people, iIt's how the relationships between white and black people are and nothing that has happened in the last few years can have helped it, which it clearly hasn't.

it'll all be better once the world notices all your virtuous pages of beatific prose, for sure

Age diversity seems to have been forgotten about.

[woohoo]

Age diversity seems to have been forgotten about.

Well alzheimer's will do that to you.
