The question is did they get those jobs because they were the best for the job or did they get them because the companies are scared of the woke mob so favor promoting women? If the later then it might explain why a lot of the companies are on the decline. Of course there are women that do a great job but very few have the drive and ambition to make it to executive level which means if lots are being promoted companies might be doing it for stupid gender reasons not ability reasons.

Woke BS. It doesn’t matter what gender or race they are. The best person for the job should get the job. I’d love to make a bet that over the next decade companies trying to force diversity by picking the one woman or one minority candidate for the job will do worse because odds are they’re getting promoted for the woke PR boost not for their ability. Some deserve it of course but certainly not all. So often now you see 5 candidates for a job but 1 of them is a woman so while it’s not explicitly given as the reason she gets the job because it helps “balance gender numbers”. This is not good business practice. Elon Musk said it best: “we can’t hire all the people we need so if a candidate is available we don’t care about their gender or ethnicity.”

500 board diversity: Men still dying in conflicts more , and living on the street in greater numbers, in prison more and committing suicide more, and getting their kids and money taken off them in far greater numbers than women. When does this shit even out? I guess men on the whole don’t want to play victim, so I guess never.
