Posted in Deception, Free/Libre Software, GNU/Linux, IBM at 1:45 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz
Summary: Diversity and tolerance are absolutely essential, but those who preach or lecture us about it most loudly (their financial means or privilege enable media reach) set a bad example and are mostly opportunistic hypocrites who perpetuate the status quo
Earlier this week the Linux Foundation released this press release entitled “Linux Foundation Focuses on Science and Research to Advance Diversity and Inclusion in Software Engineering” and it evidently charmed the target audience, which wrote: “The Linux Foundation has launched the Software Developer Diversity and Inclusion (SDDI) project to increase diversity and inclusion in software engineering by examining and promoting best practices from research and industry.”
“They don’t get a job at the Foundation by participating in protests but by cheering for billionaires.”The problem is, as we’ve noted before, this is a distraction from racists and bigots who profit from war. They don’t get a job at the Foundation by participating in protests but by cheering for billionaires. They shamelessly hijack “BLM” whilst employing nobody black and incidentally it’s the same issue in IBM (hijacking grievances of blacks after working to ethnically cleanse them). They support monopolies, not diversity, and their attitude towards women is that of sheer exploitation, as we noted in:
Journey Back in History: Misconduct or Disorderly Conduct (Stuffing Money Down the Fronts of Stewardesses’ Blouses, According to Witness Account) by Arthur Watson of IBM (Founder’s Son and Former IBM Chief), Followed by Watson’s Admission and ResignationIBM (Red Hat) Lectured FSF That It Needed More Diversity, But Was It Looking at the Mirror? IBM and Red Hat Are Even Less Diverse.Diversity Comes in Many FormsMeet the IBM Watsons: Sponsors of Richard Nixon and Abusers of WomenThe ‘Access Watson Tapes’: Rare Richard Nixon Tape on Former IBM President and Son of IBM’s Founder Engaging in Sexual Abuse of Women
Zemlin “and the boys” (and the corporations they front for) don’t care about women or black people, but they’re being advised to obscure and hide it. Press releases and imaginary slush funds don’t cut it. █
