You cant balance it. In order to balance it, you already have to put these people into certain boxes, which is already pretty offensive. Then you'll have to descriminate against people in certain boxes in order to balance it. ITS WRONG. Stop grouping people up based on their skin color or sex or whatever. stop it.

You are assuming a lot there. I haven’t done and said none of it. I never advocated for quotas.

> You cant balance it.

You can’t indeed if you deny there may be a problem in the first place.
