> The only thing that matters is if someone can do a job - period!

That's an absurd lie. People convicted of sex crimes shouldn't have jobs with children. Foreign nationals shouldn't have top security or intelligence jobs. People with a record of substance abuse shouldn't operate heavy machinery. And so on an so forth... I'm boring myself with how obvious this all is.

And maybe, just maybe, extremely powerful jobs that have an outsized influence on our society shouldn't only be offered to straight white men. It's clearly not as obvious of an argument as my previous examples, but it's not absurd either.

It’s not that jobs only go to white men. It’s that you don’t deny a job to a white man (or any other identity group) because they are a white man.

Racism is still racism, even if you claim to be “correcting” some imagined harm through your racism
