GitHub is undergoing a full-blown overhaul as execs and employees depart
It seems that a large number of posters believe that discriminating against white men is okay because they enjoy &quot;white privilege&quot;, whatever that is.  Either you believe it is okay to discriminate against someone on the basis of their skin color or you don&#x27;t.  Attempts to redefine the word notwithstanding, those who subscribe to the former philosophy are known as racists.<p>It is hard to distinguish the anti-white vitriol I see on this page from the antisemitism of yesteryear. It was often said that Jews were over-represented in various occupations not because their industriousness, intelligence or other virtues, but because of devious trickery (they plot together to deprive others of opportunities).  I fail to see how the arguments regarding white men are any different.
