@N00bPancakes yeah might just be high management pushing their agenda using HR as meat shields in case things go bad.
At least this meeting and action items were driven by the head of HR. No idea who's idea it is though. -
Companies love stuff like this.
It's easy to say "we did a search and replace and now only say 'allowlist', we're stopping racism". The nice thing is if you say anything they just label you a racist.
Instead of actually doing something helpful like scholarships for underrepresented groups or something... -
@PepeTheFrog get a different job then lmao

When you keep getting +1s on a rant you posted a month ago.
Go big or go home.
So what's up with HR people pushing people to stop using terms like master/slave and blacklist/whitelist because it's offensive to people? I mean this is simply censorship out of context. It's not blatantly hating on someone.
Did they did even ask concerned people their opinion? Is this really gonna help professional inclusion? Censoring terms will not solve issues if you cannot talk about it in an honest manner.
Fuck sake some HR people are paid for doing bullshit.
