I lost a job offer, way back, and I was told on the sly by a trusted insider it was a demographic issue.

It stings. I know my capabilities and the post was a dream job that suited my positives perfectly. And I lost it because I was the wrong sex/race/ability/whatever.

but even in the pit of my own trivial self-pity I’m not gonna revenge-vote for people who’ll fuck everything else up just so snowflakes like me don’t need to feel that sting. I’m a grown-ass adult with only moderate entitlement.

The math doesn’t work. I’m a big fan of jobs going to the most qualified, period, but this is a baby/bathwater thing and it’s just not worth it.

The question is how many other people might vote on this or other similar stuff. Lemmy is still mostly populated by people who probably are a bit more intellectual (and willing to think beyond a single issue) but out of the overall voting pool…?
