Regardless of your political stripe, we should all be concerned about the stunning admission by IBM executives of racial discrimination within their company’s ranks. Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey has resolved to confront this head-on, triggering a legal battle that should have every American, liberal or conservative, nodding in approval.
Bailey is charging ahead with a lawsuit targeted at IBM, following the shocking reveal of their corporate racism practices on live television. His reasoning? Executives admitting outright to racial quotas, with employees straying from these expectations facing sanctions in the form of reduced bonuses. Shocking? Absolutely. Even more so when you learn that these sanctions extend to job termination, with the IBM CEO himself, Arvind Krishna, boasting about the number of higher-ups axed for violating these controversial guidelines.
But it doesn’t stop there. No, the rabbit hole extends further, with IBM taking aim at specific ethnicities such as Asians. As Bailey has emphasized, Krishna did not shy away from sharing on public television that Asians were not considered an underrepresented demographic within the tech industry. Therefore, so the argument goes, they are fully deserving of punishment and exclusion of opportunities merely predicated on their ethnicity. Can we all agree this is blatant injustice?
Bailey is adamant that he’s going to combat this gross illegality which infringes on the Missouri Human Rights Act. Leaked footage from last year compounded the situation, revealing IBM’s subsidiary, Red Hat’s CEO, Matt Hicks openly admitting to firing employees who objected to the company’s skewed Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies. These same policies tied pay increases to the company’s success in meeting its diversity quotas. And who was shocked the most, in the face of this unprecedented revelation? Undoubtedly, IBM’s audience, who were brazenly lied to with a statement denying the use of racial quotas.
With mounting evidence and transparent discrimination staring him in the face, Bailey filed a lawsuit on June 20. His goal? Safeguard Missouri’s IBM employees from suffering pay cuts due to failure to meet diversity quotas and protect them from losing jobs based on their race. Moreover, to shield Missouri applicants eyeing IBM positions from racial discrimination.
In the midst of this landmark legal battle, it has become evidently clear, as Bailey announced, “IBM has adopted an unlawful policy that blatantly favors applicants of a certain skin color over others…” Discrimination in any form, whether at the state or federal level, is a punishable offence.
So there you have it, folks. In an era where we are constantly bombarded with cries of systematic racism and discrimination against conservatives, it’s high time we band together and hold these corporations accountable. Contact news outlets like ABC News, CBS News, and NBC News and prod them to report on the leftist DEI ideology running rampant in corporate America. The rights of countless Americans depend on it.
