    LGBT contains 4, cis woman is a 5th, and is not the entirety of the list.

    Why do you have to be offended by everything that doesn’t align with your exact view of the world. I’m going to assume you aren’t a cis male based on your responses here, and if you are that exact attitude is where these discriminate views come from.

      Alright, I’ve read enough of your inane yammering for one lifetime. Blocked.

      Who said they’re offended? You were “offended” enough to make the initial comment, they just replied to counter your bad arguments.

      And empowering people doesn’t mean discrimination. Especially if the people being empowered are at a disadvantage. Your comment reeks of bigoted dog whistles

        I didn’t post the original comment. And they were offended enough to start questioning the intelligence of someone asking a question that honestly, sounds like a good point - its targeting everyone but straight males. Let alone i have no idea where they got groups from.

        I will be honest, don’t know where you got empowerment from.

          It’s not taking away from, oppressing, or discriminating against cis men to empower the other genders and to say that it is is cause to question a person’s intelligence. You got your empowerment by beating down everyone that wasn’t a big, swinging dick like you, it’s time to let others have some stake in the world

            If I had a big, swinging dick I’d be posting on onlyfans instead of lemmy.

            Original poster never mentioned that it was taking away from cis men, only wouldn’t it be an easier thing to say - let’s be honest, no one is trying to bring down boards with low white male members, or bring out policies that further their interest… except for the likes of white power and KKK, but they aren’t exactly beacons of equality.

              LMFAO no one said you had a big swinging dick, I said you are one. Because all you care about is what cis, white men are getting out of the deal. Y’all have been on top of the world for fucking ever, white men literally rule the world, time to let the other genders be seen.

          Ah thank you for the correction. However they were not questioning the intelligence, they were questioning the morals of the comment op, as shown by their use of “actually

          Another correction, sexuality has nothing to do with the article. It’s specifically women, trans, and nonbinary people. Which is not targeting everyone except straight males.

          What is targeting straight males is the hiring departments in Hollywood. If you read the article, it said less than 6% of directors are women. That’s messed up. A third of speaking roles are women, trans, or nb. They are underrepresented by a long shot.

          Empowering is what the goal of this all is. It’s in the title.

            I read different into their use of actually, but this is a peril of internet text based discussions.

            Make no mistake, I fully agree that Hollywood is sexist and racist. My issue is how quick we swing from “its not ok to hire based on race and gender” to “let’s focus on hiring and development based on race and gender”. Did one group get better off in the past - absolutely. But where is the line of it being acceptable to be racist and sexist - is it never ok or is it what society is ok with, putting us right back 30 years ago?
