Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it. Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!

Fantasy liberal trope. Get over yourself.
Hate in Los Alamos
From the LANL Monitor

At the end, some of the demonstrators joined one of the creators of a banner placed over the Diamond Drive crosswalk reading “Black Lives Matter.” Shortly after it was placed there about a week ago, someone changed it to “All Lives Matter.”
“Unfortunately, it was changed again this morning to “All Lives Matter,” Isaiah Espinosa said.
I am deeply saddened know know that there are people at LANL who think "All lives Matter".

We are going to be entering a world where sarcasm is going to be a very dangerous thing, you could be canceled, fired, censored or even injured. I say we should just jump to Pol Pot methods and get it over with. In any case HBO just banned Gone with the Wind. Fortunately I know that youtube will never ban certain rap songs. By the way the American Physical Society has declared a strike today for everyone to consider various aspects of racism and police interactions with certain minatory groups. People are trying to figure out what to do today. I suggest they just listens to voices of the oppressed. I found a few good songs that cover the subtle, complex and systematic racism with police interactions can be found below by such voices of the unheard like N.W.A and Bodycount. Enjoy

Sounds like a typical work day. What's the big deal?
