Hard work is important, but the implication here that pure meritocracy created highly homogenous companies is asinine. I am one of the privileged few that gets to live in this magical place, be told great all of us are, and how we worked hard to get here. We all are great, and many of us did work hard. But that does not mean that being great and working hard are enough. When I look around me, I see almost exclusively people that look like me. This should not be the case.

They took your article down because you are very short-sighted. You believe everyone has had the same privileges and opportunities you've had, thus you expect the same "success" from others. Step into someone else's shoes for a change "Bro".
