Comment on Apple’s diversity chief out after outcryparent

Oh come on, you know what he meant.

This is getting to a point that even genuinely talking about it, and rightly so, risks backfiring at you because there’s always somebody willing to make 10 extra mental steps to find it offensive.

Its really frustrating that peoples innocent statements are purposely twisted like this to suit personal agendas.

They could have easily omitted the "assuming they can do the job" part without affecting the statement. There's a reason that it was added.

Exactly, and the reason is the implied risk of unchecked "diversity" leading to hiring underqualified people just for the sake of boosting quotas.
