If anybody wanted extra proof that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is a barely-closeted MAGA dude-bro who believes girls and another demographic that falls beneath the “range” banner is of lesser worth and must be subordinate to good outdated American white males, they needn’t look any additional than his feedback on how masculinity within the company world has been “neutered” because of far too many ladies being employed.

Meta is dismantling its worker range and fairness packages, which have been in place on the firm for years, as a result of, because the Washington Publish famous, “the expertise business — together with Meta — as soon as praised DEI packages as vital to its success,” however now, “many high leaders have criticized the packages in recent times, alleging they’re answerable for unqualified hires, inflating payrolls and decreasing requirements throughout the sector.”

White males just like the man Zuckerberg is clearly taking his cues from, Elon Musk, have been making the declare that DEI is inflicting certified white males to lose out on jobs with a view to make manner for underqualified girls and folks of shade for years now. In fact, none of those perpetually disgruntled white males, together with Musk, have been in a position to current a single shred of proof that the “DEI hires” they hate a lot are, actually, underqualified. (Musk actually cited white folks’s “replies” to the DEI subject on social media as “proof” backing his anti-DEI narrative.)

As for Zuckerberg — who has additionally adopted in Musk’s footprints by saying Meta will get rid of fact-checking from its platforms — he doesn’t even look like claiming company girls are underqualified — he simply thinks the “vitality” girls carry to the company world is just too “female” and must be met with extra “masculine vitality” even supposing males are nonetheless overwhelmingly dominant in each company discipline. And, in fact, Zuckerberg selected to share his archaic nonsense with the final word professor in pseudo-intellectual dud-bro-ology, Joe Rogan.

From Fortune:

“Masculine vitality I believe is nice, and clearly society has loads of that, however I believe that company tradition was actually making an attempt to get away from it,” Zuckerberg stated throughout an almost three-hour-long dialog with podcaster Joe Rogan printed on Friday.

“It’s such as you need female vitality, you need masculine vitality,” Zuckerberg stated throughout the episode of The Joe Rogan Expertise. “I believe that that’s all good. However I do assume the company tradition form of had swung towards being this considerably extra neutered factor,” he added, earlier than discussing his passions for blended martial arts and looking invasive pigs in Hawaii.

Zuckerberg, who launched his profession by ranking the attractiveness of ladies at Harvard College, added that he grew up with three sisters and has three daughters, and desires girls to achieve firms.

“In the event you’re a girl going into an organization, it most likely feels prefer it’s too masculine. It’s — there isn’t sufficient of the vitality that you could be naturally have,” he informed Rogan. “You need girls to have the ability to succeed and have firms that may unlock all the worth from having nice folks it doesn’t matter what their background or gender.”

So, after acknowledging that there’s nonetheless “lots” of “masculine vitality” in “society,” and that “In the event you’re a girl going into an organization, it most likely feels prefer it’s too masculine,” which is totally what most working girls expertise, he proceeded to notice that “you need girls to have the ability to succeed,” simply earlier than saying, “However I believe these items can all all the time go somewhat far.”

Zuckerberg sounds just like the weight-reduction plan model of Vice President-elect JD Vance, who has denigrated skilled girls who selected to not have youngsters, calling them “childless cat women,” and has additionally declared that the “entire function of the postmenopausal feminine” is to be a grandmother. The Meta CEO can be echoing the patriarchal white male nonsense of NFL star Harrison Butker, who referenced “the tyranny of range, fairness and inclusion,” whereas primarily telling girls who had been graduating faculty that they’d be happier within the kitchen and birthing infants than they’d be having careers.

Satirically, the one who outlined Meta’s plan to purge itself of every little thing DEI was a girl, Meta’s vp of human assets, Janelle Gale, in accordance with the Publish.

One can solely surprise if Zuckerberg has pulled her to the facet and let her know she’s bringing an excessive amount of “female vitality” to his “company tradition.”

It’s nearly as if the mainstream “manosphere” is only a bunch of unhappy little white males whose insecurities flare up on the mere considered girls and folks of shade infiltrating the positions of energy, affect and status that, for the overwhelming majority of U.S. historical past, had been solely held by unhappy little white males.

Pathetic.
