The lawsuit alleges that as of 23 August 2020 the company’s US employee breakdown was 69% women, and that by 24 September 2024 the figure was 70.9% women.

It also says that in 2020 the firm’s US workforce was “47% Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (Bipoc)”, compared with 28 September 2024 figures showing “8.1% black, 31.7% Hispanic, 5.6% Asian, 47.8% white, 0.6% American Indian or Alaska Native, and 0.5% Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander” – adding up to 46.5% non-white, a slight drop from 2020.

I’m sure if mediocre white men had wanted to be a barista, they would’ve become a barista.

It’s a hard life to be a white man in this state I tell you.

When do they go after Tyson or JBS?

oh now there is systemic racism.

LOL

You really believe a white man can’t be hired by Starbucks to sling coffee?

Even the MO GOP thinks this lawsuit is stupid.

 

[JasonTAlexanderJR]

Im sure your lattes will come out faster and your americanos will cost much less if Starbucks fires all those women, black and brown people and all those white men apply to be baristas.

If Starbucks is using (illegal) affirmative action based DEI hiring practices then probably, yes.

I assume the MO AG wants to prohibit Starbucks from selling black coffee?

Flat whites will probably still be available.

I’m sure there are plenty of jobs digging ditches in Missouri that are available for these high flyers. They just need to apply themselves.

Bro you do realize affirmative action has been illegal for decades and DEI is not the same as affirmative action.


Actually do you even know what affirmative action is?



Why do I even bother sometimes?

You clearly have no idea what DEI hiring practices means. It’s not a synonym for AA.

Stay in your West County comfort zone and enjoy your dinner at Applebee’s tonight.

Same thing, new window dressings.

So the company’s hiring practices are racist and sexist. Democrats should be boycotting Starbucks, no?

You could simply say that this is a ridiculous lawsuit and move on with your day.

But you guys thrive on grievance politics.

DEI means turning racism from theory into practical application.

Next let’s talk diversity at BET. Pretty racist.

Next, let’s talk about mediocre white men who were denied their dream barista roles at Starbucks.

You want to die on this hill? It’s why nobody takes you - or the GOP - seriously.

 

[HROT]

The MAGA crew when Starbucks hires more white dudes, but that means more gays.

 

[JasonTAlexanderJR]

Next let’s talk diversity at BET. Pretty racist.

Or diversity at HBCUs. Im sure white men are desperate to attend Howard U.

I have no doubt you believe that.

The left doesn't actually hate racism or sexism in general, in fact they're all for it as long as it balances out the scales of their perceived social hierarchy.

 

[Phenomenally Frantastic]

I have no doubt you believe that.

Yeah…so you were saying?

Upon what basis is it wise to non-consensually enforce policy under the premise that every individual is racist?

Maybe they confused some of man buns for girls? Numbers could be skewed

Yes, I was saying DEI is not AA which your post proves. Thanks.

There is nothing wrong with recognizing we all have certain biases and beliefs which sometimes impact our decisions.

You appear to be afraid to address those biases and beliefs.

But since we are in the asking questions mode, any comments on the MAGA proposed budget deficit of 4.5 to 5 T when you were apoplectic about Biden and 2.4 T?

You ducked that question in the other thread. TIA

 

[bhawk24bob]

Sounds like Missouri needs a quota for straight white dudes in the workplace

No, it doesn’t.

Not all people are racist. In fact most people aren’t. This is simply projection and a predicate to install a racist viewpoint.

You appear to be afraid to address those biases and beliefs.

How so? Explain.

I requested context and received no response. Maybe you missed the post. Hope you weren’t ducking the question.

DEI is the biggest grift ever concocted by the extreme alt-left. Sinister, mean spirited, and based in hate.

 

[THE_DEVIL]

Accordingto the numbers...no

 

[JasonTAlexanderJR]

So let me get this correct. Initiatives focusing on equity for people who have been marginalized and excluded for 200 years are mean spirited and sinister
