The head of the U.S. agency for enforcing workplace civil rights posted a social media call-out urging white men to come forward if they have experienced race or sex discrimination at work.

“Are you a white male who has experienced discrimination at work based on your race or sex? You may have a claim to recover money under federal civil rights laws,” U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Chair Andrea Lucas, a vocal critic of DEI, wrote on X Wednesday evening. The post urged eligible workers to reach out to the agency “as soon as possible” and referred users to the agency’s fact sheet on “DEI-related discrimination” for more information.

Lucas’ post, viewed millions of times, was shared about two hours after Vice President JD Vance posted an article he said “describes the evil of DEI and its consequences,” which also received millions of views. Lucas responded to Vance’s post saying: “Absolutely right @JDVance. And precisely because this widespread, systemic, unlawful discrimination primarily harmed white men, elites didn’t just turn a blind eye; they celebrated it. Absolutely unacceptable; unlawful; immoral.”

She added that the EEOC “won’t rest until this discrimination is eliminated.” Neither the agency nor Vance responded immediately to requests for additional comment.

We are back to 1993 again.

Newsweek had a famous cover (and an article - White Male Paranoia) taken from a film that released that year called "Falling Down" starring Michael Douglas (that i did eventually see on cable at some point a bunch of years ago), and they did a missive on what might have been going on during that time. I still have a threadbare copy of that issue in a file cabinet.



The film was definitely an OTT "dramedy" but was definitely a commentary on the angst going on that has apparently resurfaced.

1. This title made me laugh. Try being a woman for a while in white male dominated America.

3. Or a black person in Trump's white supremacy America.

The amount of energy, time, and money wasted on racism in this country is astonishing and seemingly never ending. Racial animosity is the driving force behind Republican policies, along with rewarding rich people.

So now unqualified white men finally get to say they are being discriminated against . Give me a crying towel. Every job I held had a white guy at the top. Clearly, we know what happens when unqualified white men get appointed to positions they know nothing about.

11. Yes, all the losers and misfits of society

don't have to take responsibility for their miserable lot in life. There must be something or someone to blame other than themselves.

13. They already do . Remember that black girl doing some science project with some plants ?

Some guy reported her. There are always George Zimmerman types.

This is the discrmination that these type of people feel. Why should he have to live in a world where a black girl is checking out some trees (they were public in a public place).

14. "Are you a white male with a black lady boss?

Do you not get your way whenever you speak out in meetings?
Are workplace rules against racial and sexual epithets crushing your free speech in the workplace?

Call the attorneys at Habba and Halligan. We'll take your case and fight for your supremacy at any cost, even if we have to get disbarred in the process. Call 1-800-HOO-TERS now!"

15. Financial compensation? That's not how it works for the rest of us who are not white cis men

The offender gets training and a note on their file. Maybe after 100 incidents, it's enough t to say there's a pattern and the offender can then be fired
