Facebook’s Black People Problem by Mark Luckie

Is there any validity to what he wrote? Imo there aren’t many black developers, designers, product manager or in tech in general compared to Asians and White people.

If I read it correctly, he wants Facebook’s employees to be represented exactly like the demographics that use Facebook. Since more brown people use Facebook, WhatsApp, and instagram to communicate, then Facebook should effectively hire more brown people, Indians, Spanish, and Hispanics. And fire whites. The irony is Facebook and Instagram are used more for bulls****, recording hood fights, and trying to one up each other in the “black” community. And WhatsApp is used to spread hate and fake news in the brown communities in South America and Africa. So, I really don’t know why this guy even wants brown people to use this product. Or work there.

I’m indian and I think this black Mark guy is a bi*ch. There are much larger pools of asians and white people compared to blacks in tech. It’s just about numbers. What HR is supposed to make its way into the hood to find one black developer? I don’t get it

¯\_(ツ)_/¯, but I am getting tired of the word “black”. It’s an overused word that doesn’t describe any type of human skin tone on this planet.

FANG companies have a problem with people wanting a reason to complain about something one day it’s diversity, next day it’s inclusion, next it about Trannys and their bullshit it’s like the the F up and do your work or get lost

Wouldn’t be surprised. He was at Reddit for 8 months and did absolutely nothing

Equal opportunity not equal outcome. Big difference.

“Opportunity” starts to deviate years before conception. So society tries to compensate post mortem
