Buzzfeed says Twitter's problem is too many fucking white males. - Yes they are completely serious.

They were also limited by a workforce that multiple former employees say fundamentally didn’t understand what abuse looks and feels like. “The decision-makers were not people who got abuse and didn’t understand that it’s not about content, it’s about context,” Miley said. “If Twitter had people in the room who’d been abused on the internet — meaning not just straight, white males — when they were creating the company, I can assure you the service would be different.” A 2015 Women, Action, and the Media study revealed that, as of 2014, Twitter’s leadership was 79% male and 72% white.

One month later, Anita Sarkeesian, a feminist writer and video game critic, took to her Tumblr page and posted 157 of examples of misogyny, gendered insults, victim blaming, incitement to suicide, and rape and death threats she’d received in a recent six-day stretch on Twitter. Despite the overtures from Twitter, the trolls were winning.

Literally rape!

I feel like this is a story for the pinned clickbait/smaller stories thread and should be merged.

So those white males should take their business elsewhere. Seriously, a so-called "business" is going full AIDS Skrillex and screaming "YOU'RE FUCKING A BUNCH OF WHITE MALES!" at its single largest customer base.

And they wonder why their stock price is swirling the toilet.

Twitter does ten times Buzzfeed's total value in net sales.

I think I'll go with the white boys.

Twitter isn't, though. They're aggressively pissing off that very demographic.

Well, I learn something new about my standardized patriarchy-issued man card and what it entitles me to every day. After learning that I am entitled to a well-paid job and unconditional success in every field I chose without any prerequisite for effort or hardships and that I can't be raped, discriminated against, be the victim of a hatecrime or oppression, I now also learn that I am invincible to online harassment.

If straight white males mean rat kings, then they are right tho.

You literally could not talk such shit about any ethnic group in existence other than white males without being drummed out of the profession as a disgusting racist piece of garbage.

Buzzfeed's problem is that their content is both original and good. However, their original content is not good, and their good content is not original.

I've seen more useless "how to" videos from them than anything else from YouTube's recommendations. Speaks volumes of their content.

It's really retarded but what's the big deal? It's very normal as buzzfeed goes.

The white males that discovered and established the United States and made it what it is today are apparently "evil and oppressive".
I bet all the money in the world that these SJWs would systematically oppress and abuse those same white people if they ruled the world.

It's already basically acceptable to discriminate against FUCKING WHITE MALES when you're hiring.

You can be a business and say or do practically anything and it will not affect the sock price; however, when you're over 10 years old and have never once turned a profit, and are bleeding money all over the place, your stock price is going to be in the shitter.

Hell, the only reason anyone on Wall Street cares is because their lack of profits means less retail investors to churn.
