I assume the discussion here surround Affirmative Action relates to mandatory gnome barbarian quotas? Right? We're talking about gaming here?

Until you remove ANYTHING and EVERYTHING from admission guidelines and hiring requirements that are not directly and 100% related to experience, talent, and qualifications to do the work you will have people complain and they will have a right to complain because this is a country of free speech. If you are tired of hearing it then you should stop listening. Your sensitive ears are not their problem, they are only your problem.
You mean hire someone other than a stereo geek to write the installation instructions for the stereo so that normal humans can understand them?

Second, cool it with the "privilege" crap. The implication is that white males are somehow unable to understand whatever point you're making, and therefore can and should have their opinions dismissed. That is exactly as "toxic" as any other kind of -ism. We're all using our free time to have a discussion on an internet message board, so we're all "privileged" to one degree or another, and nothing stands to be gained by hanging labels on each other.
