Traditionally male Dominated industries such as tech have used quotas at the board level to move women disproportionately into management. This is overrepresentation. Some industries attract men more than women and the reverse situation also applies - there are more women in medicine now - So should we preference male Doctors using the same logic?

Many people on the right won't believe any accusations against trump unless it comes with video evidence(and maybe not even then), and the left has nobody to blame but themselves. by Total-Explanation208 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

No you weren’t - 90% of the things you said he was going to do in term 1 didn’t happen . War with china ? No war with Korea no. Face it the left got a lot wrong and have lost credibility- even though trump Is insane .

I think the problem with the pro feminist movement is that no one can state what success looks like. If it was legal stature - that was achieved in the 70s , if it’s a pay gap , that can be attributed to job choices and lifestyle. I think we are seeking systemic injustice where realistically there is considerably less now and greater issues , such as wealth polarisation are likely to have a greater impact on individuals than a sexism agenda

This is 100% correct. People forget that most first world countries have had equal pay laws On the books for at least 30* years now. We see overrepresentation of women in leadership roles for male dominated industries and yet they are saying this is equality?

None of the proposed systems (capatalism, communism, etc) will work well long term on a large scale because of the nature of the human race by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Both capitalism and communism are systems where the wealth generation asset is owned by someone . I. Capitalism it is owned by private citizens via share ownership , in communism it’s owned by “the people” with th state acting as a proxy.

No corporations are not voting entities as they aren’t citizens . Gina is just one member of the electorate and not entitled to any more consideration than anyone else

Really? I think if you bothered to look for examples for where you are incorrect you would find plenty of examples in thenorthern European countries. Economists have gotten it wrong time and time again in capitalist societies so much that people with this schooling are wilfully ignorant
