Our study isn't showing us the results we wanted, so clearly something must be wrong with the people taking part in it. Nothing wrong with our assumptions. This is science after all and we are academics so trust us, we are right you are wrong. Now, to get the desired results that we know are true and accurate, we will have all white men place a mark on their resumes so we can instantly toss them and pull from only a pool of women and minorities. That will then prove that when hiring based on merit alone, women and minorities do better which clearly shows a current bias towards white men when hiring using attributes showing the gender/race of the candidate.

You mean this as satire. It's, unfortunately, probably an accurate inner monologue.
