The program on its face is in direct violation of Federal and (I would be willing to bet A LOT) Washington state laws concerning sexual discrimination in hiring.

The trap the marxists have built for themselves is that a law that says you can't discriminate based on sex means -- you can't discriminate based on sex.

A better law would be one that says "You can't discriminate". But I have no idea how you could ever enforce something like that. Thus we end up back at the only plan that has ever worked: Meritocracy!

Remove federal manipulation of the market through wealth redistribution from tax slaves. Let the free market decide. I am fully in favor of letting businesses destroy their reputation and eventually their existence. Just so long as no taxpayer ever has to carry the burden of their bad management.

Of course the real "problem" they are trying to fix is that they want to gift these jobs to people that have no qualifications to hold them.

If they really cared about not discriminating against X demographic, they would’ve just passed a law saying that asking for identifying information such as gender, ethnicity, etc on an application is illegal. Can’t help but wonder if they knew that hiring people based only on their qualifications wouldn’t produce the diversity they were hoping for, and would expose some ugly truths.

Yep, the absolutely last thing they want is a blind interview process.

That's why they're pushing the "post meritocracy " narrative. Competency is a male tool of oppression. Therefore we need an actively curated, diversified team. Meaning, not white.

Personally i think you should be able to discriminate who to hire in your own business, especially about which employees you want to have around.

Even if they are perfectly capable of doing whatever the job requires them to do, do you really want to hire someone that might, one day, destroy the life of one of your employees with a false rape accusation and with that the reputation of your own business or even cause you legal troubles?

Do you really want to hire someone that you know is genetically more inclined to violence?

Do you really want to hire someone that might turn your business into shit following feminist ideas like they did at Google?

Do you really want to hire someone that might, one day, start demanding equality of outcome instead than equality of opportunity and meritocracy?

Discrimination is a way to protect yourself, your employees and your business. Why aren't you allowed to do so?

What they wrote was "you can't discriminate based on sex". What they meant was "you can't discriminate against women".

What they wrote was "you can't discriminate based on race, ethnicity, or national origin". What they meant was "you can't discriminate against niggers".

What they wrote was "you can't discriminate based on sexual orientation". What they meant was "you can't discriminate against faggots".

What they wrote was "you can't discriminate based on religion". What they meant was "you can't discriminate against Jews or Muslims, but fuck Christians. Oh, and especially fuck Buddhists, with all that Oh Ma Ni Pad Me Hum shit".

What they wrote was "you can't discriminate based on veteran status". What they meant was "lol, no one is going to win a lawsuit based on that, so let's toss that in to sell it to the pro-war members of congress".

The real question that needs answering is how did not being able to discriminate result in equality of outcome? Should it not have resulted in equality of opportunity where an interview is only conducted after an employer has reviewed your resume and determined that you would be suitable for the position and even then only to confirm that you can show up on time, aren't covered in tattoos, etc.? I know that kind of system has been tried and resulted in a huge number of white males being selected by the computers put in charge of selecting people based on merit alone, but is not going against that actual discrimination and a retarded business practice in general as it purposefully selects someone less suitable anyway?

It's a honking mad world we live in.
