Straight White Men Banned From Equality Conference

I present to you wacko lefty "equality":

The University and College Union has banned straight, white men from attending their "equality" conferences.

Union said that members must declare their ‘protected characteristic’ – whether they are gay, disabled, female or from an ethnic minority – when applying to attend.

According to Mail Online, activists say that it means representatives who do not qualify cannot participate in all of the discussions – even though they have been elected by their union branch.

They would be barred from ‘break-out’ sessions that organisers claim are a ‘safe space’ for those with the ‘protected characteristics’ to talk openly about their situations.

  1. Some people are more equal than others.

  2. Actually, isn't this merely the freedom of association? We should be grateful for their bringing attention to, and approval of, this fundamental freedom.

  3. What about mulatos (I'm sorry, is that offensive?) men who once had a gay trist but are now straight. Or straight mulatos? What if the man is 1/4 black and bi-sexual. What about old white men? Is Ageism a protected class?

    I think they need to be very clear with their oppresion matrix about who is qualified for this conference which will obviously have a wide range of opinions discussed.

    1. Some clever fellow could create a bingo card based on that matrix...

  4. It's encouraging to see leftists discover freedom of association.

  5. It's impossible to try to parody this stuff, because each new day's reality tops anything you could have dreamed up.
