Al Sharpton is the heavyweight champion shakedown artist. Recently, emails between Sony Pictures Chairwoman Amy Pascal and Scott Rudin were surfaced by hackers. "Should I ask him if he liked DJANGO?" she wrote, demonstrating, at worst, trifling racial insensitivity. Nonetheless, this is taken as de facto evidence of racism at Sony Pictures, and casus belli for the "civil rights activist" Sharpton.
The world waited breathlessly for word on whether Sharpton would call for her Pascal's resignation. "The jury is still out on where we go with Amy. We're not going to be satisfied until we see something concrete done." That "something concrete" appears to be letting Sharpton have a say over how Sony makes movies.
Sharpton again gets paid not to cry racism.
Racketeering as a business model is also seems to be part of Anita Sarkeesian's curriculum vitae. Before becoming a feminist, Sarkeesian "ran fraudulent tele-seminars about 'determining business success using handwriting' for...three years for a company that was repeatedly accused of fraud."
Which begs the question, why is Intel Corporation partnering with Feminist Frequency? Intel has announced a $300 million "workplace diversity" initiative for their company. This will effectively institutionalize discrimination against white, Indian and Asian men in favor of current protected classes, such as blacks and women. Somebody got the message to Intel CEO Brian Krzanich: disparate impact is de facto evidence of discrimination. Would be a shame if anything happened to your publicly traded corporation.
Which esteemed corporation will be the next target of these predatory tactics?
Up until today, I didn't think I had a reason to consider AMD over Intel for my next PC. I do now.
