And I may have been sought out by employers and given much higher salaries than my counterparts and only had to show up on paydays to collect my paychecks, never really doing any work due to affirmative actions type quotas. I would be literally unfirable.
As I white I saw all of the above happen and more than once.

This is so obviously true for anyone who's been in the corporate world ... which has become the home of woke. But, it sound strange because speech codes forbid anyone saying this hence we all pretend it doesn't exist.
Usually, when several people of roughly comparable competence competed for a job and the black guy was selected ... that was ok with me.
But, when an incompetent boob was selected pretty much because of the color of the skin ... I had, and have, a problem with that.
To put it in personal terms, would anyone want an affirmative action heart surgeon operating on them?
