Those unfortunate enough not to be regarded as “disadvantaged” are a shrinking minority in moonbat-ruled Washington State.
Via Post Millennial:
Democrats in the Washington state legislature are pushing a proposal that establishes a list of demographic groups that are presumed to be “socially disadvantaged” for the purposes of state business certification. Based on the breadth of those categories, roughly 70 percent of Washington state residents would fall under the bill’s definition of “socially disadvantaged.”
Where liberals hold sway, it is a major advantage to be “disadvantaged” if you seek employment or government contracts.
HB 2684 states that “women, Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino, Native American, Asian, Pacific Islander, Native Hawaiian, Middle Eastern/North African, LGBTQ, and other individuals identified by the OMWBE [Office of Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises] in rule are presumed to be socially disadvantaged for the purpose of state certification.” The bill also covers people whose ancestry originates in a wide range of countries and regions across East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Pacific Islands, and parts of the Middle East and North Africa, as well as members or descendants of federally or state-recognized tribes. In addition, the legislation authorizes the Office of Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises to designate other groups as socially disadvantaged through future rulemaking.
White men who do not identify as sexual deviants — i.e., the people who created Washington State along with the rest of the USA — need not apply for cherished “disadvantaged” status. Every totalitarian ideology requires a group to scapegoat and hate; liberalism is no exception.
