Ellen Pao’s Anti-Male Hiring Policy Shows The Destructiveness Of Egalitarianism

Fresh off of attempting to rip off her former employer with a frivolous sexual discrimination lawsuit, Reddit CEO Ellen Pao has done it again. Pao made waves last week when she announced that Reddit would no longer allow potential hires to negotiate their salaries, because salary negotiations unfairly privilege men over women:

‘If you want more equity, we’ll let you swap a little bit of your cash salary for equity, but we aren’t going to reward people who are better negotiators with more compensation,’ Pao said. ‘We ask people what they think about diversity, and we did weed people out because of that.’

You read that correctly: Pao is deliberately handicapping men in order to give women a boost. Because men are better at negotiating their salaries than women—and because studies purportedly show that women who attempt to haggle over their salaries are perceived more negatively—she’s taken the option off the table entirely. If one side can’t play the game as well, no one gets to play at all.

Ellen Pao’s lunatic policy will not only hurt Reddit in the long run by driving away highly-skilled job applicants, but it also shows how corrosive egalitarianism is to American society. A culture that denies basic differences in ability and skill will inevitably fall to the lowest common denominator. In particular, a society that forces men and women to deny their own inherent differences is one that will punish masculine creativity and success.

Life Imitates Art

Reddit’s new hiring policy is so cuckoo that it reads like something out of a dystopian novel. Indeed, there is a work of fiction that takes the thinking of people like Ellen Pao to its logical conclusion: Kurt Vonnegut’s 1961 short story “Harrison Bergeron.”

Vonnegut’s story is set in a 1984-esque future in which the Constitution has been amended to ensure that Americans are equal in every way possible. To enforce this, the Handicapper General metes out punishments to those who stand above the pack in some fashion. For example, intelligent people are forced to wear radios inside their ears to keep them from being able to think properly, while beautiful people are required to wear masks:

The year was 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren’t only equal before God and the law. They were equal every which way. Nobody was smarter than anybody else. Nobody was better looking than anybody else. Nobody was stronger or quicker than anybody else. All this equality was due to the 211th, 212th, and 213th Amendments to the Constitution, and to the unceasing vigilance of agents of the United States Handicapper General.

The story concerns its titular protagonist, an exceptionally strong, intelligent, and handsome young man who is snatched away from his parents and forced to undergo extreme handicapping. Bergeron escapes from prison and attempts to overthrow the government, but is stopped when the Handicapper General, Diana Moon Glampers, kills him with a shotgun.

While not Vonnegut’s original intention, “Harrison Bergeron” serves as a cautionary tale about the endpoint of feminist and leftist thinking. Human beings are inherently unequal: some of us are better-looking, some smarter, some stronger. No amount of legislation or social engineering can overcome the basic differences that are part of our genetic makeup.

May The Better He, She, Or It Win

Ellen Pao’s hiring policy—and the ecstatic response it’s gotten from female typists—also lays waste to a popular feminist claim: that “equality” for women won’t hurt men in any way.

For years, feminists have attempted to swat down opposition to their ideas by claiming that “gender equality” (read: special privileges for women) is not a zero-sum game. In other words, implementing policies designed to level the playing field between men and women will benefit everyone. But as Reddit’s new policy shows, modern feminism is explicitly about kneecapping men so that women can take a larger share of the pie.

The same patterns can be seen in every other sphere that is embracing radical gender equality. For example, in the military, women have to be held to less rigorous physical fitness standards than men just to even qualify. The only way to get two inherently unequal groups on the same footing is to either cripple the superior group (as Reddit is doing) or to enforce a separate, laxer set of standards on the inferior group (as the military is doing).

Enforcing equality to this extreme will lead to dropping standards across the board. As mentioned above, Reddit’s insane hiring policy will result in qualified job applicants avoiding the company because they know that they won’t be able to get paid what they’re worth. While banning salary negotiation may make Reddit’s women employees feel better about themselves, it will encourage mediocre hires and hurt the company’s performance in the long haul.

Ultimately, the only fair way for a society to function—contra the claims of the left—is to oppose egalitarianism. While all people should have equality of opportunity, enforcing perfect equality will simply lead to decay and mediocrity.

For all the praise she’s getting from the left, Ellen Pao’s idiocy could very well drive Reddit into the ground.

  1. Feminists are without, leading the destruction of our society. They have oblitarated everything such as the nuclear family, the family courts, the mainstream media, and now employment.
    Feminism has helped contribute greatly, towards the modern generation of men from not being able to support themselves and their families. With the help of big
    government, the feminists have essentially made applying for work, a huge
    obstacle and nightmare for men in the West. Thanks to corrupt HR departments
    and enforced quotas, more men are now being replaced by more females in the
    workplace. This without a doubt, is a sign of the decline which we are
    witnessing in society, where men who were once the traditional breadwinners,
    are now turning into trophy husbands and dependants.
    Where are we going in this world? Further down the toilet. More men today are
    turning into complete losers, thanks to being raised by single mothers and
    being told by society that women are victims, and men are villains. I honestly
    do not believe, that today’s man will have the strength to overcome the
    enormous destruction that is being committed by the feminist movement, because
    even though there is a small fraction of men such as ROK readers, who are
    fighting back, there unfortunately, are still too many henpecked simps,
    manginas, white knights, captain save a hoes, who have been brainwashed and
    indoctrinated to believe that the feminisation of society and men, is right for
    our world.
    Pathetic. Which is why it is imperative to understand, that men need to continue
    to ensure that masculinity is not to be destroyed, but to be protected and
    preserved at all costs.
    So to feminism:

    1. This is our World War, this is where we show our strength! Not just against the feminism, but against all the nihilism caused by cultural marxism and technoscience. We need a complete cultural revolution, by looking at the great people of the past can we achieve a decent future.

      1. This is one of the conundrums I have. Most of us anymore adopt an MGTOW stance, turn off and drop out. I find myself doing that regardless, because who wants to go around getting kicked in the nutts every day if they can choose not to. I also feel that as a man, as an alpha, we bear a certain responsibility to set things straight and keep the world on the right track. So I fight some and speak up, and of course as a public business owner it’s cost me severely. But what’s the alternative… watch the world go to shit around you?

        1. I’m out. I do my own thing in my own way on my own time.
          I am also, however, keeping my eyes open. Build yourself up, become what women want, and when you turn away the obese, the feminists, and the otherwise unacceptable, let them know why. At the same time, allow for the possibility of a unicorn falling into your lap. But be very thorough in making sure she is what she pretends to be.

        2. Sometimes you don’t have any other alternative than to let the machine collapse, then rebuild from the ashes…

        3. My feeling is America is too large to foment change. And no way will any secession or anything of the like be allowed. So I basically let it go to shit because I realize I’m powerless to prevent it. I do plan on leaving at some point and I would actively speak out and fight for men and traditional values in my new locale.
          Harry Browne talked about this in How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World as one of the “traps” you can fall into–trying to waste time on others instead of ones self.

        4. I think your wisdom is solid and I think you’re on to something. I’m reminded of one of the final scenes in No Country for Old Men, where the retired sheriff talks about thinking you can change the world = hubris… ’cause none of us is that special. Logically I believe that. I’m a patriot as much as anything… so it’s hard to watch the country I love descend into shit. But everything in life is cyclical right. The only given about a great society… is that it will eventually fall.

    2. Marriages used to be better for both males and females, before feminism ruined the complementary roles that men and women should play.
      It scares me that there are more women in the workplace, because women spend more time creating needless drama rather than getting any work done.

  2. In a free market, only companies that produce more desirable products will thrive. We are coming to a crossroads; will we as a society choose this existing free market model, or will we adapt a new model? Will the companies that follow these ridiculous “equality” quotas and ideals be artificially propped up and applauded for their “fairness”?
    This article examines this on a micro scale. I’m worried this will be seen more frequently on a macro scale.

    1. I have, sitting here on my desk, a Soviet Russian can punch. It’s design is mechanically superior to the basic western punch, although I assume that is to make up for the fact that the material is inferior.
      But what is interesting about it is that it doesn’t punch cans for shit. If it did the job any worse it wouldn’t be a can punch at all, but people bought and used them, because no one could simply copy a western punch and advertise “Ours actually punches cans.” No, it had to be lauded as a perfect creation of the perfect society.
      I was in Prague when the very first soda machine was installed. It sat alone in a windowless block room and I had to stand in line for half an hour to take my turn to drop in a coin and watch the cup drop and fill with this strange yellow-green fluid. Which tasted like artificially lemon-lime flavored vomit.
      So the solution to the can punch problem was to shrug your shoulders and think “Well, the juice isn’t worth the squeeze anyway and there’s nothing anybody can do about it.”

    2. A very good point. This frequently happens already when it comes to handing out government contracts. One such instance I know of is in the construction industry. A specific amount of the total contracts worth must be delegated to minority/women owned subcontractors. I believe it is on the order of 40%.

    3. It’s amazing (head shaking in ‘what the fuck’ fashion amazing) the lack of vision as demonstrated by Ms Pao. The lack of perception in understanding that nature by its very nature is not socialist. Something has to give eventually the more the prevailing culture tries to force feed reality through this skewed narrative.

        1. Food for thought i suppose. But I’ll clarify my statement in the context of nature not being socialist in terms of achievement & performance metrics for its organisms.

  3. Even though it’s a shitty feminist comeback, I genuinely hope she gets hit by a train.

  4. Egalitarianism always has been and always will be a bunch of hypocritical BS. Anyone who claims to believe in equality are hypocrites and lairs and only do so selective when it suites their own interest.

  5. Why doesn’t she start her own feminist VC firm funding only female entrepreneurs? Oh yeah… that’s right… that would eliminate most of the good companies to fund.

    1. A lot easier to parasite co-opt than to create from scratch. Fucking over man made structures gives the femmies the only tingles they care about…

  6. ” because salary negotiations unfairly privilege men over women”
    Please explain this one? Anyone can negotiate, so is she saying that men are better at negotiating? How can this be if we are all ‘EQUAL?!’

    1. Same reason that women overwhelmingly prefer slot machines over other types of gambling. Feminists would rather accept the worst possible odds from the house in the name of fairness, than risk losing in a poker game against men.

      1. They prefer slot machines because they’re lazy and then they don’t have to think. Good poker takes effort.

    2. While any adult can learn to negotiate, men generally fare a lot better at negotiating (statistics bear this out). This actually makes perfect sense when you stop and think about how women are raised in the developed world. Women are *catered* to. What they want, they often just get without a fight. This teaches them nothing about how to deal with someone who has what you want, but needs to see value from you in order to give it to you. Women are often the sex that males finding themselves negotiating with, rather than the opposite. As a result of that upbringing or their natural solipsism (or both), women spend absolutely zero time thinking about what other people around them perhaps want in exchange for what they have to offer. In short, women are shitty negotiators.
      Hilariously, this failure in women actually becomes the source of the now cliche joke about how men “are afraid of commitment”. It’s not that men are afraid of commitment, ladies, it’s that you have done absolutely nothing to demonstrate your future wife-value to the man you are after. For the first time in your life, you have to demonstrate future value to someone instead of just expecting to get what you want.

      1. So true! Men are NOT “afraid of commitment” — we have realized that commitment has nothing whatsoever to offer us.
        Modern women seem to have the ridiculous attitude that they are “owed” or “have a right” to a man’s commitment, no matter what they have to offer — be it little or nothing — in return.

      2. wow… up vote 100 times.
        Its true. All women have to do is show up and they expect to get what they want. Otherwise… men are being “unfair”…

      3. They have all become narcissists that deserve special treatment for no reason at all. The good thing is that narcissists always have to face reality some day. With women, it smacks them in the face around the ages of 25-30. They realize they are nothing more than cum dumpsters when their physical attractiveness no longer gets them anything. Now they must “settle” with a guy who is really a better person and has a higher SMV than her.

        1. Then the situation changes to where the guy has to “settle” for her — IF he is willing to.
          And these used-up women are finding that more men are NOT willing to settle for what is ultimately a bad bargain.

      4. end this shit. if you have nothing to trade, you can’t trade for more. that’s it. that’s it. that’s all there is! what. the. fuck. though still concluding in the right direction, people are still unconsciously accepting part of the twisted fabrication craziness word vomit.
        how can so many get the first part right, yet bring into their conclusion irrelevant parroting of men negotiate better negotiators women negotiate shitty negotiating? what is negotiation? what does it mean? have people ever even done it today? fuck. it’s becoming a magical word. go back to the definition, the action itself, and leave the cruft behind.
        negotiation, in the general setting of work for dollars, at the societal-level scale we’re talking about, has nothing to do with men nor women nor magical “negotiation” talent bananas. it’s just trading work for dollars. that’s it. that’s it. that’s all there is here. work, for dollars, so companies can make more dollars, so companies can trade for more work, so companies can make more dollars. this work-for-money for more work-for-money cycle, if found to not be had upon inspection, results rightfully in no more dollars. period. skill need not apply, negotiation magic-talent need not apply, sex need not apply. why bring any thing else into it? all other conflations are irrelevant; stop fucking repeating them.
        any person, regardless of sex, who’s work is undeserving for dollars given, is repeatedly lying and thieving – not trading – and thus can’t “negotiate”, i.e. can’t reevaluate trade history for more dollars. more thieving for more dollars, while the company looses? not even mangina monkeys accept -that-, which is why the undeserving get monies and advance in all channels -outside- of negotiation. the thieves know their thieving, in fact, all know this upon inspection, because net money loss can still be felt (even with all the lying liars’ lies). that’s it. that’s it. that’s all there is. before magical talent skillz menz womenzes can even come in to play, worth has to be present. if there isn’t, and moreover, there is a history of net negative loss trade, any re-evaluation of trade for dollars will result in this revelation, and no more dollars will be given. thus negotiation fails, because it can’t even begin, because there’s nothing fucking there in the first place. fuck the rest.
        the end. shitty negotiation has nothing to do with it. if there is nothing, then there is nothing, period. shit need not apply. think about it: all will be shitty -anything- if the “if” doesn’t exist in the first place, by way of modus tollens. major presumption/premise invalid, no minor chain of premise consequences. if no if, then stop there, don’t bring up the endless list of thens, all are already proven false, along -with- the whole fucking fanatical planet-crazy-world-view-setting where negotiation can even come in to play. as if there was anything to negotiate in the first place?! end this shit; stop the propagation completely, don’t accept even a single piece. shitty need not apply, the end.
        i swear my mind feels like it’s regressing.

  7. “For all the praise she’s getting from the left, Ellen Pao’s idiocy could very well drive Reddit into the ground.”
    I’m okay with this.

    1. And when it does dive into the ground, they’ll blame it on the “patriarchic” society and never once consider that perhaps they lack the talent in their staff to compete.

  8. I wish the comments in the article of the Guardian are not indicative of the state of young men in the West but they sounded so faggy, they couldn’t have thrown themselves under the bus quicker, to satisfy the “sacred” females in their “quest” for equality. A few voices of reason here and there (some of them erased by the moderator due to “violation of the comment section rules”) and nothing else. It’s incredible how such an emasculating doctrine could be internalized by its intended victims…

    1. Reading the Guardian comments (well most of them) is a truly depressing and downright scary thing to do.

    2. The Guardian moderates heavily like all leftist outlets
      I’ve had like 4 accounts banned there

  9. I’m pretty sure reddit was invented by men. Why would these guys hand over their cash cow to a batshit crazy feminist who secretly hope to drive the whole thing into the ground anyway ? When it happens she will just blame it on the patriarchy and the lack of diversity, then move on to the next host.

    1. Reddit has become one of the “mature” companies that is no longer innovative, and trying to eek out a profit with the continual gradual improvement process.

        1. I don’t know all the details but the government was after him for some reason. Aaron Schwartz was the founder.

        2. Oh shit, yeah theres a good documentary out there about him. Basically the government was blowing shit out of proportion and threatening to ruin his life for some pranks he did in college and it drove him to commit suicide.

        3. Despite his progressive politics about things like healthcare, there were lots of reasons why various “powers that be” would want this guy “removed.”
          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz
          In 2008, Swartz founded Watchdog.net, “the good government site with teeth,” to aggregate and visualize data about politicians.[35][36] In the same year, he wrote a widely circulated Guerilla Open Access Manifesto;[37][38][39][40] (see #Open Access below for details).
          […]
          During academic year 2010–11, Swartz conducted research studies on political corruption as a Lab Fellow in Harvard University’s Edmond J. Safra Research Lab on Institutional Corruption.
          Tor2web
          For more details on this topic, see Tor2web.
          In 2008,[55] Swartz worked with Virgil Griffith to design and implement Tor2web, an HTTP proxy for Tor hidden services. The proxy was designed to provide easy access to Tor from a basic web browser.
          […]
          Swartz was instrumental in the campaign to prevent passage of the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), which sought to combat Internet copyright violations but was
          criticized on the basis that it would have made it easier for the U.S. government to shut down web sites accused of violating copyright and would have placed intolerable burdens on Internet providers.[48] Following the defeat of the bill, Swartz was the keynote speaker at the F2C:Freedom to Connect 2012 event in Washington, D.C., on May 21, 2012.
          […]
          DeadDrop
          For more details on this topic, see SecureDrop.
          In 2011–2012, Swartz and Kevin Poulsen designed and implemented DeadDrop,a system that allows anonymous informants to send electronic documents without fear of disclosure. In May 2013, the first instance of the software was launched by The New Yorker under the name Strongbox.[70][71][72] The Freedom of the Press Foundation has since taken over development of the software, which has been renamed SecureDrop.[73]
          JSTOR
          According to state and federal authorities, Swartz used JSTOR, a digital repository,[74] to download a large number[ii] of academic journal articles through MIT’s computer network over the course of a few weeks in late 2010 and early 2011. At the time, Swartz was a research fellow at Harvard University, which provided him with a JSTOR account.[14] Visitors to MIT’s “open campus” were authorized to access JSTOR through its network.[75]
          The authorities said Swartz downloaded the documents through a laptop connected to a networking switch in a controlled-access wiring closet at MIT.[13][14][76][77][78] The door to the closet was kept unlocked, according to press reports.[75][79][80]
          Arrest and prosecution
          On the night of January 6, 2011, Swartz was arrested near the Harvard campus by MIT police and a U.S. Secret Service agent. He was arraigned in Cambridge District Court on two state charges of breaking and entering with intent to commit a felony.[12][13][78][81][82]
          On July 11, 2011, Swartz was indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of wire fraud, computer fraud, unlawfully obtaining information from a protected computer, and recklessly damaging a protected computer.[14][83]
          […]
          The federal prosecution involved what was characterized by numerous critics such as former Nixon White House counsel John Dean as an “overcharging” 13-count indictment and “overzealous” prosecution for alleged computer crimes, brought by the U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Carmen Ortiz. Facing potential incarceration for alleged criminal offenses for which the victims, M.I.T. and JSTOR, declined to pursue civil litigation, Swartz [allegedly] committed suicide on January 11, 2013.

      1. “Yes. Reddit’s founder killed himself about 3 years ago.”
        Lets put it this way, he was found hung to death in an apparent suicide. Apparent suicides don’t rule out a person being “suicided” by persons or entities that arrange for the murder to look like a suicide.

    2. Right, someone who cares about diversity should not have been hired in the first place

    3. Yeah, exactly my thoughts earlier. See ebay, HP, etc. Men, typically engineers, built it, then turned it over to woman to run into the ground. But they don’t care because in our cash out capitalistic system, the creators get tens or hundreds of millions.

  10. Ellen Pao’s lunatic policy will not only hurt Reddit in the long run by driving away highly-skilled job applicants

    Good. Let Reddit suffer. The free market economy will correct her mistake for her.

    1. Apparently reddit is one of the “most sexist places on the internet”
      Which really means the people at reddit could do much better – Redditers should come to the chans and so we can grow and expedite their anti-feminism

      1. i read that as “sexiest places on the internet” which i’m pretty sure is not true.

  11. “but we aren’t going to reward people who are better negotiators with more compensation”
    lol why the fuck not? if someone’s a better negotiator, it’s probably because they’re more intelligent. why would you not want that person working for you, vs some dumbass who is going to take whatever you’d give without second thought?

    1. Because if they are more intelligent, then they are probably a man, and she is trying to hire more women.
      And are you stupid. Do you not realize making CEO, is survival of the un-fittest. If you are a female ceo, who is underqualified, you can’t be surrounded by males who know more about computers and reddit and internet than you do. Why?
      1. Far too easy for them to just leave and start a competitor firm
      2. Gives the board of directors a very good reason to fire the ceo and replace them with someone below them more competent at less the cost. You see once you are CEO, if you are only a 7/10 on the intelligent scale, well then you got to fire everyone over a 7/10, because if they are smarter than you, THEY WILL take your job period. You want the CFO, to be a 5/10 dumbass, because if they fire you, then the idiot is in charge and that is scary.

  12. Who cares, women destroy shit, it is their nature. All this means is the men who run this organization will slowly abandon reddit for new startups where they will form all male teams that challenge reddit and sooner or later you have an all male startup worth $100 million dollars then sells for a few billions with no female employees or female directors. The feminist will cry discrimination again, and there will be no women in senior roles again for the same reason that women are lazy and dislike work but love titles.
    Most women have no interest in business, they just like the idea of dressing up in a suit and carrying a suitcase. Women have milds on par with children, they are just plain stupid and infantile really.
    For men complaining is useless, no one cares about our problems. We start our own businesses and for god sakes don’t hire a woman beyond secretary and then her only job should be fucking you and organizing your files. And don’t hire a cunt in hr, maybe a few sales cunts but thats it, and only if they are fucking you.

      1. What I find comical about this, is that, as noted by many of the other comments, we’ve had to create a non-merit environment in order for women to become these strong and powerful moguls. But, doesn’t that defeat the whole purpose? I mean, on one hand this ego masturbation is so fucking obvious but then on the other we can’t and shouldn’t care about “powerful women” because we’re all the same and differences in ability are just some mere construct. Not to mention that women aren’t placed for their ability so much as they’re just placed for being women.

        1. Precisely. The few black talented people I know despise affirmative action because everyone assumes that is how they got where they are today. So it makes their successes almost worthless (although it does give them power and money, but no personal fulfillment).

        2. A doctor friend said that he would never go to a minority doctor (except Asians) because they get into med school with lower standards due to affirmative action. So now, I just assume all minority doctors got a leg up due to affirmative action.

        3. articles like these prove the word “racist” is pretty much meaningless these days…

    1. Definitely for sales – cute girls in sales positions can manipulate Betatards into hemorrhaging money like crazy to your benefit, and for this you should be ruthless and remorseless. We all know how attractive women have a ridiculously unfair advantage in sales and tipping-oriented positions, so you should be completely Machiavellian for this angle.

      1. But recall pussy ain’t shit, so make sure you never promote them but promise to and promote a man, even if he is a worse performer over them. On top of that make sure you under pay the cunt for being a cunt.

    2. Definitely hire a few for sales positions with the rampant white knighting/beta behavior that most American men display.

    3. the mistake that should not be repeated is pitying worthless equalists and hiring them – most men are far too compassionate towards social justice vermin

  13. yeah, it’s the same thing they’ve been doing since the 90s, like with the fire department.
    besides the obvious harm done to the society, wtf do we care?
    if reddit wants to employ people who do not possess good negotiating skills, let them be (a good negotiator would go elsewhere for more salary, unless he/she is a masochist or an ..stop me from laughing.. idealist)
    as for the righteous ceo.. she just wants to be on the headlines.
    what do women crave the most?
    dyke attention!

    1. Good luck recruiting and retaining a strong sales force, when you don’t reward negotiating.

  14. Well let her drive Reddit to the ground then. A similar situation happened before:
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1168182/Catfights-handbags-tears-toilets-When-producer-launched-women-TV-company-thought-shed-kissed-goodbye-conflict-.html
    “…And while I stand by my initial reason for excluding male employees – because they have an easy ride in TV – if I were to do it again, I’d definitely employ men. In fact, I’d probably employ only men.”
    The more this happens, the more people will realise these femishits are… well, full of shit.

    1. Just read that link. I am a nurse and therefore know well about backstabbing women. I was terminated due to a witch hunt in 2010 and quit another job in 2013 because of toxic female bullshit.

        1. No. It’s even worse when you are a woman who won’t knuckle under to their bullshit.

      1. Were filipina nurses involved by any chance? I have a former white/latina gf who is a nurse in a hospital and cannot stand working with them and describes them as tribal and untrustworthy.

        1. No it was not, although the filipinas are tribal I never had a problem with them. It was all white women and the main screwer had the title of “Human Rights Specialist”. At the time of my persecution, I even remarked to a guy friend how it was all women and not a man in sight.

    2. That was wonderful to read. There we have the typical femitard thinking that men are evil and that she lives in “patriarchy” that had this dream of a men-free “paradise” to get rid of all the “opression”… only to fail miserably because of the most frivolous bullshit that those ” smart, intelligent, career-oriented women ” discussed about. Good. She didn’t need to go through all those monetary losses if she didn’t have her head so far up into her ass, but some people can only learn it the hard way. Good, at least she admits it in the end, and her hamster miraculously stopped spinning for good. I hope Reddit goes through the same process.

      1. “. She didn’t need to go through all those monetary losses if she didn’t have her head so far up into her ass, but some people can only learn it the hard way. Good, at least she admits it in the end, and her hamster miraculously stopped spinning for good. I hope Reddit goes through the same process.”
        Sadly, because this company has only split-tails, this cunt will probably blame it’s failure on sexism and the oppressive patriarchy and demand the fucking government bail their broke asses out. And the fucking government under someone like Hillary Clinton will probably oblige with our tax dollars.

    3. I completely agree. Let feminists have their way for a little while. When their businesses go to hell they will run to men to save them. When their marriages to betas run dry they will run to alphas to patriarch them. When their lives become disorganized and chaotic they will beg men to teach them how to behave.
      We just have to be patient.

      1. I sincerely doubt that. What women have in limitless supply is an overabundance of arrogance, pride, and hubris. They would rather have society collapse than EVER, EVER, EVER admit that they were wrong.

        1. Yes. Absolutely correct. They will never admit they were wrong or that it was their fault. They will throw out the classic ‘I was just following orders’.

        2. Or their ever-popular favorite of blaming some man, or group of men, or all men.

  15. I must be a bit old fashion. I thought everyone being equal was called Communism. And we all know how that turned out.

    1. No matter how many times Socialism/Communism is tried and fails, there is ALWAYS another SJW idiot who wants to do that same mistake over again because “it just wasn’t done right!”

  16. Pretty soon (by about 2022) discriminating on ability will be a crime.
    Good luck getting your heart surgery off the guy or gal who failed medical school and whose nursing a meth comedown

  17. Turns out discrimination is okay. But only when they get to discriminate.
    No freedom, just take, take, take.

  18. Look at the pace of progress in technology. Robots and smart machines are on the verge of replacing much of the workforce and transhumanist nightmare scenarios are becoming possible. The idea that America is some kind of egalitarian cesspool that is experiencing regression doesn’t make sense. If anything progress needs to slow down.
    The real problem is the dispossession and replacement of white Americans. Not some women having unfair advantages at work.

    1. And if those fancy new motor car manufacturers take off then I, as a horse whip salesman, will also suffer

    2. ‘The real problem is the dispossession and replacement of white Americans.’
      This part is correct

    3. We are the minority, & we do not clamor for change like other groups have in the past. Therefore, we deserve our current place. The squeaky wheel gets the grease…

      1. If we make our own place, those damn feminists WILL find a way to invade it, then destroy it. Look what’s happening to the NFL locker rooms with a female reporter inside interviewing players with just a towel around their waist.

    4. I think there is technological innovation and there is social engineering – two very distinct things. To think of those two as one of the same is false. If technology is advancing to a point that robots will be doing most of the jobs, then why even bother with much of the progressive agenda? What’s the point of making sure workplace are diverse or women have a satisfactory career status, when quite soon, most careers will be automated. Minus the transhumanist neomania and insanity, this is a great thing its literally George Jetson at this desk kicked back with one button to push all day and Rudy doing everything for him. The danger is conflating technology with social justice bullshit which is leading to the misallocation of technology. You see, its not that technological progress should slow down as much as we should be, more than ever, very careful on its applications i.e. the information age is great but look at how the advent of big centralized government has created a nanny surveillance state.

    5. You mindset is one of the reasons behind the current collapse of the West. Displacement of God and Wisdom in favour of women. By the way as someone else said technological advancements and social engineering are not same. If anything technology would be more advanced however not all avenues of research are allowed and thanks to centralization and a desire for a totalitarian regime, no government is interested in space exploration (a long term endeavour).

  19. We ask people what they think about diversity, and we did weed people out because of that.
    Way to go. That’s quite an accomplishment. Having the proper view of diversity is key to being a successful employee. All the great companies were built by people who believed having the sexes and races in the proper proportions was the foundation of a successful enterprise.

    1. Not to beat a worn drum, but how is this type of ideological “weeding out” different from Mao’s cultural revolution or Hitler’s volkish reforms?

      1. I need to learn more about this.
        A Chinese friend of mine told me that Mao basically went through the country and killed off all the intellectuals and professionals. Even got children to rat on and kill their own teachers.
        And according to him, when they were all gone, there was no one left to really get the country back on it’s feet. The population was no longer sprinkled with visionaries and innovators, and everyone adopted the new regime.

        1. Sadly, in the next purge, the teachers will rat out the children polluted with a father’s common sense

        2. It is a very worthwhile thing to understand and read up on. Also read up on the Holodomer which is perhaps the worst purge of all time and is largely ignored and glossed over by the modern extreme left.

        3. True, Mao had two or three purge cycles
          Mao kept running purge cycles every 5 to 10 years, because he was always afraid that someone or some group, even within his closest circle of supporters, could turn on him, or rise over him in power. To prevent this from happening, he kept purging people constantly throughout his time.
          It is one of the big problems that China still has. Even after 25 years of opening up, the ‘management cadre’ that we take for granted in the United States, still has not recovered and is just not there.
          From my dealing with people from China, virtually every single person that I know or people that I know through people I know, that could leave China, did. And they take everything out of China they can, family, relatives, money. Only one person I know of over 100+ people ever went back, and that is because she married an investment banker in Beijing, so at the first sign of trouble they would be able to leave since her mother is now a US Citizen.
          Mao was a real MF. Among the stories showing how much he cared are:
          1: During the revolution, his army and him traveled through one of the proviences were one of his sons was, and never made any attempt to protect the kid.
          2: Kept his communist forces out of the fighting, as much as possible, in China during WWII, in order to be ready to take on the Nationalists after the war; also used PR to spread the lie that they were doing the majority of the fighting against the Japanese occupy forces. Stalin/Soviets/Comintern only got China into the war because while Mao was ignoring directives from Moscow to enter the war, to make sure Japan could not move against the Soviet Far East, Stalin ordered one of the Communist lower level commanders to provoke an incident, that started the China/Japan war at full scale. (It is also fitting as poetic justice, that in later years that Mao, who only was able to rise to power because of support from Moscow and Stalin, turned on them in later years when he didn’t need them anymore.)
          3: When discussing plans for an expected nuclear war with the West, estimates that China would lose about 1/3 of the population (about 200 million out of 600 million people at the time) and remarked that would be ‘acceptable loses’ as long as he was one of the remaining people and still in power.

        4. I don’t think such overt violence against citizens could happen in the West. Maybe I’m wrong but I feel like the people here have a bit more of an inclination to fight back.
          I think what we’re seeing in the West is a gradual gradual shift in legislation towards totalitarianism, but in a Brave New World kind of sense rather than overt fear of the government. Instead, we’re trying to convince people to love and depend on the government.
          All they really have to worry about is controlling the men… History seems to show that women don’t give a shit about justice or freedom so long as someone is footing the bill.
          Thanks for the comment, I’ll definitely have to look further into this.

        5. It seems that way, but it didn’t really happen that way in Germany or France in the 30s and 40s. And in what way have North Americans stood up or rebelled against anything that has been done so far? The only issue I can think of that had any sort of citizen reprisal was the guy out west who didn’t pay his cattle taxes.
          But overall I’d say there is the possibility of fighting back but almost zero evidence that it will happen.

        6. interesting. I’ve always been interested in Asian history. Would you suggest any books by chance?

    2. Because feeling good and equality of outcome is far more important than actual ability to perform at a job.
      Yeah, that’ll be a successful company.

  20. Reddit would be cool if the commenting was free and open, but I can read anything there and predict all of the following comments and group think. Lame.

  21. I see this as the best thing to happen to the red-pill momevement. Ellen Pao will take her equalist theory and put it into practice. The possible results:
    Everyone gets paid the same, but men are paid less than they deserve. Men leave, all women workplace, cue the clusterfuck.
    Everyone gets paid the same, but women are overpaid to retain men. Men get fed up dealing with entitled women, men leave, all women workplace who are overpaid, cue the clusterfuck.
    Good luck with that, Ellen.

    1. Amazing you can see this and an Ivy- educated woman cannot. I think foresight might be a gift bestowed exclusively on men.
      I am starting to think harvard degrees are losing their luster; I think recent grads should be forced to wear dunces caps in public just so I know who Im dealing with….

      1. I think the problem is that they do not see much difference.
        I think they believe not having negotiating skills is ‘not that big of a deal’; until they start to lose business and customers.
        Part of the reason for this is that many of these people, who think this way, may have come into their work and careers as to who they knew, or some kind of societal hiring for a quota, in short, hired for everything except for their merit to do the job.

    2. I think the problem is worse than that
      Anyone with any negotiation skills (men or women), will not be allowed to use them to get a higher salary and end up working elsewhere; so Reddit will end up with an entire company filled with people who are not as good negotiating as their competitors.
      While that may work ok within their own closed environment, I expect within a few years it will be a disaster as they try to compete for customers with other companies in the marketplace.
      I also find that it ‘boggles my mind’ that a company would purposely set out to hire people who as good as other people at negotiating. What next, hire poor web designers and bad programmers?
      I can see Reddit’s new corporate moto and groupthink, “We hire the worst but pay the best”!

      1. Productivity is going to take a dump, because now there is little incentive to argue your case for a a raise. Raises don’t just get handed out because men run short cons on management and are snookering them into giving out raises, you back up your case when it’s raise time with your concrete results from the year in review. This is the way it’s been done at any company I’ve been at, I work in IT project delivery for the financial services sector.

        1. Yup. If I was a guy who typically puts in more time or has an talent for getting better production, I’d just go in and do minimal. What’s the incentive anymore? If you can’t negotiate or demonstrate you’re worth of raise, then give ’em what their utopian equal pay is worth — mediocrity

        2. “What’s the incentive anymore?”
          The funny thing is that it is the lack of “incentive” which is the major reason that men are saying “no” to marriage and commitment and Going Their Own Way instead.
          Of course, women can’t/wont see that as the reason that they are ending up as spinster cat-herders, because the media, the educational system, and the legal system has been blowing smoke up their a**es for so long, that they now think that they pee rosewater and sh*t marble.

    3. even just getting paid the same alone would end in clusterfuck

  22. A lot of progressives Ive talked to don’t even understand the message that Harrison Bergeron is trying to convey. They actually believe the story is about some utopian future where everyone is finally equal. These people are so far removed from reality they have no qualms about limiting someones abilities against their will and forcibly relegating them to a life of mediocrity. Also fuck Reddit, they deserve everything they get.

    1. The common thread is that “progressives” always want to be the ‘big shots’ of the “New Order”.

  23. I think I’ve visited Reddit once ever. Nothing impressive, entertaining, or didactic to be had. Just seemed like a wasteland of internet pseudo-intellectualism like Twitter. And keyboard jockeys and hashtag heroes are simply the bane of our existence now.
    Now I sure as shit won’t bless them with any clicks. It is no loss whatsoever to me.
    Is there any competitor site I can visit and click on every ad possible just to be a dick that any of you are aware of?

  24. Enforced equality of outcome destroys all self knowledge. Unless you are permitted to test your own limits, you will never know them. You might as well be a slave at that point.

    Ellen Pao’s hiring policy—and the ecstatic response it’s gotten fromfemale typists—also lays waste to a popular feminist claim: that “equality” for women won’t hurt men in any way.

    In truth, I don’t think her hiring policy will hurt a single man. I believe that any man who is worth greater pay than she will allow them to negotiate for just won’t work for Reddit. She’s only hurting herself and her own company. She’s foolishly thinking her idealism will bring her success. Reddit’s decline is inevitable now, pass the popcorn.

  25. Ellen Pao’s rationalization for this is that women don’t negotiate as well as men. Is Ellen going to penalize women for being more likely to have a college education than men? Of course not, she’s only interested in penalizing men to create “equality,” she has no interested in penalizing women. So much for “equality,” which is really just code-word here for “anti-male.”

  26. You could postulate “equality” in a radically different way as a transhumanist project: Set a standard of human enhancement currently beyond everyone’s reach, then work to uplift humanity to that level so that we all look like gods and have physically feasible abilities which verge on superpowers.
    I’ve joked with transhumanists that if they get their way, what will the comic book writers have left to do? Will they have to publish comics about the adventures of “Ordinary Man” or something?
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxfzm9dfqBw

      1. The thing to remember is that women DON’T want equality of OPPORTUNITY, they want equality of OUTCOMES. That way, they can have the same pay as a man without having to do the same amount of work.

      2. Let’s put it this way. “All men are created equal” is not a policy statement, it is merely and expository explanation.
        Basing policy upon the preamble is stupid as fuck, and always has been. Obviously all men are NOT created equal, however, as a reason to avoid a hereditary monarchy it was workable.
        SCOTUS is a retarded joke.

    1. And yet they so provably don’t. Just by being born in a wealthy first world nation, a fat dark skinned person has far more opportunity than a white kid born in the third world.

      1. No joke. and what’s with this ‘minority’ shit? White christians are like… less than 1/50th of the world’s population. negroes outnumber whites 3 to one.

    1. Haha.. unicorn on the van–nice touch!
      Is this Korean or Japanese?
      Funny that the anti-individualist societies of the east are now poking fun at the west for our problems with too much individualism

  27. Set salaries is just like government and union jobs. We all know what POSs they are.

  28. Always has to be the fat and/or ugly ones… Always has to be the fat and/or ugly ones…
    Because the attractive ones have nothing to overcompensate for!

  29. I don’t give 2 fucks about Reddit and after seeing this debacle, I will laugh gleefully with joy when the company sinks like a rock thrown into the ocean.

  30. Just fire every man at this point. I would be willing to go along with this if unemployment was extended to 5 yrs from termination date and pegged to cost of living differences around the country.Totally bum around on 25k a yr. It would allllllll collapse by then. Corps would be dying to him men back. Teach em a lesson.

    1. Just don’t go out of the country while collecting unemployment.
      Most state unemployment agencies now have a tie in with DHS to tell them when people are out of the country, so they can’t collect unemployment for the weeks they were not available to work.
      Of course, with the United States being so large, and areas like St. Croix, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Florida and such being part of the USA, you can still go on a good extended vacation at any time of the year with no problems.

      1. Fascinating. what does collecting UE have to do with homeland security?? Hmmmmm…..

        1. The thinking is that if you were out of the country those weeks, then you were ‘not available for work’; which is usually a question asked by the unemployment office. If you are not available to work, then the thinking is that you should not collect for that week.
          Some people use unemployment as an opportunity to be able to travel somewhere for more than a week or two, since at most jobs it would not be allowed to take off more than two weeks at a time, and many places I can see people would have trouble getting time off for one week of vacation.

    2. The can’t fire all the men because women need somebody to do the dirty, difficult, and dangerous jobs.

        1. No, there were actually some well-run whorehouses that were run by a “madam” who was an ex-whore herself.
          And there was a well-known brothel in Chicago that was run by two sisters.

      1. I noticed that the article HAD to include a picture of the writer/business owner while she was wearing a low-cut dress that exposed her cleavage; it didn’t strike me as very business-like or professional.

      2. Interesting points from my reading of the article.
        1: None of the woman wanted to take a cut in pay in exchange for something else, like better work environment or options in the company; something that would have given the others that were hired a vested interest in seeing the company do well instead of taking their salary and leaving the company dry.
        2: How is this legal for her to advertise a woman only company? In the United States, there would have EEOC problems and probably a lawsuit, even if the company stayed under 50 people.
        3: How the hell were her employees able to buy or get gifts like the 900L purse? (About $1,350 USD)
        4: When they moved offices, why was one of the woman given a free parking space by the landlord?
        Is this like that video clip where some British woman were getting gifts and money from men with the clear expectation the men would get nothing in return?
        (I can’t remember what they called this stupidity. I wanted to go to Logan airport, get on the next flight to Heathrow, find one of those idiot men, and ask them WTF is wrong with you, just before I ‘dope slapped’ him in the head?)
        [ I found it later, they call it ‘rinsing guys’
        http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2145249/Sex-Lies-Rinsing-Guys-Meet-women-trawling-internet-rich-men.html
        I think it would be interesting to see how the 33 year old mother of two is doing in a few years who, “she can’t imagine life any other way” ]
        5: Why the hell did she sell her two cars trying to save the business, after she had already fronted the company 100,000L (about $150,000 USD) and it was clear the whole thing was a ‘train wreck’.

      3. This article is the single greatest refutation of feminism I’ve ever read. This should be circulated throughout colleges and workplaces.
        What gets me is that I’ve never had a single problem from the men in a workplace, ever. All drama came from women and if ignored would just dissapear in a few hours.

        1. I’ve read many stories like this. Women realize they’d rather work with men than women. Always citing the same thing — women creating drama and engaging in stupid gossip.
          Don’t worry. Female business owners who see this too … they’ll be targeted by feminism. I saw something about a year ago where feminist are targeting female business owners for not putting women in high title positions.

  31. So if men are better at something instead of rising to their level she’d rather them come down to ours? If women can do anything men can do why not just become better negotiators?

    1. That would require effort. Women have an entitled mentality. Everything should be given, not earned.

  32. “Egalitarianism” Women and the left use language as camouflage. None of it is meant to carry any real meaning.

    1. i say this all the time. They just make up words–cis-gendered, heteronormative. They can’t make it in the real world, only academia and the arts.

      1. And they have done so to good effect, even those that criticize the agenda do so while accepting the lefts definitions of “equality” “sexism” “racism” which leaves any criticism or challenge ineffective. We will never counter their stranglehold on public opinion until we counter their dishonest definitions. Any attempt to define an egalitarian society as anything other than a meritocracy is a foul and needs to be rejected

      2. They can’t make it in the real world, they destroyed academia and the arts.
        Fixed it for you

  33. This is sure to run the company into the ground in the long run, so just imagine if feminists get to run the country. Feminism, like it’s sister ideology socialism, is based on dogma and blind faith rather than pragmatism and facts.
    However, she is sure to be kicked out before the owners let that happen. If they don’t; good riddance to the company.

  34. The constitution protects the means, NOT the ends.
    It is a document that makes opportunity equal, NOT results.
    These two sentences fly over the heads of every uber a gauche useful idiot and prog politician out there.
    It is the natural and narrowed interpretation of the Declaration of Independence, which lists WHY our rights exist and just who grants them. (God)
    The DOI lists life liberty and the PURSUIT of happiness as rights, the Constitution lists life and liberty but does not list happiness…why? Because happiness is NOT a right…the PURSUIT of it is aka the means to obtain happiness are protected but not the ends. There would be no real way to legally protect someone’s “right” to happiness. It would prove disastrous, since virtually anyone could sue everyone else for depriving them of the “right” to be happy.
    Unfortunately, many on the left make such incredibly farcical arguments that it leads me to conclude that they have written an additional amendment into the constitution: the right of happiness.
    Ben Franklin said it best: “Happiness isn’t a right, you have to obtain that for yourself.”

  35. Does she even know what the difference is between equity and equality?
    One is fairness, the other is mental disorder
    If the aim is equity then the better negotiator deserves more than someone inferior

    1. “Does she even know what the difference is between equity and equality?”
      I think you answered your own question in your last line.

  36. Reddit CEO lollllll
    So she gets to be in charge of an online chatroom. I’m not knocking reddit, I read it when I’m bored sometimes. But it’s basically just a few servers that people post stuff to. Just like Disqus. Yet these women feel they are in huge positions of power when they get to “run” these firms. How does reddit make money anyway? But she is truly getting off on her “power” — just look at the photo– she is loving every minute of attention and faux power that she thinks she has.
    Haven’t you noticed how companies like Hewlett Packard (popularized the laser printer), ebay (most popular online auction) and Reddit (chat room) are created by men, and then women are put in charge and run them into the ground. HP is struggling to find a market after Carly Fiorini, Ebay is nowhere near as prominent as it used to be after Meg Whitman (when’s the last time you used it), and Reddit, well, it has nowhere to go but down.

    1. Reddit.
      Lemme see. Solving world hunger by innovating food production techniques? No.
      Researching & implementing groundbreaking new technology in electronic communication? No.
      Researching cures or at least effective treatments for major diseases? No.
      Producing educational programs or materials? No.
      Verdict for Reddit? Let it die a natural death.

  37. Laying the structural roots for underachievement. As the Japanese corporate management saying goes, a fish starts to rot from the head first. Good news for her competitors.
    ‘And the Great Reddit Vaginal Masque of Death held sway over all as the clock struck midnight’…

  38. “We ask people what they think about diversity, and we did weed people out because of that.”
    Wow. What a fucking joke!
    You know something? The left has become nothing but segregationist. They’re obsessed with putting people in boxes based on their skin color and sexual orientation.
    Gentlemen: I guarantee if Hillary wins 2016 … the blatant anti-male legislation masked in PC names like “Equal Pay” and “Yes means Yes” will be mind boggling. There’s little doubt Equal Pay legislation will be passed — this will ensure a woman who works 38 hours is paid the same as a guy who puts in 50. It will also “empower” women to sue companies with ease. Then of course there’s the proliferation of manufactured rape. I have no doubt Hillary will use the Columbia Mattress cunt to push the bogus 1 in 5 stat. This will all be in an endeavor to pass Yes means Yes at a national level.

    1. There’s plenty of diversity on reddit.. there’s literally a subreddit for anything and everything you can think of.
      But the ironic thing? It’s an anonymous message board so you don’t know the sex/race/age/ etc. of anyone posting there. So why would it matter in the office holding the reddit servers?

      1. Years ago when I lived in Seattle, I did some research thing at the U of Washington. I remember the question of “Do you think equality can be achieved” was asked.
        I bluntly answered, “NO.”
        I knew I’d leave the lil PC/ Social Justice Wankers stunned. Then I tried to explain it to them: In order for your idea of equality to foster, you have to take away from someone else. Thus there’s no way true equality can become reality. Of course these pathetic pieces of shit didn’t get what I was saying. The idea of taking from men and giving to women … or placing more responsibility on men than women is equality to them.
        We’re about to watch this be done to men in the name of promoting “women’s equality” courtesy of the Hillary Campaign.

        1. You know how everything has been “racist” since Obama has become President and race relationships have gone to crap in this country? Well, when Clinton becomes President, we are going to see the same thing, but with “sexism”. No one will be able to disagree with her because “that’s sexist!”. See Rand Paul for example. The media is already after him.

        2. Yea. I’m well aware. When I saw the MSM begin to attack Rand as a SEXIST, I shook my head. I knew this tactic was coming — but they wasted 0 time working it.
          I’ve read her campaign has come up with “coded sexism.” Google and take a look at this shit. Essentially if a GOP opponent uses certain, normal words to describe Hillary, he’ll be targeted as a SEXIST. It goes beyond using certain words too. Asking questions can label you as a sexist! I have to think such a tactic will backfire. Firstly) People are not going to put up with a candidate who thinks they’re above questions and is simply “owed” the nomination. Secondly) People are FED-UP with everything being turned into racism/sexism.
          I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a glorious display of fireworks and implosion by Hillary during the campaign. She can’t hide how out of touch she is and visibly looks annoyed having to answer questions. She truly comes across that she’s OWED the presidency and the American People are an annoying obstacle to it. Just wait til she falls behind in Iowa and N.H. She’ll have a melt down and start screaming how “American’s don’t deserve her!”

        3. Yea. I absolutely love that one. Use her own words against her.
          If she gets the nomination, I’m going to get this AL Bundy Gem in opposition to Hillary

        4. She would be right “Americans don’t deserve her!” – No matter how bad they become they still do not deserve her piss poor ways.

    2. Hilary becoming president will be the beginning of the most annoying, entitled age of feminist behavior the world has ever known. Look at how black people acted when Barack was elected and he isnt even pro-black. Hilary is pro-female and will be used to make speech after speech to further brainwash young girls with made up statistics and catchy you-go-girl rhetoric.

      1. Agreed. Everything will analized through the lense of gender “fairness” if hillary gets elected. Anybody who challenges her will be labeled misogynist.

      2. Which is why it is essential for Hillary to become President.
        We will finally get the male uprising that is long overdue.

    3. A lot of MGTOW value their own lives and time so perhaps the woman who get “equal pay” for 38 hours will only get the same as the man who works 32 (pay cuts for failing businesses)

  39. The first thought that immediately springs to mind is “Who gives a shit?” Reddit produces absolutely nothing of value or significance as far as I’m concerned.

  40. If what is written in the article is true, it`s not gonna help women to not allow salary negotiation. It`s true that on average men are better negotiators than women when is comes to salary but women should learn and improve their skill instead.

  41. If you males really think hiring is about picking the best person, time to wake the piss up.
    Firms dont operate in a social vacuum.Most companies now are blatant hypergamy camps. The point of a Modern Matriarchy firm is NOT to produce the best product or profit, but to generate the best welfare consistent with pro-female interests.
    A man seeking work needs to prepare himself the way the obsolete Pickup Artists used to prepare for sarging-peackcock with a beautiful but substanceless resume, speak about putting the social group first, and dress like youre going to F-close Anna Kendrick. Either fit in with the hypergamy mold, or dont get hired.

    1. As a male, avoid the yahoos that are out of new ideas and have resorted to bringing in a woman to manage the decline. You don’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell with HR in that kind of situation.

    2. Which basically means act like a pussy-whipped mediocre idiot or fake a foreign accent.

    3. bullseye. you gotta learn to play the corporate game. keep true to your red pill ideas but never NEVER disseminate fully in mixed corpo company.

    1. there’s a website for you www. bookwormbitches.com
      Dudes splooging on librarian chicks with glasses…

  42. Imagine how bad it must be as a male to work at reddit now, with pao having a huge chip on her shoulder and resentful of any employee with a penis. Who is going to be the first male to question anything she does?

    1. In this job market (strong), such a man can easily leave for a less misandric pasture.
      The manginas who stay deserve what they get.

  43. “Ultimately, the only fair way for a society to function—contra the claims of the left—is to oppose egalitarianism.”
    Matt, how? What do you propose?
    Reddit is a private company. If their policy serves them well, I don’t give a damn fuck. If not, hey – everybody is free to shoot himself. I’m rather concerned with the mobs that roam the street; some of them we call police.

  44. I wonder if she will try to shut down the Men’s Rights Reddit. That could backfire on ‘feminists’ spectacularly.

  45. Sounds like fine logic by me. So because women get flexible work hours, lower work loads, and less business travel I can get that now too, right?

  46. Ellen Pao is just another gleeful, uber-empowered, moneygrubbing Cultural Terrorist. Another Woman-of-Color totalitarian. There have been an endless parade of them crushing and destroying males over the past forty years, bleating about how oppressed and victimized they are, while being awarded careers, money, and power they haven’t earned. Oh, and while electing Obie and Hillie to assure that The Beatdown continues uninterrupted.
    Ellen is very much the mainstream of the institutional U.S. Her leering, ugly, smug face is the Face of New Amerika.
    Cheers.

      1. Hey didn’t Fletch play the Network Executive in that movie ‘masked and anonymous’? I mean hasn’t central casting already used this guy?
        They say The Aliens have already arrived and looking at Happy Couple Buddy and Ellen, hm. Anyway it’s real comforting to learn these folks are in charge of American finance, culture, and media. . . what’s the name of that website that’s always going on about Reptiles? :O)
        Oh look! the Harpy Cupple met at the Aspen Institute for Applied Mindskrubbing. And they say romance is dead!
        Cheers.

      2. So this hyper-Marxist Asian woman married a black man. Ha ha ha. They deserve each other. She’s almost too over the top for me to wish her on any white dude, even an SJW b!tchboy.

        1. Yes, but not just any black man- a black man who used to identify as gay, had a relationship with a man, and used the race card whenever he doesn’t get what he wants. Currently in some rather financial dire straits.

  47. I said the cunt was ugly, why did my comment get deleted?
    Some guy then replied she is a five, to which I reply how sad is it that in the states she’d get above a three just for not being fat?
    I love having a big dick. It means that no matter what hot girls want this.

    1. In asia she’s below average in looks. But just being not fat in america might make her 5 out of 10 to thirsty betas. Not my type and i’m thirsty.

  48. But a better negotiator (a big no-no at Reddit) will negotiate better contracts for your business, therefore saving you money with which to better improve employee compensation as a whole. This chick get her MBA out of a gumball machine? Why would you not pay a better employee a fraction more to net better results overall?

  49. Who does this lunatic answer to? I would love to hear her explain to them why it’s a good idea for the company to pay employees MORE than they are willing to work for.

  50. Pretty much shows why she didn’t make “partner” at her last job. On paper she looks good but she doesn’t have what it takes to be a boss.

  51. if i was applying for a job there i would negotiate regardless of their policy. that’s how i got my current job.
    HR idiot: we don’t negotiate compensation.
    Raith: i see. well, i thoroughly enjoyed the technical interview with guy1, guy2, and guy3. i’m excited about what i can bring. however, i need $x in order to move from my current employer to your team.
    guy1, guy2, and guy3 helped hr idiot navigate the process of making it happen.
    that said, knowing the bat-shit reasoning behind ms reddit’s policy, i wouldn’t want to join that outfit at all. toxic bullshit will wear down your soul.

  52. More excellent news for ROK. Reddit and will join the ranks of Cracked and other ridiculous has-been SJW echo chambers, while ROK will continue to gain regular readers.

  53. Holy crap, RoK. Do you really need to show multiple pictures of that donkey face every time you post an article about her? It’s enough to kill my boner for a whole week every time I see it. I’m almost beginning to think someone here has a secret crush on her…

    1. This is gold, if one is trying to stop masturbating to porn. Just look at this: instant boner killer.

  54. WHO CARES let people hire more woman and watch their businesses crumble as a result.

  55. It is amusing how this approach ultimately displays sexism towards women. The message is:
    “You are inferior and can’t compete, can’t negotiate, we don’ think you are ever capable of ever doing so to a satisfactory degree. So we are going to remove the few mainstays that guarantee a certain level of performance. And when it all goes to shit, it will be your fault.”
    I will be interested to see how much of the “sisterhood” remains when it does all go to shit. The term “fuck all” comes to mind.
    Well done Matt, I’m glad this is being written about and highlighted.

    1. That is only because she does not know it exists, since she doesn’t do any real work at Reddit.

  56. This article does paint a picture of red pill logic being entirely lost within the western world which I don’t believe is quite true… yet. Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott has his red pill views ‘exposed’ in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOPsxpMzYw4 There is hope for us yet as long as we don’t allow red pill views to be ridiculed by the mainstream as they are being at present.

        1. Actually it is, this particular youtube character has made several videos sarcastically making fun of the opinions of the “matriarchy”. It’s why he tries to fem his voice up, but it is satire. He basically makes fun of the feminazis and their views.

  57. I stumbled on reddit through this website and subscribed to OKC and TRP. I think this is the final nail in the coffin. The OKC people are a bunch of SJW, judgmental fucks while the wheels at TRP are completely ideological, doctrinaire and just as judgmental from their own little point of view. I get more balanced opinions here, but reddit has just lost a pair of eyeballs that they can make money from.

  58. ” In particular, a society that forces men and women to deny their own inherent differences is one that will punish masculine creativity and success.”
    Yeah, and meanwhile traditional femininity dies the same slow death.

  59. This is a good thing because Ellen Pao will be the source of her own undoing. Follow me: Talented males, especially in tech/finance will see that she is a ball busting idiot who does not know business. Said males with talent will get scooped up by other companies who pay them more and negotiate. Reddit turns into an all female diversity firm, and then it tumbles because no talented males are there anymore. Ellen Pao gets canned, Feminist supporters who did not take a stand against her at Reddit are terminated or bankrupted, and we start fresh again.

    1. But then they’ll just act like the cockroaches that they are: they will go and invade new ‘territory’ (companies).

  60. the only thing worse than working in an office full of chicks is getting taxed on the money you earn working in an office full of chicks. i can guarantee, even if you are a chick you won’t be hired unless you think like the herd of chicks in an office. i’d rather stay home and clean house.

  61. Reddit is in large part a leftist hive mind anyway. This will take away the children who refuse to grow up’s infinite cycle of confirmation bias, ironically by their own machinations.

  62. Princeton. Harvard Business School. Harvard Law School. Pao has attended some elite institutions, yet she’s an idiot. What a waste of space. The seats she took up should’ve went to male students.

  63. This is seriously awesome. Anyone who wants to start up a new and improved version of reddit: this is your chance.
    That SJWs have taken over reddit, and they absolutely WILL drive it into the ground. Jsut like the Eich affair gave Pale Moon a chance to take ground from Firefox, this is a business opportunity for someone who is hungry and has hungry backers.
    “Pale Moon” is a lighter faster browser based on the Mozilla toolkit.

  64. Boys, Silicon Valley has basically decided it does not want to compete. As programmers, we can do our work from literally anywhere, we can even do it from the states if our company is in a country that doesn’t feel like committing economic suicide.
    These guys want to play these sorts of retarted games? I say GREAT! Holy shit, this is a gift fellas!

    1. Yep. The local geeks (in NZ: we care about how you code and nothing else) are licking their lips and hiring more people. Because we will Own all your bases, if your code crappier gets.

    1. Yeah, jealous of the white guys going after the attractive Asians. You know how Asian bitches have mad white fever, lol.

  65. Reddit is not an institution, as far as I am concerned, it can burn to the ground and will be replaced by another easily created site. There was Digg, and Digg failed, and Reddit took it’s place. Somebody else will fill in the niche.
    The only thing worth saving are TRP archives.

  66. Not sure I would have given away the end of the story (seemed unnecessary) but good example.

  67. It’s “eponymous,” not “titular.”
    “Titular” means “in title or name only.”
    “Eponymous” refers to a character in a work who the work is named after.

  68. Ellen Pao…wow. #smh
    I’mma let her find out the hard way about an all-female workplace on her own.

    1. I had not thought of that angle. That’s gonna be some see TV. They are going to have to hose down the offices after all of that back stabbing

  69. If there’s anything close to actual evil in this world, it truly is this sickening attitude of deliberately working against human nature and punishing genuine merit. As if it couldn’t be any clearer already that these degenerates are opposed to actual progress being made.

  70. Your link about physical standards is to a university ROTC group, not actual military policy.

  71. This chick just needs to get it stretched out and coated. She just wants to feel her eyes roll back, convulse with siezures, and then spend the next hour fumbling for a napkin.
    Look fellas just give it right and keep it sticky out there

  72. Reminds me of Sweden.. What is the parallel? Well it seems Sweden scraped it’s university quotas. What was happening is that men were still applying to STEM as the vast majority. Meanwhile the males who were rejected in STEM in order to leave spaces open for women, stated filling up the quotas in more traditionally female dominated fields like social work and early childhood education which resulted in too many women not being accepted into university.. Rather than admit their policy was working.. It was.. It just wasn’t working in the way they thought it would.. They scrapped it and there are no more quotas at Swedish Unis. It proves time and again it’s not about equality but rather advantage.. Any area where males have an advantage will be targeted.. Even if it means giving up on helping women.. Because modern feminism isn’t even about women… It’s about men.

  73. Every HR manager knows that women negotiate worse for the few jobs that leave some significant room for wage negotiations. The main reason why most corporations are leaving that option even open is because they know that someone who negotiates better is sometimes more high-potential or will also negotiate better with clients.
    And it is wrong to assume that women will get a bigger cut of the pie in this case. Not women, but the corporations will eat the pie. So essentially women like PAO are saying: “If we are not getting any pie, then no one is getting it. Let the cash go to the company owners – the poor 0,01-0,001%, because those guys can barely afford their super-yachts.” Also the assumption is correct that true high-potentials will go to the competition, but in our times the oligarchy is already deeply entrenched and a company hiring PAO is a mad one anyway.

  74. If this is her logically reasoning what will feminists bitch about when it comes to the myth about women getting a raw deal in regards to pay? Secondly is it me or is she really ugly? I thought I read somewhere that she had an affair with a co worker.

  75. I suspect this is just an attempt to reduce operating costs dressed in social justice drag.
    Reddit has had a chronic problem with profitability. The old CEO Yishan Wong even got into bizarre charity schemes towards the end of his posting there, and eventually resigned because he disagreed with the corporate office location, which in the SJ-SF area has a lot to do with operating costs.
    Reddit continues to have venture capital funding, so if you’re the CEO you’d better have a good reason to be shedding your top-end programmers and operations staff, less your stakeholders demand you get the boot. Encapsulating your schemes in social experiments do just that.
    If they did something like move to Austin, Seattle, Vancouver, or Salt Lake, I having a sneaking suspicion this anti-negotiation mantra would be shelved.
