What's become very apparent to me since WuFlu made all our meetings remote forced me to interact with people I usually wouldn't is how feminized the office has become. It's hard to describe, but it's most noticeable when I see people in our site meetings chat feel-good empty platitudes and praise at each other for what seem like very non-noteworthy accomplishments. And what's worse is it's starting to infect people I've known and worked with for years who I know under normal circumstances wouldn't act like this.
Our last company-wide meeting had a title that made it sound like I was going to prom instead of a serious business meeting.
I don't see much of a future here for myself and people like me, to be honest. Probably for the best; better to build up our own institutions instead of support ones run by those who hate us.
Yeah, starting up your own company doesn't mean shit. Here in Minneapolis, there's Muslim-owned Middle Eastern restaurant called Holy Land. It's one of the most well-known and has been around for ages. A few months ago, they immediately lost the lease to their uptown location because somebody dug up some anti-black post the owner's daughter made 12 or 13 years ago. This was right when the Fentanyl Floyd shit started going down. The only reason they have their original location is because they owned it outright. Nobody and nothing is safe, really.
