This Tweet From a 'Huffington Post' Editor Shows the Problem With White Feminism

Writer Andrew Hansen

Huffington Post Executive Editor Liz Heron tweeted the photo of an editors' meeting. It was intended as a humble brag — well, maybe not so humble — about gender diversity among the ranks of editors at the company.

When women take over it’s never diverse and inclusive. The hypocrisy is astonishing.

Thank you, OP, for linking to a tweet and article from 2016.

There are Asian-looking women at the table too, I think? But I don't even know what your complaint is, OP - the editors look exactly like the target demographic. in 2016. HuffPost is not a newspaper. It's like InTouch but with a soft political agenda so everyone can feel nice and informed. Is there a picture of how the HuffPost editors look now? (If HuffPost even still exists).

This is from 7 years ago.

Trolls here are just pathetic lately.

R6 so what you’re saying is we should move on and never look back at the past?

Well of course it's not actually the past r7. That picture perfectly sums up the fact that a lot of people who believe in "diversity" don't actually believe in it, at all, and that's not just something that evaporated a few years ago. It's very much a part of the world today, that for some diversity activists, the goal isn't diversity at all. It's role reversal. We should basically have the Mad Men office, but with women in charge instead of men. In the 1950s and early 1960s, that would have been all men at that table. What the person who originally posted that is saying is that, isn't it great that now it's all women. No diversity, just role reversal.

R7, if you want in on diversity, you can't be serious that this is correct. Is huff post public?

If Ariana wants to flood her boards with women, that is her prerogative.

But it is the opposite of diversity.
