WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh September 26th, 2017

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Hey, we have a surprise report from the New York Times.

0:00:03.400 --> 0:00:06.560
<v Speaker 1>Some in Silicon Valley think the tech world's push for

0:00:06.720 --> 0:00:10.000
<v Speaker 1>gender equality has gone too far. The New York Times

0:00:10.000 --> 0:00:12.559
<v Speaker 1>says that Silicon Valley has long been identified as one

0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:16.120
<v Speaker 1>of the most hostile work environments for women, even though

0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:18.439
<v Speaker 1>the place is dominated by liberals. And I go figure that,

0:00:18.760 --> 0:00:21.919
<v Speaker 1>so human resources departments are trying to equalize everything, and

0:00:21.960 --> 0:00:25.680
<v Speaker 1>the result is that Silicon Valley is a hostile work

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:30.440
<v Speaker 1>environment for men. And there's a backlash. When Google fired

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:33.360
<v Speaker 1>at twenty eight year old millennial engineer for posting his

0:00:33.440 --> 0:00:38.200
<v Speaker 1>frustrations about NonStop diversity training, it sparked a new subculture.

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:42.239
<v Speaker 1>A movement focusing on men's rights is quickly emerging. The

0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Times interviewed one guy who says the diversity requirement to

0:00:45.320 --> 0:00:48.400
<v Speaker 1>created a witch hunt atmosphere. He was interviewed from a

0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:51.720
<v Speaker 1>sound proof booth out of fear he might be overheard.

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:56.120
<v Speaker 1>He said, the reaction to anyone who voices incorrect opinions

0:00:56.200 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 1>on gender is almost religious. It's almost zelatry now. Until recently,

0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:04.560
<v Speaker 1>men opposed to Silicon Valley's diversity obsession were considered fringe.

0:01:05.040 --> 0:01:08.839
<v Speaker 1>Now even investors are beginning to pay attention to their complaints.

0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:12.759
<v Speaker 1>Recent studies show the line for what is considered sexual

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:16.360
<v Speaker 1>harassment is too easy to cross, and the tech world's

0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 1>goal of gender parity might be too extreme. I have

0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:23.920
<v Speaker 1>a solution. High are the best qualified, regardless of gender. Simple.

0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:26.399
<v Speaker 1>But as I said, the place is run by liberals

0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:34.960
<v Speaker 1>and libs. Merit is divisive, not cool. H
