[DISPUTED] No black women or latino staff in our venue! KCON LA specifically wants their female staff to be Asian and White!

here come the wokey²

Wtf?!

It's one thing to have a preference, but the fact they have a whole AI system to keep all the other POC from applying. I-...

I kinda hate NMIXX is performing there now. Like, that's so bad...

Happy I never invested my money in this event even though some years I was tempted.

And, I wonder, are all Asians accepted or just East Asian?

Like, if your skin tone is on the darker side, will the AI still be triggered.

Edit: Oh, I didn't read the rest. You can still apply, but they notify you that you don't meet the preference. Also, looks like the response is triggered by choosing the ethnicity and not the photo. My bad. My reading comprehension glitched at the audacity.

is this kcon's own bias or what they perceive will attract more consumers?

racist either way but the second case is even darker

This tells you how ignorant and stupid their HR/Recruiting Dept is. They can make hiring decisions based on race/ethnicity without telling the world that’s what they are doing.

atp the title is misleading and should be changed

I literally cannot fathom why that would be a thing. That's really random and weird. I can't imagine a single reason why the ethnicity of staff would be important.

can't wait to attend upcoming kkkcon la event. never been to one of those so i'm hoping it'll be a good time. i hope someday kkkcon holds an event in my country too so i can apply for a job and get to watch the show for free. these things aren't cheap

sorry but i couldn't resist the pun lol. i'm not one of those woke race baiter clout chaser types though. just goofing around. hopefully, this whole thing gets resolved fast but even that might not be enough to appease the mob

How very typical of akp and y'all claim to stan pocs

do you not realize people are stating it is FAKE?

standing up for POC does not mean fighting nonexistent enemies

i dont know why you wanna jump to conclusions as if you're sitting in their office and know everything

but u do u

Please, it’s obviously an excuse. It was not supposed to be published like that but the instructions most probably come from them.

At least now, black and hispanic fans know what they think of them.

prove it

nah i don't believe that at all. but u do u

This is not first time something like that happens. What probably happened is that the ad was published exactly as given instead of hiding the discriminatory terms.

Quote from ThePhantomThief

prove it

There’s already a proof it’s the ad. Now KCON must prove it’s false. They should explained exactly what happened and say who is responsible. Not publish some vague statement.

interesting

this a pet peeve of mine but can people stop using latinos as a race it's an ethnicity and latinos can be white too.

they should say caucasian it would be more accurate

Horseshoe theory is no longer a theory, some people have gone so far to the left they actively discriminate and segregate because they believe each race should be treated different due to their skin colour and the impact it has had on their lives.

Quote from Daisy_Queen

How on earth is this leftist horseshoe theory if people of color are the ones being discriminated against?

Because it's been narrowed down to being appealing to specific cultures and so to be representative of that they only hire said cultures, even though this is insane that's the thought process behind it.

dont think any leftist tells you to cater to specifically whites and asians lmao

I'm happy to hold my hands up and say I was wrong if it turns out to be fake or that's not the reason behind it, but it's pretty easy to point to said reason I mentioned as the reason behind this sort of thing, it does happen.

As usual in this type of threads, some users are already showing their true colors independently of the fact that Kcon gave the order or not.
