White males need not apply.
A Buzzfeed Canada senior writer indicated that she’s looking for freelance writers for the online publication. But if you happen to be a white male, don’t waste your breath.
Scaachi Koul indicated what she was looking for — and not looking for — in a series of tweets.
1. Would you like to write longform for @BuzzFeedCanada? WELL YOU CAN. We want pitches for your Canada-centric essays & reporting.

OK, so far so good. But there was more.
2. @BuzzFeedCanada would particularly like to hear from you if you are not white and not male.
— Scaachi (@Scaachi) February 18, 2016
Emails three through seven explained what she was looking for and how to submit pitches. In email eight, she returned to the white men issue.
8. Last thing:
IF YOU’RE A WHITE MAN UPSET THAT WE ARE LOOKING MOSTLY FOR NON-WHITE NON-MEN
I DON’T CARE ABOUT YOU
GO WRITE FOR MACLEAN’S

Then, Koul cracked the door open a tiny bit for white men — did she get a warning from the legal department?
.@danspeerin White men are still permitted to pitch, I will read it, I will consider it. I’m just less interested because, ugh, men.

She apparently believes white men are high maintenance.
white men
get huffy
when you don’t actively encourage white men
to do stuff
because white men
think
they
are
owed
everything— Scaachi (@Scaachi) February 18, 2016
.@christian_manco it’s not discrimination
it’s boosting other voices
i do not owe you anything— Scaachi (@Scaachi) February 18, 2016
HA HA ANYWAY BAN MEN LITERALLY THROW THEM ALL IN THE GARBAGE

And to make her point, she added a visual aid.

People couldn’t believe what they were reading, and tweeted back to her:
@Scaachi @BuzzFeedCanada lol race and gender of sender more important than if it’s good or not. Buzzfeed you actually pay this woman?
— The Unpopular Truth (@TUnpopularTruth) February 18, 2016
@Scaachi @BuzzFeedCanada you are declaring a gender/race preference in your job search publicly?

@Scaachi @BuzzFeedCanada Nothing turns people pro white more than the people putting out constant anti-white stuff. Keep it up guys!

It was only a matter of time before someone brought this up.
@Scaachi @BuzzFeedCanada what if I AM one but I dont IDENTIFY as one?

Back in the day, signs appeared in and around Boston proclaiming “Help Wanted, no Irish need apply.”
Apparently “back in the day” has returned.
